10 - Lionel Messi - v4

[NotInHere]

Don't forget that it's the same people with the ridiculous argument that "messi needs to play in more leagues to prove himself" yet when he's linked with them he's not someone who comes to prove himself but a global superstar and the best player in the world that will elevate bpl's standing.

Typical case of sour grapes if you ask me.

can you imagine messi in a league like the epl, with all that open space. Messi could possibly be the player that changes the way teams defend in the elp for the better

But could he do it on a cold rainy night against Stoke?

The argument of Messi not doing it in other leagues has virtually gone other from the staunchest Ronaldo fans.

Most people I know that used to say that type of thing now accept he is the best player in world if not all time and would love him at their clubs.

Used to hear it all the time from Man Utd fans. Was easy to ask them if Seedorf was better than Scholes and they were stuck.

Messi would never make it in the EPL unless he's linked to one of their clubs then all of a sudden the same people start worshipping him.

Winning the Champions League might have confused you, but this is 2015. Not 2011.

Maybe you're just listening to too much Michael Owen.

Michael Owen is just one example. I still hear that same shit all the time. He's not complete, too weak, no headers, no right foot, La Liga defenders are pussies.

ahh I do remember you talking about Belgian commentators. Anyway, I haven't heard that argument for a very long time, either from fans, pundits or players.

I dislike xavi more and more.

I dislike xavi more and more.

Because he says Messi is the greatest player in history?

 

[Barcaman]

Funny how odds on Barca slashed once Messi was seen training

No.
Because it's obvious he's shaping up to become a bullshit PR man, in this case how cristiano pushed messi forward...
The move to qatar, his support for the qatar world cup, I mean, they still have literal slaves there and xavi has no qualms supporting them.
I don't like him at all now.
