Barcelona legend Lionel Messi’s worst team-mates XI, including Alex Song who failed at Camp Nou to TWO Sunderland flops – The Sun | The Sun
LIONEL MESSI is a record seven-time Ballon d'Or king, a four-time Champions League winner and is now hoping to fire Paris Saint-Germain to an elusive Champions League.
The 35-year-old Argentine, who also secured his nation the Copa America last year, is quite rightly heralded by many as the greatest player of all time.
Having graced Barcelona's Camp Nou for more than 15 years and now the Parc des Princes, many great players have purred over getting to take to the field alongside the icon.
PSG strike partner and ex-Barca team-mate Neymar referred to it as playing with his 'idol', while Xavi gushed: "It is clear that Messi is on a level above all others. Those who do not see that are blind."
But while those two were fantastic in their own right for Barcelona, not everybody that has had the pleasure of playing with Messi can say the same.
Barca bosses even started to be criticised for 'wasting' some of Messi's peak with poor decision making.
There are several who should count themselves lucky to have lined up alongside him.
And here we take a look at possibly the worst XI of the bunch:
