10 - Lionel Messi - v2

[CatalinR10]

I think you guys are being silly, celebrating after a goal in such a minor thing and indicates very little about someone's personality, you're all pumped up after you score and often just do it on autopilot, without really thinking, "Hmm, I wonder how I'll celebrate this time around...", I've known plenty of people whose personality wasn't at all indicated by their celebrations.

There are 1000 ways to celebrate but he almost always points to himself ( at least when I watch him play ) .

Nah, you're being naive here. It is the case with him.

Celebrations are for the most part very subconscious and spontaneous. For the most part they reflect exactly how the player is and how he feels simply because in the euphoria of the moment the player forgets any type of filter or wall he might employ to hide to the rest of the world what his personality really is.
That Ronaldo is at his most annoying self when he celebrates goals is no coincidence.

I don't really feel that way when I play soccer though, maybe it's just me but I don't see a person pounding his chest and think they're narcissistic, I have plenty of confident/arrogant friends who celebrate normally, and then I have "humble" friends who celebrate like they're really happy.

It's not because this is accurate for cr that it is automatically for anyone else. But for him it is, and we know he's like that not only because of his celebrations.

Good thing Messi wasn't there otherwise he'd get re-injured from eating all that meat.

Barca players following Messi's path to injure themselves with bad diet only to suport Messi more .

Funny how Messi and Ribery are pointing to someone else and Cristina is pointing to herself, hahaha...

haha I did that on purpose
I couldn't find a pic for Ribery pointing to himself!

 

[Chainsaw]

Messi becoming a father could have a hand in his recent injuries as well. He can't have enough sleep as before. Less rest, more fragile to the injuries.

I actually couldn't find a picture of Messi pointing to himself... .

Low blow man.

they should include the minutes played also! That comparison is not fair!
Stats should be per 90 minutes not games!

I was a bit surprised that CR7 is outranking Messi in key passes per game. But then again, given the definition of a key pass (pass that led to a shot at goal by a teammate), it probably speaks more to the fact that RM in general has more shots than us.

And Ribery at dribbles per game..

 

[KhaledBarca]

And Ribery at dribbles per game..

Problem with these stats, degree of difficulty and quality aren't taken into account! Which is not fair to Messi.
