10 - Lionel Messi - v3

[Morten]

a couple of seasons ago, Messi would've scored a hat-trick in this match.

And 5-10 years ago he would have dribbled past anyone from midfield to the box and slotted it in. Dissapointing he doesnt do that much anymore.

Its not all about goals.

True. And the false belief that it is has given the most overrated player I've seen in 40+ years 3 Balon d'Ors.

Pretty long interview with Messi after the game here on Sport. Click the image for the video to start (weird, I know):

I can only understand bits and pieces, but those of you who know Catalan might get more out of it.

I'm very happy to see the Master being back to his full best.

You could compile Ronaldo's skills (not goals) over the course of an entire year and it wouldn't come anywhere near the level of what we saw from Messi in that match alone. That's why Messi is the master and is in another galaxy all together when it comes to football.

Have to wonder where the atoms that make up Messi came from, they sure as hell didn't come from the same place that every other human got theirs from.

Was Lucho the first coach to put Messi back to RW and actually keep him there throughout the match? I recall a few games last season where Messi started off as an RW, but it was apparent 5 mins into the game that he kept going back into the mid.
