CESC FABREGAS TALKS OF LIONEL MESSI AND THE FAMOUS LA MASIA.

  When Lionel Messi  joined up with the Barcelona youth academy called THE LA MASIA, THE CASTLE.

 In his batch there were few footballers who graduated with him  from The la Masia. And those that really became famous were Cesc Fabregas, who played for Barcelona,, Chelsea , Arsenal and Monaco.

Another one was Gerard Pique, who played for Manchester United and Barcelona.

  Cesc Fabregas tells us  that Lionel Messi right from day  one impressed the Barcelona youth and senior club. He had a terrific football brain, vision dribbles and accurate passes were there from the very first day.

 But there was a big  error in his play as he would be falling down,often if tackled or even when not tackled. The bones were so week and he lost his balance when he ran fast even.

 But this all changed after those costly injections.

Cesc Fabregas also said a very shy and quiet Lionel Messi would sit by himself all alone at the La Masia, he was homesick. But the senior players at Barcelona like Xavi Hernandez Andres Iniesta and Carles Puyol would visit the kids to spend time and to give them gifts as well.
