Although many consider Lionel Messi to be an extremely passive footballer, in recent years he has also shown that he sometimes gets angry in matches, especially with the Argentine National Team, where he is the captain and likes to defend his team. On this occasion, a funny insult that Messi once said to a former soccer player and now sports journalist from England is revealed.
The one who was one of the toughest centre-backs in the British Isles, now a contributor to Sky Sports, read before the cameras a conversation he had with Messi via Instagram. It is worth remembering that Messi is positioned as one of the footballers who has often established himself as one of the great references of the moment, but who also usually has some criticism, mainly from the European press.
In the framework of the Champions League matches, Carragher was asked if he had ever received a direct message from La Pulga, to which he responded: “Yes, is Spanish what Argentines speak? I'm just going to say the word he called me, I didn't understand it. ‘Donkey,’ what does that mean?” Next, they explained to him what 'donkey' was and Jamie couldn't hide his surprise live. Along the same lines, Thierry Henry, who was also present as a panelist and understands Spanish, laughed out loud. That message from '10' would not be recent, but from some time ago.
Jamie Carragher also spoke about Lisandro Martínez
A few months ago, after Lisandro Martinez's arrival at Manchester United, Jamie Carragher confessed that he incorrectly disparaged the Argentine. "It happens to any center back who comes to the Premier League and is less than 1.80. You automatically think 'he's going to have problems', and he didn't. I would like to apologize to Lisandro Martínez, he was the surprise of the season for me," were Carragher's words for the world champion.
