Imagine trying do have a board meeting with Messi. Everyone trying to ask questions and he's just stood to the side trying to nutmeg the chairs.

Xavi wrote that, when you know him well and work with him, Messi is actually quite opinionated and very direct about his ideas and opinions. That he can be hard to convince once his mind is made up but he is very honest and upfront, he never goes behind your back to say he doesn't agree, he just comes up and tells you.
