I know this is somewhat old news but do you guys think that Messi takeing growth hormones at the age of 11 has something to do with his ability on the pitch now?

Its doping in my opinion and although it was at a younger age it questions the integrity of the Barcelona academy.

What are your thoughts?
 

I don't think it would have anything to do with his technique or ability on the field.

From what I remember reading is that he needed that medication because his body didn't have the hormone that everyone else is born with to grow normally. Even if he wasnt a footballer he'd need it because he'd have disproportions when he should be at a normal height. Also his family couldn't afford it which is why he moved to barca as they said they'd pay for it

Hes asthmatic too

But was it just growth hormone he was given, that my question in this....
 

I had growth hormones when i was 15. I am still crap.
 

Lol no mate, just find this interesting the fact that he has used steroids.

He used growth hormones, and he's still a bloody dwarf. Clearly he needed them.

If you honestly think they've given him superpowers or something, then you need to stop reading comics.
