Barca missing Messi mojo before Milan clash
maDriD, November 5 (reuters): Lionel Messi has set the bar so high for himself that when he does not score for a few games it prompts an outburst of speculation and head-scratching about what might be ailing the Argentine World Player of the Year. That is the situation Messi's club Barcelona find themselves in as they prepare to host AC Milan in Champions League Group H on Wednesday. At home to Espanyol on Friday, the 26-year-old failed to score for a fourth successive La Liga match in which he played the full 90 minutes, his most barren run in almost six years. Messi's season was disrupted by a minor muscle strain at the end of September and since his return he has also failed to score against Osasuna, Celta Vigo and Real Madrid. That said, he did net the equaliser in last month's 1-1 Champions League draw at Milan, his fourth goal of the competition in two outings this season following his hattrick against Ajax Amsterdam in September. His record in La Liga is
also one most players would be delighted with - eight goals in 10 appearances - yet still the alarm bells are ringing in the Catalan capital and beyond. Barca's four club captains Xavi, Carles Puyol, Victor Valdes and Andres Iniesta - are so worried that they have offered to meet Messi to see if he needs their help, Sport newspaper reported on Sunday. Messi himself has said little about the situation, although he posted a message on Chinese social networking site Weibo at the weekend saying he was not yet back to full fitness. "I am still not at 100 percent physically but for sure with each passing match I will pick up more rhythm," he said. Barca coach Gerardo Martino, who like Messi hails from the city of Rosario, played down concerns about the player's form after the Espanyol game. "Messi does not seem worried to me," he told a news conference. "It's just a coincidence that he has not scored in three or four games. "Messi has raised the bar so high that when he doesn't score it's FC Barcelona's Lionel Messi from Argentina, center, duels for the ball against Espanyol´s Juan Fuentes, right, suddenly a problem." during a Spanish La Liga soccer match at the Camp Nou stadium in Barcelona, Spain on Nov. 1.
