He ain't playing today ?


SMH.


He could have travelled and play last 30 mins to score a goal 100%.


Don't know if I should even bother watching the game.

He's had to travel a lot the last couple of months with the national team, wise to avoid another long haul flight. He should be fresh for the weekend.

beats playing him for 90 minutes in Madrid after just coming back from Peru.

He looks really sad and honestly for his own good he should just sit out the season if he is that unhappy. I don't want to see him so sad. Let him sign whatever contract he wants with City or another team and leave. Don't force a player to stay at the club. I'm sure he is clearly done with Barca.

GOAT. Completely focused on the training and clearly unhappy about the club's recent results while everyone else is laughing, petting and fist bumping each other, having fun and not giving a shit about anything while sitting at 13th place in La Liga.

Agreed. Not a good look for them.

this first half was the most boring half i saw in a a long time.



Messi in a chair sitting at the middle of the field would have made the game 10 times more interesting

If only Messi were not playing tonight, we would be so much more fluid with better shape and more sound defensively. Koeman must take off Messi immediately.

You think you're making a clever argument but if anything you're proving the point you're trying to mock. We were very sound defensively because we defended and pressed with 10 men.

No, I think it is because Dynamo were just going to sit back regardless whether Messi was playing or not. Anyhow, Messi should not have played today because he could use the rest.

But this insistence that this team plays without Messi is idiotic.

What now? Playing much better in the second half. And you're kidding yourself if you think one man not pressing and defending doesn't make a difference.

All this gloating for barely 1 half of football against Kyiv.

Messi's benefits outweigh his drawbacks. He is the best chance for this team to try and get top 4 this year, and then next year hopefully a new board can start their project, either with Messi or without him.

I'm not saying that one game against an Eastern European team proves anything, not the argument.

No, his current benefit doesn't outweigh his drawbacks
