Lionel Messi - v7

[eaman]

Great goal and nice dedication of it to Maradona

What a goal and GOAT celebration!

I reckon that was an actual match worn shirt from Maradona, Messi has a crazy shirt collection.

A well rested Messi is still the best player! I hope Koeman gets it now.

He had two Maradona tributes today, the first one where he almost hand balled the ball into the net when Braithwaite scored

MOTM

Obvioulsy there isn't a big enough sample size , but him getting rested against Kiev might have actually helped.

Say for instance he hadn't scored that goal, how would you (anybody on here) have rated him?

People were saying he was having a great game in the first half already, before his goal. He was very good today even without the goal, his passing finally sharp.

Top game with or without the goal. Better movement than usual, dribbling was very reliable, and almost no errors and bad giveaways. Kept his position better as well.

I dont think his movement was any different to other games this season. If anything he probably made less runs. I dont think the distance covered would be any different

The biggest difference today for Messi (and Griezmann) was... Braithwaite. He needs a number 9 to drag defenders away and play 1-2s against. Have a feeling Braithwaite will be a regular starter now.

 

[sikkboy]

Still had him as MOTM even without the goal. Goal was just the icing on the cake.

Yes, definitely.

Just got caught up after starting the match late. He looked pretty damn good today!

Maybe giving him a game off every once and a while can rejuvenate him.

Not Koeman, when you guys understand that messi is the one who doesnt want to rest. Hopefully he also understands that he is better with rest.
