Can Messi Ever Regain His Form Again? by mpowa(m): 4:37am On Oct 29, 2014
The Super-MessiMan that we used to know seems to be a shadow of himself, he had been dwindling in quality for a while now, as far back as two seasons, though he does always come back to prove critics wrong by answering with hatricks or some other top performances, but he seems not to be able to reenact the magic this days, at the world cup, he was so ordinary and sometime you will wonder if he was in the match, but you would think he'll dust himself from that disappointment just as we saw his counterpart critiano ronaldo did, but i watch the worst game messi played in the last El classico, he practically disappeared from the field only to show up to collect yellow card, it seems his career his winding up, what do you think, do you share my view or disagree? share your opinion.

One thing about life is that once you get to the top,you will only come down since there is no where else to go from the top.

k, d only thing o get from ur post is u don't watch football. maybe na livescores u dey read. messi has been more than fantastic in his new playmaking role but of course he won't score as much as before that's why his assists are higher. if he doesn't play that role, who will? iniesta and xavi are worse than dead on d field.

BTW, he was d best player in d world cup, except u didn't watch his games, he led almost all Argentina attack. created a lot of chances, had d most man of d match awards. plus he won golden ball to show for it, wat more can u ask for. even ronaldo too was invisible in some games, so I blame live scores not you

Exactly what most people don't understand about football. Messi is in a to form and the fact that his career is windling up is a lie. The playmaking role fits him and with Suarez and Neymar upfront, Barcelona are a team
to watch provided they shove up their defence. Ronaldo is more or less a one man player while Messi is a team player. Ask anybody.

what goes up must come down meaning you can't always be on the up and up, no matter who you are or what you are doing. Eventually you will fall back to the ground so everybody has his or her own time.That nature for you

grin cheesy your lifescore comment is funny. I'll admit i don't watch Spanish league everyweek, but i watch the classico and 1st time i don't see messi, even in the playmaker position, abi na him go 1st play that role? We saw how xavi and iniesta played in the past, they might not be profound but no one can deny their impact on the game, so playmaking doesn't make you disappear. I also watch the world cup, while I'll agree he doesn't do too badly but it was still far below the Messi's performance, no impact in the final, the best players where maserano and Lavezzi, maybe he only did well against the super eagles and Iran.

messi won't shine in every match, no player does. I think he tried during d early stages of d classico but cos his run led to d barca goal plus several other runs threatened d Madrid defence but his team mates couldn't finish. BTW, iniesta and xavi are finished

Lives scores? The Op is right. His skills are fading slowly. He don't even deserve the golden ball given to him at that world cup. He is really fading.

u are wrong....messi may not be scoring much goals, he did provide some killer passes in the classico.
I still repeat Messi has 43 goals, 22 assists in 2014 so far
while cr7 has 49 goals, 12 assists.
Whats all this ranting?

Re: Can Messi Ever Regain His Form Again? by clitlicker: 7:44pm On Oct 29, 2014
Messi is now a senior player, he is obviously no more hungry. He has lost all the sense of adventure. He is tired of dribbling, he is ok with just orchestrating the game from the midfield.
He didn't lose form, theres a new messi and i dont like him i prefer the former.

Don't really know why people hate messi for nothing.. I remember ronaldo kicking a player on the field and he was red carded nobody said anything about it. This same ronaldo even push guardiola yet Y̶̲̥̅̊o̶̲̥̅̊и̣̣̣̣̥​​ decide to hate messi for absolutely nothing, especially Y̶̲̥̅̊o̶̲̥̅̊и̣̣̣̣̥​​ epl fans ( cellshit)

Messi was not the best player at the World Cup. He was given an undeserved award.

It is wrong to give him an award based on sentiments. Players put in a lot to get to that competition. A player like Fernandinho had to battle with Sharkhtar's Management to allow him leave for Man City to get a place in the national team.

A player like Neymar almost became paralysed to get his team to the top. Toni Kroos has been one of the top 5 best players in the world consistently for almost four years. Statistically, Toni Kroos was the best player of the World Cup. Robben has been in the top 5 for almost Six years. He has never been recognised. He played his heart out in that tournament.

Then a player who has been over decorated is given an undeserved award because he is a legend.

That was too wrong of the committee that did that.

What concerns CR7 in this talk. That statement shows you are talking from a bias perspective. If CR7 had the exact performance Messi had in that tourney, then he should never be on the top three best players of the competition. Thomas Muller and Neuer should be there before Messi.
