You don't become official until you've had your presentation and get your first kit

[weary depot]

[weary depot]

too bad he won't get out of a pocket until full time 😂

Because the club's milking his name right now, and he's still not official yet

Jude +90, jude +90

Also vinicius hattrick in 36 minutes

[weary depot]

[shell hedge]

At least wait until after that to start calling him "a Madrid player"

[thick sky]

You can t argue with barcelona fans

[weary depot]

as long as the announcement is there he's yours

u don't decide

[shell hedge]

They usually don't do it like this, the only reason they're doing it with Mbappe is because the club knows that people will jump, and so far they are

[weary depot]

the announcement is there means he signed the contracts means he's there

[shell hedge]

And he hasn't had his presentation yet

[thick sky]

Why are you even talking about this

Changes nothing

Barcelona fans wish he played for them anyways 😭😭😭

[weary depot]

Lewa had his presentation after playing a game

[thick sky]

Lewa s case

[weary depot]

after his recent performances?

[thick sky]

I am done

[shell hedge]

Things are different for Barcelona, and he's not Lewandowski

[weary depot]

it's not about clubs it's about how transfers work

the player is urs if u signed the contract

that's how it is

[shell hedge]

And things for Real Madrid don't get settled in until after the player's presentation

[weary depot]

if there's a club match today he'd play for Madrid

not for PSG not for any other club

[shell hedge]

and if a million dollars were to fall from the sky and land on my doorstep, I'd be rich

[weary depot]

over exaggeration

you'd prob waste it the day after

2. nico has clearly contacted the club over his concern about the press attacking him, which would just put him off furhter from a move

Boniek hits Lewandowski, diploma scandal!

Zbigniew Boniek reacted immediately to the accusations of Dr. Barbara Mrozińska, who accused Robert Lewandowski of buying the diploma. Boniek suggested that Lewandowski is not the only athlete with a purchased education, which caused a wave of comments on social media. The case concerns diplomas obtained by Lewandowski at a private university in Łódź, and not at a Warsaw university, where the authenticity of his degrees is beyond doubt. Lewandowski's former manager, Cezary Kucharski, expressed surprise, claiming that the footballer had no time for secret learning.

Media outlets rank hin top 5 to win golden boy award btw

For the sole reason that he'll play for real Madrid next season they have him above the likes of mainoo or cubarsi

[grave glen]

Fucking hell

[shell hedge]

Strikers usually do hover above midfielders and defenders, yes

[versed shard]

[vivid wagon]

besides the point that man hasnt even played in europe yet

i left out garnacho he was below endrick too

like i get the hype arounf endrick and he ll probably be successful in a club like madrid.. but its too easrly to rank him that high in a golden boy list before he has even come to europe

[grave glen]

yes because palmeiras is just an academy level team and being a key part of a historic 13-point comeback to secure a title as a 17 year old is something any kid could do

[vivid wagon]

still not the same as ranking him above half of european talent 😭

id even bring up his copa performance but dont want to do so considering that entire brazil team was shite

[grave glen]

he started one game

lol

[vivid wagon]

yeah sure he definitely belongs on that list but definitely not top 5 and 100 percent not 2nd as score90 ranked him

[grave glen]

score90 is never right

they had mexico top 3 favorites to win copa im pretty sure

their lists are always jokes

[vivid wagon]

yeah that entire brazil team was shite cant pinpoint players

[grave glen]

was his first ever start for the selecao ever but regardless if brasil won it probably wouldve been his last for the copa

cuz vini wouldve been back

brasil is so fried

just hope he doesnt turn into vini who cant show up for brasil if his life depends on it

[vivid wagon]

brazil will need a miracle like that with this team ngl theyre so lackluster

Ballon dor should be between him and Kroos

Great player

[grizzled patio]

No

wasnt even spains best player

[shell hedge]

Wasn't even Spain's best midfielder

[grizzled patio]

and how on earth is the ballon dor between Kroos and Rodri

you know the season lasts from August to now right

[grave glen]

Whats with this Rodri agenda. Hes a great player, his only stinker was against Croatia. His ability to manipulate the tempo at will, how he gently guides his team to either attack or defend as the situation calls for it, his ability to defend by blocking off channels for passing

His ball carrying abilities

Again, great player. And yes, easily Spain's best midfielder

[grizzled patio]

Olmo and Ruiz??

[grave glen]

As great as they've been, they cant do the things Rodri do and has been doing

Again, its between Rodri and Kroos. If not, at least probably Chinajal

For me of course

[grizzled patio]

well

sure

but the real top 5 is Vini, Bellingham, Carvajal Rodri and Kroos

the madrid players won 3 trophies last season

Vini performed well in La Liga and UCL

Bellingham performed well in La Liga but was poor in the knockouts

we will see what happens

[grave glen]

At the end of the day itll most likely be between Vini and Bellyham. Based on merit alone, my selection is strictly the last 3

Good for him

[kindred stag]

He looks kinda...

[thick saddle]

nah same 😭 but happy for him

[kindred stag]

I thought it's going to lamine 100%, but sure I'll take it

[low delta]

It was going to be Bellingham till all “barca” fans along side Man City bayern Dortmund Liverpool etc etc started repping rodri hard asf for the award

[kindred stag]

Too bad he didn't win the euros no?

And too bad vini was invisible for brasil

Twitter · Jul 15, 2024, 8:47 AM

It’s absurd how people call him “consistent”

😭

[low delta]

Carried his team no?

Vini was just getting in touch with his national journey

He’ll bounce back stronger just see

[copper bison]

yeah idk

[low delta]

Imagine if rodri wins

Would be a disgrace for football

[copper bison]

rodri did play good in the euros but fabian deserved it more imo

[low delta]

Valverde has been more consistent than rodri lmao

[low hedge]

What on earth is this? Don't look at ratings online, Bellingham had a bad game.

[low delta]

Olmo/ruiz

Far more

[low delta]

No he didn’t charley

[half sinew]

maybe bellingham would get it if he didnt ghost half of international games

[low delta]

Just like I said it, He was getting in touch with his national team like Vini did in his last match

They’re just getting to their primes

And getting better with national teams too

They did very good in their last matches tho

Rodri didn’t

[half sinew]

vini already has 33 caps and still is getting into touch?

[low delta]

😭

[low delta]

Yea because he’s just entered his prime

Don’t get me wrong

[low hedge]

Def have to agree to disagree there. He didn't really offer anything

[low delta]

So who did

Rodri?

[half sinew]

got injured

[thick saddle]

Yeah cause Rodri is better than Bellingham 💀

[low delta]

His half was invisible too

Zubimendy is better than rodri

[low hedge]

I'm speaking of England in the final. Saka was the only player to have more than like a 4/10 for England lol

[foggy cape]

[low delta]

Hahaha

[foggy cape]

I’m headed out

[low delta]

Lmfao

[thick saddle]

Man you really trust fotmob with the ratings…

[vivid wagon]

what are these ratings even based off?

[half sinew]

no way yamal has the same G/A for national team as Vini 😭

[thick saddle]

This is honestly crazy. Don’t know if you watched the game but Bellingham wasn’t that good

[thick saddle]

Bro what are you even saying 🤡

[vivid wagon]

generally a goal tends to inflate the rating lmao you can be the worst player on the team get a goal suddenly u have a 9 rating

[low delta]

Okay so
Vini is trash in his national team
Bellingham is just complete mid
Mbappa is ass and ghosted
Rodrygo is “Bengali”
yamal better than arda
So Madrid will defo not win anything right?

[thick saddle]

Exactly

[low delta]

We’ll talk next season

👋

[vivid wagon]

"bengali" is craazy 😭

[low delta]

Lmao ikr😭

Honestly I love barca fans who are actually genuine

I don’t even hate barca

Some Barca fans piss me off

[low delta]

I like you and nick in general as of this server tbf

Scourge too

[thick saddle]

There are always shitty fans in literally every club

[low delta]

Yea

[vivid wagon]

idk if i should take that as a compliment but thanks i guess 💀

[low delta]

As like in barca fan

I am biased kinda too😭

[low delta]

This😭

[vivid wagon]

yeah zubimendi is NOT better than rodri 💀💀

only one who comes close to rodri rn is kroos when he drops deep

[low delta]

Honestly imo and this is no bias

But top 3 actually natural midfielders

Rodri is first

Then valverde am not being biased

Then comes someone else

[low delta]

Yeah Kroos rodri valverde

It’s just that trio

Top 3 in the world right now

[vivid wagon]

ill not even be mad if kroos wins the balandor man but its prolly going to be bellingham or vini 😭

[low delta]

I mean idrc who wins it

I really really wanted

Kroos to win it

But fuck it

That 17yo kid crushed our dreams

😭

[vivid wagon]

but i can see why they wont give kroos the balandor even if he was favourite to win it
idt they ll be comfortable with calling a retired player the best in the world

but honestly speaking he deserves it

[low delta]

Yea

[vivid wagon]

but rodri definitely deserves the balandor if he gets it he directs play so well its unreal 😭

ratings usually discredit defensive midfielders but imo its the most important role in a midfield

thats why busi was often slept on whenever there was a iniesta-xavi convo

[grizzled patio]

he wont win the ballon dor

wasnt even spains best midfielder

its between vini and jude

[half sinew]

international flops?

[foggy cape]

Won’t win cause of attackers bias

[grizzled patio]

they win the league and UCL already

won

euros and copa america would only bump them up further

[foggy cape]

[half sinew]

crazy that yamal has more contribution than vinicius in the national team

[grizzled patio]

so Yamal for ballon dor then

didnt perform at club level tho

7 game tournament

meanwhile Vinicius performed in over 40 games

4 goals in 2 finals

[versed shard]

Huh

[weary depot]

tell me you don't watch ball without telling me you don't watch ball

[vivid wagon]

bro hasnt watched a single barca game 💀

[vivid wagon]

yeah

[grizzled patio]

I watched how Yamal crumbled in all of the most important games at club level

Didnt win a single classico

5-3 to villareal

4-2 bilbao where he missed an open goal

4-1 psg where he was hooked after 30 minutes

but give him the ballon dor cause he was balling against granada and almeria 🍚

[versed shard]

Damn

[vivid wagon]

the entire team crumbled

yamal is literally the most dangerous attacker we have

[opal obsidian]

dawg have you watched barca

stop blaming the kid for the faults of our team

[vivid wagon]

and all games you mentioned were lost due to defensive mistakes man was the best player that psg game until he was subbed off cuz araujo forgot how to defend

bro basically carried the team through the ro16

best player for barca in the second el classico

he did not “crumble” but the defence did

that el classico shouldve been ours if cancelo could defend 😭

[kindred stag]

@low delta relying on app ratings to prove a point😭

Watch a game, 🤡

Similar crimes have been committed against busquets, can't happen to rodri asw

[low hedge]

Stats are fine. They actually show what a player has done (and by stats I don't mean G/A), but fan voted ratings and website ratings are not it

[vivid wagon]

stats are fine yeah but if only app ratings were completely based on stats

[sleek echo]

It’s funny how premier league clubs think they can sign nico williams 😭

and prem fans

He’s coming to barca or staying in bilbao no other option

Not our problem atp, it’s gonna be a huge huge robbery if rodri wins

[terse cargo]

rodri ballon d'or is such a chronically online take

if u ask anyone irl about ballon dor nobody is gonna say rodri

[copper bison]

and they say madrid pr

[stoic rivet]

Hi

[grave glen]

Anyone besides Rodri, Kroos, or Carvajal would be quite the robbery, based on merit of course

But Rodri ain't gonna win it, I don't believe so

What makes u say that

Its just speculation until then

[terse cargo]

w carvajal prop tho

if not Vini then Carvajal

Not even the best player in Spain

NT

[shell hedge]

If they give it to him for winning a national team trophy and getting an individual award that he didn't deserve, the French federation's argument would purely be "fuck club football"

Because there are several players that deserve it after their previous club season

[versed shard]

🔥

[ripe field]

we're chilling next szn

[grave glen]

Not really. Anyone besides Kroos, Rodri, and Carvajal is the wrong answer. Ur gonna give it to someone who hasn't had a good game since Feb (Bellyham)? Or someone whos been a bit too inconsistent at times even tho he's the better alternative (Vini)? Based on merit, better to give it to someone who was the sole reason for leading his club to major trophies this season

Of which, again, Rodri, Kroos, and Chinajal fall under

[ripe field]

this is so undeserved bro

just cuz he plays for city

[grave glen]

Those three are simply far far far better than Bellyham

[ripe field]

vini deserves it icl

bellingham doesnt

[grave glen]

Sure

[ripe field]

hes been shit in 2024

[grave glen]

If it's strictly between those two then yes, give it to vini

But u can have more ideal options

[grave glen]

He was good in Jan

Dunked on Barca

[ripe field]

yea

[grave glen]

And dunked on atletico

[ripe field]

1 month out of 7

[grave glen]

In Feb, after that he disappeared

[ripe field]

overall has been shit in 2024

[grave glen]

Factos

[ripe field]

2023 he was great icl

rodri wasnt even spain's best player for me

that would easily be fabian

[grave glen]

For me he was. He was the architect of the team, easily controlling the tempo of the match and shutting off potential passing options from the opponents

[shell hedge]

Bellingham had an outstanding debut season for a midfielder and helped his club win four different trophies

[ripe field]

he had an outstanding calendar year not season

[grave glen]

Sure. In 2023

[shell hedge]

the only thing Rodri won with City was the Premier League, and that's become the bare minimum for City

[ripe field]

fabian was literally something else man

reminded me of his napoli days

the problem i have with rodri winning the ballon dor this season is the fact that

[grave glen]

Not necessarily. Rodri is the main guy behind City's success. Without him they're easily down the trenches. U can't really replace him

[ripe field]

he didnt play as good as in 2022/23 and is still getting the award

[shell hedge]

All of the actual candidates had a better season than Rodri

[ripe field]

there were also a lot better players than rodri

as much as i hate to admit it the reason why rodri is getting ballon d'or shouts is cuz madrid players are the favs to win the ballon d'or

[dim oak]

He deserves it anyway

Nothing can change that

[shell hedge]

Real Madrid almost had an historic season with all four candidates playing a part, where as Rodri and City were knocked out of the Champions League and only won the league

[grave glen]

Sigh, hating on greatness. I'm curious then, who else is better than Rodri at directing the play and tempo? Or closing down channels of passing without really lifting a finger?

[shell hedge]

Then why didn't he win it when City won the treble?

[ripe field]

thats his role in the team, we aren't gonna judge lamine on his ability to control the tempo in the game

[grave glen]

That's why I said based on "merit", on individual skills and how impactful and consistent they are

[shell hedge]

Why give it to him when City only won one major trophy?

[grave glen]

Bellyham being consistent when he's been shit since Feb? I'll pass. If not Rodri then at least give it to Kroos or Chinajal

[versed shard]

Facts

[ripe field]

yea im not saying bellingham deserves it

[shell hedge]

And Vinicius, Bellingham, Kroos and Carvajal were highly impactful

[ripe field]

vini deserves it more imo

even if he was shit in the copa america

[shell hedge]

Vinicius has been one of the most consistent goalscorers in the Champions League in that

[ripe field]

messi was shit in the 2010 world cup too yet he won the ballon d'or over xavi nd iniesta

[grave glen]

First two were hugely inconsistent, especially Bellyham. Consistent till Jan until he fell off a cliff. Vini, sure I suppose if its strictly between those two

[shell hedge]

Kroos was one of the best midfielders in the world last season, Carvajal was the best RB in the world last season

[ripe field]

vini was quite consistent lol

compared to bellingham

[shell hedge]

Vinicius was consistent, he just got injured multiple times at the beginning

Rodri shouldn't even be in the top 10 of the ballon d'or

[cloud sparrow]

ok but chat who won the euros

[grave glen]

Yes compared to Bellyham he was consistent. But on his own there were some times where u questioned his mentality

[grave glen]

Holy L lol

[cloud sparrow]

mort i thought you were a smart human being when it came to football opinions what do you call this

[ripe field]

rodri wasnt even getting ballon d'or shouts before the euros lol

[shell hedge]

Interesting, isn't it?

[cloud sparrow]

he was by some yea

[ripe field]

and then cuz he was in the euros winning team hes getting bdor shouts

[shell hedge]

Even though several different players were better than him

[low hedge]

Yeah it was dumb. Because City only won 1 trophy.

He's easily City's most important player. He should be up there for the trophy.

[shell hedge]

Even Olmo did better

[cloud sparrow]

rodri idc what anyone says for years he's been my number 1 midfielder in the world

[ripe field]

the only reason why im not saying olmo did better than rodri is cuz he was pretty much a bench player till pedri got injured

[cloud sparrow]

2022 rodri was underrated

[ripe field]

fabian was better than rodri in the euros ngl

[cloud sparrow]

dani olmo my lord and saviour of my midfield

[cloud sparrow]

depends how you wanna see it

[shell hedge]

It's not 2022, he's being nominated two seasons, too late

[cloud sparrow]

rodri impressed me but fabian underrated

[shell hedge]

If he was nominated after the season when City won the treble, it would've been justified but after last season, it's not

[low hedge]

The fact the Euros is being mentions shows why it's a dead award.

What you do in a few games (which Rodri was good anyway) doesn't change your performance over a season of 60 games

[ripe field]

rodri was already established as a star, people were ridiculing LDF for selecting him in the first place and he turned out to be iniesta on growth hormones this euros

[ripe field]

it does play a role lmao but it should not be the sole decider

[grave glen]

He didn't score or assist therefore Rodri, the best DM in the world, the architect of the midfield, whose absence makes City look like Fulham, isn't even a top 10 player

[ripe field]

rodri was good with city but not really a standout

[grave glen]

Someday the world will recognize ur greatness Rodri

[ripe field]

nobody is saying rodri is shit or city doesnt need rodri

[shell hedge]

Well I guess "if there's an international tournament after a club season, anything that happened during that club season immediately becomes null and void"

[ripe field]

im just saying he isnt the best player in the world last season

that wasnt even the best rodri version in city

[low hedge]

People are talking like it's the most important thing it's absurd. Had someone saying Fabian deserves it more because he's had a better Euros. Mental

[grave glen]

Sure, if that's ur opinion it's valid. Other than Rodri, Kroos and Chinajal are the next closest thing for the ballok do'r

But saying Rodri shouldn't be in the top 10...

L ngl

[ripe field]

he deserves to be in the top 10

but no where near winning the ballon d'or

would be like jorginho 2.0 except rodri didnt win the cl this season

[ripe field]

if it was solely on the euros then fabian should be the winner with lamine, nico, carvajal and olmo following 🤣

[grave glen]

Yes. And Rodri had a great season with City, as always. I'm just addressing the narrative of him not desvering to be in the top 10

"but, but, Premier League and Euros"

[low hedge]

Ballon d'or was about best player. Not player with the most trophies

Carvajal being anywhere near the top 50 is insane

[ripe field]

carvajal winning it would be like jorginho in 2021 with ucl and euros

[shell hedge]

And all of the four were the best in their position last season

[ripe field]

carvajal obv deserves to be nominated

but no where near the top 5

[grave glen]

All of which are valid until Feb btw. So ur gonna give the ballon do'r to someone who's been shit since Feb? I don't understand. And no Mort, having above average defensive stats doesn't make u a worthy contender, nor covering stinkers with last min goals

[grave glen]

Sure, give it to Vini if u wish

Or better yet, Chinajal

[grave glen]

Nah wdym

Easily top 5

Best RB in the world sadly

[ripe field]

fair enough

but one thing i dont understand is

how tf is mbappe making it into the top 10 of the ballon d'or

[grave glen]

My boi Kounde is closely second btw, just saying

thats actually baffling

It's banter Kami, rest

[grizzled patio]

with that logic Kane and Mbappe would have about 5 ballon dors

[low hedge]

Ballon d'or died in like 2005

[ripe field]

not racially motivated but its like saudinaldo

[grave glen]

That is true, that's what makes Mort's argument moot

[grizzled patio]

Trophies play a big role in ballon dor mate

whether you like it or not

[grave glen]

Yes, but it's not the end point

[low hedge]

Yeah it's why it's dead

[grave glen]

It's become a PR trophy sadly, nothing based on merit

[grizzled patio]

Farming goals in the bundesliga and ligue 1 shouldnt win you the ballon dor

[low hedge]

The likes of Nedved, Owen, Figo, Sheva, etc won it because of how good they were, regardless of trophies.

[grizzled patio]

performing in the big tournaments and winning it should

[grave glen]

Factos, holy cook

[low delta]

Who tf are you?

Random ass trying to enter into the convo

No point arguing when these are the rankings

[grizzled patio]

you want to discredit big major tournament performances

[low delta]

Messi is ahead of Mbappe,Kroos,Foden,kane etc

What the fuckkk

[shell hedge]

Also Carvajal's defensive stats was far from average, Bellingham didn't actually cover stinkers with last minute goals, he pretty much performed the same as everyone else in those matches

[low delta]

Yamal is literally 5

😭

[low hedge]

So if winning those tournaments should win you the Ballon d'or, how do players not from those nations win it? You're so slow dude

I am not discrediting him he’s defo like top 10/15

[low hedge]

I literally quoted you

[low delta]

Don’t know😭

[shell hedge]

Messi's there because Argentina won the Copa America last night, even though the only thing Messi did during the match was cry on the bench

[grizzled patio]

.

[grave glen]

Yamal should be in the top 10 btw, no questions asked

[grizzled patio]

it literally says win

[low hedge]

Perform AND win. Do you know what the 'and' means?

It means to do both

[ripe field]

why is bumbappe even in the top 10 😭🙏

[grave glen]

Respect Messi? He did well before he went off anyway. Let him rest

[grizzled patio]

thats a ballon dor criteria 💀

[ripe field]

he didnt do jack shit last season

[grizzled patio]

Messi performed in 2022 and won the WC

[low hedge]

No it's not? LOL😂

[shell hedge]

"scored a hat-trick in 2018 🌟 "

[grizzled patio]

Major tournaments are literally worth the most in ballon dor ratings

[ripe field]

icl that was his only good game in the copa america and the first match against canada

[low hedge]

Which French player won the 2018 Ballon d'or?

[grizzled patio]

you look at UCL and Euros/WC the most when the journalist vote

[grizzled patio]

Modric performed and won the UCL

[grave glen]

I think he did well against Canada and Colombia before he got annihilated. Point is, let the man rest and enjoy his life

[ripe field]

modric won it cuz of the wc and mbappe was 4th cuz of the world cup 😭🙏 messi shouldve easily been 2nd

[ripe field]

yea but he shouldnt even get nominated

[low hedge]

Because of not winning the WC 😭

[ripe field]

this is basically freebies for ronaldo

[grizzled patio]

there was no standout player for france in 2018

[grave glen]

He shouldn't, that's why I'm saying to let the man rest and enjoy his vacay

[grizzled patio]

literally had varane and umiti bail them out in the quaterfinal and semifinal

[grave glen]

If the ballon do'r was about the best player in the world then Messi would've won every single one tbf

[shell hedge]

I didn't say he couldn't enjoy his life, I'm saying he's there because eleven other players won a cup final for him

[grizzled patio]

No

[low hedge]

Which Italian player won ballon d'or in 2021?

[grave glen]

Yes. Fifa abusing his PR sadly

[grizzled patio]

Messi wasnt the best player in 22-23 season

[low delta]

I still don’t know why messi won it back then

[weary depot]

Jorginho was 3rd bc of the Euros

[shell hedge]

Messi shouldn't be allowed to participate anymore since he's an MLS player

[grizzled patio]

Messi wasnt the best player in 18-19

Ballon dor will mostly only go to forwards

[low delta]

2015 onwards, messi has stolen every ballon dor

[weary depot]

this logic is garbage lmao

[grizzled patio]

since its easier to judge them

[grave glen]

Yes Mort, I'm talking about in the past, the past decade

[low delta]

There’s no debate

[low hedge]

Old school ballon d'or so much better. Nedved won it because he was incredible that year. Despite no CL or Euros

[ripe field]

??? 😭😭😭

[grizzled patio]

Van Dij

Dijk

[ripe field]

2015?? 😭😭

[grave glen]

He's not wrong tho no? Contending outside of Europe isn't exactly a legitimate point

[ripe field]

both of them deserved it, theres a reason why messi only won by a margin of 7 points

[low delta]

How can a player go without getting dribbled past a single time, while playing every single game

[grave glen]

Lmao

[low delta]

It’s crazy bro

[ripe field]

it wasnt a clear robbery as you fans make it seem like

[shell hedge]

the MLS is terrible league with worse offensive and defensive structures than in women's football. Praising a foreign player for doing well in the MLS is like praising a five year old for kicking a football around

[grizzled patio]

Van dijk had an all time performance in the biggest club competition in the world and won it

[low delta]

Defenders don’t get enough credit

[weary depot]

ok but like Messi was good at the Copa

[low delta]

Fairs

[grizzled patio]

How do you win a ballon dor by bottling in a UCL semi final

[ripe field]

all timer against barca in the first leg 😭 (messi was the only good player in the 2nd leg vs liverpool)

[shell hedge]

Not as good as other players. If you're going to do that, you might as well nominate Martinez instead

[ripe field]

cuz he was the golden boot winner and had the most g/a, chances created etc

[grave glen]

2019 Messi was the best version of Messi btw. It was an epitome of what an individual masterclass performance is like. So I don't get the hate. Sure Van dijk deserved it, but so did Messi
