I remember neymar crying winning the Olympic, but when it came to messi, it's not a major trophy.

Now messi have won a major trophy, it's now Mickey mouse cup and shouldn't be taken serious.

E tire me oo

One thing is certain about this People, they never learn. They are always on the look out for punchlines to frame in their minds. Surely he will another excuse if he's truly who he is.

COPA has always been Mickey Mouse. It is not organized and not regular.

Messi fans are just being emotional. I am neither anti-Messi nor pro-Messi.

Make una think am na. Seriously.
Annual competition? When others are doing it 4 yearly.

And not even regular annual o. Next thing e fit be 3 yrs or 2.384 yrs.

Jodera:
But your last discourse and this only talked about Brazil only and no other country. One thing I know is that Brazil is not the only top nation in South America.

If only Brazil does not regard it highly but others (like Argentina and Uruguay and Colombia) regard it then all the best for Brazil then.

If today France or Germany decides to only send small or inferior players to euros, that won't still diminish Euros quality if other top European countries takes it serious.

All the best for Brazil then na

1. Do you rate the U-20 World Cup over the World Cup? That’s the question.

2. If Argentina’s biggest triumph was the World Cup, why are we discussing about an inferior competition? The Nation’s Cup is to Nigeria as the World Cup is to Argentina. It’s their highest honors.

3. I’m not discussing Messi with you here. We’re talking about national tournaments and how useless the COPA has become.

Diomede has no UCL and is not as decorated as the ones I listed sir

I can’t help your lack of understanding.
Why did you stick to them? Why not Bernard Diomede and Edmilson?

afrodoc2:
Messi was asked to win the World Cup. Nobody rates G.O.A.Ts by continental titles especially COPA which is the one with the most dubious and ridiculous history.

As a Messi fan even i have to confess that you do make a fair point there.

patrickmuf:
Can you imagine? So because Argentina has won the world cup, they shouldn't strive to win the Copa or any other tournament?

It's like saying Manchester United should only be praised when we win the UCL because that's the top trophy as far as club football is concerned. Does it make sense to you?

The Copa is not useless rather you're trying hard to make it look useless just to suit your underlying agenda...If it isn't an agenda targeted at Messi, why didn't you bring up the discussion before now especially when Argentina failed in their previous tries?

patrickmuf:
Is the world Cup the strongest footballing competition in the world?

We are talking about a players individual ability and how he has been able to apply them on the field of play, and that for me should form the basis when discussing who is the best and not team trophies...

TheLequte:
How many South American teams have won the World Cup? Which South American teams have the best squads at major tournaments ? Colombia? Chile?

patrickmuf:
And now all of a sudden they realize the Copa has lost its value...

If Brazil had won, they'd have been here dragging Messi and calling him a failure away from Barcelona...

Now the narrative has changed from international trophy to world cup...

KingAlabi:
Brazil would have done the world a lot of Good and won the copa America

Lmao omo, no be the competition he play in he go win? Na international trophy, every other matter is secondary.

His level has often dropped for country compared to club and this ability to apply said ability seems to diminish in the World Cup.

His ability also diminishes from group stage to knock out stage of UCL. You can check the records.

patrickmuf:
Messi did his best vs Liverpool and Roma at the Camp Nou but their terrible defence collapsed in the away games...

Messi has dealt with Manchester United twice in the UCL final so, I don't expect that line that his abilities diminishes in knock stage to come from you...

If you fault the Glazers as the number one reason for Manchester United woes then, you should take a closer look at Barcelona's board and some of their decisions prior to Laporta returning to see how useless a Board can be so much so that you'd reserve special praise for the Glazers...From Puyol to Mascherano to Lenglet...

From Zambrotta to Alves to Sergi Roberto...

From Ronaldinho to Henry to Villa to Neymar to Dembele...

From Deco to Iniesta to Coutinho...

I was secretly wishing Messi joins City but he has opted to remain at Barcelona...

Thereddevil:
Too much haters on this Messi matter.. I remember how huge the Olympics men football had always been in the hearts of many.. Being a child then, i remember how my pop and neighbors kept screaming and watching the games joyfully. Brasil had so many stars then, during the Atlanta '96 and they were so happy beating Nigeria.. After Nigeria ended up winning the game, the tears kept rolling down their eyes cos the Olympic medal was always a great achievement on the world scene.. Ranked after the World cup had always been the Olympics and it still is, but the moment the discussion about who's greater between Messi and Ronaldo rolled in, people began talking down the Olympics cos Messi already had it. In that same 2008 that Messi won it, so many great names played in it, but the fact that Messi won it with Argentina, the Olympics has become a useless competition.
