Two Arsenal captains .
One ran away from Arsenal skipping training sessions forcing his move .
The other joined Arsenal when we were a mid table club and led us to our first league title in 22 years.
Very happy to have played my first minutes in this shirt and at this stadium! Very excited about everything we have ahead of us. Thank you for the support, and see you Sunday, Gunners! 🔴⚪3️⃣9️⃣ @Arsenal
❤️🩹🇦🇷 Leo Messi: “Dad, you kept asking me to play in one last World Cup… just days before it began was when your condition got worse”.
“It was the first time you weren’t going to be there with me at tournament… but Mom kept telling me you were going to get better and that you’d be well enough to travel”.
“I kept telling you we were going to reach the World Cup final so you could make the trip, this was my mission once again”.
“After every match, I waited for and missed your message. That’s when I realized how serious the situation really was”.
“I couldn’t stop thinking about going as far as possible, give you more time and the chance to watch one of the games”.
“We reached the final, but you couldn’t be there. I wanted to win it so I could bring the trophy to you and show you another one. I couldn’t”.
“My legs just couldn’t give me any more”.
“This time I tried to push beyond what my body could handle, but I couldn’t”.
“I never managed to feel physically right”.
“We didn’t become champions Dad, but you have no idea how much we enjoyed every match. Once again, you were right: I had to be there and play in it… as you told me, always”.
They say they dont rate our players until their club is linked to one of ours. Then its think pieces and 7 hour tactical break downs how X player would enhance their system and life 😂
