I don't know, man, how could Enrique didn't play Rakitic and or Turan? Have they gone so low? I still think they're better players than let's say Denis or Andre.
Why I mention them in Messi's thread? It's that because of the absence of a dependable middle players that Messi has to drop deep to distribute the fuckin ball.
He had a bad time in freekicks though, I have to admit.
Put the Madrid midfield and full backs in the current side and things would be different. The one thing I do not like about Messi is his sheer laziness. There's no Xavi or Iniesta (Peak) to drive the midfield anymore, it means he needs to command the ball and find spaces to the simpletons who currently play in midfield can find him, he still goes hiding by the opposition and walks around.
It's frustrating as fuck. Play like that on Tuesday Vs Juventus and he'll be a passenger.
Gomes should be sold on this miss alone. People get really angry when our player fails to convert a 1v1 but its not as easy as it seems. But at least the player should try hitting close to the target even if he misses or at least attempt a shot. What the fuck was gomes doing?
