@Folabii_ You get. He didn't even go to the world cup. Ample time to have sorted a deal before the market craziness started but we are being run by complete idiots
Seeing as we won't be signing any additional LB this window, I'm trusting Luke Shaw to get injured soon to once again prove how unserious we are as a club. 🥲🥲🥲
The Ronaldo Rulebook: Heads He Loses, Tails He Loses
Football doesn’t hate Ronaldo. It hates consistency.
Because with Ronaldo, the rules change every 5 minutes.
The "Mentality" Rule
Team wins 2-0, Ronaldo doesn’t score _"Selfish. Bad attitude. Only cares about himself."
Barça wins 5-0, Yamal cries for not scoring "Mentality monster. Elite winner. That’s the standard."
So wanting goals is toxic when it’s CR7, but leadership when it’s anyone else?
The "Body" Rule
2003: _"Too skinny. Won’t survive the PL.
He hits the gym, eats clean, becomes a Greek statue.
2025: "Why is he always flexing? Thinks he’s a model."
Bro was told to get bigger. He did. Now he’s punished for listening.
3. The "Evolution" Rule
Ronaldo starts as a skillful winger. Dribbles, assists, showtime.
Team needs goals he drops the tricks, becomes a machine. 800+ goals.
Response: _"He’s not even technical. Just a poacher. Just penalties."
Messi adds goals to his game _"GOAT evolution."
Ronaldo does it "He sold out."
You can’t ask a player to adapt for the team and then erase his old game to discredit him.
The "Penalty" Rule
Ronaldo masters penalties _"Tap-in merchant. Stat-padding.
Messi wins World Cup with 6 penalties → "Carried Argentina. Clutch gene.
Messi then misses 3 pens in a row ..let’s not talk about that."
A goal is a goal until the wrong person scores it.
This was never about football.
It’s about a kid from Madeira who was told he wasn’t good enough, got good enough, then got too good.
And now people are rewriting history to cope.
You told him to get stronger. He did.
You told him to score more. He did.
You told him to win. He did.
Now you’re mad he did everything you asked.
You can’t eat your cake and have it.
Pick a lane.
🇦🇷👉🏻Messi quedó eliminado en cuartos de final del Mundial de 2010 tras ser goleado 4-0 por Alemania. No marcó un solo gol en toda la Copa del Mundo.
Aun así, le otorgaron el Balón de Oro del Mundial argumentando sus estadísticas en la liga española.
En 2023 cambiaron el criterio: dijeron que el Mundial debía pesar más que todo lo demás y, con ese argumento, le dieron el Balón de Oro por encima de la temporada extraordinaria de Haaland.
Ahora quieren repetir la historia. Con apenas 12 goles en la MLS, ya impulsan su candidatura argumentando que hizo un gran Mundial.
Los criterios cambian según convenga a Messi. Ahí están los casos de Lewandowski, Haaland, Van Dijk, Sneijder y Mbappé, como ejemplos de futbolistas que, se han visto afectados por la dictadura de Messi.
Bonus: En 2014 también recibió el Balón de Oro del Mundial pese a no marcar un solo gol en las fases de eliminación directa. Thomas Müller hizo 5 goles, incluido uno en semifinales, además de una asistencia. James Rodríguez terminó como máximo goleador con 6 tantos y, para muchísima gente, fue el mejor jugador del torneo.
Insisto: Messi es el futbolista más beneficiado de la historia. Y ese estigma lo cargará el resto de su vida, aunque a muchos les duela.
