What the hell is wrong with Messi lately? He is not running - he is walking on the pitch, just waitihg the ball to come to him. It's like he doesn't care playing.

I don't know but it is only natural that Messi who has been clearly the best player in the world for many years now, scoring ridiculous amount of goals (even if it is La Liga) and has won the CL 3 times is now having some difficulties to find the same kind of passion that used to have before all this glory.

Maybe it is just a passing thing but actually I have been waiting when Messi's decline will happen. He is human after all.

I know, i ws waiting for the same, the thing is, it's not a bad form, he looks totally uninterested, is doing pretty much nothing, and is simply walking. Looks bored with every move he makes. In the past 3-4 games that is.

Messi needs to get his shit together otherwise Barca are screwed

The thing is Messi can't perform if rest of his team doesn't perform. Towards the end Barca started playing better and so did Messi. He is a different player than say Maradona who used to carry the team on his shoulders.

That is why no matter how many goals Messi scores and how many trophies he wins, he won't be as good as Maradona.


On a different note, what a game! Madrid were just amazing! And without Ronaldo!!

People are acting like Maradona played with 10 year kids....

Maradona was a playmaker, Messi is a striker.

No but you can't compare the players around Messi to players around Maradona.

It's a known fact that Maradona used to carry the team on his shoulders but Messi can't. I believe big names in football have said the same thing over and over again repeatedly.

Two completely different positions and roles. Kind of a harsh comparison?

Not really. In the quarterfinals against PSG last season Messi pretty much turned the tie around for them.

I don't remember that game so I can't comment but sure there have been few exceptions. Even though, giving just one example doesn't prove anything.


Arrigo Sacchi: "The better Barcelona plays the better Messi plays and vice versa. He is not similar to Maradona who used to carry the team on his shoulders most of the time. Messi's not the best I've seen. Maradona had more talent."

Also, why is it a harsh comparison? It's not like I'm comparing a forward to a GK. I am talking about two offensive players of somehow similar qualities.
