About this deal

Awesome peace of writting by Luca Caioli.The interviews, the informations and statistics all are heartly appreciated fan like us.truely good work. Now, Lionel Messi is the best soccer player in the world. Many people say he is a 'Maradona 2nd' His height is only 169 cm. It is very short among soccer player. But His performance is dynamic and he can control the ball accurately even if he runs at the top speed. It amazing. I like him and I will enjoy his performance. One diminutive and reserved, the other, tall and theatrical. One with six Ballons d’Or, and the other with five. There’s no doubt about it ― Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are the best. But which one is better? My 8 year old football fan devoured this book and he’s not one for reading for hours. Would recommend this book.” He hasn’t taken any notice of who he is. That’s why being famous, signing autographs or taking photos with fans doesn’t bother him. Some evenings, when he comes home after a long time and when I go to see him, I lay by his side on the bed. We chat, I ruffle his hair, I tell him things, and I say, half joking: “What all the girls wouldn’t give to be next to you like this.” He makes a weird face and says: “Don’t be silly mum.”’

Thirdly, and this is a big problem, in many of these conversations, Caioli draws a comparison between Messi and Maradona, asking his guest to choose. Again, in all fairness, parallels between the two footballers do exist and it is a question that has come up again and again, but dude! Like in every other conversation? And the answers that many people give are almost always the same. This particular emphasis of Caioli on the Messi-Maradona parallel gets really annoying at times, if not outright frustrating. Fascinating. What an interesting man. (Don’t read the Rooney straight after, or you’ll realise Rooney has no character or interesting elements to him at all). My son loved it and my wife listened to me reading it to him.” She turns right by Tiro Suizo, a sports club founded in 1889 by immigrants from the Tesino region. Two kids don’t notice the car, they are too absorbed, scampering along with the ball between their feet. ‘That’s what Lionel was like,’ says Celia. Messi didiagnosis mengalami growth hormone deficiency (kekurangan hormon pertumbuhan). Pengobatan penyakit ini menghabiskan biaya cukup tinggi. Klub River tertarik akan bakat Messi dan bersedia membiayai pengobatan dengan syarat membawa surat keterangan dari Newell's. Mereka tidak ingin mendapatkan masalah dengan Newell's. Ternyata Newell's tidak bersedia dan mereka menjanjikan hal lain yaitu... Barcelona.Kuper unravels exactly how the club became not just the world’s highest grossing sports team, but also one of the most influential organizations on the planet. While explaining this transformation, the author pays special attention to the club’s two biggest stars, Johan Cruyff and Lionel Messi, the latter who is arguably the greatest soccer player of all time. Messi joined Barça at 13 and more than anyone, has been the engine and standard-bearer of Barcelona’s glory. But his era is coming to an end — and with it — a once-in-a-lifetime golden run. Messi - the name is enough to send shivers down the spine of any defender who has ever graced the pitch. This is the story of a boy, who diagnosed with a serious case of growth hormone deficiency, beat all odds and went on to become the greatest ever footballer to have played the beautiful game. He went on to become the pivot of the greatest ever squad assembled in footballing history. Throughout the book we learn of the many adversities that Messi has faced from childhood, including his growth deficiency, as well as financial and family troubles. Leo recalls his nightly routine of administering hypodermic shots filed with growth hormones, as well as the tremendous pain that occurred in the process. Messi also talks about what his life was like while in the Barcelona academy, and the tremendous amount of pressure that was placed on his shoulders.

Argentina have reached the World Cup final for the sixth time, doing so in two of the last three editions of the competition (also in 2014) – only Germany (8) have reached more finals in the competition than Argentina (6 – level with Italy and Brazil). Messi: The inside story of the boy who became a legend by Luca Caioli. Luca draws on numerous exclusive testimonies to tell Messi's story, including his parents and extended family, his coaches, those who have played alongside him and even Messi himself. This book will let you in on the steps that are taken to becoming a great football player, but most importantly, it will give you the inside story of the young icon known as Messi.

But still I'm optimistic about messi and albicileste and I know a international cup is waiting for Leo messi to kiss it again. Messi: A Biography is a well-written novel by Leonardo Faccio. This novel is about Lionel Messi and how he went pro from being the smallest kid on the team to being the best player in the world. Lionel In terms of football, I hope he makes history like Pelé, like Maradona; I hope he goes far, very far. But above all, as a mother, I hope to God he will be happy, that he has a family, that he lives life, because he still hasn’t really lived. He has dedicated himself to football, body and soul. He doesn’t go out, he doesn’t do many of the things that young people his age do. That’s why I hope he has a wonderful life. He deserves it.’ The Barcelona Complex: Lionel Messi and the Making - and Unmaking - of the World's Greatest Soccer Club, by Simon Kuper, Steve West.

Bought this for my 11-year-old grand-daughter as she really likes football, but not much of a reader. To be honest her dad read it to her, he said it was good to read about where it all started for Messi.” On 10th August 2021, Lionel Messi's beautiful Barcelona fairy tale came to an end as he completed a dramatic move to Paris Saint-Germain.
