Quote

Fatherhood changes you completely. If things didn't go my way before, I became withdrawn and didn't want to see or listen to anyone. Now, when I arrive home, I see my son and everything is OK. He's the most important thing to me now.

It is not coincidence that at Barcelona we have low-key lifestyles and we have been successful. We know we are football players and not movie stars.
Lionel Messi
Image
I've always really just liked football, and I've always devoted a lot of time to it. When I was a kid, my friends would call me to go out with them, but I would stay home because I had practice the next day. I like going out, but you have to know when you can and when you can't.
Lionel Messi
Image
I have fun like a child in the street. When the day comes when I'm not enjoying it, I will leave football.
Lionel Messi
Image
The truth is that I don't have a favourite goal. I remember important goals more than I do favourite goals, like goals in the Champions League where I had the opportunity to have scored in both finals I have played in. Finals in the World Cup or Copa del Rey are the ones that have stayed with me for longer or that I remember more.

It's scoring goals that's great, whether against Brazil or anybody else.

Ronaldo was my hero. I loved watching players like Zidane, Ronaldinho and Rivaldo, but Ronaldo was the best striker I've ever seen. He was so fast he could score from nothing and could shoot the ball better than anyone I've ever seen.

Barcelona is my life. They have brought me to where I am today. I could not leave, I don't want to leave. I know the Premier League is very good. But I cannot see myself playing in England because my heart is with Barcelona, always.
Lionel Messi
Image
I never had any problems with my height. I was always the smallest kid, at school and in my teams.
Lionel Messi
Image
Sometimes you have to accept you can't win all the time.
Lionel Messi
Image
It's crazy to say that after three games [without a goal] I was in crisis. I do not care whether I score or not, what matters is that the team win and continue to do so.
Lionel Messi
Image
I just get on with my game and let the referees do their job.
Lionel Messi
Image
The truth is my idea has been to always stay at Barcelona and see out the rest of my career here. Like I always say, one doesn't know what can happen in the future, but if it were up to me to decide, I would stay at Barcelona for the rest of my career.

You have to fight to reach your dream. You have to sacrifice and work hard for it.

You have to show up in the World Cup, and in the World Cup anything can happen.

We have demonstrated that we are the best, I'm also happy because everyone seems to enjoy our football, whether or not they are Barca fans. All over the world, I've heard people saying that they have been enchanted by us. This type of football deserves to be rewarded with titles.
Lionel Messi

I never think about the play or visualize anything. I do what comes to me at that moment. Instinct. It has always been that way.
Lionel Messi

Today I am the happiest man in the world, my son was born and thanks to God for this gift.

I don't need the best hairstyle or the best body. Just give me a ball at my feet and I'll show you what I can do.
