For your friend sha, I nor blame am. Dem just disvirgin am as Madrid fan.

E still dey shak am.

But you dey fall my hand. OG like you.

You know once a while i will throw jabs.

But seriously you guys should not allow Messi leave. IF and BIG one if HE DECIDES AND INSIST to leave it should not be free.

Business before leisure

haymekus:
This man is a bastard if Messi ends up staying, it’s gonna be a disaster to barce, and the team as a whole


Allow Messi leave and cash out on him, how the hell are you gonna keep someone somewhere against his own wish

At this stage barce should negotiate Messi’s exit and bartomeu should resign please.

I still.maintain

MESSI IS NOT LEAVING

FirstbornWds:
He go affect una sef.

Sure.
It is already affecting Laliga itself.

Zeemuthafuka:
won't you shut up?

In just burst into laughter reading his comments.

Barca is battling issues with its players, but baba is more concerned with Madrid in the market negotiating sales of it's players.

Some days back he was more co concerned with Ronaldo Instagram and Twitter post.

Talk of absolute lack of focus. From Barca board to Messi FC

The elders of Umoufia (Barcelona) have sat down, and Ikemefuna (Ansu Fati) has served them with kola nuts.

Maaze Okereke ( Lionel Messi) hits his chest #8 times, points #2 fingers to the sky and shouts �
" It’s been #12 days since Okonkwo (Lewandowski) and his people (Bayern Munich) raided our village and rendered us useless"....

If Umofia and it people (Barcelona and the fans) are not ready to dethrone the Igwe (Bartomeu) and bring in new and young warriors (Players) to fight, I Maaze Okereke (Messi) am moving to Umbaino (Manchester City).

There is actually a report about that..

The story is actually not a lie.

But the reporter is a lie.

Joke below is for you to cool off the tensions

tesppidd:

Chineekeeeee,

We often forget that FOOTBALL is BUSINESS before SPORTS.

Only a fool will allow Messi leave for free. Of which by the way MESSI IS NOT LEAVING BARCA.

There is no sensible reason for leaving moreso no viable no option to leave to.

This not the first time Messi leaving rumor will be coming up. He has renewed contract more times than Real Madrid has won the Champions league this century.

SE QUEDA ... MESSI

P.S.
He would definitely not want to leave in this low esteem circumstance and inglorious manner.

Just want to remind you all that MESSI IS NOT LEAVING BARCELONA.
I also want to add your so called old legs will have most of them still staying.
i want to also kind off say BARTOMEU IS NOT RESIGNING AS PRESIDENT EITHER

This is not the first time all this is happening.

Galactico4ever:
European haul complete

We need to form a women's team.

we already have one

homesteady:
My unpopular opinion - The club shouldn't allow Messi to leave for free. That clause that allows him to leave has expired, therefore, if he wants to leave now, let someone come and buy him.

Drop £150 million. Cash and carry. This is even far far below his release clause of 700 million or so.

Let it get messy, I don't care. Because to be very honest, I don't see any very serious reason for why Messi will want to leave in this kind of circumstances. The very least he would have done was to make the club benefit from his departure financially and not just leave the club hanging dry.

LordAdamX:
Age doesn't matter.

If a Ronaldo or Messi is on the market, you buy no questions asked. Then ask your coach to fit either in. If he can't, he gets the boot. The next one can't, he gets the boot. Any player who can't, gets the boot as well. In fact, if your Sporting Director disagrees, he gets the boot as well.

It's when you don't have the money or have a strict transfer policy (looking at you Bayern), that the age excuse crops up.

PSG had contact with Ronaldo earlier this year, he's 35 turning 36. And if they're getting Messi, they'd get Ron next year.

Of course, in the press, they'd say it's for the UCL, but everybody in the club management will cash out. It's marketing / star power. No cons, only pros.

Wia is usbcable sef?

-Lord

i have not been able to keep up with the Messi discussions bro.

I totally dont see any reason to believe he is leaving Barcelona

tesppidd:
At this rate they are soon going to blame Messi for allowing his team mates go to the dressing room at half time.
Real soon.

you just dont get the point. its not hating Messi.

no wahala jare.

tesppidd:
What would be your opinion on Messi if you were a fan of Barca's?

Forgetful jones you are.

I already said he should stay and i still repeated it in this comment.

or you thought i was saying he should leave Barca? That would be great news for us.

i dont want and dont see Messi leaving the club.

Not even at this moment that the season starts next month.

that will be a problem for both him and any club he chooses.

The Club needs to think through what it wants to do. Rushing to take decisions with the rush of blood to the head maybe counter productive.

Infact i dont see many of the "so called" old guys leaving immediately. They are the experience that any young blood brought in will feast on for guidance

Zeemuthafuka:
Chai...

Okay let me ask you something...how do you cure low morale and weak mentality in a football team?

As in I just shame reading that comment.

he just nailed what we have been trying to make him realise sinceeeee.

Again, I honestly dont know how to put this without looking like a hater. I have long realised Messi is not the vocal type. I recall posting here years back then about giving him the arms band despite he talks little.

its his nature not to talk a lot in front of cameras. so its not a bad thing but in certain scenarios you need such vocality.

Terry - Chelsea
Gerrard - Liverpool
Maldini - AC Milan
Viera - Arsenal
Keane - Man Utd
Khan - Bayern
Barca - Puyol

we all cant be the same but considering the fact that same shit is coming from his comrades on the pitch fro years in a row he needs call them to order.

but again as he leads with delivering goals the least is that the like of Pique should be more in leading the backline at least.

In Real Madrid we have same issue with Varane. Despite spending this much years with Ramos dude hardly says much on the pitch which is why no one trust him to lead well when Ramos is not around. Sadly he did not disappoint against Man City

tesppidd:
Nonsense.

Leadership is also when your team is 1 nil down.

And you motivate them to turn the game around.

Not only 2 legged ties.

Why are you clowning tonight usb.?

tesppidd:
You did not have the lead when Juve pulled back from a 3 nil deficit and you had to be saved by an 89th minute penalty abi?
Tell me you still win the game. Tell me!

Don't give me that carp about already had the advantage.
Motivating is not only when you already have an advantage. Even when you have a disadvantage it is still called motivating. The word hasn't changed.

You can't redefine the word.

You must be able to motivate your team back to victory even when you're down by 1 nil.

the tam did not lower their heads during the match.

even at that you cant compare to Thunder striking 4 years in a fucking row.

that is not normal at all

tesppidd:
Who says it can't happen to any team? Then you don't know anything about football.

No team is immune to that, it just cannot happen to every club.

You forget how Madrid(with Ramos and Ronaldo) beat Juve 3-0 in the first leg in 2018 and then Juve were leading them in the second leg by 3 nil until they had to be saved by a controversial 89 minute penalty to go tru?

You don't know football.

If you well recall despite being 3-nil down Ronaldo was still edging the boys on.

Not that it guarantees anything but its tells the others not to loose faith.

during battles you will see the platoon captain urge the infantry on even though he knows they have little or no chance of winning but alas luck can shine on them and by that stroke get a chance to win the battle and even at times the war


no one is saying MESSI is the problem. even someone said if Pique could be more with commandeering the defence that would be enough.

haymekus:
Mehn you keep emphasizing the 5-0 loss which was just a mere 3 point loss, do you think if the match was a ucl game and RMD 4-0 at Santiago, they will lose 5-0 at camp nou?


Mehn, Barcelona loss 3-0 after leading a massive 4-1, they still loss 4-0 after leading 3-0. The fact still remains that Barcelona as a club has lacked a real leader both on the bench and on the field of play ever since Enrique and xavi left.

Would Barca defence capitulate like that during Puyols days even when he was aging?

He is too scared to say anything against Messi.

THAT HAS ALWAYS BEEN HIS CROSS. Saying it does not mean you hate him mr tesspidd

tesppidd:
Completely irrelevant.

It doesn't have to be a 2 legged tie.

We are talking motivation here. It must not be 2 legs for Ramos or Ronaldo to motivate.

When you're down 1-0; you should motivate.
2-0 you should motivate.
3-0 you should motivate.

E com reach 5-0.


As for the second paragraph, nothing like almost for the matter.

You must motivate to win.

But since time immemorial the examples given are these two legged ties.
Your team capitulated 4 years in a row to better teams and underdogs alike and worse still against all odds.

LEADERSHIP is UNDERRATED by your clouded sentiment.

tesppidd:
You have completely gone off the rail.

We are talking about motivation. Not conquering a boogie team based on other factors.

yes.
motivating the team not to collapse when facing an opponent especially when you had the advantage and they were the supposed underdog.
Juventus, Roma and Liverpool losses are outrageous enough. That of Bayern destroyed your defence arguments.

GrammarNazi1:
Even biased Real Madrid fans have an opinion over matters concerning Barcelona.

we care.



i am though not being biased with what i am saying and its not banter

tesppidd:
So when Pelegrini was coach the vocal Ramos and Ronaldo cannot motivate again?

I know you have beaten Athletico black and blue even with Ronaldo scoring 10 goals in one game. Fine!
My own is why didn't Ramos and Ronaldo 'motivate' during the 4 nil thrashing.

Because that's what I am made to believe here; when Ramos and Ronaldo are 'motivating' the team, they don't receive any thrashing.
And that we are performing poorly because nobody is 'motivating' us.

and in the one of instance where ATM beat Real Madrid 4-0, the point is
-once is one-off
-twice is a coincidence
-thrice is a cause for concern
-four times means its an habit that needs therapy

to make it worse it was back-toback-toback-toback.

note i have not said anyone names, because i know your mind is one your beloved.

tesppidd:
Nowadays?

The ones I see nowadays could not "motivate" their teams to beat small small Ajax and Lyon.

As I said context matters.
Give an example where either was in a team that won the first leg by a margin of at least 2-0 to loose by 3-0, 4-0 or 2-8?

Ronaldo almost pulled Juventus through against Lyon while Ajax loss was a total disastrous season for the whole squad.

by the way if leadership is non essential would you give Ansu Fati the captain armsband

Ramos and Ronald of thsoe early days are not same ones you see nowadays.

both are European Champions and one is a Worldcup Champion too.

Leadership is key and its is not a farce. or will you give the captains arm band to Ansu Fati?

tesppidd:
Ronaldo and Ramos, were they not staying and looking when we bashed them 5-0.?

Ronaldo and Ramos, were they not staying and looking when Athletico bashed them 4-0?

Ronaldo and Ramos, were they not staying and looking when Lyon dumped them out some years ago?

I am not saying shouting makes you win. but fact remains that leadership is key in anay endeavour.

ina corporate setting the team lead must show resilience during a crises same as the unit head else everywork doen by the brilliant and dumb member of the team will go to naught.

as for those matches you gave as examples the 5-0 was over a decade ago. even in the retrun leg you could see the grit displayed to gaet a draw and then same grit displyed to win the Copa DEL Rey.

as for ATM it is one of those bleeps. we have dished out beating upon beating for them marshalle dby both Ramos and Ronaldo (Hatrick master)

Lyon dumped us out when Pelegrini was head coach.

Zeemuthafuka:
Kiyan and Om are the 2 MVP's there...the other guy that talks mainly about injuries is also good...

I didn't know you were an SBnation follower what moniker did you disguise yourself as there? I won't spill

I am more of a reader than commenter unlike here that I talk more than reading.

Zeemuthafuka:
This was a really good read..soo much research was put into writing this article

https://www.managingmadrid.com/2020/8/14/21365130/martin-odegaard-change-way-real-madrid-plays-zidane-injury-allow-him-tactical-analysis-real-sociedad

Om always as in always goes to great lenghts to show and prove his points with data and facts.

He is one of the writers I like most on the blog

Lucas on the other hand is all emotion and bias for any player Spain. He is there simply because he is admin no real sensible content from him.
He is so bad that even player ratings from him creates uproar on the blog since he rates as if his glasses was faulty while watching the matches

Even Kiyan is far more intelligent than him.

Neymar1095:
ok i have arrived.

how on God's blessed earth did you miss last weeks carnival here?

Virus99:
Asin, it beats me too why vinicious was left on bench to gather dust

Is Mbappe even a prolific scorer ? How many CL goals this season

I can even excuse Vini being on the bench.
what i cant phantom, comprehend or excuse is having Hazard travel to England much less see the pitch and play that much minutes.

this is aside Modric lack of help to the defence to collect the ball from them to ease the press from Man City

pu7pl3:
This week has been soo satisfying...I know I'm not alone on this

ATM - check
Barca - check
Man City - check

PSG - check check

tesppidd:
I wouldnt say lucky.

But rewatch Lyon's second goal that made it 2-1 and tell me why that goal was allowed to stand.

Even with Stevie Wonder as centre referee and a sheep in charge of the VAR room, that goal shouldn't stand.

I really don't understand how VAR works any longer.

It was during the post match analysis that I noticed the clip on the boots too.

The focus was more on if the ball touched the Lyon player before getting to Dembele

VAR could have done better truly but again Sterling was supposed to be scoring from that range on an open net
