And people are saying FA politics don't have a role in this

didn't maradonna publicly say argentina shouldn't return back home unless they win it?

english-language article about the situation the FA is going through

He'll be back for the 2018 WC.

Basically his greatest frustration depends on he played very well in this Copa America, so we can't even say he was a ghost as in other tournaments. He played well even the final . Yet not even now it was enough.When you get this you think it's really useless to insist ... You 'd think it if you aren't a champion , you can't think it if you are Messi.
Who fights can lose who doesn't fight has already lost.

Messi will return to the NT

This thread

Of course he will. I like the fact that he is taking a breath tho.

Should've made the decision after a few more months to give it a more Hollywood-esque feel. Guess not many people are surprised by this.

2018 WC is going to be interesting. Kommander's last WC probably, last WC for Buffon. Potentially Mesxit Messi's last WC and one last chance to silence everyone for good. But he's going to come up against the well-oiled German machine, France's young stars will be in their prime, Brazil with Nikemar and Italy will always be there or thereabouts. NT football is starting to become more interesting.

It was a statement said after a loss by penalties. It never held much water anyways. You guys just took it as an opportunity to hate on him.

Over 100k people gathered today in Buenos Aires.

Nowhere close to that. It was probably closer to 1k.

Over 100k

You are not considering the GL tax.

Carlos Tevez has backed Lionel Messi's decision to retire from Argentina duty



----------------------


really happy if he has changed his mind. Always knew that anyways.

This was equivalent of me rage quitting a fifa match and saying "I'll never play again" only to get back on it in 20 minutes.

There is no WC without the GOAT. Welcome back

Carlos Tevez (Boca Juniors): "The AFA is an absolute mess. Leo sees players breaking their backs for the shirt and sees AFA neglecting them"

Tevez: "We have to give Messi some time. It's obvious we need him. After AFA gets a bit organised, perhaps the NT can seduce him back".

This is not even like a 1/100 of the shit Argentina fans endured under Maradona's crazy coke binges and rage events.

Just facking back him and patiently wait for his obviously shattered spirits to recover.

He will be back.

Spoiler:

Thimmy are you doubting Harmonica's stats?

Martino resigned, Olympic team has only 8 players confirmed and apparently they will not participate for Olympics as there's no coach, not even XI of players and no money. Messi quitting was just tip of the iceberg.

I read that Germany used 10M for the facilities in WC14, to give best for their players. Mean time in Argentina...

bump

So it's pretty much all but officially confirmed that he's returning. His dad just posted a picture of Messi's Argentina jersey on instagram.

DAT 2 month retirement

Didn't even miss a game

MESSI

"There are lots of problems with ARG football, I don't intend to add another one. We must fix things. I prefer doing it on field."

"The truth is I thought a lot about this. Was sure I wouldn't return, but I love my country. I thank the people that wanted me back."

Only fools thought that a statement made in the heat of a defeat should be taken seriously... This was completely predictable.

Poor Messi, coming back again for more punishment and a 5th straight national team exit...

Maybe going to jail was a lesser punishment?  

As if LIONEL MESSI needs to beg for attention lol

Another post of yours which totally misses the point.
