Lionel Messi, who was not in agreement on that comment replied that:

“To be brutally honest, I don’t like doing these things but I think that every person has to take responsibility for their own duties and the decisions they take. That includes the players, in what goes on out on the pitch – but we are the first ones to recognise when we haven’t played well. Those in charge of the Technical Area also need to assume their responsibilities and above all, the decisions that they make. Lastly, I think that when someone mentions players, they should give names because if they don’t, they are tarring everyone with the same brush and fuelling gossip – a lot of which is not true”.
