The problem with modern music, the idea of a band is lost, except Arctic Monkeys, there's not one band which actually has different people playing different instruments, now it's a bunch of teenagers more interested in fashion than in music holding guitars for show.

@nitin_2002_ @ShantayanB60013 @Rup4kC @StopThatXavii That was the 21/22 season, he got 41 G/A for PSG in 41 matches in 22/23 when Messi won the Ballon D’Or

لم يطالبوا بركلة جزاء إلا عندما سجلت الأرجنتين 😂

@AkashParui @AbijitG I was perfectly respectful and reasonable in my reply, if you find the need to be passive aggressive, good for you. If you think Salah’s is a foul, that’s your opinion, I disagree.

[Srikar @psrikar97]

@AkashParui @AbijitG VAR check happens after every goal, the ref is only called to the screen if there’s an obvious error that he needs to correct.

[Srikar @psrikar97]

@generallyossify @alearcticwolff @joonlee So you’re saying, if a player commits a foul, skips past one player and makes a pass, that foul should be ignored?

[Srikar @psrikar97]

@barca_yash @FnRosie25200 @maxstephhh He won it when he went trophyless and he won it when he was grouped.

I am grateful we live in a world where what Peter Crouch said about Messi vs Ronaldo is the norm because I was very tired of the alternative

[Srikar @psrikar97]

Massive massive kudos to Cabo Verde! Pushed Argentina to the brink. That being said if Argentina plays the way they did, they’ll not get very far, looked completely out of ideas against a staunch defence.

Boiling Messi’s retirement down to “depression” fails to acknowledge the landscape of Argentine football at that time.

If you’re familiar with it, you know the relationship between the Argentine media/public and Messi was tumultuous.
The media made a circus of whatever Maradona said, since his word was like that of God for Argentines.
On top of that, AFA was an organizational disaster.
Reports stated that Messi personally paid the national team’s security staff, who hadn’t been paid in months.

The team had reached back to back World Cup and Copa América finals and lost both.
Throughout this period, Maradona repeatedly criticized Messi’s character, leadership, and pride for the national team.
The media amplified it.
Messi never responded and carried on.
Then he took Argentina to yet ANOTHER consecutive final.
Maradona added pressure with a strong statement:
“If you lose, DON’T COME BACK.”

They lost.
Messi retired.
The manager resigned due to issues with AFA.
Other players evaluated their futures with the national team.
FIFA stepped in to prevent AFA’s collapse.

A retirement that brought the nation to its knees.
Argentines took to the streets in protest.
#NoTeVayasLio trended globally.
People of all ages wrote him letters asking for forgiveness and urging him to return, including a young Enzo Fernandez.
The President of Argentina urged him to come back.
The Mayor of Buenos Aires unveiled a statue of him in gratitude.
Maradona begged him to return.

Leo came back in 2017 when Argentina were on the brink of missing out on the 2018 World Cup: he scored a hat trick against Ecuador and guaranteed their qualification.

His retirement sparked a revolution within AFA and paved the way for Scaloni to take over in 2018, changing Argentina’s fortunes.

So no, the retirement wasn’t as simple as him just being sad about losing a final.

This article is not written if 🇩🇪🇳🇱 win in penalties.

Instead, they'd talk about nerves of steel and composure.

@NnaFrancis80594 @FCBarcelona He fucked his own career up, when his first injury happened he was advised by the club to get surgery, his own advisers asked him to do cautious rehab instead, after that he could never recover his level

[Srikar @psrikar97]

@NSL_M10 @FootbalGalaxy @thedoctor00_ Anyway, the point was Maradona was so poor as a coach, he played 2 strikers, 2 wingers and a midfield of Messi and Mascherano.

[Srikar @psrikar97]

@NSL_M10 @FootbalGalaxy @thedoctor00_ Tevez was out of form but Torres who was immediately sold by Liverpool because his knee was gone wasn’t? He was out for almost the entire second half of the season in the lead up to the WC

[Srikar @psrikar97]

@FootbalGalaxy @NSL_M10 @thedoctor00_ Also Mata made one sub appearance in the 2010 WC

@NSL_M10 @FootbalGalaxy @thedoctor00_ Milito, Pastore

@NSL_M10 @FootbalGalaxy @thedoctor00_ Messi, di Maria, Higuain, Aguero, Tevez
