I said slowly, not completely. Obviously he can still make stuff happen when the situation is right, but him and his teammates seem to be out of sync all of the sudden, why exactly? Is Leo's contribution slowly diminishing before our eyes? Are the Barcelona players not giving him the right passes.. Fact is, Leo has not been the same these past few games..He was not pratically invisible for all three games because he chose to. People deal with frustrations differently, but the way the team is setup is wrong. Barça is not playing well for a long time. tata chose to let Messi in rw vs atletico, so simeone had it easier to isolate them. And right now he's not the focal point of attack anymore. Not that I know who is, everything is a mess and disjointed. That's on the coach. As it was when roura was in charge.
rotting? seriouly... some weeks ago you were praising him for the game vs rm. Now he's rotting. You guys are more unstable with your opinions than the weather in jupiter.

Nobody is blaming this all on him, don't be silly. Its a team sport, but he is part of the problem.

Is just Messi that is poor? No. The team is lost. No guidance. It's not just Messi who hasn't been the same the past three games. It's everyone. Something very serious is going on.

Don't get him at all. Amid all the criticism, he refuses to respond and shut up his critics. 63 minutes in, 0 dribbles won, just 3 shots. Pathetic.
Just why?? If refuses to perform, he is adding zero value to our team.

Do you seriously think he is not performing on purpose? And maybe all the stupid criticism got to him, and his response to it was negative this time.
it is not about playing bad, being out of form, it's about working rate
at the moment it's basically zero and that is a problem

He's clearly more interested in the world cup. Just doesn't make THOSE sort of runs anymore.

Until he's playing with a proper coach and team again, there's no way to know that he is "not the same". He is not the focal point of attack anymore.

Its not as if Leo is just another player that needs to be positioned like a child always to make those runs. He is THE BEST PLAYER in the world. He doesn't need a coach to tell him to position himself. He should have run through Pepe and Ramos, like the rest of Liga has done. He just isn't the same anymore, accept it.
