Messi defends Barcelona pal Ronaldinho: He's tired

Leo Messi has defended Barcelona teammate Ronaldinho after a difficult season for the Brazilian superstar.
Messi admitted: "He is tired - the people who work with him understand that.
"For three seasons he's been playing in the Liga (Spanish), Copa del Rey, Champions League, World Cup, qualifiers and friendlies," said the Argie ace. "My situation is different. I had three months of forced vacations (due to injury), I am 19 years old and I am crazy to play in my first Copa America."
Indeed, on his personal situation, Messi declared: "I have a contract until 2014 and do not think to leave. I had a complicated year, affected by injury, but I am finishing the season in excellent condition.
"For that same reason, I want to play in the Copa America."
