Messi in Copa America.

Messi

Come out George!

What has george exactly said? From what I recall he said that he has been poor in a number of games? Not far from the truth. He didn't say he wouldn't produce the goods or that he's a poor player.

I don't know but Jamie shat his pants from excitement.

He has been vastly underrating Messi for Argentina.

He said I was wrong not to blame it on the shitty Tevéz and Lavezzi and the system. I replied that if Batista changes it he will beast, he obviously said otherwise.

He also said Messi has NEVER played well for Argentina

Oh and he's said Kun shouldn't start for them. He's worse than fluffy.

Oh dear.

I dunno though, Costa really just sat back on their heels in defense. It was a great performance for sure, but we will see what happens as the tournament progresses.

you are fantastic liar. Fanatic is exactly right, I dont hate messi or think hes shit....i have never said messi has NEVER played good for argentina because I always he was very good against portugal or albania.

Fabricating things to make you look good is not right atleast try and be honest.

To be fair you said he is and has always been shit for Argentina.

To be fair, I think he said he was joking about that.

Oh, well I don't really know.

Maybe the second two, but there's no hiding from the first one.

Can't wait to see Argentina against Colombia again or against Chile, and Paraguay.

Well no one of my doubters has ever answered my question...where was Messi in 20 games of whole WC qualifiers for Argentina? WC qualifiers are usually the most International team plays and I followed Argentina very closely whilst noticing that Messi was very much missing the whole campaign. I don't say he's bad for Argentina for no reason because quite truly he's not as good as Messi we know...Even Argentina fans say this not only me.

Same here. Gonna smash them.

That doesn't make him shit for Argentina.

We shall see, especially against Chile. We all know what happened last time Argentina played Chile.

I still have fears about Argentina's awful defence tbh, but I'm condident as long as Batista doesn't go crazy and change the team.

Wow. Qualifiers is like 20 games, Messi has like 50 games..that a huge chunk to determine if he does good or not for Argentina. If Messi was amazing for Argentina like you all say...then it should be quite easy to list games he's played good in right?

Also, main arguement is really Messi is bad against SA teams. No myth there.

Judging by this i think you didn't see the game against Colombia.

I don't watch many Argentina games, but here are the ones I can think of off the top of my head...

v Portugal (Friendly)
v Mexico (Copa America)
In 2006 + 2010 WCs
v USA (Friendly)
v Costa Rica (today)

There are more out there that I can't think of right now.

Friendlies..

2006 WC is much exaggeration, I wonder if many people even watched it because for sure Messi wasn't all that. He was decent but it's not like without him they would be disaster.

These are not much games? that's like 7-12 out of 50...so it's good enough to say a player is good after 7-12 good games out of like 50+?

He did say he hasn't watched many games.

Messi was only 19 in 2006.

He played his first WC matches with Argentina at 18/19 years of age. He was brought on as a sub and still performed well.

Nah, I just forgot how old he was.

Missed that, but if you don't watch much how can you possibly come to conclusion or debate that he's not as good when playing for Argentina...but doesn't really matter now anyways.
