For Messi fans, y'all should know that Messi needs to step up whenever it matters most.

Take a look at that Liverpool match, who would have believed Barcelona won't get a single goal? It's a big disappointment to a club as big as Barcelona, and having Messi in that team makes it worse.

This has been happening since 2015, in the finals against Juve, if not for Neymar and Iniesta (who won man of the match at the finals), Barca might have lost it.. However since then till now, Barcelona keeps losing at crucial stages, especially when ahead

Let me remind Messi fans some instances Messi has stepped up

In the UCL 2012 against Madrid, we know how Messi took the bull by the horn
In the UCL 2009 & 2011 finals against UTD, we saw how he also won the game. That's how you win the ballondor or Fifa best player or even considered goat

Playing 3 important finals with Argentina, and lost all... In fact that's too bad for a player who is considered goat

In the 2011 ucl encounter with Real Madrid, Madrid would have beaten Barcelona if not for the referee's huge bias and the dishonest antics of Barcelona players. Madrid were frustrated in the first leg.

Before they got to those finals, Barcelona cheated Chelsea in 2009 and cheated Madrid in 2011. Nevertheless, all Messi goals in those encounters were legit and pure class.

Minutes, 5 players came surrounding him, he still managed giving through balls.. If anyone needs stepping up his game, it's Suarez.. Imagine after 5 players get themselves around a player or probably have their concentration on a player and he manages creating chances, then the other players need step their game up... Mark this guy like every other player, and you'll regret it... Step up how you watch football

When Messi scores unbelievable goals, he's "beyond human", "magical", "GOAT"... But when he falls short like all humans do, he's mocked. That's human nature for you. To me, Messi is still the best footballer of our time. Argue with your phone if you disagree grin

Lol... So wasn't it Neymar who impacted in the finals

Remember you Barca fans say that it was Eder that won Portugal the Euros and Bale that won Madrid the UCL??

All these messi haters. When messi has don't score, it automatically means he disappears even though he is creating chances for them but teammates does not use the opportunity.

You mentioned 2015 finals? Did you even watch the match? FYI he was invoved in all the three goals especially that of suarez. Stop hating mess.He does not know you exist
