That explains everything. I knew that there had to be a reason why someone could actually defend Pedro's awful, just awful performances while criticizing Alexis..

Tbh, that looks more like C.Ronaldo.. :p

Aight. I apologize. That's the thing, his dives are not even convincing. They look so unnatural and are just pathetic. I can't see how the referee falls for them ALL the time..

I can also nitpick stats. 25% of every goal that C.Ronaldo scores in the league is a penalty, i.e 1 in every 4 goal. 12,5%(IIRC) of every goal that Messi scores in the league is a penalty, i.e circa 1 in every 9 goal..

What a game from him :worthy:

Yep, he is totally finish. We should sell him as soon as possible..

And that's why I don't ever use Messi's 90+ goals in a year as a proof of Messi being the best player in the world. Infact, I never use stats at all when I am making my case why I think that Messi is the best player in the world. I just don't think that scoring a hattrick when your team is...

Wasn't Gazza a midfielder? And the older generation would probably rate Bobby Charlton higher than Scholes..

Not so sure about that. Maybe he might be 1kg or 2kg heavier, but he has always had that body. Proof

Exactly! It infuriates me how people say that Messi has been shit for 3 years now(apparently according to Los Blancos), yet just last season he scored 44 goals IIRC and had over 10+ assist. Yet they say that C.Ronaldo has been the best player when his goalscoring tally has been just as...

Of course, but let's not forget that Messi has been great in the start of the season just because of 2 bad games. If we would be as fickle with C.Ronaldo as we are with Messi, you would not be saying that he is the most inform striker in the league.

What do you expect? To play great in every single game? I mean, so far we have only had 2 bad games this season, against Apoel and Malaga. But in the rest of the games we have played overall great. And the only thing that you could criticize the team was that the finishing was lacking, seeing as...

That's actually what I originally said, but then I kept thinking that Pedro's running doesn't really help us that much defensively. So I edited my comment to put "running like a headless chicken," seeing as that's what Pedro does..

That's actaully what I originally said, but then I kept thinking that Pedro's running doesn't really help that much us defensively..

Football fans are really fickle. Messi is the reason why we are in the fist place in the league, and yet you say that he needs to step up?

Exactly. And this is proof of that

Nah, people will drool over Iniesta's silky move but still mention that he had an off game. Where as if you do the same with C.ronaldo, people will attack you and call you a hater. And while I am one of those who thinks that 2012 wasn't Messi's best year, you can't compare that with C.ronaldo...

The fuck? You know, there is a reason why Messi ended up as the 2nd best player in europe last year. In the 2012/13, Messi while playing less games scored 12+ more goals than C.Ronaldo in the league while also giving more assist and scored against all the 19 teams in the league in a row. Not to...

I am not saying that scoring goals is easy. I am just that it's easier for C.ronaldo to be acknowledge of having a great game as people don't care about his overall performance. They just care about him scoring goals. While players like Iniesta has to dominate a game from start to finish. And...

Glad we loaned him while we kept Pedro. Who cares about attacking prowess for a forward? It's all about running like a headless chicken!
