Messi has made a career of making any defender no matter their level look like jokes. I don’t think it matters one bit to him who he faces.
Happened to us with Vidic and Rio. Somehow he scored a header in a champions league final

I think he couldn’t do it physically any more, he played with a knee bandage for a very long time.
He reduced Boateng to a meme at Boateng’s peak too.Messi has made a career of making any defender no matter their level look like jokes. I don’t think it matters one bit to him who he faces.

Gotta love it when people dish Messi and shows their own Youtube clips of good passes, as if Messi has never done any of those, and never had any of those compilations
Hell I can't even find Messi total assist video probably because they could have taken hours of run time.
But hey, Maradonna make a great pass 50 years ago, he's the GOAT. Messi ain't got shit on him

Some were trying to downplay his assist vs Croatia when he toyed with Gvardiol too. Doesn't matter whether he is in the US or doing it against the best of them, it's always the opposition letting him do whatever he wants 
Delete this please
Ah, please...
I've been watching the brazilian league regularly and I can't remember a goal where a player just run through the defensive line without any defender even seeing him.
And it wasn't even a counter ffs.
Nobody is saying that Messi isn't capable of great through balls. Some of you are overprotective about him around here. Being so sensitive about other person, who doesn't even know you, is bizarre.
That moment against Boateng was pathetic, indeed; but it was an individual blunder, not the whole defensive system being blind and plain horrible.

Everything Messi does is rigged
That pass isn't humanly possible. Messi is a robot
Well yeah, now show the video of parades blasting the ball at the bench and no second booking.
5 penalties, Martinez allowed to cheat on the final shootout.
Football really is a joke these days.
He wasn't on a yellow when he did that. But whatever fits your agenda I suppose.
Usually if you try to rig a team to win you dont give the opposing team 11 minutes of extra time like the Netherlands or France 2 penalties in the final. Messi should have been booked for his handball though in the middle of the pitch though.

You also make sure they don't get the biggest goalscoring opportunity in the game when there is 10 seconds left to play. But I guess the ball was remote controlled to hit Martínez on that occasion.
I’d say you’re the bigger joke with these ridiculous takes
Considering i i think france 2nd pen was around 116th minutes straight after a Messi goal that put them ahead it was scripted to perfection.
hahaha good one I see what you did there...
yet maybe he actually had a little thing going on physically? dunno it always looked like he shifted his style just because he could, was easier and specially suited the predominant style of the Italian League at the moment

Van Gaal and argies do not mix well at all, specially regarding vintage style ones, the whole Di Maria affair here was more due to this thing than anything.
Louis always had a knack to be from blunt to cunning and very hardworking coach. His Ajax was a thing of beauty.
BTW as a side note, Molina when he enters the little area or has a chance to strike close from it has a very REAL talent to score, right now it's not just a Serie A season bleep with him, he actually is a very composed player when comes to definition and he has a great strike and touch in him in such situations

Regarding the issue with Messi since always being targeted as being helped (from Stamford Bridge, to La Liga Farmers League, to the "they let him pass", etc) or merely nit picking him, it's more related to the current Social Media, Forums, Internet in general period + extremely abundance of Yellow Press.
It's sthg that also happened to CR and with any current player, but majorly with these two.
There are two sides of this coin (like always are) the extreme praise and ubber praise for the current GOATs (for lack of better word, I hate it actually) and the ubber nitpicking "analysis" regarding them that GOATs in the past didn't suffer, but as long as it sells and WE as fans prolongue such behaviours will prevale.
BTW: Footbal as a sport it's still as dirty and managed by scumbags as any big human industry were Power and loads of money are involved, yet the above is clearly a Sign of the Times

How did this post beat quality control?
...I beat the quality corntrol supervisor
Neymar has had the same banner but in stadium.
Yes, it's Ultras grammar.
That's from a specific group that I gather is not popular with its own crowd. While the relationship with Neymar was rocky, there's been bouts of genuine passion. Messi left a very tepid impression, at best.

Early Veron was glorious for sure
Has the newbie system completely collapsed?
They asked Van Dijk about what Van Gaal said and he did not agree. The same with his teammates.
It is idiotic to suggest what he suggested having seen the same final match against France. There is no point in questioning or believing in theories. It is at the level of flat earthers really.

It just shows how incredibly bad the MLS is. Level of a 6th league, if at all.
Miami, in last place, hasn't won in what feels like two centuries, but is now winning 11 games in a row and also winning titles. Because of 1-2 new additions? This doesn't even exist in a 6th league. And all of this without sprints and 2 kilometers that Messi feels like he jogs in the game. Embarrassing circus league.

Tbf this is still Messi. I honestly dont know what impact Rooney, Beckham, Zlatan, Gerrard and Lampard had. I guess you could throw in Pelé and Cryuff but Messi, Alba and Busquets are an interesting cocktail at their ages in the MLS.
If you go to a random 6th tier team and add Messi, Busquets and Alba I assume they would start winning most matches.
Messi, Busquets, Alba, Aviles, Gomez, Farias along with replacing Phil Neville with Martino.. It's little to do with the quality of the league mate.
Seems like the Saudi League is at a much higher level
Some people are still salty.
And/or consistently bad posters.
terrible
Or perhaps it shows how good Messi is. Not that we needed any further evidence
Im here at the Monumental stadium to watch the man for the second time in my life
amazing free-kick again, just wow..
Must have been rigged or something
Im here at the Monumental stadium to watch the man for the second time in my life
well the Match was tough, didn’t happen too much.
But then the man paid my ticket
Another free kick goal. Just goes to show how terrible the MLS is.
Where is he all time with free kick goals now?
Edit: level with Becks with 65.
