Messi Must put Tax Issues Aside and Finally Win the Copa America
Well, the law is looking for your boy Lionel. With a little case of four million that he owes. So with that hanging over his head, he needs to try and focus his mind and sharpen his mojo because there's an important tournament that he needs to win.
Messi has yet ANOTHER shot at the itle. His third in three years. You don't get that lucky or maybe there might be a higher power that is aligning for him to finally win a title for Argentina. Because for all the medals and records he has broken with Barcelona, nothing will mean more to him and his family than bringing back a major title for the light blue and white.
It's very important how Messi wins this competition. If Di Maria and Aguero are the ones who do the heavy-lifting with Lionel being a sideshow bob, then I'm afraid that won't be acceptable. The people of Argentina won't accept it and will continue to put him below Maradona in terms of importance to their country.
Lionel has to lead from the front and carry the team in the way that Maradona did in 86 and 90. That's what the people expect and it's what the world wants to to see as well. For someone who has taken the game to a different level, we have all been waiting for him to finally live up to his own reputation for Argentina as that has been the asterisk which has stopped him from being called a horseman.
Lionel Jeremiah Richie Messi....bring home that Copa America...and please try and pay your taxes next time. HH
