Messi is ahead of Ronaldo in 2021 so far but Portugal plays Azerbaijan and Luxembourg in the coming break while conmebol matches are cancelled
He'll attack them with the ferocity of a CL KO game.

He basically showed that it's all about how good he is feeling/his interest how many goals he puts up (granted there were other factors too at the beginning of the season with our team still getting used to the formations/new players).
Can easily play 2-3 more seasons after this at Barca at 30 plus goals IMO. We really need to sign Haaland and a CB because I think we can make a serious push for CL next season when Bayern will likely be on the wane.

You're welcome
What the hell is this list? You're telling me Leo is the 4th forward with most km's in this years CL?
A lot of names missing from that list.

I think they just looked at some big names...no way is Messi running 9th most in any CL edition.
Anyway, the criticism in the past was lack of effort and to me Messi gave more than enough effort in the PSG tie. Don't care what he runs when this happens.

Not everyone on here is like this though, to be fair.
This is why you should never question this dude or say he is finished until he says it himself. I only did this once back in 2014 and then Bayern happened.
Last point I will make, go back to the beginning of the rebuild thread. A lot of people were saying long-term we cannot rebuild with Messi then, we should ditch him for Greizmann and I hope people now see why he is essential to the rebuild process. It isn't just what he does on the field, the interview Ilaix's father had where he talked about how much Messi has made Ilaix feel welcome and calm by talking and joking around with him, you really cannot underestimate how essential it is for these players to be playing with him and seeing in a way, what is possible as a footballer.
The same thing happened with him and Ronaldinho and that proximity to his genius when he was that young has played a huge role in helping Messi reach the heights he has now. This can have a ripple-effect over time for us if players like potentially Haaland, Ansu, Pedri, Puig and Ilaix (and who knows, Gavi and Collado soon?) can have the same sort of exposure and this can really help us not just have one player who inherits some of Messi's traits.
Last few months have proven just how crazy Barto was for trying to drive him out and is yet another example on why you never doubt the GOAT
