nobody saw lionel messi coming

England > Agentina? Ya, they won the friendly, but u can't say that next time they will win for sure. Nobody knows what happens in football. Messi is a great player but still need way more experience to compete with rooney.

thanks!
it's an improvement over the poor ones they gave him in we9..obviously compiled before having seen him play
though his speed and particularly his acceleration are his strongest points
he can carry the ball tied to his foot at top speed and can blast by players by accelerating in two steps
he's also relentless in attack so I'd rate him higher than a 52
I figure when he wins the tuttosport's world's best youth player award in a few weeks more people will concede that he's truly world class

Is he really that quick?? Didn't notice that. Thought it was more his agility and technique that made the difference. Why exactly would you rate his aggression higher???

England WILL win the World Cup.

before they signed him for 150million euros

I don't think so.....

yeah, as one former coach in argentina put it, he seems to defy the laws of physics with the ball
but take a look at the 40 yard run at the beginning of this video
his acceleration is phenomenal
and I'd rate aggression higher because he is absolutely relentless in attack

 

[guest501]

I don't think so.....

a pretty big deal was made

It should be kept in mind that his current release clause is of 150 million euros, the same as Ronaldinho.

Messi has all the makings to to be a big star, no doubt about that.

England WILL NOT WIN THE WORLD CUP...dude get real, they barely beat Argentina without Veron and they beat Argentina with a sucky Goalkeeper, Abbondanzieri sucks, put Lux, Constanzo or Ustari in there and we would have won 2-1

 

[guest501]

england can win the world cup if rooney stars..problem is he's inconsistent, irreplaceable, and the rest of the squad is marginal, at best
