According to Setien, he actually did not want to expect Messi to score in the match against Getafe. However, he realized it was impossible to not depend on the player nicknamed the La Pulga.

“Getafe players certainly have the experience to look after it. If that happens, that’s actually not a problem for Messi. At some point, you might have to be able to count on him, “Setien said as quoted by Marca.

But Setien understands that Messi’s always-reliant condition will have a negative impact. Mainly in a matter of fitness, especially according to Setien the current match schedule is so tight.

“I don’t have time to think about schedules. Footballers today are used to playing twice a week. This condition takes place quickly, “he added.

Setién also hopes that Dutch midfielder, Frankie de Jong, in the match against Getafe will be able to show his best play. De Jong said Setien is one of the best midfielders in the world today.

“He is a player who is very familiar with tactics. He really wants to learn and continue to improve the game. He is a big player who does many things well, “.

“We hope he will continue to grow and develop for the better. He showed an increase in appearance every week, “concluded Setien.
