Lionel Messi - v7

[snowy]

How many forwards have really flourished alongside Messi? Players like Coutinho, Zlatan, Griezmann, Dembele, Dybala and Aguero have been lost or not able to find their own role.

Neymar did well but Messi went out of his way to accommodate him and his friendship with Suarez helped him settle but Suarez has been hopeless since Neymar left.

Combine Messi's passing ability and vision with any fast, talented CFs, Wingers and you'd get more goals than you could scribe on the giant board. yeah thx fellas

Zlatan's stats with us were pretty decent. His issue was mainly with Pep who couldn't handle the Ferrari that he was jaj
Sure it could've worked with Messi with a bit more positivity and concerted effort.

let's not 4get these 2 bad boyz

Griezmann and Dybala are literally budget Messi, same roles, same spaces, etc..

how tf do you expect them to perform good with him when their role is taken by a player who is several times better at almost everything they do lmao. It's now Messi fault to just exist ?, Barca and Argentina have to build around them instead of Lio ?

The ultimate escape goat

go "find sources of players talking about Messi personality in the lockerroom" you absolute muppet

In a properly moderated barcaforum some of your posts the last 2 pages should have you banned.

Even in this forum there's no democracy ? Let him believe what he want to believe. You don't need to agree with his opinion anyway, even if it sound stupid

While tattoos probably aren't beneficial, there's no evidence it reduces performance, and if it does the 5 % number is ridiculous.

Lebron James is 35, covered in tattoos and still a physical specimen like no other.

Roids or PEDs. BBall players get away with it

Previous managers and players like Zlatan admitted that they had to build the team around Messi, accommodate for Messi, adjust for Messi. They even said it is understandable and expected because it works.

Today the return on sacrifice is not worth it it seems. Barto the clown just said few minutes ago that Koeman?s new project will be built around Messi and thats why Messi will stay. Is this what we want, another project build around Messi too? How long will this project last? Two years max? Very longterm thinking it seems

Barto has always been about Messi and the short term anyway. That's why we're in this mess in the first place.
We haven't heard a peep from Messi.
I hope he makes up his mind quickly on whether he's staying or leaving. We need to move fast and make big decisions just to stay relevant. Forget about Ll and cl.

Tattoos reduce athletes performance every year by 5%

There's a reason Ronaldo doesn't have even a a single one.

Biggest mistake Messi made was getting a tattoo on his golden left foot.

Having a username like "Messigician" in a internet forum reduces your IQ by 20%.
"Google it bro it's true"

Sometimes you just need a bit of luck and things to go your way. If he had that at international level, he could have easily been a world cup winner and multiple Copa America winner today. It's not like they weren't close, they lost the WC final in extra time and the copas on penalties.

Yeah I will never forget the WC final. Unfortunately Argentinia played 120min against Netherlands while Germany only played 90min (well they could chill after 45min) and had one day more to recover. Messi, Palacio and HIGUAIN had fantastic chances to score a goal.

Griezmann is a budget Messi??? Griezmann is a bum!

Btw, who is Messi blaming for the loss? And the difficulties? Bartomeu, Semedo, Griez, Dembele, Lenglet, Umtiti etc right?

I assume he doesn't want his amigos to leave, right? That would mean Vidal, Alba, Suarez and Busi would be thrown out. Not sure who likes Rakitic, he might belong to any of these groups.

Who is Messi blaming??? What he wants to be changed?

If he doesn't blame the amigos, he needs to go too..

Messi needs to realise that he is a legend of the club, but at this point he needs to be an added value to a team that can function without him. Needs to rest games. Needs to realise that this is a job and not always your closest friends remain your co-workers.

Exactly. When I look at both lists, Messis amigos are basically all done. The non-amigos are still fairly good while not perfect.

His amigos need to go with Raki and Umtiti.

Dembele is not worth selling.

Endure leo. He deserves a proper farewell after all he has done, not like this. One or two more seasons leo with one last hurray in cl and liga title

If the amigos stay there's not going to be any "hurraaa".

I think he blame the board only. I bet he would never give Suarez away.
