Cicero Posted March 18, 2019 Posted March 18, 2019 Lord only knows why there is another Copa America next summer, but Messi now has two chances to win something with the national side. Returns to international duty this week after his absence.

Anyway, that third goal was immense last night, I love a goal like that and my favourite Messi goal of alltime is still the chip he scored against Mexico in Copa America 2007.

Carnivore Chris Posted March 19, 2019 Posted March 19, 2019 Piers Morgan: "Messi scored one of the greatest hatricks ever seen at the weekend" It was obviously a great hat-trick, but pretty much standard for Messi when he scores hat-tricks. It's certainly nothing out of the ordinary to see Messi score a hat-trick with all 3 goals being brilliant. 10 hours ago, True Blue said: Lampard has done it ages ago bUt MeSsi MesSi Is NoT oUt oF tHiS wOrLd Lampard was immense to be honest. About 10 years ago I used to claim he was overrated and I always preferred Gerrard, but looking back now that both have retired, I would say that Lampard was the better player of the 2. He had a little bit of everything in his locker.

Due to my disliking for Chelsea back then(it's died now I'd say, I have nothing against them anymore) I was often blind to how brilliant both Lampard and Terry were. 2 of the best the Premier league has seen in their respective positions. Obviously on a European level they were class as well and among the best of their generation.

Terry and Lampard were as good as any spine in world football.

I mean, I used to fucking despise Cantona when he played, but then you look back when he retired and realise just how talented he was. In fact, speaking of him, this was classy as fuck:-

Cicero Posted May 1, 2019 Posted May 1, 2019 With these types of performances, he might just make top 10 in the Balon d’Or this season

Dr. Gonzo Posted May 7, 2019 Posted May 7, 2019 It's mental people are pinning Barca being knocked out of the CL on Messi. Without Messi they're knocked out 4-0. Fault lies with the team for not getting the vital away goal that would have killed us off. Instead we scored early and kept the intensity off and they shat themselves at the crowd.

Every cliche going about how he couldn't do it in England etc.... I cannot believe someone can sit there, watch 180 minutes of that and deduce that Messi is the problem. Where was Suarez? Where was Coutinho? Where were the defence? Absolute joke.
