The one that Messi was missing: a FC Barcelona legend destroyed the team and removed Messi from the starting team

FC Barcelona continues to excuse itself that the VAR was the one who made him lose the game against Real Madrid. Koeman keeps talking about the VAR to try to justify his team's adverse result. Another who is at the center of criticism is Lionel Messi since he did not appear throughout the game and today he is more dedicated to talking off the field.

That is why one of the best players in the history of FC Barcelona came out to criticize the actions of Koeman's team and to ask that they stop paying attention to arbitration and dedicate themselves to playing soccer. If FC Barcelona does not change the mentality in the face of the games that come, they will continue on this path of defeats and criticism.

Former Brazilian player and FC Barcelona legend Rivaldo harshly criticized Koeman's team and Messi. For Rivaldo, the VAR did not harm FC Barcelona, but the bad approach to the game and the lack of Lionel Messi in the team was what made Real Madrid win the game. Rivaldo had already criticized Bartomeu weeks ago and how the club was being run.

Rivaldo does not see a good future for FC Barcelona as he believes that many changes must be made, beyond the dismissal of Bartmoeu. Rivaldo added that he has already lost faith in the team led by Lionel Messi and that if Messi continues with that attitude he should be among the substitutes. FC Barcelona needs all its players 100% committed to be able to return to the level they need to have.
