Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi

Agreed but let's address the elephant in the room, shall we?

What elephant?

Choker. Love him but for fuck sake if you want to go far fucking run. Got throwbacks from barca where he just walked around.

He was great. Passing was sublime, dictated the tempo of the play well and actually burst away on a few occasions despite the fact he has no legs anymore.

I’ve been plenty critical of him in recent times but he was great.

Absolute nonsense.

Love how his bumboys are trying to brush that pen miss under the carpet. If this was another high profile player they'd go on and on about it.



Another bottlejob incoming.

Wait, you talk about penalties, after how close Lewandowski's miss was to costing Poland?

How the hell is he a choker if he just scored a vital goal against Mexico? He's had a number of games where he's bailed his teams. Heck, Argentina wouldn't have made the 2018 World Cup if it weren't for Messi.

Except I addressed it instead of brushing it under the carpet like Messibois. Try again.

His penalty miss was mentioned plenty but when the team wins and he has as good a game as that is becomes less relevant.

You seem to want it dwelled on more though is the real issue it seems.

Absolute nonsense.

Why? Not saying he has to put every penalty in net, but this reminds me of that chelsea game 2012 where in dire need of the goal he missed. He's far from his usual level, i hope he grows more with each game

 

[Rory]

youre overreacting, he created a few chances and had good dribbles, muuuch better than his other games

He did all those things once the pressure was off. Game already won pretty much at that point. Had a couple of very good chances that he didn?t execute. Against better sides if you don?t take those chances you’re out.

He was class tonight and moving.

No idea.

All players miss pens.

Not fooling anyone with this troll. Every user here has slated him for missing that penalty. Just wait until next game for more material

It's a pattern lmao. The good bits you're talking about came when there was zero pressure.

 

[te amo barca]

Both Messihaters and Messiboys are too harsh on him, he played well today even in the first half.

That said, I hope he doesn't get an important pen in the knockouts again. He misses them too often. He's just not a great pen taker

No they didnt.

He was playing well in first half also and pressure still on at 1-0 as equaliser can go out.

Had great game and pen miss in end doesnt matter so less focus on it.
