Why do you hate Messi?

I hope Arsenal scores again... match is dying a bit...

yep, obviously Barcelona is better, but with so many injured players it's even harder. Arsenal almost had the game in hand with 1x0 and had a deadly counter-attack with 3 players versus only 2 defenders, but they missed it and right after that Messi scored the first. I don't know how you say it in english, but around here we say that "luck follows the talented ones". in the first goal it was just like that... he missed the pass, but the ball returned right into his foot hahah

Same reason I hate lots of top class players...  and messi is one of the worst... diving about, rolling around like they are dying. Messi sums up what he is about perfectly in that half, immense talent, best on the planet - but throwing himself down at the slightest thing and rolling around.  hate that.

How much La Liga do you watch? Because he is actually one of the more honest players. I hardly ever see him going to ground too easily. There are so many worse examples than Messi, (Ronaldo, Gerrard etc).

Bwahahahahahah!

We're going up!

Messi cant be the best player in the world if he is so irrelevant with Argentina, he cant even pass players from peru or bolivia, he is great, but he needs more to be the best.

Messi IS the best player in the world right now. You can't really argue that statement.
Its just that he gels so well with the Barcelona team, that it always brings out his best performance. Argentina have a great team, but the team chemistry is not that good, because Maradona is a fart of a coach.

With Barcelona the team can play as a unit, they have real team play, and team spirit.

i think messi is the best player in the world and he also plays for the best club/team in the world,

i wouldn't mind messi and rooney up front,

Wow... rooney is playing tonight.. hope it isn't too soon.. hate it if he would miss the world cup.. and Neville isn't playing! good choice! he would have been eaten alive by robben & ribery..

Capello won't be happy.
