ESPN FC’s Gab Marcotti, Steve Nicol and Craig Burley react to Lionel Messi’s Instagram post which featured a very public criticism of sporting director Eric Abidal. Marcotti explains how it could all play out between the two former teammates and says that “Messi took a very, very serious step in going after Abidal in public.” The crew try to make sense of Messi’s decision to not keep things internal by taking to social media to air his grievances and question if this could be his last season with Barcelona.

So Eric Abidal should be terminated just for stating an opinion? That's so idiotic.
Ever since they sold Neymar. Stupid decision
Bla, bla, bla! The truth is that ESPN doesn't know anything about what's going on in Barca! These clowns are spewing BS without FACTS!
It is not good to have a player run the club.
Success or not, would love to see Messi in the EPL.
just imagine a Barcelona without Messi. it’ll upset a lot of Barca fans
Messi go play with Cristiano! Please!
Messi is richer than Eric abidal , so he can say whatever he wants
He went public because fans and other people should know that board is not delivering of what is asked from them. Managing boards come up with excuses to defend themselves but here we know what was going wrong, the fact that they kept their eyes closed after consecutive humiliation. They find bliss in ignorance.
3months later, messi retires to become Barcelona's director of football
