The only kind of defending messi is the best at is defending his goal scoring records

When well-respected people come out with shit like this, I cry a tear or two for humanity.
*bleep* off Pep, he's not even joking either.
"He wins the ball back as a false 9."
Maybe twice a season, he doesn't even pressure or run off the ball ffs

Truely GOAT players can play any position, I think that's actually well known fact in football world. And Messi would be easily the best left back, if he played there. Doesn't even need a debate.

.......
You know for a fact, Messi would without a doubt be the best player in the world at a position which is completely alien to him?
My god, help me out people. Do I react with anger, disappointment? What?

Brb plays AM against Germany and gets destroyed
Brb takes until 2012 to perform for his country
Brb forces Ibra out of the club so he can have the team built around him
Brb moved from the wing because big teams have started to stifle him very easily
Brb Barca change set up against Milan in 2nd leg because he didn't have a shot on goal first leg
Brb Cesc does more than him against Bayern
Brb ur mad

He's better than Messi at being on the pitch when his team needs it.....as well as defending.

pls, don't bother with the haters, they apparently know more about him than his own coach.Harmonica wrote:Truely GOAT players can play any position, I think that's actually well known fact in football world.

Barca end of era solution: play Messi at left back

I hate it when people do the whole "Yeah, so YOU know better than *insert pro here*" sarcastic thing.
People need to stop believing everything a coach says is undisputable fact. It's simply not true.
Messi doesn't press, doesn't run much without the ball, is poor in the air (Inb4YoutubeMessiHeader) can't tackle to save his life and has no professional experience in playing a defensive role.
To assume he would just pop into a new role and be the undisputed No.1 player there is stupid to say the least.
"But TomJuve how on earth do you know more about football than A PRO COACH, *Rolls eyes* "
Well... I don't. But is Pep always correct in everything he says? Is any human being in the history of Mankind always correct when making a presumption? No they're not so stop treating a professionals quote like some sort of 'Word of God' and comparing them to a forum poster to back up your argument.
