You didn’t watch the game. Every single person who watched the game would agree he was their best player by far
He was terrible in their previous game as I already said at the time
How is he a different player? He hasn’t won a Champions League in 5 years at Barcelona. He’s well past his peak
Sorry if I blamed Pipita for missing sitters and penalties in finals, I should’ve blamed Messi for those as well like I should have blamed Messi for Foyth’s bad defending
That’s just an outright lie, you are utterly delusional, up last night sitting there with a glass of milk in your Messi pyjamas expecting anything different than the usual disappearing act with him. A shadow of the player he is with Barcelona and we all know why that is.
Maybe you should blame Messi, the main man for Argentina, the player that is meant to be the best in the world, the greatest of all time for all the big times he has failed to deliver for Argentina. He can score 60 in a season for Barcelona but God help us if we expect him to ship in with a few from general play in knockout games with his country every now and again!
Who do you think was Argentina’s best player last night if it wasn’t Messi?
Juan Foyth apparently.
Messi was clearly their best player. Watch the game if you want. Your source below is very funny, at fault for one goal and nearly at fault for another Juan Foyth a 7/10 and Lautaro Martinez who barely had a kick 7/10
Why would I blame Messi for other players making mistakes? That would be nonsensical
Argentinian soccer is gone as soft as shit .
How much of a kick did Messi have?
You told me a couple of posts back that anyone who saw the game would have Messi as the be best player. Another biased, subjective piece of nonsense for yourself.
You don’t help yourself that you continually defend the indefensible.
Because you’re a Messi fanboy, you always look to deflect the blame away from him. He’s the guy who is meant to be their best player but he rarely if ever shows it.
He set up a chance for Aguero who hit the bar, he hit the post himself, he set up a chance for Rodrigo de Paul who blazed over, he set up two other half chances for Aguero where he should have done better
Watch the game or stop lying and fuck off
What about the amount of times he gave the ball away, got tackled, interecepted, muscled off the ball, failed to release the ball, ran into blind alleys? You seem to think its acceptable to play like a guy who plays for Osasuna when he’s with Argentina.
Attacking players are going to lose the ball but that didn’t happen much last night. Go watch the game
Attacking plays also generally create goals and score them.
Go watch the game.
You can’t create goals if the person you’re creating chances for doesn’t put it in the net
You also can’t score goals when you don’t put it in the net. You can’t blame others for Messi’s shots not going in although I’m sure you’ll have a good stab at it.
He had one shot from open play last night and hit the post. He doesn’t get into the positions to score as many goals at Argentina because he is needed to build up the play and Argentina have no threat from wide areas whereas at Barca, how many of Messi’s goal come through link up with Jordi Alba?
Its why I would always start Di Maria for Argentina, he’s fairly shit most of the time but at least he stays wide and gives another option
That’s a lie, did you even watch the game?
So all of Messi’s success is down to his team mates at Barca? Credit to CR7 in that he has at least proven himself at three different clubs now.
Sorry 2. One of them from well outside the box
No, but football is a team game and 1 man can’t do it all
How has he proven himself at Juventus? They went backwards with him last season
That nearly hit the corner flag.
Or much at all.
How did they go backwards?
He was their top scorer and they won another Serie A title.
They got knocked out of the CL by a bunch of kids. Winning Serie A at Juve isn’t an achievement
How many clubs did Totti prove himself at?
The same club knocked out his former club. CR7 scored all Juve’s 5 goals in their 4 knockout ties.
