File Picture[/caption] Internet Desk : Argentina’s newly appointed coach Edgardo Bauza lashes at FC Barcelona for not taking proper care of Lionel Messi, who just made his comeback form retirement for his country against Uruguay last month in a World Cup qualifier match. He also doubted that the Argentine star might not available for his country’s World Cup qualifying  matches, which will take place next month. Messi got an injury on Wednesday during Barca’s La Liga match against Atletico Madrid, which ended in a 1-1 draw and the sources told that he has a torn right adductor and will be out of action for atleast three weeks. Bauza was annoyed with Barcelona as they played Leo in four successive games in just 12 days period despite knowing that he had a groin injury in his other leg and that made him out of line for a long time earlier in the season. "Barcelona always sends us messages saying that we must take care of Messi, but they don't take care of him very well," Bauza told the media . "It is strange that they make him play in all their matches." Bauza added,” Messi was already struggling with a left adductor injury that put him in doubt against Uruguay in September. Four days later, he missed Argentina's match against Venezuela.” Messi then played in four consecutive matches for Barcelona against Alaves, Celtic , Leganes and Atletico Madrid. "We received the official report from Barcelona. To us, that seems strange because three weeks is not enough time to repair a torn adductor," Bauza told the media. "We haven't yet been able to speak with him, but we want to know how serious the injury is.” "Barcelona have made it more complicated for us. They posted an official statement and at the moment that is all we have to go on. Our team doctors are waiting on the MRI to know the official grade of the injury." "Apparently, studies have been done and we are waiting on those results, which will be sent to our national team doctors. That way we will have a more definitive answer."
