"My forwards only need to run 15 meters, unless they’re either stupid or asleep" - Johan Cruyff
It's not about how much you run, it's how you position yourself, knowing when and where to make a run. While playing at Barca, both Romario and Messi were famous for running less than the rest of the players, yet, they were assisting and scoring the most. Throughout his career, Messi has been criticized for walking. After an El Clasico match between Barcelona and Real Madrid in December 2017, there was widespread coverage of the fact that Messi walked 83 percent of the roughly 5 miles he covered that game. Despite this, he scored and assisted in Barca’s 3-0 win. Messi walks better than most players run. This is the essence of the Positional play: players move together as a unit, control possession, position themselves in the high value areas, which in turn removes the need to run long distances (preserving energy in the process).

Messi performance yesterday was perhaps the worst i have ever seen from a professional player lol.. touched the ball maybe 4 times , didn't even walk, basically he was standing still the whole match lmao.
Received treatment a couple of times for his right adductor (it seemed like). But yeah it was a very uninspiring game considering he won't play another match for a long time now.

Something is going on.......!!
🚨 JUST IN: Lionel Scaloni has left Maracanã as the Argentina National Team coach, he did NOT RESIGN. He’s still the coach.
But there is anger on the part of the coach due to an internal issues (Possibly with Chiqui Tapia). There is a disagreement about some topic. [@gastonedul] 🇦🇷
❗️The players of the Argentine National Team know that Scaloni is angry about something. [@arielsenosiain]
