Barca switch to back to the 4-3-3. Messi has 2 goals, an assist, and hits the woodwork 3 times. not rocket science.

Here it comes...

Is Messi a SYSTEM PLAYER?

Is Messi a SYSTEM PLAYER?

hell of an example to ask this question
what system involves messi making a 40 yard diagonal pass from the same position as his left back?

 

[noskey]

Yeah but can Messi hit a 40 yard diagonal pass over the heads of Stoke on a rainy Tuesday night in January?

you brought up the formation change to suit him, as opposed to Koeman's 2-1-7.

Juve's kit looks so much better w/ dark shorts.

yeah but that's a large leap in logic to calling him a system player. it's disrespectful if we are being honest.

no

no

Because Messi has won what with the senior national side?

EDIT: This is all in 1/2 jest, so take it for what it's worth.

Also Bantz Lord T , touché

 

[noskey]

Srsly, Messi has never proven he can win outside Spain. Ronaldo at least won with his national team and across Europe in any competition he played in and in the US by avoiding extradition so skillfully.

 

[jape]

I’ve read some dumb things on here but this is up there.
I guess all these amazing players past and present who call him the goat are all just mistaken from him playing at Barca’s system when barca hasn’t been more successful till Messi got there.
Not to mention how Barca’s style has completely evolved all these years. Soccer fans really showing they ***.

 

[AZwildcats]

Messi’s goal scoring/assist record in the CL is enough to dismiss any of the can’t win outside of Spain talk. The man is not a system player

 

[noskey]

Come on man. You should know me better than that by now I love to play devil's advocate.

 

[AZwildcats]

Forgive me, pandemic has me on edge.

[Coupé It]

Yea, besides the classy home kit. Pool have gotten some New balance looking Nike alternate kits.

 

[Rambo93940]

No way in hell thats the 4th kit, looks like a bootleg Yankees jersey.

 

[jking0821]

that kit is hideous

If you are going to go for an infra red AM90 theme go all in and make it old school looking. Pin stripes are terrible

 

[fluid hips]

Saw that kit and first thought was it looked like a baseball jersey

 

[fluid hips]

Juve's kit looks so much better w/ dark shorts.

Looks alot better than the white shorts and socks

 

[luisfigo]

Some videos to kill some time. Hope they do more in the future. Would like to see a baggio, maradona, fat Ronaldo, and zizou. Even a Spain one would be good.
