10 - Lionel Messi - v1

[Plip]

Wtf everyone? Take a chill pill the lot of you

33 goals and 15 assists this season

He got a player sent off . Scored 2 goals . What more do you want?

Some want him to dribble past 6 players all day, every day.

33 goals and 16 assists. *

these yellow cards have nothing to do with CDR right?

 

[gingerless]

it's pretty absurd that anyone can doubt him after a grand total of... 1 'bad' game this season

33 goals and 15 assists thus far is like a fart in the wind for these people

Yes.

afaik: only straight reds (and 2nd yellow ofc) apply to the CDR. Means: If he would have gotten his second yellow yesterday, he would miss the next match (and this would be el classico). Now if he gets his fifth yellow card before the CDR return leg, he still could play.

please correct me if I'm wrong.

Halfway through a "poor" season and he has stats that blow almost anyone else's full season stats out the water. He's also on course to achieve his best ever return (yet again). If this is his bad season I can't wait for the next one!

 

[jamrock]

needs to start scoring away from home

 

[Yaotzin]

Yeah but everyone needs to perform better away from home. It's a general team issue, not just him.

Annoying that right as we start performing well away in Europe our domestic away form goes to hell

FFS, no one is doubting Messi.

just noting that his effort, bodylanguage in a couple of recent games does not look like Messi.

Are we not allowed to notice and mention that he has become slower compared to seasons gone by and question if it is to do with him putting on more upper body muscle weight?

while i agree. i think the muscle weight has nothing to do with it really. players have bad games. and he has. just a matter of bouncing back better then ever

Unforgivable... he needs to go. Ship him for City or RM.

He has had several chances by now. Missed penalty against Sevilla and huge chance away to Getafe. Ans his performance against Espanyol was the straw that broke the camel's back. Sell!

Ha, only 33 goals and 15 assists? Sell now! We can get Agüero or Van Persie to replace him.

Messi scored against Getafe, but the referee disallowed it. This goal was good.
Messi played well yesterday. ok, he made some stupid mistakes, but he helped a lot.
He had 2 wonderful balls, to Iniesta and Abidal. He scored two goals. The Betis player was sent off the pitch because of him.

He helped a lot to win the Valencia, Real Sociedad football matches. He gave wonderful balls to his mates, but they couldn't score.

Ronaldinho did the exact same thing the ..season after he was brought to Barca i think. He "bulked" up, became heavier and it hurt his speed and play a bit, then he lost some weight, became less bulky and regained his amazingness again
