Take it.

Happy Birthday.

I feel like he's crossed a threshold from 'wonderkid prodigy' status to 'established legend'.

Happy birthday to a true genius. It's great even if we get to see one player like him playing in our life time.

As far as I know he is single now and there are rumors that he's become a party boy for a short time. So instead of one gift from one GF, right now there are too many girls wanting to gift too many things to him.

Really ? Isn't she like his childhood sweetheart and aren't they from the same town and everything ? Would be sad if it is true...always admired Messi for how he carries himself off-field.

Yeah they had a fight and broke it off more than half a year ago.

To be very honest I share some of your sentiment. However I am also realistic enough to understand what kind of a world we live in and how desires and expectations keep increasing all the time - even more so among the rich and the famous. Breakups including divorces have become a very regular part of life. Messi is after all else a human being. I will not hold him wrong till it is ever revealed that he has committed some kind of crime, broken some commitment to any individual or shown any lack of desire and fight while playing for country or club. By and large beyond that paradigm he is free to live his life as he pleases and he will still be a big hero in my eyes.

Dude, tbh... at the end of the day, all of his off field antics are really none of your business. So regardless of if he cheated on his girlfriend with a million other girls, you can't "hold it against him". As it's his life to live. Too often players are placed too highly on pedestals only to be criticized and scrutinized for any little mistake that they make. People often forget that they're just people and will make human mistakes.

Enjoy when they're out on the field, everything else, isn't our business.

Yes he's getting older.. 10 more years till retirement age!! haha

just kidding.

Well I think you guys understood me...it's not like it made me think any less of Lionel because I do not know the perimeters...just sad in terms of I thought they were a nice couple with a nice story, etc. Lionel is still the classiest top five player in the world by far.

Yeah, me too.

And she had

thats a shame. felt being in a stable, healthy relationship with his childhood sweetheart helped to keep him from the party animal lifestyle that led to our other genius ronaldinho's downward spiral. but seeing as all he did at that sex party was play fifa, I'm not overly concerned just yet.

Messi escapes "sex and alcohol" party unscathed

Barcelona star Lionel Messi is back in Argentina preparing for the Copa America and it seems his countrymen are eager to give his nice-guy image a touch of the Charlie Sheens, with daily newspaper Libre claiming the World Player of the Year attended a "sex and alcohol" party in Buenos Aires.

Now Off The Ball can count on no hands the amount of soirees it has been to where at least one person hasn't drunk a beer or slipped away on a promise, but it's usually just called a party, with no need for the sex and alcohol pre-fix, but let's run with it.

Libre report that Messi's bash was hosted by reality TV beauty Xoana Gonzalez and a bevy of other South American sex symbols, including Playboy model Claudia Ciardone, lingerie model Andrea Rincon and former WAG Sabrina Ravelli, with the little maestro turning up in the company of the Milito brothers, Gabriel and Diego, and cape-wearing Boca Juniors legend Martin Palermo.

However, Messi still managed to emerge with his clean-cut image intact after telling the newspaper: "We just danced and then we played some PlayStation."
