Lionel Messi talks Barcelona pre-season, has no problem with Antoine Griezmann

Lionel Messi spoke to reporters after starting for Barcelona in Wednesday’s 2-1 win over Inter Milan in the Champions League at the Camp Nou.

The Barcelona captain said he has no problem with Antoine Griezmann and was happy to finally get 90 minutes under his belt after an injury-interrupted campaign.

“We have no problem with Griezmann. Little little by little our relationship is growing. The relationship of the whole dressing room is very good.

“All teams are having a hard time starting of the season. It is not a criticism, it is a reality, but when you travel in pre-season, you do not train well.
