AjanleKoko: But seriously now. It seems like Messi is kinda done. He just takes strolls all the time now.You are right bruv... Now it seems confirmed that that explosion like you stated is no longer there. What keeps him going now is the genius in him. I thought it was a case of him looking forward to the World Cup. I could remember vividly I did complain about this at different times during last season, but the thought at such times were "he was saving himself for the World Cup". Well, I think it's glaring now that he wasn't saving himself then, but was just less explosive than normal. In such regards, the best thing or role he will play for us now is an AM role. Or any other suitable roles as long as it's not the false 9 role. Maybe the guy who said Messi is no longer passionate about football/playing is partially right. Who knows...? |

coded01: Messi: Argentina strikers missed chancesAs much as I cherish and adore Messi, I no gree for that him excuse ooooo. Netherland played Brazil having the same 1-day rest. And what happened? Was the 24 hours difference the reason they failed to convert their chances? Not at all! They tried, and the World recognises that, but I no wan hear that excuse at all. |

Messi should be one of those who missed chances as well. He had a glorious chance in the 46 min and missed too 1 Like |

So when we say Messi did not deserve the Golden Ball this automatically means we hate Messi. Loool at the logic of these unapologetic ret@rds |

tobiboss: i used to complain about that too, but after watching the final i understood why, he doesn't have the heart for it(literally) I fear it may be a physical problem. Recall he had a very tight regimen under Pep. Now he's hosting Argentinian barbecues, and drinking cokes at will. His body may not just be able to fuel the kind of explosion we saw between 2009 and 2012, frankly speaking. |

I have this thought, that Guardiola is partly responsible for the recent victories achieved by both German and Spanish National teams. Spain dominated world football with Barcelona's players, when Guardiola was the coach. Now, Germany is beginning to dominate world football by playing same possession-based football, using Bayern Munich's players, with Guardiola as coach. Meanwhile, my tears have refused to dry-up since last night. I cried like a little baby, because of my Leo Messi. He was so close to achieving that, which his heart has always yearned for. I don't know what happened along the way? Higuain and Sabella failed him when he needed them the most. I pray this doesn't kill his love for the beautiful game! 2 Likes |

Food for thought: Would Germany have won the WC without Muller? Possibility is of the lowest rank, afterall they lost Marco Reus early on. Would Argentina have played at the finals? The answer is a resounding probable NO! Four man of the match awards, a record highest ever at the WC. NINE dribbling occasions in a single match, smashhing Maradonna's record of seven in 1986. Created the highest goal scoring chances the entire tournament... and many more personal records. Big question many Penaldo fans fail to point out is how or not he deserves the current WPOTY he won. The entire calendar year, he played second fiddle to Messi in every area but enjoyed 2 phenomenal months on the tail of Messi's injuries, guiding his country through the play offs and everyone thought he deserved it, failing to acknowledge that Messi had qualified his country for the tournament two months prior. And finally, those holding Messi to impossible standards just missing out on enjoying a talent they'll likely not experience again. Their loss entirely.

Maybe they should convert Messi into an attacking midfielder. But I don't know if he's gonna be cool with that, though. |
Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by dmcdad: 7:13pm On Jul 14, 2014 |
coded01:Does that mean all Maradona has been saying are correct because he played football? C'mon! If because playing football makes them correct all the time, then why do they need a coach especially since many/some of them never played football themselves. It's okay if you wanna disagree with what I stated, but please don't say it's because I don't play football. Playing gives experience without an iota of doubt, but being a player doesn't mean everything you say at every point in time as regards football are correct. We know how players can be on the defensive whenever things don't go their way, so I guess it's no news that he gave such an excuse. If the chances they squandered were converted, would he have been out to say this? CS is all that is needed to decipher it. |

A40:and switzerland! without messi, argentina would have gotten 1 point from bosnia. without messi argentina would have gotten 1 point from iran. (why? in both games he won them with the last kick of the ball). against nigeria, i cant tell. meaning they just might have faced france instead of switzerland and you know what the means, a probable second round exit. against switzerland, without messi they were destined to have a shootout but mascherano or lavezzi or any other argentina could never have made that run to set up angel. against belgium, he danced around 3 midfielders to draw space and set up angel again. against holland he beat kyut and vlar on the right side to set up maxi who had an easier job than gotze had last night but he blew it. if maxi had scored from that assist, messi would have been man of the match definitely! nowadays people like to talk mascherano; against iran nobody mentioned mascherano, against bosnia nobody, against nigeria nobody, against switzerland nobody, against belgium nobody, and then against holland for the first 80 mins nobody. with the match almost ending masch made a tackle to deny robben and all of a sudden mascherano became argentina's best player. some even go to the extent of saying masch was argentina's best player by a wide margin; for real? seriously people are taking for granted how much a feat it is to play in a world cup final, win or lose simply because messi is involved. messi and argentina must be celebrated. messi almost single handedly dragged his country to a world cup final, 7 mins more the story could have been very different. surely messi will no longer be regarded as a national team flop. like i said b4 only thomas muller deserved the golden ball ahead of messi. nobody else. however you do it, sweet or ugly, to make it to a world cup final you must be celebrated and honoured. ive never seen a team play in a world cup final and still be maligned. i have never seen a player captain a team to a world cup final as their captain and best player and still be criticised. messi has set the bar too high, that's the albatross around his neck. |

The answer is a resounding probable NO!Truth is,By his extraordinary performances over the years,Messi has unknowingly put himself at such a level that anything below that level,all hell will break loose for his haters..He just happened to be a Victim of his own Greatness.. He lost the last Balon d'or cuz people believe he has won it too much.....Such is his lot!! |

How can someone here compare Muller's impact to Marco Reus?? That's some damn funny logic, Muller has 10 World Cup goals, he had 5 in 2010 without starting most games and racked up assists and you want to compare him to Reus?? Reus first International Tourney was 2012 Euros and he was only a bit part player, that comparison holds no water Abeg |

Messi blaming others for the loss, They all had one chance each, he should have converted his nah, he had more of the ball compared to them so no excuse |

Dhelake: Messi blaming others for the loss, They all had one chance each, he should have converted his nah, he had more of the ball compared to them so no excusewhy are you so vulnerable to articles without reading between the lines? he said we, he blamed himself as well. besides that his own was a 50/50 chance. it's the kind of chance you're running towards goal with defenders bearing down on you, and it's either you score or you miss. besides every striker has to miss some and score some, you cant score all. for higuain it was different. a kroos back pass fell nicely for him 12 yards out; he didnt have to run, he didnt have to panic. he misses; higuain misses 8 out of 10 chances. for palacio, he is crap; same chance fell to him against holland, he nodded to the keeper. same against germany, he didnt have to run,he didnt have to rush, yet he blew it. higuain and palacio owe the argentine people an apology. |
