SHOULD MESSI LEAVE BARCELONA??

Greatest player of all time(G.O.A.T) , none other than Lionel Andres Messi . A prolific goal scorer and a creative playmaker who is outstanding,out of this world in every sense of footballing term he is a pure genius. Hell a lot of joy he brings to the football fans all around the globe by his magical run , dribbling and by his smart tricks and one of those little piece of magic out of his hat when he defy all the top class defenders in the world by putting them an awe, He is not a human he is something else. When it comes to one-club players in top-flight football, few names can match the impact of Lionel Messi at Barcelona. He was the teen prodigy, he joined barcelona at the age of 13, who became a global legend, all within the confines of the Catalan club. From honing his skill at La Masia to leading the team, the Argentine’s path to greatness was laid out in Spain and he fulfilled his destiny by becoming the most successful player for the club.

Why did Luis Suarez join Atlético Madrid?

Luis Suarez joining Athleti makes a lot of sense as he has established himself as a legend at Barcelona , and after spending many years in spain, his family is settled there and kids don't even want to go elsewhere ,so playing for athletico will terminate the chances to settle elsewhere and won't have to face problems to adapt elsewhere . But one of the major factor i see is that his friendship with messi, they are neighbours and he might not want to separate himself from Messi can be a major factor . Coming in to Simeone side ,due to less players at his position at Athleti will certainly be good for him as he will have more playing time considering that Morata will be out on loan at Juventus. Simeone is a great admirer of him, will certainly help him play his final years with joy. As a Barca fan i would've liked if he was given a great farewell ,but due to covid it's impossible. Good bye Legend 💯♥️

Also, with the introduction of inverted winger who cut in rather than be in the ‘wings’, it seems more like a favorable option. It is always used in a 4–3–3 formation in football. Qualities It is one of THE HARDEST ROLE to play in a team. This player has to pack a bunch of skillsets. The most important skills are- really good dribbling, good vision and passing and, the most important, awareness and creativity. Other skills include flair, speed, and a hella lot stamina. Quite a lot of qualities to ask for, resulting in a lesser number of these players. Advantages and Disadvantages It is a tricky position to play. The most advantage of playing a false 9 is the mar...
