Honestly, his durability is insane. The more I review the tackle, the more I'm convinced he's made of adamantium. He also had some of the highest acceleration I've seen in a player from 2005-2009 (definitely the highest with the ball).

2005-2010 Messi's acceleration with the ball was fucking ridiculous. Anyone else remember that insane Villarreal game he had back in 2007/2008? Pure menacing speed with the most perfect ball retention.

His acceleration was insane up until 2012 or so, i'd say, and it was still good after that for 2-3 years.

Only player i think was about as good in terms of technical dribbling was Iniesta, he just didnt have that burst of acceleration to make him as threatening.

He accomplished everything he needed to. He doesn't owe anyone anything. And if he wants to live and play like his mentor post-Barca Ronaldinho in his twilight years, then he's allowed to.

He has a chance to reach undisputed GOAT status (already is for me, but for the majority) if he wins another CL with strong performances in the WC.
