10 - Lionel Messi - v5

[DonAndres]

Fucking beast today, pulled all the strings and was the best player by far. Had more touches and impact than Ronaldo vs PSG after literally 32 minutes today, aside from the two clown goals Ronaldo was gifted.

If he didn't have the likes of Paulinho/Rakitic to weigh the team down he would've done even better. He buried literally the only real chance he got.

 

[NotInHere]

Good game given the circumstances, he couldn't break free from their defenders but still did great stuff throughout the match.

Messi has scored against Buffon for the first time in this years groupstage. Expect him to do the same vs Chelsea. If not today he'll do it at Camp Nou.

Told ya.

 

[CatalinR10]

Saw some replays from first half , every time he got the ball there were like 7 players sorounding him on the next 10 meters .

Suprised he managed to score in this game .

 

[JamDav1982]

Played well but other than Chelsea fuck up didnt look all that much a threat.

Could have had an assist as well If Paulinho finished.

He needs to be in final third more and on end of things. Is not a playmaker.

 

[Xaviniesta]

Was actually really good considering he had 5 players on him at all times

 

[pregra]

Nice to see him score again. Decent performance actually,considering he has no one to combine with unless he’s inside his own half. Our team is just dross these days,we have so many players who don’t offer anything at all.

 

[Windhook]

New boots, a classic Messi goal. He was so motivated today to grab some, really made the difference, still being marked by some of the great DM's in football.

 

[Kerrybai]

Fucking legend. Get in.

 

[SeloBarca]

Him and Iniesta pretty much playing alone against Chelsea in attack.

 

[Hardy]

The streak is overrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Lionel Messi scored

 

[Much2soon]

Good goal today but can he take a shot sometimes? His goal felt like the only shot he took all game. I know Chelsea was defending him well but there were a few times that he could have gotten a decent shot off but hesitated then the shot was no longer there anymore.

 

[Leong157]

I think he was really good too. Schooled Kante,Rudiger,Christensen. Dropped deep and distributed ball quite well.

Every time he received the ball, our others 5-6 players bar iniesta and Busq just stand still. No movement whatsoever. I would be frustated as hellif I were him.

 

[clemente]

Finally broke that dumbass curse, just feels so good after how much Chelsea fans are milking that shit. The problem with Messi is he has literally nothing to work with, Roberto on the right and Paulinho on the left lmao, I hope this is a wake up call for EV to force in Semedo with Dembele no matter how much he dislikes them.

 

[Faceless]

Glad he finally scored in Stamford Bridge.
