U haven't answered my question: what makes a team an "average team"?

According to u: "Compared to the other teams at that tournament, the Portuguese team were average."

There were 24 teams at Euro 2016. How did Portugal become "average" compared to d other 23teams?

U said Ronaldo made his teammates "believe they could do it" in d final match. According to u, "he was passionate".

Pls let me ask. Did Fernando Santos not make his team believe before & during d tournament? What belief did Ronaldo give his teammates that Fernando Santos didn't give d team? What form of passion did Ronaldo exhibit that d coach of d team not exhibit? What instructions did Ronaldo give his teammates that Fernando Santos didn't give his team? Was Didier Deschamp not passionate that he lost against Portugal or did Deschamp not pace along d touchline?

bro, don't be sentimental, you are not doing well at all. Your analysis was just off point, we talking leadership you are talking excuses. You don't justify failure with excuses, if you are lacking in an area, learn to get better

People like Messi hunt for Personal Glory.. It's not his fault ooo.. Leadership skills can be learnt..
No be everybody sabi do GRA GRA oooo... Yesterday was a shock

And Messi gets the blame for everything......
Just maybe for those that are saying Messi should scold his teammates at the pitch for performing badly, it definitely means that don't play football at all, you don't shout at a player, instead you encourage him....

Maybe because he is Messi.... He should attack, defend and Cover the Goal post abi, let's be logical in our reasoning sometimes naw.... I know very well we ain't beating this Bayern team, I gave up long ago, but I wasn't expecting an embarrassing scoreline.... I hope this game serves as a lesson and will definitely change the narrative of Barcelona....

I just confirmed my second withdrawal in a space of 3 days. It's Legit and paying guys.. Don't sleep on this..

I don't see d correlation with d conclusions u have made and d questions i have asked. Can u pls point out d sentiment u are referring to & pls explain how I am not doing well?

I don't remember making any analysis. I only asked questions. Can u pls show me d analysis u said I made? When did questions & analysis become d same thing?

What leadership are u talking about & what excuses did I talk about? Can u pls point out d excuses from d questions I asked?

Can u pls point out d area u say am lacking? Am not too sure what that has got to do with d discussion since u say u are talking about leadership. From much of what u said u seem to be d one lacking in simple comprehension & d ability to answer simple questions.

Here are my questions once to help refresh ur memory. Maybe u can assist d other gentleman:

"U haven't answered my question: what makes a team an "average team"?

You people should not use your mouths and keyboards to kill Messi

JOHNSONSOLAFUNMI:
Been skillful is not enough to be a captain, Messi lacks that leadership quality, he only wants to hit the round leather game and enjoy his football


Ramos
Maldini
Puyol
Cristiano
Terry
Roy Keane
Kompany
Cassillas

My all time team captain favorite, the players I listed here would have shout at semedo, scream at Vidal for being stupid, motivate lenglet for allowing these 2 cheap goals, their body languages won’t event allow Suarez to act instead of playing, but Messi couldn’t do anything, too bad, the keeper ought to be given the captain hand band

You forgot to mention Eric Cantona

Well, damn dude!

If I had known what you wanted from me was an interview, I would have prepared for it.

GEEBITE:
You want to count the one he was practically a spectator
We are not discussing MIkel Obi and his Chelsea trophies where his contributions were negligible.

He played in the season champions league and was injured during knock out stages. He was awarded a medal by UEFA.

Messi have 4 champions league. I believe that me and you don't know better than UEFA.

It's not an interview and even if it were, I don't see any reason why u are running away. I didn't need to prepare in order to ask questions. So y do u need to prepare before answering questions on points that u raised urself?

If d claims u made were actually true, then u wouldn't need to prepare before being able to answer d questions I asked. Or u thought u could just make claims without being asked to defend or verify such claims?

ojaysam25:
I think we should leave messi and Barcelona alone.....i'm beginning to feel sorry for messi....the truth is both messi and Ronaldo are great players.....where one is lacking in one area,he compensate by beating the other in another area....
One area were Ronaldo up messi is confidence and leadership qualities,he would scold,shout and motivate his players when they are not doing well...he is vocal whereas messi is the quiet type..
Having said that,both players will always be in the Goat debate....they are great players with different personalities..

You have spoken well my son

Both players are on different level and they have made history in the world football

Artiiclebeast:
That's the price of leadership and very apt criticisms even though the entire team was zero, but as the head of the pack, he deserves the sticks.

The clueless, zero charisma and uninspiring dullard of a coach deserves a slap.

The President has a lot to answer for sanctioning a bottom table coach to take the reins after the sack of another yeye one in the name of Valverde.

I thought Valverde was cold this one na olodo.

A classic example of GEJ and Buhari.

That coach body language no be am at all.. Barca is used to young managers, I don't know when they started hiring old cargos. Hope Nigeria spirit never enter there..

Auladimeji:
I'm a Barcelona, I saw it when Messi bow down when they scored but let us be real no matter what Barcelona can never beat Bayern Munich... Common!they have Muller, Lewandoski,Coutihno,Gbary,perisic and many more,My team Barcelona have nothing apart from Messi and Dejon(they really tried)...Honestly, as a Barcelona yesterday was not humiliation, the real humiliation was against Liverpool and Roma,we were cut off.... Barcelona fans should not be ashame,we can't defeat Bayern Munich and still defeat Manchester city,ko possible.. I'm still a Barcelona fan no matter what

You hear yourself, which team has coutinho?

Fastestmanalive:
Messi simply isn't captain material.

A true captain would have inspired his team to go on and win the match. I saw none of that in Messi.

That's not to say he isn't a good player though.

Who is the true captain you have seen win every match?

While I agree that Messi may not be the most effective leader, give him a break. Also consider the off pitch struggles he has had with the board and put it in context.
