All that talent, but no taste.

Talents never had taste. All their taste focuse at one thing and they suck at other things

And I still maintain that had we traded Suarez for Messi,we would be a better side today,provided we had a competent manager at the helm and not the fraud.
Suarez can do do everything Messi does but he can also press.
Despite Messi improving this season he still doesnt press to the required extent and we are still pathetic as a pressing unit.
Pressing is a major tactical weapon whether Barca fans want to admit it or not and as long as Messi is in the side,we cant press.
A Neymar,Suarez and Sanchez forward line would have been lethal offensively and been a brilliant pressing unit.

suarez tonight could barely get a pass right let alone a dribble
he isn't 1/4 of what messi is and it's a shame we are weakening our team by pushing our best player out wide to let this guy do nothing.

If he bothers he is a supreme ball winner. Tackles won 19 vs. 1. Totally hilarious that "Ronaldo = beast athlete" narrative. It doesn't make any sense at all. Yes, Ronaldo is a tall guy but he doesn't ride challenges and stays on his feet or outmuscles opponents off the ball with his athleticism. It's the typical "Zlatan = looking like a tower = great at headers" narrative. Even though he is shit at it and Alexis Sanchez is better in the air.

Yeah I'd be interested to see how that stat compares with previous seasons

He looks so motivated right now.

I am worried that he is going to leave this summer btw. After the World Cup, Mourinho came out and defended how Messi played. Then Messi voted for Mourinho in the best coach award at the Ballon d'Or ceremony, even though Mourinho wont absolutely nothing. Then he follows Chelsea on IG and makes a comment he doesnt know what the future holds.

Actually when messi presses other player has no chance. When other player makes one step messi will make two steps at that time. His acceleration and agility is unmatched. He is small but he stays on his feet and pushes the victim until he gets his lovely toy

I have seen numerous times when messi presses other player acts strange, looks lost and funny under unexpected pressure

“I have played against both Madrid and Barca, and you can’t compare Cristiano to Barca’s Messi. Messi alone is more dangerous than Ronaldo, Bale and Benzema put together,” Simone told reporters.

Coach Messi

Pretty sure he never said that.

Not too sure either, but a few people have been posting this through twitter etc, as well as couple of sites.

If he said that it would have made the Spanish journals and probably been front page news. They didn't pick it up. Because he didn't say it.

True, enough.

Its also difficult for me to believe. so i tried to find original source and could not find. Simeone is a smart man, cant believe him saying that.

Image of Lionel Messi Staring at World Cup Named Sports Photo the Year

It really is a fantastic picture. So close, yet so far

What a photo.

FC Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi has had a spectacular start the new year and is already ahead of where he was in his world-record year, where he went on to score 91 goals in 2012.

The Argentine has scored 11 goals in all competitions since the turn of the year, which is three goals more than he had at the same stage in 2012.

In 2012, Messi started the year with six La Liga goals and two in the Copa del Rey. He scored his ninth goal of the year on Valentine's Day that year.

In 2015, however, Messi has already scored eight La Liga goals, plus an additional three in the Copa del Rey.

In his record year, Messi added an additional five goals by the end of February to finish the first two months of the year on 14 goals.

The 27-year-old has four games - La Liga clashes against Levante, Malaga and Granada, as well as a Champions League tie with Manchester City - to stay ahead of his record year.

Of his 91 goals at the end of the 2012 calendar year, which saw him beat Gerd Muller’s world record of 85 goals in 1972, Messi scored 12 for Argentina and 79 for Barcelona.

The record year he also reached the ucl final and has super copa and uefa super cup to play in thus more games to score in. So if he wants to keep pace he needs to play in more games than what we did last season

Or he could score more braces and hat tricks :p
