Added national team for more complete view.
Messi dribbled 243 players to score 458 goals, or 0,53 players per goal.
Maradona dribbled 50 players to score 195 goals, or 0,26 players per goal.
Shocking difference.

I agree, the question should be why does Messi continually flop for Argentina?

He was selected MVP, there's nothing more a player can do, than to be the best player of tournament. Game against Chile wasn't bad, he created the best chance of the game and scored the most important penalty in SO.ahmad25 wrote:Messi played good. he had one bad game and it was against Chile

Against Chile he was walking and made me angry sometimes. I mean even his fanboys became upset. But probably he was very tired.long season and again he had to play games every 3 dayHarmonica wrote:He was selected MVP, there's nothing more a player can do, than to be the best player of tournament.

Amazing how Higuain got so much criticism for his WC final miss while Messi's has been swept under the rug. El Pibe de Oro wouldn't have bottled it.

Messi didn't flop at CA. He set up an open net for Higgy in the 90th min at 0-0 and perfectly executed his penal in the penalty shoot out. I feel like there's being asked too much of Messi.

Scoring a one on one goal against Neuer like he does week in week in week out at Barcelona is not too much too ask. I agree though that he is no Maradona so people can't expect him to carry the NT when he doesn't have the ball all the time.

Re: The Lionel Messi Appreciation Thread & Fan Club II
Three of Higuain's big chance's in finals stemmed from Messi, in WC-final distributed the ball for Lavezzi, pressured German players to mistake, and dribbled 2 players from midfield in CA-final.Gil wrote:Amazing how Higuain got so much criticism for his WC final miss while Messi's has been swept under the rug.

Higuain is one of the biggest chokers of our time. In span of one year:
Failed 1on1 against Dnpro which would have put Napoli in road to CL from EL, and penalty against Lazio which would put Napoli to CL from Serie-A.
And that's the exact reason why Real Madrid got rid of him, he's not confident enough to play at that level.

Re: The Lionel Messi Appreciation Thread & Fan Club II
ok flopping in 1 game is called ultimate NT choker in your book. he still created best chance of the game while choking. Keep in mind that flopping Messi is still top 10 player in the worldjibers wrote:ahmad25 wrote:Messi played good. he had one bad game and it was against Chile

Re: The Lionel Messi Appreciation Thread & Fan Club II
Walking has nothing to do with quality, Messi was Argentina's best player by clear margin in the final. http://www.whoscored.com/Matches/971932/LiveStatistics/International-Copa-America-2015-Chile-Argentinaahmad25 wrote:Against Chile he was walking and made me angry sometimes.
