Re: 'The Messiah' - Lionel Messi V.2
We need a new board.
I am almost certain things would completely start to go positive for everyone involved if we got Bart and company out. *bleep*, I mean we NEVER for Bart to be president in the first place, he is only there because Rossell had to resign for being a rat. That alone should of been enough to warrant a new voting to start for a new president

I dont blame them for considering it, honestly.

Well, it wouldn't be a complete tragedy as this isn't 2011 anymore for sure and a frontline consisting of let's say Nerman-Suarez-Reus would be as elite as it gets as long as the rest of the team also gets fixed. But even though Messi has lost some of his edge he will still produce 35 - 40 goals and 20+ assists in a season and would strengthen all the teams that are able to actually afford him considerably. Imagine him going to Chelsea. Messi instead of Oscar playing off Costa or instead of Costa or instead of Ramires or Schürrle or whoever is playing right wing, depending on the specific game, is a major improvement. If the "strengthening European rivals" component wouldn't be there maybe one could think about it.

City, PSG and Chelsea can't due to FFP. And if they did, would have to unload like a good chunk of players to make it work. Plus all 3 of those clubs already have top strikers so he isn't needed.
Inter...with what money?! LMAO. No way they cough up 200+ million out of nowhere

we don't spend more than 30 mln for a single player since 2000 with Vieri and we were a rich club years ago..
I am surprised sometimes about the fantasy of journalists...
The only foreign club where I can see Messi a day is the PSG, but it won't happen though. Basically I think he will play forever with Barca and when his career will be going to finish he will come back to Newell's Old Boys

Something similar to Torres' loan perhaps. A 5 year loan maybe

Re: 'The Messiah' - Lionel Messi V.2
For a player who has a magic wand as a left foot,his right foot is not so shabby either.Some sublime finishes this year with his right.He can even pass well with his right.The only thing he cant do with his right is dribble.
I have been his biggest critic on this forum but barring a couple of games,I have been extremely impressed with him this season.Main difference has been the effort and movement in offense.No longer static and attacks the box.The third goal against Espanyol a perfect example.The goals were bound to come and they have started coming.Even defends as well as can be reasonably expected.I think he is playing as well as I have ever seen him play in a few games this season.
CR may score as many goals as he wants but when Messi plays like this,he is just light years ahead.Cant believe there are actually people who consider CR to be better.

Actually CR never been better. He just scored more goals. And it was a surprise because Messi dominated scoring tables since 2008 (at the same time being truly best player). People mistaked it. They think if you score more you are better

Lionel Messi has scored his last 9 goals for Barcelona from 12 shots on target #fcblive [via opta]
don't even get me started on the amount of times he's hit the post.

Re: 'The Messiah' - Lionel Messi V.2
He does not have that sharpness, neither have that speed anymore. Look at his second goal in last game. that speed, that agression are simply missing these days. It is one of the most beautiful movement from him. we still see him scoring the goals like the first one, where defenders are flooded around him and he finds the slightest sppace to score.

Re: 'The Messiah' - Lionel Messi V.2
Marca wrote:Barcelona left two points behind in Getafe. It was one more day when Leo Messi was not very influential. The extent to which Barcelona have depended on Messi this season is massive.
In recent years, the Barcelona boat has been navigated mainly by Messi's performances, though not to the extent that it has been this season. Either Leo is decisive, or Barcelona botch it all up.
The figures speak for themselves. Barcelona have dropped points in four games this season: at Málaga and Real Madrid, against Celta and now in Getafe, and Messi was not at his best in any of them, the problem being that there was no one who could take over from him.
In those four matches, his teammates were able to produce one solitary goal, by Neymar at the Bernabéu. As for the rest, there was nothing.
And in addition to the four games already mentioned, Barcelona also lost in Paris, where Messi did score a goal but it wasn't enough, and there was a clear victory in a cup match against Huesca in which he didn't play. In the 16 other games played this season, Barcelona have come out on top, and in nearly all of these, Messi had a part to play. In 14 of them he either scored himself or provided an assist, and in 13 of them he actually got the score off the mark, either with a goal or an assist.

Thank god
Tbf I think Alex is the only one who wanted him sold for good. Had that happened we'd be near regulation

Re: 'The Messiah' - Lionel Messi V.2
Lionel Messi feeling mental, physical strain of years at top - Gerardo Martino
Argentina coach Gerardo Martino has suggested that Lionel Messi is currently dealing with the mental and physical results of having been the focal point in so many games over the last decade for club and country.
Messi, 27, has already played over 500 senior club and international matches since making his Barcelona debut in October 2004 -- winning every trophy available with the Camp Nou club, and playing in three World Cups with Argentina.
The four-time Ballon d'Or winner was troubled by persistent muscle problems throughout the 2013-14 season, but has been fit enough to start all his club's La Liga and Champions League games so far this term.
Messi has scored 21 times in those 21 outings, but high-profile teammates including summer signing Luis Suarez have not been delivering nearly as often, and Barca have slipped four points behind leaders Real Madrid in the La Liga table.
Messi's current international manager, and his club coach during the 2013-14 campaign, said in an interview with the DPA news agency that the psychological strain of being always looked to by teammates to decide games was huge.
"A very important thing is the 'wear and tear' he has had for 10 years, averaging 60 or 65 games per year," Martino said. "He plays a lot of decisive games which wear you out physically and psychologically. He has an extra load that no other player has. Everyone is waiting on him to resolve games, something that is very hard to change. We coaches must try to find ways of playing so that he is the most important part of the team, but not the saviour."
Martino said that although Messi is surrounded by so many big stars at Barcelona, including World Cup-winners such as Xavi Hernandez and Andres Iniesta, and Brazilian starlet Neymar, his teammates still expect him to deliver all the time.
"I believe there is more expectation on the part of his teammates at Barcelona than those of the national team," he said. "I always said that at Barcelona it was better due to the teammates he had. The reality is that also at Barcelona everyone ends up waiting for him to decide many things. The situation is not that different than the national team."
Martino tried to play Messi in a number of different positions during their time together at club level, and since taking over as Argentina boss last summer has often started his No. 10 out towards the right wing. Current Blaugrana coach Luis Enrique has also tried something similar, with former Liverpool attacker Suarez currently positioned at centre-forward.
In the end Messi tended to play where he himself felt he could do most damage, Martino said.
"He is unpredictable as a player," he said. "It is very difficult to establish what we will find. You can think that with time he will play a bit deeper, without so much explosive impact, and he has done that. Or you could imagine him out on the wing, with more chances to take on opponents one against one. And he has done that too.
"Everything that happens around Lionel happens solely and exclusively for how he is feeling himself."
