While no fan likes the concept of load management, even Lionel Messi occasionally needs time on the sidelines. That's just part of being human.
."I don't believe it's anything new or anything worse than what they had before. It's fatigue. We don't think it's a muscular injury. That's also from a conversation that I just had with [Messi]. But we have to continue being careful and we'll look at him the next few days."
"There is no chance they will be there on Sunday. I know we have a final to play [next Wednesday] but they won't go near the pitch if they can't play," Martino added.As mentioned above, it can be easy to look at Lionel Messi as something of a superhero. Despite his seemingly ordinary stature, the Argentine star is one of the greatest players to ever set foot on a soccer pitch; you could also argue he is the singular GOAT, but that's a conversation for a different day.
Is it easy to say playing soccer is kid's stuff and he should tough it out? Is it easy to say when people are paying hundreds of dollars for a ticket that he should do it for the fans and take the pitch? To be clear, fans are essential to professional sports. That's especially true in global soccer, where situations like the proposed European Super League have come across as commercial ventures that run counter to the feelings of actual supporters. With that being said, though, having sentiment dictate team selection is a bridge too far.
