I would disagree with that assessment, especially since the Copa America. He's been s in the NT, sometimes as good as the best barca version, and clearly the best NT player. But it's obvious the jury will still be out until ARG wins something.
I wasn't hating, I was recognizing, tbh...you can say that about any old soccer great. you seriously don't think the entire German team was on some heavy roids???
nobody knows really, so why cry about it?
you brought the drugs topic. Please don't tell me you believe the other teams were clean. especially the Germans which dominated back then.
I just don't understand how you dismiss the achievements of the guy that made the world forget Argentina won the 1978 at gunpoint
I'm a Diego the player fan, tbh... I don't dismiss anything. I brought up the cocaine to emphasize he actually did all that while being actually handicapped by the cocaine abuse. There's simply much better performance enhancing drugs if that's what he was trying to do. Dude was simply a party maniac back then and would hit the coke all day long.you brought the drugs topic. Please don't tell me you believe the other teams were clean. especially the Germans which dominated back then.

And yeah, I agree back then during the 80's everybody was doing it, no doubt.
cool. just saying 2 different stories.
Maradona story is more like Rocky, dude came from and fought for everything.
Messi is more like Ivan Drago. Dude was moved to an Ivory Tower at young age and hasn't come out since.
But I will give props to Messi if he can show his heart in a WC and carry his team against odds. That hasn't happened yet.
one thing I'll say, if Messi had nationalized himself Spaniard and had 2 WC in his belt, he'd be the undisputed best ever. That's how the dice roll.
The problem with the "WC don't matter", besides it being bull , is that he didn't even score the whole tourney. If that happens again then he's a choker.
Diego had a wonderful side around him in Mexico in 86'. Although he could not score in the final, a number of team mates showed what wonderful talents they were and played exceptional football to get the Argies over the line. 90' it took a German penalty to defeat the Argies. Tactically both teams were sound, there's no getting to the final if ya not.
Messi was the middle piece of a great offence but that's all really and Diego was manager and Diego is no Phil Jackson or Pop.
Argentina vs Venezuela today, for anyone that actually wants to see the reality of Messi on his NT
This what is scary about Maradona, if this dude had just a normal work ethic, Pele wouldn't be even in the discussion when speaking about being GOAT. When you think his worst years of decadency were when he was playing for Napoli and he lead a bunch of scrubs to 2 scudetti that's supernatural. At that time dude had the lifestyle of the biggest drug addict rock stars on earth.
It's sad to see what Diego has become tbh
yeah because Venezuela is the right team to see what Messi is capable of
He can be a difference maker versus any opposing NT, stop kidding yourselfyeah because Venezuela is the right team to see what Messi is capable of
*waits for him to say the game against Germany didn't count because it was a friendly
this makes no sense at all tbhHe can be a difference maker versus any opposing NT, stop kidding yourself
*waits for him to say the game against Germany didn't count because it was a friendly
"He can be a difference maker versus any opposing NT" duh, this is exactly my point... so if someone actually wants to see the reality of Messi better choose a better opponent than Venezuela
Did you forget about the Germany game and Uruguay game.. I remember Messi creating some damage there
By the way, Venezuela beat Argentina the last time they met, so I'm pretty sure Messi and Argentina have a lot to prove in this game.
Germany with a B-Team and with 10 men for quite some time there...Did you forget about the Germany game and Uruguay game.. I remember Messi creating some damage there
By the way, Venezuela beat Argentina the last time they met, so I'm pretty sure Messi and Argentina have a lot to prove in this game.
What did Ronaldo do today against Israel by the way
Venezuela is underrated, tbh... they're currently tied for 4th place with Uruguay and Chile... should be a good game.
Why did you change the subject to Ronaldo?What did Ronaldo do today against Israel by the way
And, no!
Yes but according to everyone's logic Messi needs to play versus Spain or Germany every time
Ven is not bad. But in WC, its round 1 elimination fodder
you still don't get itDid you forget about the Germany game and Uruguay game.. I remember Messi creating some damage there
By the way, Venezuela beat Argentina the last time they met, so I'm pretty sure Messi and Argentina have a lot to prove in this game.
By the way Spain plays right now, a must watch
By the way Spain plays right now, a must watch
the game was, too much possession from Spain but they only scored one goal
yeah, they look like the current Lakers, tbh
Lebron easily. Dominating a sport in the greatest country on earth>>>>dominating some pansy ass, flopping, euro sport that has been made popular by 3rd world countries.
