The Argentine spoke about his family life with World Soccer

Barcelona star Lionel Messi has once again talked about the changes ongoing in his family life, above all because of his eldest son Thiago. 

In an interview from December which has only now been published with World Soccer, Messi has revealed that Thiago, as well as his middle son Mateo, "like football a lot." 

But Messi says it's the eldest of them, Thiago, who "understands football more because he's the biggest and he talks about everything to do with football -- he's really focused on everything related to football." 

Asked if Thiago is demanding with him, the Argentina international said: "Yes, yes! I have already had some criticism from him! Barcelona, La Liga, the Champions League... he follows it all. He like it, he asks questions and he gives me pointers when things don't go so well." 

Before, talking of football wasn't a thing in the Messi house -- especially after a defeat. That ahs changed: "It's not like that anymore! It's always tough to manage the losses and the bad performances, but Thiago forces me to talk about what happened and explain why we didn't win. Now, we talk much more."
