Speaking to Argentinian sports channel TyC Sports, Barcelona player Lionel Mesi has said that he could miss Barcelon's first league game because of a game with his national team:
"On 28 August, I will play the European Super Cup, there's no doubt about that. The problem is the next game. That's why I've already talked with Pep and Diego Maradona, to see if I can travel to Argenina immediately after the game against Shakhtar.
Luckily, Pep is a very intelligent person and we have a great relationship. We still need to sit down and talk to see what is the best for all parties."

I read the title and I thought for a second that that cramp is serious now. Scared me...
Let's hope he won't get injured there.
me too i was already thinking that this season will be full of injuries because how it started i was scared.but LOL now i´much happier
ITs fine, I think we can handle Sporting Gijon without Messi...let him go play with Argentina if thats what he wants
We can do without messi for 1 league game. Better to let him go and not risk an injury by overworking.
I say let him go but in return we should ask for a friendly mid-season when he won't be called up.
got a lil worried wen i 1st read the title lol...
but he will be fine... he got a physio from barca everytime he travels with national team...
for some reason i have a feeling Barca are gonna surprise us with a big signing we never expected... not talking about Cesc...
forgive me for dreaming big but i think maybe
Ribery, or Robben (very unlikely) or Sneider...
i wanna be surprised...
i agree Moltisanti.
but honestly,i don't want anybody get
received special treatment.
we have a internal cord.
pep, i still have photos from the barca chivas game where do i send them to again?
Last season I would have been sceptical about this because Pedro never really convinced me back then but after his great preseason, (not only statistic wise but all on overall preformance) I think he deserves his chance at being the number one replacement for Messi ahead of players like Bojan, Iniesta and Zlatan as Pedro is also the only other true RW. I am confident with Pedro starting games against teams like Gijon and I would like to see him play against all the weaker teams games so there is less chance of a Messi injury or tiredness.
ofcourse he wants to play...
Its the mother of all Classics !!!
Argentina - Brazil 05/09/09
Let him go he past on a blank check
he can go. maradona wants his full squad to play against Brazil-

We have to win the Euro Super cup. Its gonna be 3 parties for that same day.
with Zlatan we our less Messidependant.
Now we got more creativity opfront
We should let him play for Argentina . Barça can NOT afford to repeat the same fiasco we had prior to the summer Olympics !!
i'd rather have a happy and injury free messi than that super cup trophy.
i should mention he's a priceless trophy himself. the best player in the world is a barca player yay :)
Wow, I bet you scared a lot of visitors with that headline, Pep :)
I'm delighted that he's not injured until then.
So, first league match is on Monday, right? And the qualifier for Argentina is on Saturday, I think that's still enough time, isn't it? Would be a different story if the qualifier was on Wednesday.
