Who are "we"? I hope that the majority of this Forum accepts science and common sense. "Proud Warriors" like Djokovic are causing new outbreaks and are helping the virus to mutate and to continue threatening our way of life. A person who once stated that "prayer and belief can purify toxic...

What could be his medical reason for rejecting vaccination? He has a problem with Gluten but I am not aware of any gluten related issue with current vaccines. The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines have minimal side effects. If he gets a vaccination today, he will be fully fit when the tournament...

I think Messi has forgiven all Di Maria sins of the past, after the Copa final. They will get along forever after that epic moment.

Whoscored rated his performance 8.8 despite no goals / assists. He hit the woodwork and narrowly missed another good shot. Di Maria badly missed a sitter prepared by Messi. He looked sharp.

Time for Messi to start trying a little harder, not just "mailing it in". He tries much harder in ARG NT, so can still do it if he wants to. I have a feeling he is afraid of injury ahead of CL knockout games, and in particular aheadv of WC. However, as a professional he should at least perform...

Puig did ok - he kept the ball a few times when others would have lost it.

King Leo, I will visit your country next week. I was considering a pilgrimage to Rosario to trace the beginnings of Messi's and Di Maria's careers, but will rather visit the beautiful mountains of Patagonia. I hope it won't be too rainy and cold. How is the mood in Argentina - did the Copa win...

Did you watch the Copa America final? Neymar played really well, would have been MOM if Brazil had won.

Messi played well today, he was not "lazy". His assist for Di Maria's goal was excellent: they tried to muscle him off the ball but he kept it and passed it quickly to Di Maria. He missed a great chance to score but was decisive in securing PSG's win.

PSG vs Liverpool would be an interesting confrontation during CL knockout stage. At least Navas/Donnarumma and Ramos would not be intimidated by Anfield home crowd.

with Sergio Ramos back to fitness, PSG will be a much stronger team

still - entertaining match with good outcome - new fighting spirit, good to see.

definitely improved (mentally, in particular) since Xavi arrived

Messi would be higher up if he would still play for Bar?a

What is frequently overlooked is the fact that Messi is going to Argentina whenever there is an international break. A very long trip with a 6 hour time change, and a seasonal change as well - it's winter in Argentina when there is summer in Europe (and vice versa). When he comes back he has to...
