Lionel Messi Games Quotations

It's not so easy for us when we play teams who have a different mindset, like Chelsea or Inter Milan, because they have the intention of trying to stop us rather than playing a game that is more attractive for the spectators to enjoy.

Money is not a motivating factor. Money doesn't thrill me or make me play better because there are benefits to being wealthy. I'm just happy with a ball at my feet. My motivation comes from playing the game I love. If I wasn't paid to be a professional footballer I would willingly play for nothing.

Every year I try to grow as a player and not get stuck in a rut. I try to improve my game in every way possible. But that trait is not something I've worked on, it's part of me.

There are more important things in life than winning or losing a game.

I use Herbalife products on and off the field for energy and focus. That way I can play my best game

You have got to love the game.

Goals are only important if they win games

My motivation comes from playing the game I love

I would pass onto any young player to enjoy your football, play your football as you want to play the game, try and enjoy it and make the most of it.

I JUST GET ON WITH MY GAME AND LET THE REFEREES DO THEIR JOB.
