Flavia, that stat thread misses
Cdr - 1/2 1st leg
Villarreal 1 - 3 FC Barcelona

Or am I blind?

No, it was missing from the index. Thanks. But the post for that match is there.

Seems I have 1 assist less in 2005/06 season. Copa del Rey match.
Still 1 left.

Nothing as difficult as defining an assist when it comes to stats, according to some the "assist "of Diego Costa tonight is more of an assist than Messi's for Suarez against Atletico in the copa del rey.
but despite all the different criteria there are not many who compare with Messi to assist so many at age 27, let alone the dribbling and goalscoring that he also adds.

To all of you who collect Messi's stats. Can you please post your season based stats on him?


Season - Games - Goals - Assists

Even though he has multiple tattoos, he still doesn't strike me as a tattoo guy. I don't mind it, but still.

What is that Tattoo about?

 

[Gnidrologist]

Never understood the point of tatoos. In ancient times they were meant to indicate something - like being a part of a clan or having certain standing in hierarchy here or there. Or as a reminder of crucial happening in one's life. Now they are nothing but cheap luxury that doesn't mean anything and it hardly adorns one's body.
People, who get tatoos at young age with hardly any life experience behind their shoulders are mostly hipsters and wannabees.

What's your problem with tattoos ? I don't get the fuss about Messi getting tattoos, if you ever lived in Argentina (or brazil for that matter) you'd know that almost EVERYONE there has a tattoo, hell I've even been to a Mall in Sao Paulo that has over 100 tattoo shops, an entire Mall for just tattoos and piercings, just like fashion it's another way to distinguish ones self and "customize" your body, I'm surprised he doesn't have more, look at Pocho for example

 

[KyletheMuslim]

Not a fan of tattoos But he is still the GOAT, as long as they don't affect his game I don't really care

That's my main problem with tatoos in modern times. They mean nothing. Just another way to disfigure your body, like thrusting rings in your nose or nipples. Tasteless.
I would say the same about ridiculous haircuts, especially when one changes them every few months. Neymar and Alves being usual suspects. Guess i'm just old-fashioned grumpy jerk about this.

 

[Morten]

He is just not the type for it, but he do what he wants ofc. Personally i dont understand one bit what is so appealing about it either.

Douglas what a player.

They do mean something for the people who get one. Just because you don't understand it, it doesn't mean they have no meaning.

Btw, Mehssi, tattoos are not that popular here in Brazil.

So, when will we see you with a Neymar tattoo?
