Been watching Messi last 7 years and for t he last 12 months something isn't right. He's still got the pace to go past people, still has moments of sublime skill and still can score some amazing goals. He looks human now Now when he plays I don't expect him to score. He often goes 3 or 4 games without a goal He never smiles, looks disinterested and fades out of games. Has he got some illness we don't know about? what with being sick 5 times on the pitch during games. I don't know the answer but he is just a 6.5 out of 10 player most games now, just doing the minimum to get by. To be fair he is in a poor argentina team, but it was the same when in the Barcelona team. Is he ill ? depressed? or just bored
Theres nothing 'wrong' with him.
He has just set himself such incredibly high standards that whenever he doesn't show the same game in game out all sorts of things about him start to get questioned.
Winning MOTM means fuck all I've seen many players win it because who they are not how they've played
He is a brilliant footballer but certain players win awards for their name alone like his undeserved player of the tournament award which was a jokeIn those games he scored or created in each. He's an absolutely brilliant footballer.

He won player of the tournament![]()
He won the Adidas sponsored player of the tournament award.
I dont really care who sponsored it.
Even though I wouldnt say he did, Messi dragged Argentina a lot more than Ronaldo did Portugal.Messi & Ronaldo are undoubtedly world class, but their respective national sides aren't as good as their club teams.
Personally, in that situation id rather have Ronaldo as I think he can carry a team more but thats just my opinion
Hasn't his dad come out and said that Messi feels like his legs weigh a ton each and he's basically just completely shattered?
My point being he's one of the highest paid sports stars Adidas have on their books. Unsurprising they gave it to one of their own.
Haven't heard that but wouldn't be surprised.
'Leo (Messi) said it looked like his legs weighed 100 kilos. He was very tired,' Jorge Messi told Brazilian newspaper Folha de S.Paulo when asked about his son's anonymous performance over 120 minutes against the Dutch.
One of the most ridiculous things that I've read on the SMB.I'm just glad that the wankathon is now over, at least for the time being, as he's been exposed as a very decent player but not quite the messiah. The way they went on about him on the telly over here was embarrassing, had the cameras on him almost continuously. A play breaks down that he wasn't even involved in and there's a zoom to him to show his reaction. Seemed like every possible chance outside of the game in motion they were zooming in on him, and even worse at the end (when he seemed kinda detached, not jumping for joy of course but seemingly not even that boshed about losing). I just kept wondering why are they keep focusing on that loser, why aren't they showing the Krauts celebrating?
This year's Batistuta - built up to a ridiculous height by the media, exposed as a mortal.
This world cup has proved to me that he is not the best ever.

That takes some doing.
