Veron: Snoring of Barcelona star Messi a shocker!

Juan Sebastian Veron is worried about rooming with Argentina teammate Lionel Messi.

Former Manchester United man Veron, 35, is sharing a room with Barcelona superstar Messi at the squad's Pretoria base.

And he revealed: "He's a good room mate but a small problem is that he snores a lot." Then Veron added with a chuckle: "That can be resolved with a pillow!

"But let's hope he is in form on the pitch because he's an important component of the team. He's looking good generally."

Messi, 22, insisted: "If we look at it player by player, it's hard to find another national team better than ours."
