Lionel Messi - v7

ThwiX

Best midfielder around
One thing I really missed this season was his goals from outside the box. Best in the world at them and I barely remember him even trying them this season. They are all about perfect placement and curve when it comes to Leo, contrary to other players who are all about power.

think about messi won the golden boot in 2013 scoring 46 goals and 42 of them were from open play, the only time he won it with more than 5 or 6 penalty he finished with 50 goals lmao.

Because our shitty midfield. They create nothing.

Spot on. You know there is a problem with creativity in your midfield when, riqui has more assists than a couple of the regulars by playing in only a handful of games. Messi does the same thing with Argentina as they also lack creativity. Didn't have to drop back earlier in his career at Barca as xavi and iniesta were running the show from deep.

I agree with all this, but I'd like to add that midfield having to cover for 2 defensive walkers (L&L) doesn't help. Our midfield is too old for that. If 8 players do the work of 9 defensively... We are dead tired even sooner.

If befirehand, you would make a short list of clubs he is most likely to join Psg and inter would be on top due to locations .
Messi is in milan several times a year as well and obviously likes the city.

It could happen, the buying of the house should raise eyebrowes but not more than that at this point.
