Older players in Serie A are out scoring him again 50 in 50 is some going but many against crap and amateurs and many Penaldos. Most strikers just aren't as obsessive about playing and scoring in pointless games to break records. He's played 169 games for Portugal. He's only about 10 short of...

Can they cancel the last game and just play Andorra again for Crissy?

The game was only arranged to get him goals.

He needs to ease off on the dribbling, as he's easily knocked off the ball now. Ronaldo made this adjustment in his game years ago, as he changed his game to goal hanger. How many players are still good at dribbling and taking players on at 33? Robben was, but it's not common. It's also a...

He can play 90 mins but he paces himself through it. He can put more into one half when fresh.

Or he hasn't got the stamina to play 90 minutes so he can put more into 45 mins. He needs to stay high up the pitch though.

Suarez is a major millstone gone, Rakitic and Vidal as well. It's a start.

The goals might come if he stays up the pitch. Yeah he's missing chances but Ronaldo misses 7 chances to score 1. The difference is he always gets at least 7 chances in a game because he's always in the right areas. Messi still tries to do too much,

Juve are trash. One man team?

Messi is declining. Only natural at 33, that decline will only accelerate. He should seriously move to Serie A where age doesn't really matter (domestically anyway). Beyond that PSG would be an easy few seasons domestically in another slow league. He's declined too much physically to play in...

Next summer Messi, Pique and Busquets need to leave with the board and then start anew. Raki, Suarez and Vidal was only a start

He should go to Serie A. Plenty of players pushing 40 are banging goals in over there. It's a much slower league. Either that or go to PSG. Glad he didn't go to City because he'd have ruined his reputation even more, by not being able to physically cope with the Premier League given his...

Messi was still the best in the world a year ago, without Xavi/Iniesta/Neymar and with a past-it Suarez. Carried a poor team to the brink of a treble and won the ballon d'or. I think Anfield followed by more Copa America heartache finished him off.

City will know they've dodged a bullet. He's not even worth a new contract. He's finished as a goalscorer and hasn't got the stamina to play in midfield.

He needs to stay high up the pitch and see if he can possibly get his goalscoring touch back. He's not worth a new contract at the moment otherwise.

Ramos will outscore him this year.

You need a forward who can actually score. Suarez was garbage but at least he could score now and again.

Barca and Real will come again at some stage as the biggest clubs in Europe but it looks like an era of mediocrity beckons. Atleti have had their glory/nearly years under Simeone as Valencia did 15-20 years ago and Sevilla are still a good Europa League team.

All the La Liga teams are awful when faced with a good side. No team in Spain could live with Bayern.

The decline of La Liga is something else. It's shocking at the moment and that result is a new low against a Shaktar youth team. Hopefully we can get our league title back anyway,
