Messi should stay free of practice and just rest . We need him for the world cup.

yeh, but he should still watch videos or do something while he's resting to make sure hes still on top of his game physicly and mentally

messi should rest what's the sense rushing back . if he's not 100% fit he should stay where he is and get fit for the world cup. the champion league is every year and worldcup every four years so he got a lot more championsleague to play with barca.

Keep up the hard work!
