@osman_c10 Exactly. You watch a comp of the “GOAT defensive midfielder” and there’s 0 actual defensive actions in it.

Lmao Busquets doesn’t sit on the same table as Xavi and Iniesta for starters.

[Liban @LibanLDN]

Sits on the same table as Iniesta, Xavi and Busquets.

@zanky0reference Calling a catholic athlete a zionist because he visited Israel and Gaza during a UNICEF peace tour organized by his employer in 2013 is “caring too much.”

Messi it’s been a pleasure. By far the best player ever. You’ve dragged and carried this average team over and over again. 20 years being the best in the world. Thanks for everything 🐐

A diferencia de muchos, te vas de este Mundial más grande de lo que llegaste. En un Mundial en el que ni siquiera sabíamos si ibas a estar, volviste a hacer historia

Gracias por todo Leo ❤️

You just mentioned 2 players with more World Cups than Ronaldo

[Oyiga Micheal @Nsukka_okpa]

Tonight officially proved why 1 World Cup doesn't make you the GOAT. Ferran Torres just picked up his first, meaning he has the exact same number of World Cups as Messi.

So would you say Ferran Torres is equal to Messi?

GOAT debate finally reopened 😂😂

@fatmadrista @ryuusxi64 @Sp1thfc Not really, because 11/12 Barça didn’t win the league either. The point is that in a league where the same three teams rotate 1st to 3rd, the overall quality of the league isn’t nearly as important as the quality and form of their direct rivals.

[ace. @tezsli]

@fatmadrista @ryuusxi64 @Sp1thfc 18/19 Barça wouldn’t have walked the league with an half-asleep coach in 11/12.

[ace. @tezsli]

@FutbalTangents @fukxumean Yamal isn’t the one shaping the destiny of the team.

[ace. @tezsli]

Unpopular opinion: I think 18/19 is overrated. Barça were ass but so was the rest of La Liga, and he choked against the ONLY elite team he played all season. It’s still a great carryjob, but people who rate it this highly probably didn’t watch his earlier seasons in real time.

[☔️🫧☔️ @Sp1thfc]

I prefer his 18/19 season over this

[ace. @tezsli]

@fatmadrista @ryuusxi64 @Sp1thfc RM were having a terrible season and lost 5-1 to a Messi-less Barça, and Atleti were still a worse team on paper. He was oddly bad in all away matches in the CL KOs, and lost 4-0 in the only tie Barça weren’t overwhelming favourites to win. He had more to do, but he wasn’t better

[J. 🇭🇷 @JosipFCB93]

You've learned a lot from him alright

They’re about to face off in the World Cup final, both wearing the 10.

🤯🇦🇷🇪🇸 Leo Messi pictured with Dani Olmo back in 2006…

Before Olmo even joined Barcelona, he was at a sports ground with his father who was coaching a match.

Messi arrived at the place as he reportedly watched a friend playing there too.

@almightyrori @uuMaSiya He’s also old enough to father some of them

@416Ja @AJA0044 Last time Italy played a knockout game, Messi was 19.

@tHgeorgiandude @mxdric Pelé played in 2 finals.

[ace. @tezsli]

@angelaamuro They’re coming off the back of winning 3 major titles in a row, and a semifinal here is already a good result for them. England are the ones who have been close multiple times but unable to get over the finish line. Lots of semifinal exits and final losses in recent times.
