FIFA World Cup: When Lionel Messi first came to Spain to join Barcelona, he was 13-14 years old and coming all the way from his native Argentina, found it tough adjusting to the different country and living alone, says hid one-time captain Marc Valiente, currently playing for FC Goa in the Indian Super League (ISL).

"When he came to our team, I think he was 13-14. It was not easy for him because he came all the way from Argentina," said Valiente. "He couldn't play the first season. It was not easy for him to get used to our play, but after that, he was not shy anymore, and you could see from the first minute that he was so different."
