Every body: Guardiola said in 2020 that Messi would help Argentina compete for the World Cup title

On November 22, the Western media "Daily Sports" reported that Guardiola said in 2020 that Messi would help Argentina compete for the World Cup championship.

Messi only joined the Barcelona first team in 2005. Just one year later, he showed the potential to be on par with the greatest players, although no one could have predicted that his career would be so successful.

But Guardiola said in 2006: "Messi is amazing, it's amazing, outstanding."

Guardiola commented that the key factor in Messi's ability is that "he does everything very well and faster than others." He has been able to combine superb skills with extremely fast thinking speed.

Guardiola said: "Barcelona is fortunate to have Messi, he has an extraordinary mind, and I hope the surrounding environment will not make him lose his way. Congratulations to the Argentine national team for having a great player. If they use Messi as the core, they can return The competition for the World Cup."

Guardiola finally asserted that Messi was "much better" at the age of 18 than he was at the same age, because "the difficult thing is to play as a forward and score goals", while he himself "plays in the backcourt, which is much easier."
