@deadrevil7 @Footballtweet That guy is very stupid 🤦

[Chikobello @_Chiquito007]

Oh my days😭😭

[Bruno @tylerdurdenslb]

A comparação com o Pelé e Maradona não é assim tão descabida… atualmente, o CR7 também parece 1 morto a jogar futebol.

"Thank you for loving me" the little boy from Rosario said as he took his final bow.

No, Leo. We thank you.

You were the joy of our teenage and adulthood - because across civilizations, political enclaves and nationalities, we might not speak the same language but we all spoke Messi.

You made magicians quiver because the swiftness of your feet made the firmaments stop.

You made sorcerers question the potency of their charms because of the precision by which your strikes split the wind.

You made giants look mortal & levelled them.

You made defenders forget their names - left them with cracked ankles.

You made goalkeepers stare into the emptiness of their nets - wondering what had just passed them by.

And somehow, Leo, you did it all with a rolling leather at your feet, a smile that made the impossible look ordinary & strides that mirrored the silhouettes of gods. My Leo.

Oh my Leo, I type this with tears bubbling in my eyes.

We watched you grow. We watched you become a man carrying the weight a club & eventually an entire generation upon shoulders that never seemed built for such burdens.

We watched you stumble. We watched you lose.
We watched you walk away and we watched you come back.

That's what makes you the Greatest Of All Times because greater than the goals, greater than the trophies, greater even than the records - You reminded us that greatness is not the absence of failure.

That sometimes the smallest amongst us can cast the longest shadow.

I wasn't born in the civilization that cracked industrialization, I wasn't born in the civilization that made coffins fly in the sky but how lucky I am to be born in the civilization whom you found worthy to voyage through with your gift, My Leo.

We will tell our children about you, about that night in Mexico - with the World Cup clenched in your palms.

We will tell them about the night your fathered orphans in Madrid. We will tell them about the careers you ended in Camp Nou.

No, don't thank us, Leo.

We thank you. For the memories, the magic, the joy, the friendships you fostered across the globe, your love for the game and for making us believe.

Rest now, Leo.

We don't know what football would look like moving forward - Stadiums will eventually go dark in silence, boots will hang in museums, numbers will get passed, records might get broken.

It doesn't matter. You were the man, the myth, the god, the game.

And when we all lay crumpled one day, old in our dying beds and someone asks us what being football looked like being young -

We shall all chant:

Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾 Messsi. 🙌🏾

This is why I was against the character assassination of Messi during the World cup. Digital footprint will make the propaganda have an impact.

12 midnight no calls or texts please, Messi and I will be crying together

If I ever become President, before I introduce any policy - I have a long list of death penalties to become law first.

Sexual assault on children = death
Murder = death
Embezzlement=death
Kidnapping=death
Terrorism=death
Incest=death
False rape accusers & rapists = death.

Argentina players: So Coach what do we do in the second half?

Scaloni in the dressing room:

[Just in. @wydsajoh_]

loving me isn’t enough, you gotta love Dr. lionel andres messi too.

[Barça Pictures #14 @Barca__pictures]

- “ made a mistake by putting someone of the stature of Pelé or Maradona on to warm up”
- “I do not want him a little, I want him a lot.”
- “He is the player who gives the most autographs, takes the most selfies”

I’M IN TEARS YALL

Serious help

[Miguel Lourenço Pereira @TheRealMiguelLP]

«Errei ao colocar alguém da dimensão de Pelé ou Maradona a aquecer para depois não o colocar em jogo. Se fosse hoje não o faria.»

Qualquer individuo que pense isto e exija a um seleccionador dizer isto em publico, não só não deve jogar na seleção como precisa de ajuda.

Lionel Messi.

You turned football to Art. Made us love the sport even more. Words can't describe the immense joy i feel whenever i watch you play.

You've given your all, and won it all.

What more can I say, than Thank You
