10 - Lionel Messi - v5
Yeah, "singlehanded carrying" pretty much doesn't and can't happen in the CL or WC. Competition is too high. But there is a clear distinction in the amount of support they had. Portugal are a genuinely high level team even aside from Ronaldo. Balanced, great gameplan, etc. -

His team stepped up big time, totally pinned Uruguay back and were relentless in their pressure. Bernardo Silva was absolute class. Ronaldo was a disaster while his team actually played great. That is something you will NEVER see from Messi, not even once.- DonAndres

10 - Lionel Messi - v5
Absolute lolz at the idea that Messi ever got more support from Argentina than Ronaldo does for Portugal. 70% possession, 20 shots, completely controlled the game no thanks to him. People legit crowned him the greatest ever, leapfrogging like 3-4 players who still are easily ahead of him... -

Portugal absolutely dominating. 70% possession and 17 shots, Uruguay just holding on by a thread due to Cavani's heroics -

Portugal are pinning them in their half Edit: lmao my stream is behind -
10 - Lionel Messi - v5
He should retire from the NT. No point in staying, Brazil will demolish this team in the Copa next summer regardless. I'm glad I'll never have to support that shitstain Argentina team again -

Problem is the EV really may have kept insisting on starting Iniesta even despite being 34 and visibly declining. With the way things are now, that other CM spot is there for the taking (if we play the right system). The other mids in the squad are anything but starting caliber. Arthur will...- DonAndres

World Cup 2018
Don't think he'll ever be the standout player on a championship team (CL or WC). Outshined by Messi at Barca, outshined by Coutinho for the NT, and I doubt he can do much with PSG in the next year or two. I expect Mbappe will become the main man there sooner rather than later, could end up... -

Neymar has regressed as a player. Low IQ plays, very turnover prone. He's so talented but has the footballing intelligence of Di Maria. -
Thiago Translantara
The fact that you think all of this has to do with how "light" or "tall" or "muscular" they are says it all really. That you seem to think I like these players BECAUSE they are "light" and small. You clearly aren't comprehending the roles and actions of players on the pitch, rather just going... -
10 - Lionel Messi - v5
Mascherano was practically playing for Nigeria tonight. Disastrous on the ball and flying loose with dumb tackles and fouls on the other end, constantly getting caught out of position as well. Don't think a guy with 0 composure deserves to be captain. Don't give a flying fuck about his "heart"... -
Thiago Translantara
Hahaha RM were floundering about for years with the likes of Khedira, Alonso, Lass, etc. manning their midfield with "muscles" and aggression. They add Kroos, Modric, and Isco and win 4 CL's. But yeah, muscles won them the CL eh? Argentina weren't fairing too well with "thugs" like Perez and... -
10 - Lionel Messi - v5
Modric was the one who said after CRO-ARG that "Messi can't do it all alone" and then "we'll beat Iceland for him". Croatia's coach just rotated the team (rightfully) to rest their players for the KO's and potentially kick out another contender. -

Everyone's saying coke but he just looks blackout drunk to me :shrug: -
10 - Lionel Messi - v5
Nah cmon man that's Kroos's goal no question for me. -
World Cup 2018
For the level of talent they have they've been immense against the better teams. All down to organization and grit, you can't seriously expect much more from them. -
World Cup 2018
Honestly this is what I expect :lol: that one team loses it for themselves rather than the other team actually putting in a great performance. -
World Cup 2018
Mascherano is so overrated, such a low IQ garbage player. The worst Argentina player by far, given the negative impact he has on the team on both ends. -

Drogba is a good pundit. Zabaleta too. Wish more former players engaged like this, I like hearing their opinions.
