Barcelona face Eibar on Saturday
Eibar boss Jose Luis Mendilibar spoke about Lionel Messi on Thursday ahead of his team’s trip to Camp Nou to take on Barcelona in La Liga.
There’s a chance Messi could be rested with Martin Braithwaite having arrived from Leganes and Napoli up next in the Champions League on Tuesday.
Yet Mendilibar had a bit of fun in his pre-match presser. He reckons that Messi knows how to rest during games and would be better off on the pitch than the stands.
“I don’t think [Messi] rests,” he said.
”This bastard rests in the game. He knows when he has to participate, when to rest.
”If he was given the day off he would have a worse time watching from the stands and get more tired.”

The Eibar boss also went on to explain how Messi had been on the bench due to illness in a game when he was Osasauna boss. The GOAT came on with Barca winning 2-0 and scored twice to complete a 4-0 victory.
