The Palace Fan 3,299 Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Gabriel Batistuta has warned that Argentina can’t rely on Lionel Messi at the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia™ like they did so abundantly in its qualifiers. La Albiceleste managed merely seven points from a possible 24 without ‘The Atomic Flea’ in their preliminary campaign. With him they seized 21 points from a possible 30, culminating in a come-from-behind 3-1 victory in Ecuador that ensured Argentina didn’t miss out on their first World Cup since Mexico 1970. “Messi is a player who can play in any team,” said Batistuta. “I’d always want him in my team, but depending on a player doesn’t seem fair to me, for with the level of the national teams we are going to face at the World Cup, depending on a player is very dangerous.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirBalon 2,692 Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Unless there’s a lot missing from that interview, what Batistuta says is evident to people that don’t even know about football. Relying on one person in a team environment, be it in sport or anything in life is always going to be a suffering battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
