Spot on.People making excuses about this team not be great,hahaha.This team was hell of a lot more talented than the Maradona's world cup team.
And yes mind was made up he will never be the greatest with no world cups,which is the pinnacle of football.It's funny how some people say Pele never left Brazil(he was not allowed to,he is a national treasure)yet everything Messi did was in one league with one team.
I said it before I will say it again,he is a choker along with his teammates,third final running.Now he goes and quit,while his team is struggling to qualify for the world cup.Yup what a great. |
I really don't understand you guys, to win an international Cup, you have to have a TEAM. Messi ended Copa America with 5 goals, 4 assists and a lot of great performances.
Chile is a way better team than Argentina. You got it? A team, a block that defends and attacks as a single unit, pressures the opponent away from their box and can play comfortably off-ball. Team is not about single units but the whole. That's what this Argentina team doesn't have the heart to do.
Di Maria was absent, Higuain was as thriftless as Aguero in front of goal, the midfield was locked by Chile because they had 3 defensive midfielders and who had to come from the wing to the middle to coordinate the attacking efforts? Messi.
Learn the definition of choke, Messi was fouled almost everytime he lead the attack, he assisted with his freeckiks and got players conditioned with cards they were receiving for stopping him with fouls. He didn't dissapear from the game, Chile is not a fussball team.
