Ronaldo is on a different level physically and mentally.

it's amazing you've managed to stick around here with your trolling for so long. it's much more subtler than that of others, for sure.
Ronaldo will easily get 100 goals and break the record too.
Messi should play in Copa as it's the last chance of a trophy for him. If they play the likes of Dybala, Lo Celso, Lanzini and Icardi they've got a chance.
I think he's probably waiting to see who the next coach is and what his plans are.

Me stating facts is trolling? I wish Leo would play through to 2022 world cup too

actually remember your posts after the croatia game in the WC and even before during the neymar transfer saga. but like I said, you're more subtle than the others, so kudos.
Its also useful in finding out how much depth do the team has, or how could they play and win without him. Currently, the are even more dependent on Messi than Barca.
Or It could also be a standoff against Sampaoli, who knows.

good, pointless friendlies anyway, better to rest that and prepare for barça games

If Messi decides to stop playing for Argentina, he needs to stop playing for Argentina for good. If he decides to resume his NT career after an announcement that he ends it like he did the last time, the media will have too much fun.

I'm happy he is skipping meaningless Friendlies. That's good.

From another topic:
Imo, he has clearly lost some of his pace and acceleration.
Again, if we would have to estimate in numbers, if his pace was 8 and acceleration 10 in the past, today his pace is at 7 and acceleration at 7.
That's just my personal estimation.
Also, if you watch old matches, you will see those little bursts in the first few steps which aren't here anymore.
Or when he is tackled, in the past he needed, let's say 0,3 seconds to react and try to win the ball back, while today he needs let's say 0,6 seconds to react.
I mean, that's not only him, every single human gets slower in reactions, movement and everything with age. I know that he is not 60, but if you are older than 30, then you probably know by your personal reactions that you are physically a few miliseconds slower in every reaction that as a teen or in early 20s.
Now, some videos, and I guess that you will see that a lot of things from these videos don't exist in Messi's play anymore.
Also, in these old matches, it seems that he worked harder in defense and off the ball. He wasn't walking as much as in the last few years.
His feet were way faster also.
Anyway, check by yourself:
