Kilishihunter:
Creation or no creation, lewa has been highly atrocious before yesterday, Leave story

What are you saying, señor? What's a striker gonna do if he doesn't get chances? Imagine Haaland with no service. He'd look even more atrocious. Strikers are defined by goals. If you don't feed 'em enough, they'd be like a ghost on the pitch.

He gave a 9.1 rating performance against Betis, what else do you want?

Lewa doesn't get enough respect from Barça fans.

Ikennablue:
how about Gavi? Nobody recovers the ball and kill opponents attack like him

Lmao. They think we can win it all with technicalities.

When I was saying that we don't create enough chances for Lewa, it was as if I was yapping.

I have always said it. Dembele is lucky to be playing in a first-division league. Man is horrendous.

Jeffiwizzy:
How did you get it

I don't know. It appeared mysteriously on the screen after charging my phone

chuksvoice:
Yes, it needs to be replaced

Too bad. Do you have an idea how much it will cost?

Too easy

Go play with sand outside. You're not even intelligent enough to be on this thread. You reek of gross stupidity.

OJEEMAH:
if Iniesta, Xavi, Neymar, Suarez, Pedro, Busquet all played as a team, what stopped Coutinho, Dembele & Greizmann from doing same?

No real tactics how? This tactics won them 3 UCL(2009, 2011 & 2015) and as many La liga title as possible. Clueless?

And what do you mean, they don’t know what to do in opposition final third when Neymar shared UCL Top Scorer playing with Messi in 2015.

Suarez won European Golden Boot playing with Messi in 2015. You and I do not know better than Xavi & Laporta that wanted him back.

From what I read, Xavi wanted him to be his chief playmaker. He was going to operate full time as a midfielder. football did not start in Pedri’s era.

Pedro, Busquet, Ansu Fati succeeded.

How old was Pedri when Messi left?

Someone that just graduated from La masia shortly before Messi’s exit.

Did Messi stop Barcelona academy from producing players?

Bartomeu prefer to buy instead of giving youngsters opportunity to develop. Messi had nothing to do with this.

Pedro played his best football with Messi
Busquet played his best football with Messi
Ansu Fati played his best with Messi

If the club abandon La masia graduates. The then president should be blamed cos if wanted to develop and promote them, he wouldn’t have spent crazy amounts on Coutinho, Dembele, Griezmann, Pjanic and others

The coach would also promote them to join the first team training sessions.

Pedri played well under Koeman and Messi was there too. same Suarez that played a pivotal role when ATM won the la liga or which Suarez are you taking about?

Even till date, Busquet and Alba are still balling.

Mention the youngster that would have benched Busquet or Alba at the time?

You really don’t have anything to say than to criticize Messi. Even a harmless move to MLS is still a problem for you. Omo😮
Did he sign his family member or friends? So why was he trying to bring him back?

Think about it.
False The famous line of Ronaldo fans

But he just won the World Cup with youngsters like Enzo and Alvarez mention 3 youngsters that played with Messi and didn’t grow. Messi is bad yet many players at club and national team level are ready to give anything to make sure he wins

LMAO. This is why Barcelona is in the dump. What is this mentality? I'm fuming after reading the garbage you wrote up there.

I'm at work right now. When I'm done with work, I'll type a lengthier epistle of more than 3,000 words to debunk that non-sense posted up there

Ballzproblem2:
£900m will go on top kids who are yet to gain experience

Have you seen Chelsea's squad rating on EAFC24?

Ballzproblem2:
At the start of July Todd Boehly had an estimated net worth of £5.18billion according to Bloomberg Billionaires Index. That was a huge rise from £4.2billion the year before and continues a large and consistent growth for Boehly.

- via @Football_LDN

you know what this means 😎

In January, we spend another £1bn.

OJEEMAH:
my take on this is simple

Messi is not solely responsible for their financial woes.

Did you consider the recklessness of the former president Bartomeu?

That man wasted about 450-500m to sign Coutinho, Griezmann and Dembele. If you add the huge salaries and allowances those guys were paid, that figure could go as high as 800m

How about selling Arthur for around 60m+ only to waste the money on Pjanic?

President Bartomeu made poor financial decisions.

After Messi’s exit, Barcelona have not been able to cut down their wage bill to meet la liga benchmark.

Laporta released Greizmann, Coutinho and many others but their wages was still more than a 100% that’s why they couldn’t register their new signings at the time cos in la liga you can’t spend more than 70% on salaries and wages.

They tried selling Coutinho but no one was willing to buy cos the transfer fee was too high and his salary was another stumbling block.

Have you also forgotten how Bartomeu abandoned La masia?

Bro, you can’t pin this on Messi alone.

Please read this article by Marc’s
https://amp.marca.com/en/football/barcelona/2021/03/01/603d1f8622601da3538b4626.html

I never said he was solely responsible, did I?

Also, Coutinho, Dembele and Greizmann could have been successful if we played like a real team.

We had no real tactics than to pass to Messi. Too much power was given to Messi and it costed us.

Just go back in time and watch Sevilla V Barcelona in 2019, where Messi scored a hat trick, I presume. It was horrendous. Arsenal of today would have smacked us into shreds.

We were literally playing around Messi. The other players were clueless. In the opposition's final third, they wouldn't know if to cross or shoot. They'll look around and once they found Messi, they pass.

Honestly, Barcelona gave Messi fame and power at the cost of the club's financial and intercontinental success.

Do you think Messi coming to this current Barcelona would help?

During Messi's tenure in Barcelona. Tell me, how many youngsters succeeded? When Pedri back then in 2021 looked generic. We couldn't concentrate on him because all eyes were on Messi.

Without Messi, we have Gavi, Pedri, Balde, Yamine, Araujo and co.

Before Messi left, we were hanging around with his old friends. We didn't want them to leave. Messi can be destructive, man.

With a lineup of deteriorated players like Pique, Alba, Busquet, Suarez, and Sergi, even Mbappe smashed a hattrick.

Messi never wanted change for Barcelona. Failure after failure, it took a massive uproar from the fans to kick out Suarez from the club. But we still had Alba, Busquet and Pique and Messi never wanted them to leave, whilst the youngsters were rotting.

Look at it. Even in MLS, he brought his old friends. OMG.

Messi turned Barcelona into a family and friends house. When we damn know that football is a cold business.

DON'T YOU THINK THAT WAS WHY LAPORTA SECRETLY KICKED MESSI OUT OF THE CLUB!?

Think about it.

Laporta knew. Xavi Knew. But Messi was too big to be orchestrated. The fans will eat anyone who publicly criticise Messi, if even it's the true.

The fans will easily push Laporta out of the club just for Messi to play even if it means getting destroyed in the UCL every year.

It shows that many fans believe Messi is bigger than Barcelona, which is wrong.

Honestly, at club level, Messi can't perform exceedingly well without Barcelona. He can't play in somewhere built around hungry youngsters that want to play as a team.

Messi wants domination. That's why youngster hardly grow under Messi.

He wants the ball at his feet every 2secs. I hate that. A single player being the center of attention comes with great danger.

Chelsea should hire me as their new manager. I swear, I got some tactics up my sleeves.

OJEEMAH:
Don’t be deceived. He’s not a Barca fan.

Well, I am. What makes you think I'm not?

Trevor012:
The Midget thief was collecting 555million in 4 years 😂



https://www.cbssports.com/soccer/news/lionel-messi-barcelona-contract-details-674-million-earnings-leaked-by-spanish-paper-in-bombshell-report/

600M in 4 years. That's extortion and corruption. Real Madrid would be laughing their ass off. Where's Barcelona now? In debt. Where's Messi? In MLS, gobbling up enormous wages.

I don't respect Messi.

Geld:
Funny thing they can't even hide it Long enough

Honestly, most of you are brain-dead. Intelligence isn't your stronghold.

I don't like Messi. Barcelona fan ≠ Messi fan.

Neimarjr:
Sorry, I've been a barca fan before Messi came on board.
Now run along, spy.

Why are you hurt? You can't string more than two words together to counter what I said. Perhaps, if you're intelligent enough, you should be able to debunk any false statements in my write-up.

Of course, you can't find any false information or accusations. It's the painful truth. The truth that hurts the soul of Messi fans.

I have proofs and screenshots. I did my findings and homework well.

You dummies can't stand it. You know I'm right. You folks are miscreants and buttlickers. You folks are a disgrace to the club's crest and emblem.

Barcelona fan? Don't let me laugh. In this country, there are probably less than 10 true Barcelona fans.

Others, which I believe are greater than ten million, are tag-alongs. They don't even know the club's history. They are solely Messi fans.

The club is burning, but you can't snitch out the arsonist because he's your darling.

Wait. Am I supposed to keep quiet and believe Messi is bigger than Barcelona?

He ruined the club, and I'm supposed to say nothing because he has 7 golden balls and 4 golden boots. He won trophies, yes. But was he playing for free?

Honestly, I'm not even Barcelona fanatic enough. The true Barça fans are the residents and indigenes of Catalonia. The Catalans loathe the Spanish government. That's why Barcelona are bitter rivals of Real Madrid

Of course, you fools don't know that. You're not supposed to.

If you're not a Catalan, you're not a real Barcelona fan. When the club stop being a big club and stoops low to that of Getafe or Valencia, you'd jump on the next dick (club).

Only Catalans are Ultras till death. No matter the situation of the club, they'll be there.

Sooner or later, some of you will reflect and remember my words. Messi played a massive part in Barcelona's catastrophe.

The little man with innocent eyes isn't innocent. Messi fans are the worst, honestly. That man could sell rock to y'all and call it bread

Especially on Twitter, they worship this man. It's most of them are being blindfolded.

The state of Barcelona right now is pitiful. From a treble winning side to a club that can't play her employee's wages. Laporta would even ask some players to release the wages left on their contract to assist the club

You're a damn hypocrite and a no good fanatic, if you believe your darling Messi didn't played a major part in the club's financial crisis.

Honestly, most of you are a shame to the club. You're only of Messi and Messi only. You don't support Barça. You're are not one of us.

In 2019, most Barcelona fans jubilated Messi's Ballon d'or like it was treble winning season. The same season we were embarrassed.

Most Barça fans don't care about the club. So far, Messi wins a Ballon d'or or wins an award over Ronaldo, that's a successful season for them.

Other legends didn't ruin the club and jumped on the next train. I know legends when I see them, and for me, Messi isn't one.

Jokerman:
Pele, Maradona are better than Messi... We all know that

All? No at all. More than half of Messi's fans on this thread believe Messi is greater than the great Pele.

And some of you will wonder why I insult their intelligence.

Smh.

Neimarjr:
This one is just dy yarn rubbish.

When you're done, Find your way out of here!!

I know you Messi fans on this thread are hurting right now. That's how the truth feels after uncovering buried lies.

Jokerman:
I'm not a Pessi fan, but this is wrong. Messi carried Barcelona many times. He played with his heart there.

Don't be like the dumb Man utd fans who talk down on CR7, who is still our biggest player ever

If there was a football hierarchy, you'd be at the bottom feeding on scraps.

Begone, you insignificant. And tag me no more.

hensben:
Smally, I’m talking of final games or you didn’t see what I post well.

Nah, you've lost. And I don't talk to losers.

hensben:
World Cup win>>>> any win Mbappe had against Messi.

WC won with his heart in his mouth. LMAO. Every Messi defeat to Mbappe was done comfortably.

Didn't a 19-year-old Mbappe whack Messi and his crew in the 2018 WC, where he scored a brace and won a penalty for France? That man could have easily scored a hat trick in that man.

Hold on. Didn't a 22-year-old Mbappe come to Messi's backyard (Camp Nou) and drop a hat trick performance on his head?

Okay, boy.

hensben:
It’s international football month and I’m here to remind you all who the G.O.A.T is.

Mbappe has beaten Messi more times than you think

It's 2023, for damn sake, and people still believe in this crap.

Still available

ourunivibes:
Are you ready? 300k tomorrow I come down to Ondo we close deal 🤝

I'm down. Why haven't you messaged or called me?

When people compare Messi to Pele, I feel like shedding tears.

Nigerians and Indians have the worst football knowledge on the internet. The are like a bunch of NPCs that swallow everything social media feeds them.

Most people can't even think for themselves. They have a smartphone, and they can't use it properly. They don't even know what tactics we use.

I can easily break down Xavi's tactics from A - Z. I'm not your average football fan. I watch the game better than most of you. I'm not a dummy that sees 4-3-3 and thinks it's 4-3-3.

pkasso:
Yes. Note: i said better FINISHER, not GOALSCORER. Harry Kane is also a better all-round player. He MAY not score as many goals as Lewy did, as he is more than a poacher but i trust him to leave his mark. Impact is what matters. With all of Lewy's goals, we only made 1 CL final in 8 seasons. We made 3 in the 5 years before him.

Oh, please. In what world is Kane a better finisher than Lewandowski?

Because Lewa is old and plays for Barcelona, they don't have enough chances. It is the same Kane that hardly has 20 UCL career goals.

Recency bias will make people disrespect legends because they're in a poor form.

If you say Kane is a more talented striker, I'd agree. Kane is a better all-round player that can drop deep and become a playmaker.

Kane is more elegant than Lewa. Lewa is more clinical, surgical, and legendary.

Yeah. £1M per year. That was what Messi was earning a week in PSG. That money grabber ruined the club and jumped on the next ride.

Most of you here are Messi fans, not Barcelona fans. In your mind, you believe he is bigger than the club. He's faultless and as innocent as an infant.

Bunch of deluded weirdos. In less than 7 years, Messi gobbled up more than 500 Million in salary and bonuses.

He kept his out-of-form and washed friends, Suarez, Alba, and Busquets. His influence pressured the club to give them chunky salaries and further sink the club.

FOOLS! They can't see. You folks have been charmed and probably under a love spell for Messi and can't see that behind those innocent smiles and cries is a villainous howl and satire.

Me, I'm more of a Barcelona fan than you folks. I understand the game more than most of you. I've been a Barcelona fan for as long as I can remember. My phone's wallpaper is of Barcelona's youngsters (Gavi, Pedri and Araujo)

You folks are disgusting, irrational, and built like a porcelain dull.

The truth is waved and rubbed on your face, but you still can't see. Try to release yourself from your delusions and see things from a neutral point of view.

I used to be a hardcore Messi fan, like y'all. I supported that little man till he won the WC. I screamed out of my voice through his WC journey last year.

I saw one dummy defending Messi, saying "that we should give him everything for what he has done.'

What a dumbass. You have a brain you're supposed to use it.

BARCELONA is bigger than MESSI. Barcelona employed him and paid him a fair salary. No player is good enough to control or extort the club.

From 2012 - 18, Ronaldo was a far more crucial player than Messi. He was one of the main reasons they won five UCLs, and he didn't get worship. He demanded a better salary than the club's wage structure, and he was kicked out.

Tell me, didn't Madrid win another UCL?

Pathetic set of fans.

Better stick to your average Chelsea and Man U. Perhaps, leave the damn club and support Messi FC.

That fool kept renewing his contract every two years and ruining the club. These fools are telling me he deserves everything for doing his DAMN JOB.

He didn't even do it properly. He was a disappointment on the biggest of stages.

He wrecked the club's financial structure. He didn't allow other players like Greizmann, Coutinho, and Dembele to excel. I mean, how they will excel when we don't play as a damn team when all we do is recycle passes to Messi every damn 2 secs.

We were a walking loophole in the UCL. Big teams will look at their tactical graphic board and see no tactical approach from us other than to pass to Messi.

How to stop Barcelona?

Don't allow Messi to have the ball. Simple. We're done.

We could have won 7 UCLs now if our boards were as brutal as Real Madrid. That's why we're behind them constantly.

They'll tell you Real Madrid doesn't respect their legends. I used to believe that, and damn, I was wrong.

FOOTBALL IS BUSINESS. The goal is to keep winning and continue to be a football powerhouse

But we took the "Mes Un Que Club" too far and kept pampering our legends after dropping stinkers.

Busquets, Messi, Alba, Suarez, Pique, and so on. They used to be heroes, but left as a villain.

The club is not a family house. The club is running a business. We were too soft. We ruined the club.

Now, we're going to suffer for God knows how long.

That's why Xavi didn't want Messi. Pep left the club because he had seen it. The media will, of course, tell you that Xavi wants Messi, and they'd be glad to have him.

Of course, you dummies, you don't expect Pep and Xavi to disrespect a club legend publicly

Bleep, Messi.

Without that damn dwarf, we would still be giants. Prime Barcelona didn't need Messi to win trophies. He was only an icing on the cake.

Xavi, Iniesta, Busquet, Eto, Henry, Yaya and co. With Pep as the manager, we would still have our trophies.

Without Messi, they will be Barcelona; without Barcelona, Messi will be in Argentina, struggling with his deficiencies.

That man couldn't replicate 10% of what he did at Barcelona at Psg because he was not in his comfort zone where they lick his butt, worship, and perceive him as a deity.

In PSG, it was cold. He didn't have enough of the ball as he used to in Barcelona and Argentina. I mean, even Dani Alves said if Messi doesn't have the ball every 2 seconds, he disconnects from the game.

He flopped heavily in PSG. PSG was trying to play as a team and not spam one man with passes and make them predictable.

Ultimately, the little man flopped "in the supposed easiest league in the top five leagues."

Embarrassing. He's like a fish that can't survive on land. At the same time, most world-class players are amphibians.

He couldn't deliver. He became a deadweight to PSG. They were eliminated in the UCL R/16 back to back. Embarrassing.

He was trying to form another degressive partnership with a useless player like Neymar.

Do you think the Ultras in PSG are fools?

They saw what he did to Barcelona and didn't want the same thing to happen to them.

Smh.

I'm out.
