10 - Lionel Messi - v5

[CatalinR10]

so unlucky ffs

 

[Horatio]

He looks fit AF. Going to be a pretty good season for him.

 

[ini4ever]

His best position seems false 9 again.
I'd prefer 4-3-3 with Messi as false 9 and Denis/Deulofeu as wingers.

 

[ThwiX]

Penaldo won't have much to have to cAtch up on for pichichi.

Well, of course not. Messi got no one feeding him easy goals.

 

[gasgas]

I liked him at false 9

With Dembele and Seri on the team, he will have more and more chances to score

yh , he'll destroy the PL

 

[G_6O]

They're always half chances he has to set up for himself. Nobody ever sets him up.

This.

He hit the post from a FK, and from two shots outside the box. Barely any clear chances.

Which is why this win should not be grounds for celebration, we won and the press look good, but creatively we are very far from where we have to be

 

[ronniecro]

his body language kinda shows that he's not happy

 

[te amo barca]

Messi always pre-assisted his own goals. It's been this way since he has become a false 9 under Pep. However, a creative midfielder will certainly help him have more chances.

That's why he should be win balon dor every season for the last ten years.

Around 80% of his goals are like half chances.


* also those big glue boots he wearing seem like they have steel in them. It must be weighing him down.

Yes, he looks frustrated, anyone would be.
No players make proper runs for him too pass too, when he makes runs no player has the ability to find him and pass to him.. there is no one capable that can do 1-2 quick passing with him, something which was key to our success with messi linking up with xavi, iniesta, suarez and neymar.

We need to sell all the dead weight and buy new players or else it will be a very bad season.. we are lucky that messi is loyal and loves barcelona, most players in his position would have left the team alrdy (ie neymar)

 

[booge]

poor messi. maybe this is ablessing in disguise for when he goes to the world cup.
If he can learn to play in this piss of a team , it might be him feel he is playing in a dream team with Argentina.

 

[Mitchell1978]

Was terribly inlucky today, disagree that he looked unmotivated.

Madrid's win over us have also mostly been shots from outside the box.

 

[RevoTeller]

Man of the match, as (almost) always.
