Even then they barely lost to one of statistically strongest World Cup winners of all time. Even now Germany has WAAAAY more talent than Argentina.

None of those names come even close to Messi.

LOL!

Haha! That’s what I said too! His post was laughable.

Messi has played better then any of those guys year in and year out for over a

Argentina? Seriously, are you kidding?

Argentina is a great soccer country although they haven't had a defense in

Write "Argentina has the most talent other than maybe Brazil", earn a smiley face.

Or spending his entire pro club career with one team that has

The funny thing is that if you compare Messi with his peers at world-class clubs, he's still an outlier.

Always leads league in goals AND assists.

YSMACK

What's even more interesting is that it's not just a function of volume.

Why is loyalty to a club a bad thing? Also other clubs have out spent Barcelona

Dynasty1

4/16/19 7:54pm

Though few, if any, have spent as stupidly as Barcelona.

Not saying loyalty to one club is a bad thing . What I'm saying is in this

JmThms

It’s because saying cr7 is better is laughable.

This is what I'm talking abut. The laughable certainty.

Ronaldo deserves all of the accolades and praise that he gets but it's not like

Dynasty1

On top of that, Ronaldo requires a certain strategy to be effective. The team has to play for him.

That's what I'm saying about Messi and the warm, nurturing, consistent

That "cocoon" has changed systems and players, and has seen Messi play many different

mik3

But being tasked to play in different ways does not necessarily mean that player

JmThms

4/17/19 7:30pm

Still doesn't invalidate the point.

Amen. That is absurd. Messi put Argentina on his back and got them to the final

And they played France as well as anyone last summer

Good point. I forgot about that. They were the only tea that looks likely.

Messi was so gassed getting ARG to the Finals that he had nothing left. He had the worst game of just about any player

I don't think not having a WC trophy is a big factor in greatness.

JmThms

4/16/19 8:49pm

He was really good today, though the game's best goal was Coutinho's.

mik3

4/16/19 7:15pm

Nope. Messi's 1st was better. Coutinho has one move.

HoustonCougar

4/16/19 7:52pm

LOL. Messi is like a God to some people.

JmThms

Deservedly so.
