Gmama49:I don't hate on Mbappe. I just don't like his arrogance and disrespectful attitude maybe because I watch him every week at PSG. Despite that, I would never take anything away from his achievements. |
Sweetplum:Unlike you, I would appreciate Mbappe for whatever he achieves rather than out of spite for another player. If in 8 - 9 years, Mbappe builds up a CV comparable to Messi, De Lima or CR, who am I to deny him the obvious credit of being a possible GOAT? That in itself should show how hateful you guys have been in trying to discredit a record Seven-time Ballon Dor winner who has also won all possible international trophies in his career. Appreciate Messi for what he has achieved. It doesn't stop you from appreciating Mbappe in future if he is able to get to Messi's level. |
Numerouno94:Don't mind that Sweetplum and her Pendulum likes. They are only saying that out of hatred to spite Messi not minding the fact that they are spiting Ronaldo more by their admissions on Mbappe. That's the problem with this Social media age when you have fanatics that don't even understand football or its history, bastardizing the word GOAT anyhow. Let's even leave sentiments. How will you call someone who has never been the World's best player up till now the best footballer of all time over those that have been adjudged the best multiple times at the same age of Mbappe? You have to consistently be the best of your time at first before you then start to enter GOAT conversations. At 24, Messi had already won 3 world best player awards and had 3 UCLs and that was why he got compared to Pele and Maradona at that point. Ronaldo De Lima ruled global football at only 22 years winning the World best footballer award twice already at that age. Even Cristiano at 23 had a World best award. Mbappe may have won a World cup trophy at a very young age, just like Henry, Kaka and Dembele, but he has never been adjudged the World best even of his generation let alone of all times lol. Maybe in future if he stays consistent and racks up the Ballon D'ors and some UCL, he can then be considered for GOAThood but for now I'd say he is not fit to lace Messi's boots. I marvel at the speed with which Pendulums jumped from the back of Lewandowski in 2020/2021 to Mbappe in 2022, always trying to steal other's glory like their principal. Chai, such shameless and illogical lot. |
iykofias:See this hypocrite Oliseh. Just last week he was still calling Pendu GOAT when Morocco bundled him out. When he's now seen Messi has won the trophy he suddenly remembers Pele. The guy is just a fickle loudmouth. |

Wow this is scary. Make Messi no cause stampede o. |
Congrats to Messi. Expecting Fifa World best & 8th Ballon dor to follow suit. |
BlueRayDick:Lol. He will read it. I know his kind of person. |
raumdeuter:Current Mbappe is at the level of 02 - 04 & 05/06 Henry. That he scored in WC final does not make him better than Henry for the same reason Gotze or Greizmann were not better than Messi. |
raumdeuter:I think you are being too harsh on Henry. I'd say that their abilities level is similar but only that Mbappe is more ruthless with finishing than Henry. But Henry has more elegance and diverse skill set. Henry performed in several big games. He brought back France with a smart goal in Euro 2000 semi finals against a rampaging Portuguese side. Some of Henry's best goals were against EPL best Manutd. He scored mad bangers vs Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Mourinho's Chelsea, Liverpool, Inter Milan, Atletico Madrid, Juventus, Valencia, Roma, Borussa Dortmund just name it. Henry's performance in Euro 2000 final is one of the most dominant individual displays you'd ever see. Although he didnt score but he terrorized the Italian backline of Maldini and Nesta with so much pace and trickery that he was awarded the MOTM in that final. Even Mbappe's display, despite his hattrick vs Argentina on Sunday could not match that level of terrorism of the Italian defence by Henry. Henry also scored in the confed cup final. Yes he missed some chances in UCL final vs Barca but then he assisted the only goal they scored and was influential despite being one man down. Henry is a two time World best nominee. Dont think Mbappe has ever made the top 3 list yet. Henry has a UCL, won one WC as France highest Gscorer and also reached another final scoring Brazil along the way. Henry has won Euros as France highest Gscorer at 22yrs while Mbappe is yet to at 24 (he became 24 today). Cut Henry some slack, the only thing Mbappe has over him is the potential to surpass him due to greater longevity which is fine. |
Arizoner:Sorry I quoted you wrongly. |
AImiron:Comrade, pls kwantinue to pepper dem very well ![]() |
The Messi effect. Davido should just change his signature to Omo Messiah and see better restoration all around him. |
OJEEMAH:Lol yes o. The saddest thing for them is that there is no coming back from this due to Pendu's age. See how fellow footballers are now mocking their asun. Lothar Mathhaius just called him a failure. Even Saudi Arabia's Al Nassr owner is now asking "Who is Ronaldo?" If na Messi enter flop of the tournament, there's be at least 4 threads on FP alone for that. The retribution within the past 18 months has been epic. |
OJEEMAH:This thing called Karma ehn, hmm make I just siddon and appreciate. Imagine them now begging for peace lol |
OJEEMAH:Yeah but nah Bro, you deserve way better than that his ugly sister Maybe na absence of better servicing dey worry am ![]() |
Congrats again to Argentina. I sight Chief bodyguard De Paul ready to repel any Pendubious attack on the GOAT. |
OluomoMessi |
OJEEMAH:Thank you bro. I dont know why most Pendulums are conspiracy theorists. To me, conspiracy theorists have diminished sense because they ignore facts and would rather hold tight to their wild imaginations. How can one even argue with that? In 2016 Euros, Portugal's side of the draw to the final was very easy as they didnt play against any traditional heavyweight until the final (Hungary, Poland, Wales). Yet there wasnt any theory from Messi fans about how it was rigged for Portugal to win. Argentina on the other hand still played Netherlands & Croatia before getting to France and yet these shameless guys are still saying Fifa rigged it by giving them weak opponents. Which kind of ment be this bro. |
This is a well rounded and comprehensive take on the Qatar World Cup from Abati. Aside few statistical errors here and there, it accurately captures the key highlights of the tournament. My most significant learning from his write-up is that great feats come with sacrifices. I mean the enjoyment of the tournament's 29 days was premised on the deaths of over 4000 souls! We should all reflect on this to find a balance on what is appropriate in our pursuit of life goals. Best WC ever though. Thanks to the onfield and Instagram GOAT Messi. Meanwhile, Pendu's wife and first son are presently in emotional captivity for supporting Messi. May God deliver them ![]() |
GOAT |
Correct man. Meanwhile, BBC has just awarded Messi the 2022 Sportsman of the year award. I expect Fifa Best and more to follow to pepper those Pendulums very well. I really feel for Pendu's wife Georgina. She's the only Argentine in the World who cannot celebrate her country's success just because of one egotistical crybaby. |
Well deserved recognition. Na to be stealing other people's goals he sabi. No wonder his sister just called the Qatar WC the worst World Cup of all time. Let him go and grant another interview to Piers Morgan for the massive disrespect. Meanwhile, BBC has just awarded Messi the 2022 Sportsman of the year award. More to follow to pepper those Pendulums very well. I really feel for his wife Georgina. She's the only Argentine in the World who cannot celebrate her country's success just because of one egotistical crybaby. |
Jokerman:Joker I'm beyond all these irrelevancies now. What are you still trying to achieve. Anyway to set the facts straight, the next Copa is in 2024 and not 2025 as you stated. And if you've checked the Copa's history you'd see that the format has changed several times between 2, 3 and 4 year intervals. It was 2 years in the 1990s so what was the agenda then? Bye. |
Lol, so the Goat has finally broken the egg ![]() |
Maryjane001:Sure. But he is a devastating striker in the mould of Ronaldo De Lima. If he keeps his head down, he can build up a legendary football career as well. |
OJEEMAH:Omoh, if Messi continues this his hot streak this season, he can still score 27 goals as well, especially with Ronaldo clubless. But I agree that the most realistic time for Messi to do it is next season at least in UCL cos Ronaldo will go and statpad with Walahi Talahi FC to boost overall goal tally ![]() |
Messi fans please don't engage dimwits henceforth. They are beneath you and your precious GOATed time. |
NORSYK:Nah you are the brainless one for not being able to recognize that that was to rub salt in Ronaldo's wound and take away the remaining little things he still holds dear. If it were only goals that counted, then Josef Bican would have been the GOAT before Pendu surpassed him. It's my pleasure for Messi to strip Ronaldo of every bragging right he has, just because of his antecedents and some of his dimwitted fans who did not know their place. |
