Hold up. Hold up. *RECORD SCRATCHES* *FRAME FREEZES* You're probably sitting there wondering how I, Leo Messi, have come to be considered as the best player of all time by most armchair football analysts everywhere. Imagine that! Me, a 5'5 Manlet with no heading ability, never won anything for my country, never performed outside of the same system, considered as the absolute GOAT! Haha, it's pretty funny to me too! Well it all started in 2006 after the universal decline in football...
good thread
>>64772494
*OLD FOOTAGE REWINDS* see after the 2006 world cup, any player who would put me to shame either declined substantially, or retired all together! It got so bad that someone like Pique is considered as an elite defender nowadays! Haha. But enough about that. Here's some highlights from my performance in the 2010 world cup..Oh what? There were no highlights? Moving on...
I don't even think I have a picture good enough to show how butthurt you are right now.
So have this picture of Federer making the exact same smirking face 6 different times, since it accurately describes how much of a joke you are.
>>64772494
>I, Leo Messi, have come to be considered as the best player of all time
Probably by spending your life searching social input in internet instead of enjoying the beautiful scenary of a semi cloudy evening like this one or honing any kind of abilities
you are a worthless retard who has resorted to shitposting in an effort to cover up the numerous times you have been called and blown the fuck out in countless threads about mandril and MESSI. your knowledge about football is pathetic and so are your attempts to fit in by posting controversial (read: retarded) garbage in a pseudo-confident manner.
stop posting any time.

Woah woah woah. Step off that ledge my friend.
I think you're talking about Ronaldo, sandnigger.
People who sit on their armchair and just look at how many goals he scored. Messi is literally Maradona, but scores more.

Well, Messi's era has been dominated by Germany and Spain. They have remarkable national teams (the best spanish generation ever).

not exactly his fault that Higuain is a choker bitch

You can't class one tournament win as domination. They were chokers in every competition before 2014.
>>64772983
>spain
it's been Germany knocking them out. every single time. 2006,2010,2014
>>64772983
Argentina's current generation is better than Germany's. If Agüero and Di Maria were fit for the final surely they'd have won it.
>>64772997
So he has 1 trophy for Argentina at a U-21 level. There's no doubt Messi is GOAT but its clear he doesn't perform as well for country as he does for club. Which is probably due to the system Argentina uses

Our best midfielder has to be literally Messi by obligation because anyone else is barely even redeemable at an elite level.

there is more to football than attacking....o wait, look at that flag
>>64773142
over the past 5 years, no NT of relevance has scored more goals than Germany
Germany's attack is and always has been better than Argentina's

Now I know you just watch le big matches and buy every meme coaches do on a whim. Is Pepe a Left Mid too just because Mourinho used him there against Barca in 2011?
>Mascherano
>even close to elite at this point
He fluked a 2007-level run at the WC -with a team literally made so that he could perform better- and the fact that we got to the final while we were barely scraping by mere matches before that when Masche was playing like shit is proof enough that we don't have any midfielders: even a 1-dimensional DM doing his 1-dimensional job well could be enough, but we don't even have that.
>carries arg to WC final

>>64773167
Di Maria played his best football ever for Madrid when Ancelotti played him at CM along with Modric. He was amazing that season. Better than he ever performed on the wing, mostly because he was much more consistent.
>>64773164
if Reus and Khedira had been fit, we'd have won the game in normal time
and beaten you 24-0
>>64773164
>Germany have the quality, but are a bunch of proven chokers
>Argentina with a working-class team who worked their asses off to get to that point
This is a pretty clear cut matter. Did Greece have the best players at 2004?
We have a lot of great strikers and the best forward depth out of any NT, but that's not enough in modern midfield-dominated football. Thing is, we still could have a better team in terms of names and system than we currently have, but even that wouldn't be world class. It would just be serviceable enough to let Messi, Aguero and co. do their job, like the '86 team was serviceable enough to let Maradona GOAT it up and Burru+Valdano contribute with whatever they could
>>64772494
>using this /tv/ meme on spee
>>64773219
di maría is a winger, where he has played 90% of his career and where he plays with his national team
>>64772494
TSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
HOL UP SO YOU FINNA TRYNA TELL ME THIS IS SOME SORT OF SHITPOSTING THRED?
>>64773161
not in players, in play absolutely, but it takes a strong midfield and defense to built up a successful attack. messi, dimaria, aguero, higuain, individualy no german player is better than any.
>>64773354
I'd take Muller before Higuaín and probably not-peak DiMa (which is more often than not) .
Neuer > Romero
Lahm > Zabaleta
Hummels > Demichelis
Boateng > Garay
Howedes > Rojo
Kramer < Mascherano
Schweini > Biglia
Kroos > Perez
Muller > Lavezzi
Ozil < Messi
Klose > Higuain (on World Cup form)
Why exactly are people claiming that Argentina had a better team? Especially considering the fact that 6 of their starting players were used to playing together at Bayern
>>64773403
>Schweini
Stop this shit
>>64773403
Ozil was better for Germany in 2010 than Messi ever was for Argentina
>>64773354
literally this flag, this topic: the post
Müller is better than any Argie player except Messi
>Ronaldo socres 5 against Granada
>literally who Granada, penaldo shit
>Messi scores 3 against Granada
>THE GOAT GUYZ
>>64773581
Maybe because Messi does so much more than score and would still be a fantastic player if he never scored?
>>64773619
I don't think this phenomenon has to do with general skills completely, I'm one of those who think that each one has his own strong points as opposed t the other.
But I'm trying to reflect the generalised bandwagonning when comparing the same or a similar performance by the 2.
>>64773581
>>Ronaldo socres 5 against Granada

>>64773667
>I'm one of those who think that each one has his own strong points as opposed t the other.
What exactly is Ronaldo better at? I can only think of heading, penalty taking and about equal in overall scoring. Dribbling, vision, short range passing, long range passing, crossing, creativity, set pieces, even defending - all Messi
>>64773709
>>4 of them were via Penalty and 1 was a tap in
You sure?

Germany also had lots of injured first team players like Reus and Gundogan. They just had a much larger pool to extract talent from, which is why they won the WC
>>64772807
thanks Germany
>using memes from the worst board on 4chan
This is a new low
>>64773961
The difference is like 3 key players got injured during the tournament. Di Maria and Aguero were basically ded when they made it to the WC final.
>>64773126
di maria severely underperformed at the WC after having the best season his career
every argentina game at the WC looked like this
defence wins the ball --> mascherano charges forward to the centre --> messi has to drop back that much to pick it up - and then runs the game all by himself
argentina has no midfield
>>64772494
one time at this film festival i volunteered i met this awesome Libanese girl, and she actually won the festival with her amazing movie about Beirut
And i tought Libanon is a pretty cool country, but whenever i see you post on 4chan i forget everything and have nothing but hatred for everything Lebanese
>>64773403
Because muh memes. I was astounded that Argies managed to create better chances in regular 90 mins, too bad they physically collapsed later due to second consecutive OT while having a day less of rest compared to Germans.
>>64772724
>making fun of the one and only GOAT for finding a face that works in all pictures

>>64773774
offball movement
he's so much better than Messi in that category, its also the category which is overlooked by 95% of this board claiming they know sawker which is hilarious
>>64778204
Uhh, except that's not true. Unless by off the ball movement you mean strictly "breaking the offside trap to get to a through ball".
Messi is much better at finding pockets of space to receive the ball and at dragging defenders out of position.
