Lionel Messi - v7

[giorgoXXI]

And to think so many in this forum wanted him to leave...

I could tell from the first 5 minutes the team would be useless without him.

reality:
Messi proves to be the only way for Barcelona to try to be competitive, also thanks to Ter Stegen. In a league where Suarez is the decisive player.

Barcaforum narrative:
Messi is the reason why barcelona plays badly,
Ter Stegen a clown,
Suarez a monkey, a former player.

Watch the first 5-10 games of the season from Messi and you understand. He was brutal. Lack of motivation. He is motivated now and looks good.

Also another bad idea, relying on an aging WC player. Form is temporary but class is permanent. However don't expect Messi to bail out the team like he has in the past in crucial matches.

That will be the least of our problems. Let's hope his supporting cast are at least decent.

Not even top 3 in the world they've said

"farce of a player"

Our savior! Without Messi, Bar?a is not worth watching. Please keep him happy, we need him a few more years!

Been the best player in the world in 2021 so far

he'd be ballon d'or favorite if not for the dross around him

Depends if the rest of the team is too shitty to begin with

it's always been like this for since a decade ... just people are blind .

Even Ronaldinho couldn't have smiled !!

Imagine turning up to training and instead of your buddy Suarez, you find Griezmann and Braithwaite.

Fuck me, Suarez at least was cooking some world class steaks

I don't blame him but it was tough to watch compared what we are used to. He is human after all.

Messi bailed us but we mostly suffered from the starting midfield. A Busquets, De Jong and Pedri from the go would've been a different game.

The last time we could rest Messi and not expect such a massive drop in quality was when Neymar was here.

Yes a differently boring game
