Messi refuses to be subbed

[cluckluc2]

He is turning into an absolute tool. I'd make him sit on the subs bench for the next match but he seems untouchable.

Good that he wants to stay on however manager should have had some bollocks and stuck with his own decision.

 

[Arkle]

I can't see anyone leaving him on the bench for what's now a key Champion's League game or, indeed, the minor matter of el Classico next weekend. He does seem to believe that he's more important than the coach, though.

I hope that Connor and Fletch don't turn into prima donnas like this.

Always been one for me. Love to lamp him one. Arrogant tosser

No excuse no matter who you are. The manager makes the decisions.

 

[rednwhiteftm]

Of course, he picks himself every week doesn't he. If the best player in the world wants to play then he plays you have no say in the matter unless he's injured.

 

[Freddie the Greek]

Cristiano wouldn't do that

 

[Daz...]

How embarrassing it must be as a manager to have to go to the official to change the number on the board as your player refuses to come off.

 

[Paxton]

Can he still go down for tax fraud or whatever he's been accused of?

 

[bagpiperay]

Cristiano wouldn't do that

No of course not. He would just have the biggest tantrum in the world

 

[Trauntrian]

Didn't look like the manager had made a decision yet. Looked like he called out to Messi and asked if he wanted to come off and Messi's shaken his head and indicated he wanted to stay on.

I remember Gordon Strachan doing this when he was player manager for Coventry against Arsenal in 1997, his assistant wanted to bring him off but he refused and stayed on .

If you watch the video, there is no evidence Messi was due to be subbed.

It’s not like the SMB to let facts get in the way of a good old rant.

Hopefully he'll get it off Pepe & Ramos this weekend coming
