Another 2 beautiful goals from the GOAT to complete one of the best individual seasons of anybody in the history of football and this is all you can come here to say?

I think what he said is true and what you said is true as well. Messi is not the best captain but he is the greatest footballer. Deligt would make a better captain.

Will never get over how these spineless melts couldn't finish his chances created and couldn't defend 3 goal lead. Now I want to lose copa so at least EV could fuck off, but then Messi doesn't get ballon dor. In the end everything always turns against Messi...

He's still the most talented and probably best player ever so far, but he's disappointed too many times on the big stage to be the equivalent of someone like Michael Jordan or Tom Brady as undisputed GOAT in his sport.

He definitely had the ability to reach that status, but he just doesn't seem as driven and obsessed as most other elite athletes.

Even in the Liverpool match, I wouldn't blame him for the defeat, but I still feel like he wasn't doing everything within his power to get us over the line. If someone told him that a member of his family would die if Liverpool got through, would he still have walked around instead of pressing or moving open for a pass, would he still have just stood with his head down instead of trying to motivate the other players, would he still not yell at Valverde to make some damn changes at half time or earlier than he did?

Plenty of our players were worse than Messi, but their failings seem more down to lack of athleticism and ability. If you offered Busquets, Rakitic, and Suarez each a threesome with Gal Gadot and Margot Robbie if we won, they would still have been shit because they're shit in most matches nowadays. With Messi, it seems like he could easily do more to help us win in certain matches if he was motivated enough to.

Because he likes carrying a team just to eventually see them fail anyway? Might be true seeing how he stays coming back to play for Argentina.

If anything this should show him to question some of his "world class" teammates, especially his BFF Suarez, that are backing up Ernie because they fear losing dressing room power.
