10 - Lionel Messi - v4

[Mitchell1978]

Are people still quoting whoscored for accurate performances on the pitch?

I think Messi was also the top rated player from all top 5 leagues on squawka.

 

[ini4ever]

Fuck Ballon d'Or.

 

[Alik]

Geez, we still have more than half a year to go. Give it a rest.

 

[El Flaco]

Really hope he wins the Copa this summer. It'll be a travesty if he retires without making a mark for his country. I will forever hold a grudge against Higuain for his pathetic performance in the 2014 World Cup Final too.

Don't forget Rodrigo Palacio, his performance was just as bad as Higuain in that match.

Hopefully Huguain is a better striker today. His amazing feat in serie A better reflects at copa too. To me, physically, he looks skinner now.. probably lost some weight.

Messi will win Copa.

Argentina can barely beat Honduras. Unless they decide to get rid of Tata tommorow, Messi is unlikely to win it.

Messi has scored more goals this year than ronaldo and he has more assist too + Messi won two titles and ronaldo only one so Messi is favourite to win ballondor

Not that simple, really. The Champions League is rated much higher than domestic competitions, especially by people outside the actual football community.

If Messi is to win it, then he need to win the Copa America and have a great autumn. It's all about the momentum going in to the voting season. A lot of people in the Football World with short-term memories.

This year out of all years I really don't expect Messi to get the Ballon. If Suarez wins Copa then he gets it, if Ronaldo wins Euros he gets it. Otherwise it's a toss up.

I agree. If the voters haven't already lost their shit about Cristina scoring a penalty in a penalty shootout, this will be decided by how the two of them play Sep-Nov.

I don't. I watch matches. That's how I know that Messi's the best.

I agree that Whoscored does mess up things, but at least they count. You can say that but so does Christiano's. Until there is someone who keeps record of every passes, dribbles etc for let say Messi or Cristiano and they are available to be viewed by many people, and it is done consistenly throughout the whole season then statements are still considered biased, subjective. It would be safer for manybpeople to consider those as merely opinion.
