The Argentina international has admitted that he is still
recovering physically after a spell on the sidelines through injury, but is
confident his best form is around the corner.
Lionel Messi has taken to social media to respond to
critics who have expressed concern over his recent form for Barcelona.
The forward, 26, has failed to score in his last four
Liga appearances, something that has not occurred since April 2011, on the back
of recovering from a thigh injury.
And in a post on the social networking site Weibo, Messi
discussed Friday’s Catalan derby with Espanyol, which the Blaugrana won 1-0
thanks to an Alexis Sanchez goal, before touching on the issue surrounding his
fitness.
“Games against Espanyol are always difficult,” AS.com
reported.
“Physically, I am not 100% yet, but with games under my
belt I’m sure I’ll get into my stride.”
Barcelona play host to AC Milan in their Group H
Champions League fixture on Wednesday, with the Catalan outfit looking to firm
up their position at the top of the group.
