That bloody hat-trick has got him the ballon d'or (along with Ramos again). -

I did say here that their unending luck may have finally ran out after the Iran equaliser as that gave them a much tougher path to the final. Without that it could have been Russia, Croatia and England instead of Uruguay, France and Brazil. Had they won the group it could have been Euros all... -

He's got 2020 Euros and will want to stay on till 2022 in Qatar. Possibly beyond that as long as he's fit enough. Personal accolades for him: all time International goal record which he should beat. Only player to score in 5 World Cups. Realistically he's just lost his last chance to win it... -

He'll play in Qatar. Like Argentina though I don't think Portugal have a great deal of talent coming through and have plenty of older players so aren't likely contenders. -

World Cup 2018
He rolls back the ages occasionally (Juve 1st leg, Atleti 1st leg last season, Spain the other week) but for every one of them there's 10 dross games from him. Messi's magical performances are more fleeting too now (Ecuador, Bernabeu hat-trick, Chelsea 2nd leg) but he still produces great... -

Teams who actually bother to defend and try and stop him (Iran and Uruguay) can stop him easily enough. -

One of them has to play up front. What they can't do is occupy the same space. -

His general play is okay (Aguero doesn't really do anything, although did score v iceland). In front of goal though he shits the bed every time and you can't have that from your striker. It's more burden on Messi. Your striker needs to score. -

Higuain performs okay but if he's the 9 he has to take chances and he has cost Argentina so many times by not doing that and hasn't scored for them for 2 years. Lo Celso should come in with maybe Pavon and Dybala. Messi false 9 or Aguero. -

At least Argentina have momentum now and are emotionally charged, whereas France have limped through their three games and played crap. They have to pick the right team though. Masch has to go unfortunately. Kante and co will run through him. -

Still relying on Higuain and Di Maria is ridiculous, they both choke every time. I'd just put Messi false 9 at this point with the likes of Banega and Dybala to try and feed him. Loved Messi's celebration for the winner. It was like finally someone else has taken responsibility. -

About time someone else finally stepped up the way Real and Portugal players do for the prick. -

Probably but at least if Argentina get through it means Denmark for them. Ronaldo would tear apart that Argie defence though. He punishes shit defending it's his whole game. -

That's just it though. If he's on Messi's team he misses if he's on Ronaldos team he scores. -

Yeah at least beat them three you can say they deserve it. What a chance for them to be out though then. -

It's so easy to run at Barca/Spain now and even get the ball off them to do it. A few years back you couldn't get the ball and if you did they'd get it straight back.Spain would not concede a goal all tournament.
