Zatman Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 4 matches is minimum he should get. Some players think they can get away with anything on the pitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 I don't know if its been mentioned but none of the 4 match officials heard Mess's rant. Argentina are appealing it anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Neymar got a 3 match ban from Copa America 2015 for bad language I think. Medel is the Chile player who got banned aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lupinthe5th Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 (edited) One game on Sunday doesn't define Lionel Messi's status. For me he's already The Greatest Player Ever.

mikeyp102 Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 It’s not even close between him and Ronaldo. Ronaldo great goal scorer, Messi the greatest. Assists, goals, dribbles, passing. He is it all. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Thug Posted December 14, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 14, 2022 If Morocco beat france.. I’ll be rooting for morocco - that’s something way bigger than messi for me. if france win, I hope Emi saves 6 penalties and Messi scores a hat-trick and Argentina win 6-0 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Messi is wired differently. What he does and what he is with a football is just poetry. That low centre of gravity. The way he manipulates the ball. His finishing. His dribbling. His passing. I could go on. I find him mesmerising. Is the best player ever? I don’t know, I’ve not watched the likes of Pele, Maradona etc. but without a doubt, he’s the best player I’ve ever seen play football. I’ll be surprised if I ever see anybody better. I struggle to put into words just how good he is (as I’m sure others do too). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sne Posted December 14, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 14, 2022 Not good enough at defensive corners for me, lacks stature. Also never played in England so hard to say if he's actually any good. Feels like the typical fancy foreign name flavor of the month WC fawning. Doubt he could even chug a pint in 3 seconds and he celebrates his goals in the wrong way. Also the Falklands. 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assists, goals, dribbles, passing. He is it all. The fact that he can run games at 35 is extraordinary. Ronaldo has reverted to a box striker since his late 20's just in order to keep up with him. In my head it has never been a debate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
