Ryan Wylie: McManus is Monaghan’s maestro Messi

Seeing as he has to mark Conor McManus in training, Ryan Wylie has no problem in likening his teammate to Monaghan’s version of Lionel Messi.

Clontibret man McManus is expected to slowly work himself into the league as he has done the last few seasons, which means he might not feature in Sunday week’s Division 1 opener against Dublin in St Tiernach’s Park. “He likes to mind himself,” Wylie laughed.
