>scores 500th goal
>gets outshined by losing at home again
>>66907385
Hes a joke , and so is nerman and overbite suarez
They're about to lose it all to Madrid
Messi always fucks up when he has to score meaningful goals. Like when he scored his first ever goal after Thiago was born, he was so eager to score that the pressure got to him. He scored a useless goal in the 90th minute of the 2-1 loss to Celtic
Messi played a great game and got fucked by Alba's inability to pass/cross
>mfw his 500th goal was meaningless
>>66907385
He had a good game. All of his teammates bar Mascherano have turned to shit.
>>66907484
>They're about to lose it all to Madrid
to both of the madrids
>>66907503
how is a first goal after your child is born something meaningful?
today i'm going to have my first ice cream after i paid off my car, since we're making arbitrary important markers
>>66907552
>Messi played a great game
Americunts talking as if they knew about Barça
>>66907565
How is it not? It was the first goal Messi would ever score where he could do the thumb biting celebration, and just overall a significant goal for him to dedicate to his son
>>66907553
it wouldn't have been if they had scored the second one ;)
>>66907552
>his goal came from a cross from Alba
>>66907565
It was considered significant because becoming a dad for the first time was affecting his form.
>>66907709
So? Watch the game. He played one decent pass when he had at least 5 perfect opportunities to do so. Most of them after Messi's through balls
>>66907577
But he did.
>>66907728
i think it is more about the panama thing
>>66907385
Seriously, whats with Barcelona recently? Whats gotten them so fucking bad that they've forgot how to score?
HAUNTED BY THE GHOST OF GARY NEVILLE!
>>66907787
The scoreline would seem to indicate otherwise
>>66907484
he played really well today, suarez and neymar were awful though
>all these offsides
>neymar never passing the ball and playing like he is still in santos
>>66907913
>implying losing means HE didn't play well
>>66907913
>you can't play a good game in a losing team
>american ""opinions"" on """soccer"""
Feels very similar to the 13/14 period where Messi is the only forward that looks like he can do something.
Suarez has turned donkey. Neymar's flicks and tricks aren't coming off. Iniesta is finished.
>>66907997
>don't show up when it matters most
>played a good game
>Polish americans "opinions" on "anything"
messi is the only father in professional sports. what a burden to carry! what excuse is there other than they thought they had everything won before it was over. happens a lot in SPORTZ
>>66908034
we definitely need xavi back
>we
>>66908034
>Iniesta is finished.
He wasn't as good as he usually is, but he was decent. Rakitic was fucking atrocious and has been for the past 2-3 games.
he deserves a better team to be honest
>>66907973
>literally a tap in
>Really really well
>>66908119
you gotta be kidding
>>66907552
>It's always someone else's fault
Messi is superman and superman can fly,shoot lasers,lift up cars and a bunch of other shit so when the justice league is in trouble superman does not turn to fucking aqua man for help
Lads Messi didn't actually do bad today, he played well. If you watched the game he was creating chances, picking out good passes but no one bloody finished them. His finishing was a bit shit too but other than that he was good
>>66908054
>>don't show up when it matters most
What the fuck does that even mean? He scored and he was the only one who was creating danger with his passing
>>66908139
>ignoring his beautiful pass to Alba in the build up
retard
>>66907385
>manlets
Just business as usual la
>>66908167
>>It's always someone else's fault
I think you quoted the wrong post because I've never said that
>>66908054
>create 3 direct clear cut chances (Nerman blatant 1-on-1, Suarez, Alba)
>score a goal
>open up opponent bunch of times with his diagonal balls
>"didn't show up"
Believe it or not, in this sport a particular individual can have a good game even when his team lost.
>>66908115
Nah Iniesta is done. The signs have been there for almost two years. He's struggling to make simple passes.
It's ironic though and almost unfair that now, on the wrong side of 30, he's being asked to cover more ground during games than he's ever had to before.
They need to invest big in the midfield. Arda was a mistake. Rakitic is a good player, but not great. Busquets is fantastic at what he does but he's not creative.
>>66908274
Believe it or not, you didn't play a good a game as you thought if your team lost 2-1 at home to a bunch of fucking scrubs
Munir is THE player
>>66908139
>i didn't watch the game except for a goal webm
>>66908464
>you didn't play a good a game as you thought if your team lost 2-1
Yes, obviously your team didn't play a good game if they lost. Doesn't mean particular individual displays weren't good.
>>66908384
I'd still keep him over Rakitic and buy someone younger for the mid. Keep his workrate down and he can still be brilliant.
Who does Barcelona need to buy? Verrati for mid and laporte for defense?
>>66908607
>laporte
>good
I take it that you haven't seen a lot of Bilbao games this season
>>66908274
>madrid plays like shit
>PENALDO!!!!!! TAP IN BABBY!!!!!! XDDD E X P O S E D
>barca play like shit
>I-IT'S NOT HIS FAULT H-HIS TEAM IS IN BAD FORM
>>66908665
No, but who then? Cause the defense is fucking shit too with how much space they just give up in the center.
>>66908759
The defence is fine, both goals were a result of playing Sergi Roberto at RB. They just need a reliable back up at CB and maybe a replacement for Alba
>>66908732
messi's worst games are more impressive than a penaldo hat trick
>>66907858
sTARTED AFTER pANAMA pAPERS
tAKE A GUESS WHY
>>66908732
Messi played a really good game. Deal with it.
>>66908819
That Griezmann header was a freebie. So was Ronaldos goal in the el clasico. Barcas defense falls apart too quickly. How many chances did Valencia miss today that were fucking gifted to them.
>>66908823
oh man
this post is so fucking cringeworthy
fucking classical, ignorant and blind american bandwagoning
so much cringe it hurts
>>66908732
Ronaldo doesn't contribute to the team. He'll score goals if you can make them for him, but besides that, he's usually useless.
Messi adapts to what the team needs. With Suarez and Neymar up front, he can fall back and create chances. Too bad those 2 fucks have forgotten how to finish.
>>66908999
>Ronaldo doesn't contribute to the team
>He'll score goals
>>66908938
They've been bad recently but so has been the entire team.
And Valencia barely created anything other than the goals and their chances to make it 1-3 all came when Pique was thrown forward and Barcelona were playing with 1 defender. You can't expect a defence not to concede chances when you throw everything forward.
>>66908999
this.
TSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
>>66908999
nuke india when?
>>66908999
>scoring goals doesn't contribute to the team
>>66908274
>>66908823
>>66908895
>>66908999
Hahaha fucking kill yourselves.
>>66907678
But they didn't fag. To be fair it should end 2-3.
>>66909036
So Messi stops scoring and instead tries to assist two other players that cant score goal
>nice adaptation
>nice contribution
>Cristiano scores goals and is shit
>>66909036
>>66909183
>score goals
>when you can create them for him
>otherwise he'll just cry, dive and maybe steal chances from his teammates
>>66908607
Verratti plays similarly to Busquets. They need someone that's more creative and a natural ball carrier.
Pogba and Gundogan seem like obvious targets.
>>66909241
No body called Ronaldo shit. He's just not comparable to Messi in any way whatsoever.
>>66908999
Nice education you got there in Paki land
>>66908732
Why bring up Ronaldo?
Hope you're trolling because you're really living up to your flag if you think Messi can't have a good game when Barca lose.
>>66909292
Can Barcelona afford them with their financial issues and whatnot?
>/brit/s posting in detail about spic football
disgusting.
>>66908384
i love this post because 3 months ago everyone on /sp/ was saying the complete polar oppsotie of this
"what a team from top to bottom, everyone is fucking amazing"
>3 months later
"everyone is shit, they need to invest heavily, front 3 are chokers."
>>66908999
He is literally second in assists so far this season
>>66909385
The brilliance of the front 3 was washing over the inadequacies of the others and making their goods appear great. Its all more obvious now.
/sp/ obviously exaggerates everything.
>>66909346
>Why bring up Ronaldo?
Look at his flag, ffs.
ISCO PA LA JUVE
more fun stuff to think about lads:
they're paying all of their starters massive salaries and might have to offload one of their better players if they want to sign anyone in the summer.
they were afraid to sign nolito from celta because it was all getting too expensive for them.
neymar wants a new contract soon and that could get expensive. busquets is negotiating for a massive salary raise and flirted with city recently.
>>66909377
Almost as disgusting as your pasty, flabby body.
>>66909185
Nice rebuttal. :)
Look m8, since you brought Ronaldo yourself it's fairly obvious the guy is prolific goalscorer and when he's not scoring there's not much to say about his game. Messi on the other hand has great range and passing vision to influence the game even when he's not contributing in terms of scoring.
>> 66909449
ironic how it's coming from a fat american twat.
>>66909459
> >>66909416
>>66909377
so? this is currently the most interesting title race in all of the top leagues right now
a month ago it looked over but game fucking on. any neutrals who like the sport should be at least follow this a little bit.
lads serious question: what does this guy offer to the team?
it's happening again, when barca doesn't have a plan b and just sideways pass until they get countered.
>>66909468
You are fucking 250+. I am 6'01" at 200lbs so please, don't try to compare us fatass.

yeah, because a two horse race and a meme team is always interesting.

Do you even look at your post before pressing send?
>>66909459
Nice use of statistics m8 :^)
Assists:
Ronaldo = 11
Messi = 10
How can you messifags completely ignore facts like this to justify your little autistic idol. Now go get raped by Serbs.
>>66909743
yes, his post was premeditated
it was genius, artistic. you just don't understand the gravity of what he has just posted here but its one of the best posts of the year.
>>66909527
>assisted in only two games this season in which he didn't score
SoI'm right: if he didn't score, chances are he didn't do much in a match. :)
papeles de panama
contigo empezó todo
>>66909935
That chart literally implies otherwise
>>66909986
please god let barcelona choke away this league and please god let arbeloa say that at the end of the season
>>66909385
No most were saying that the front three are incredible.
Almost everyone knows that this Barca team, with their current midfield, aren't a patch on Barca '11.
>>66909758
I didn't even mention any stat in the post you quoted m9 :^)
>Ronaldo = 11
>Messi = 10
Don't let Ronaldo's stacking of assists in already decided games fool you into thinking he have comparable skillsets to Messi. :^)
>>66910445
You have literally devoted your life to worshiping a millionaire athlete from a foreign country, who plays for a foreign club and who will never give a single fuck about you.

I dont have a horse in this race, Im just pointing out how pathetic you are. You got so triggered by fags on 4chan trolling about your favourite autist that you went and acquired actual spreadsheets of data to prove them wrong.
>>66910866
>75% of Ronaldo's goals+assists came when his team have 1+ goal lead
>0% when his team is losing
How much do you regret bringing Ronaldo into this thread now m9? ;^)
>>66911068
>people on internet sports board discuss sports issues
Gee, how pathetic they must be :^)
>>66911116
Btw that spreadsheet reads barcafacts... Could it maybe, just maybe be biased?
>>66907666
>where he could do the thumb biting celebration
Nobody should ever do that, period.
>>66911204
The only one with issues here is you.
>>66911315
They get their statistical data from OPTA as most of football sites (WhoScored, FourFourTwo, Squawka etc). You can always double check numbers if you believe they were biased when counting goals and assists :^)
>>66911363
Whatever you say m9
>>66908271
You were implying it m8
>>66907552
>Messi
>great
When you faggots realize he will never be Peter Crouch....
It's tiresome to carry 10 players, a coach and an entire club. He'll go full autist the next few games. Messifags will emerge, Ronaldofags will dissappear and neutralfags will remain the same, hailing the GOAT.
