Barca was going to win the league without Messi....

Just think for a moment, if Messi is truly a GOAT impact player wouldn't Barca suffer without him?

2013/2014 La liga stat:

Barca's winning record with Messi: 94% (34 out of 36 pts)

yeah compare 6 games to 12..What a stupid stats..Barca has had similar winning stats with or without messi..Stop trying to pull out the most convenient stats..

If messi played for Napoli in the 90's or late 80's..Napoli would be a mid level club at best...He's not an impact player that's a fact..

So the fact that Barca loses more points without Messi in half the games is a convenient stat somehow? :lol

You do realize that if Barca were to play 6 more games without Messi and win them all (very improbable thing), the record with Messi would still be > than the record without him right?

BTW lol at the best player in the World not being an impact player. :lol

Lastly, if Maradona was such an impact player, why he couldn't win shit with stacked teams such as Boca, Barcelona and the '82 Argentina National Team (the most stacked Argie NT of all-time).

- Barcelona : he had a short stint there and was let go because of a brawl :lol Barcelona doesnt like fighting, faggots :lol lol letting one of the 2 GOATS walk away :lol
- 82 Argie team: Argentina was eliminated by Brazil, a game in which Diego was ejected because of that faggot Batista :lol ........ and at least Diego scored 2 goals in the WC in the 82 WC ............... how many goals has Messi scored in the WC ????? RIght, no Xavi, no Iniesta, so nada :lmao :lmao :lmao

For Argentina and South America standards as stacked as it got.

P/S: Yeah, the guy that holds the record for goals scored with the Argie NT on a calendar year and that has already passed Maradona in the Argie NT all-time scoring list and will probably top the list when is all said and done is a scrub in National team level. Nice goal post move, btw.

tbh, the fact is that if he doesn't win the WC, he's gonna be thrown under the bus... so saying he needs to play a "dominant" WC is kinda baloney... even if he happens to win it, I'm sure some haters still gonna hate, IMO...

Argentina is going in with the same questions on defense... the attack always been solid, and the middle decent, but the back 4 and keepers are always sleeping...

I don't think he needs to win a wc. A lot of the greatest players didn't win it starting by cruyff, platini etc but they still played dominant and marked a wc. Messi still needs to achieve that. IMO fwiw

Hell, his one of those players that even if he doesn't win the World Cup, people will still regard him as the best of all time. He just needs to perform in a spectacular fashion in the World Cup. Hard to argue against all the records his breaking and all that he has won in Barcelona.

Pele is kinda hard to evaluate but as for Maradona even if you are too young you can see all his games during the wc same with franz platini Socrates and co. It's not that hard to make up your mind on your own.

Sadly i never get to watch Pele/Maradona/Cruyff/Beckenbauer/Platini and so on. So it's hard to say who is better. Just can say which is the best (imo) in the time i witnessed.

Not saying that they have some power that we don't, its just that they dedicate their life to that purpose.

But the majority of them of course say that without a World Cup, Messi can't be considered the best.

Though I always wondered why they count Pele's 1,000 goals, I highly doubt he scored that many goals in official matches, hell he probably doesn't approach that number when you take into account friendlies. Impossible

[Jodelo]

It's common knowledge that Pele counted his friendly games to his goal total.

Not totally true, nobody in Europe is contesting pele and maradona being the two greatest honestly, on the contrary Europeans are often attracted by South America myth or exotism tbh. Europeans are much more critics of their own players than South American French being a good example of that. French have been lucky to get some of the greatest artists / creators in football history: zizou, platini, Tigana, canto, ginola etc... But for them it's never enough.

Messi will go down as one of the best with a WC or not. When it's all said and done he will be the top scorer of the CL, of the Spanish league, of Barca and of the Argie NT. He will probably end up being the top assister too. You can't deny that just 'cause he didn't have a great performance on a tournament that consists of 7 games played every 4 years.

:lmao @your 7 games played every 4 years like that's some random shit. It's the biggest sport event on earth.

If he failed again on the wc he will never be in the conversation than maradona or pele or others.

Btw I hear you on the cl but cl new format is very different today than few years ago so that achievement is relative, regarding Argie NT I'm pretty sure Argentineans will exchange that for fewer goals and a great wc for a change.

Not saying he is not great at all on the contrary.

Comparing him to pele or maradona is foolish not recognizing he is special is also foolish.

[gnsf0946]

I sort of agree with DAF although it's a bit premature to rank him anywhere since he's only 26 although I do think unlike other players who peak at ~28 he has or is peaking.

In any case, needing a WC to be GOAT is dumb as hell. These days you can't win with a team that has 3-4 very good, great players, you need stacked teams and we are seeing one of the greatest NT of all time (duh Spain)...even Germany with all its talent can't even get to the finals (chokers tbh) because it takes luck and some stars to align to win it all...Spain barely won in 2010 in case you forgot.

Messi having a very good, great showing in this WC would definitely help his case for top 3 and imo top 2 because Pele is overrated as fuck tbh, football version of Bill Russell.

[Brazil]

Have a look at European cup / champions league, in terms of goal per game which is more relevant than total goals Messi is not the best, gerd muller is with puskas and di stefano. It does not mean Messi is a scrub just that people have short memory.

Just look at 1960 UCL (puskas and di stefano biggest stars in it):

Semifinals:
Eintracht Frankfurt-Rangers > 12:4 on aggregate
Real Madrid-Barcelona > 6:2 on aggregate

Finals:
Real Madrid-Eintracht Frankfurt > 7:3 (one game!)

Those are ridiculous margins, the likes of which you won't see today.

edit: I do agree though that Messi hasn't surpassed Di Stefano...in fact I consider Di Stefano the GOAT with Diego a close 2nd

Holland made a final not sure what's your point. Don't act like Argentina is a team full of scrubs and nobody is asking him to win a wc all by himself you can make a big impact in a wc without winning it.

messi has plenty of time to show what he is capable of.

Your comparison Russell pele is stupid as nobody is saying bill Russell is the goat. Brazil has been blessed and yet nobody who has seen Pele would question his dominance. I saw most of his 1970 wc and I did not see anything to say Pele is overrated as fuck but you probably know better

In today's champion league there are also some big scoring games especially during the first games. Look at muller efficiency, he is the definition of underrated. 35 European cup games 35 goals. The actual so called records are a bit bs as the number of games increased a lot.

im a big fan of what I saw from Di Stefano btw but I don't see how anybody would put him ahead of pele and Maradona. Sentimentally speaking I would put Garrincha goat player 58 and 62 were his masterpiece, dude was crazy good. I watched everything I could find of these two wc. Just looking at wc Garrincha > Pele by far.

Not sure if Phenomanul is being sarcastic or not, even if he is, pretty safe Leo will be among the best when he retires, the absolute best if he wins a World Cup

Hell, his one of those players that even if he doesn't win the World Cup, people will still regard him as the best of all time. He just needs to perform in a spectacular fashion in the World Cup. Hard to argue against all the records his breaking and all that he has won in Barcelona.

Not being sarcastic at all... to me (and this is by definition a subjective choice) Messi is the GOAT of futbol. Again, arguably in the Top 3. But no one here can convince me he should be ranked any lower than that...

His game is totally out of sync when he plays with Neymar and Cesc. He usually plays very, very good when paired with Pedro and Alexis.

There are some other issues behind the scenes as well imo but the above sentence is the main reason why he checks out of the games.

I have serious doubts you guys are watching the games. All I'm reading from educated sources is how Lazy Messi has become over the past couple years. All season long for Barca the talk was "Well Messi is just saving himself for the World Cup". But 3 weeks into the Tournament and he's the same lazy player. He use to make runs off-the-ball, pressure the opposition and not just stand there nonchalantly waiting to receive the pass so he can finish

He's quickly going down the path of lazy & fat Maradona, Brazilian Ronaldo & Ronaldinho (All South Americans).

James Rodriguez & Arjen Robben have been the two most influential players. There is no denying that. If you disregard Neuer or Ochoa because they are not offensive, then the 3rd spot is split between Messi, Ronaldo (Game tying Assist + Game winning goal), Sanchez, Neymar & Muller.

Meh. He's no Zidane or Brazilian Ronaldothat is your opinion, and thats fine, everyone perceives the game differently, for some Messi is indeed the best player they have ever seen and for some its maradona, pele, ronaldo, zidane george best etccc

His career had a very impressive arch 2 years ago as a 25 year old. But he's not winning the World Cup in Russia or Qatar. Barcelona has loaded up on offense while letting their defense to rott (takes away his scoring & winning) and he seems to have ran down his legs while chasing Muller's scoring record. Hasn't been the same player since.

He needs to leave Barcelona and lead another Club to a Title (like PSG). Otherwise he'll be remembered as that Argentinian guy playing with Spains Golden Generation.

If he crosses it, yeah i would be nervous but that ball was wayyyyy too far away and yeah, it was Messi shooting it...

I was calm!

Session is now back on.

[IronMexican]

Session is now back on.

It was a lower half La Liga side, so of course the session was back on. Wait till Suarez comes in. Messi is going to score so many tap ins and break aways on the dummies he sets up.

[DAF86]

BTW, watch Suarez play a subpar season showing once again how overrated the EPL is, tbh.

[Relevancy]

Messi is just a special player, he can literally score goals with ease. People question the competition he faces, and Its obvious that facing elche and scoring two goals is not the same like facing atletico and scoring goals, but people don't really see the big picture

How easily he scores them is what makes him unique. Can't wait when he faces real competition and scores the same, wonder what excuse people will use.

3rd best player on his own club behind Suarez & Iniesta?

Pre-2013(summer) Messi is awesome. He's been shit against good competition since, though.

Messi last season had a subpar season by his standards in general not just against elite teams, in fact except for Atletico Madrid he did better against elite teams than in lesser games, tbh.

Where you get those shitty stats? :lol Off the top of my head I can think of 4 clear chances for Argentina: Higuains, Palacios, Messis and a Messi run in the first half where the ball went along the edge of the goal line with Neuer out of the play. I'm not even counting the offside goal.

Booting the ball out of bounds doesn't count as an attempt

Booting the ball out of bounds doesn't count as an attempt

Then I fail to see how that shitty stat has any significant meaning.
