Article: What could possible be going on in Messi’s head right now?

(Written June 6 2018, by Alfonso Martirez)

Days away from the most important two months of his life, fans feel the gravity of this one tournament and die-hard fans sit in numbing anxiety.

Us fans shouldn’t be too worried though. For awhile now, Lionel Messi has been regarded as the goat and I refuse to entertain any back-and-forth’s with Ronaldo fans. Or worse, old school purists who think it’s Pele or Maradona.

When one is bestowed a label or moniker such as: the goat, it would be expected to feel a particularly unnerving energy that goes with it. Especially the extent of what the term entails, it’d be inhuman to feel okay when the term goat is beset onto them (unless they’re the blatantly ignorant humans). Luckily for us Messi kiss-asses— Lionel Andres Messi isn’t human.

Messi is pure, raw talent. What separates him from fellow sportsmen is his quietness and humble mannerisms. A modern perception of superstars is that they must possess bravado to the point of blurry discernment between confidence and arrogance. The likes of LeBron, Neymar, Tiger, had the confidence instilled as the spotlight has been on them since their youth, whilst the Jordan’s, Brady’s, Kobe’s had it because of their innate competitive personalities. Messi is cut from

his own cloth—thriving off of talent (seemingly) on its own. However, Messi’s confidence and elan vital for the game may come from a source most people tend to overlook, his belief.

Messi has stated via TyC sports that he intends to go on a 43-mile pilgrimage if Argentina wins the World Cup. That’s 68 kilometres—that’s about 15 hours considering how short Messi’s legs are. Also keep in mind that the squad joining him is just about the same squad that lost to Spain 6-1 in a tune up match last March (without Messi).

Though, this statement by Messi is all baloney, until you consider the circumstances. No, this statement is a promise extended to the degree of legacy and national scrutiny. Scrutiny his own countrymen selfishly and unfairly hold against him simply because his successes have been exclusive to sunny Barcelona. Nonetheless, Messi is preparing himself for a great World Cup, and all the preparations are going to be in private, except for one—the pilgrimage. Author, Steven Kotler explained that risk is a necessary operative for performing at your best. What better way to impose risk for a quiet, meek mannered Argentinian nicknamed the flea, to put himself in the position of potential embarrassment before the world’s very eyes.

So now we have a man (be it an extraordinarily talented man), prepared for global scrutiny. One man amongst 10 teammates and a nation, acknowledging his extraordinary responsibility.

In a Businessworld article by Jemy Gatdula, he goes on to state the comparison of the beautiful game to chess. “By the fifth move, one could possibly log 4,897,256 potential moves. Football is the same [however] moves are not fixed to alternating between players, the 22 “pieces” are moving (and moving fast), and the movements don’t remain on a flat square.” Lionel Messi is quite literally facing that same probability of potential outcomes, except in his legacy’s case, the next move is a World Cup trophy in his hands and he is promptly welcoming the challenge.

In times where people enjoy the tendency of comparing profession to artistry, we often times forget that individuals can be craftsmen– passionate men and women obsessing over what they love to do, eventually reaching heights they deserve. Messi was once a kid who, what he lacked in growth hormones, made up for ability to have the football superglued to his feet. Messi might just be the ultimate crossbreed between artist and craftsman via superstar athlete. Dancing around defenders in simple, groovy movements and rhythm. Masterfully applying simple movements for the sake of functionality, conserving energy and minimising risk of injury. I restate my claim, Messi isn’t just inhuman nor one of a kind but a standout among standouts.

This 5’6 (with human growth hormones (who knows how short he’d be without it)) Argentinian is ready to do all that he can just for his country. Whether or not he pulls through for his angered countrymen—one thing is for sure, he will bask in his own unequaled greatness. He is ready to produce the greatest work of art embodied in one summer, ready to craft a masterpiece of a World Cup performance.
