Barca 4-3-3 Tactical Project - Messi Role ?

[Yorkex]

I decided to emulate the tiki taka playstyle. So far its looking good but I just cant get my striker involved as much as I like. He is playing as Complete Striker(A) currently.

Solid overall game , kept possession as planned and they defended all game.

Question is : What Role emulates Messi's movement/Play style ?

​

Messi plays the false 9 role.

 

[miguelalves]

Messi has played several roles in position 9: false 9, treq, DLF, CF, all these

 

[matanbar]

He can be Treq as AMC, or F9 as striker, also he play in a complete foward, because sometimes he have the freedom to do whatever he want.

 

[Micky979]

The 'Messi Role' is just that. Same as the Makelele role at Chelsea. The player is the role.
