Yes, that was kind of what I meant. There's a number of issues. Because Messi scores a shitload of goals, a lot of people tend to reduce him to that and forget his exquisite playmaking, assisting, vision, passing.... Then, because he's only ever played for Barcelona, a lot of people tend to accuse him of only being able to play in a team that is built around him. And most importantly, and that is what I had in mind when writing that, Messi has been so consistent over the past years that most people are used to him being a God, thereby forgetting how incredible he actually is. He has basically been showing what most other great players cannot even do in their peak every year, for four years now. Or longer. In fact Messi's legend status has taken the attention away from him as a player.
I'm a she by the way.
