Re: The Lionel Messi Appreciation Thread & Fan Club
Mourinho: "Messi sacrificed himself for the team. He wanted to win, he didn't wanted to be topscorer or mvp, he wanted to make history.
He played in zones that are not his. He had to play so low that he had to cross 2-3 lines. Always had 2-3 players on him. Messi was trying to create something out of nothing for his team. His assist to Di Maria was for example brilliant.
If Messi wanted to be the phenomenon we all know he is, he'd just have played up front, close to Higuain, waiting for a chance.
All my respect to Messi because he played for his team and this can't be said of all players at this World Cup."

Yeah, I really don't see how you can fault his final performance, other than he was knackered in the end as everyone else.
Worked hard and played great.

The fact that you of all people are now quoting Mou as a way to prove a point is absolutely surreal and ridiculous lol

Re: The Lionel Messi Appreciation Thread & Fan Club
Wait weren't we fed endless stories about how Messi was saving himself etc?
Anyway the criticism for Messi is way too high tbh, but when you have people like Jiopsi in your corner it's no wonder people are letting La Pulga have it.

Javier Mascherano - "Without him (Messi) it would not have been possible for us to play a WC final. For the general viewer if he does not score a goal or two it may seem he is not playing well, but he gives us many other things in the field.
We left him alone too much. Messi gave the team more than the team gave Messi. At a certain point we changed our strategy and the most disadvantaged as a result was Messi"

There are fns like Jiopsi everywhere. It's one's decision to hate on a player ...
