That's not being weak on the ball, that's being steamrolled off the ball.

Thiago has and never will get outmuscled. If you care to find a picture or video, it must have been photoshopped.badham21 wrote:lol, you found one example? i bet i can find an example of any player getting outmuscled

But Messi is stronger than Mertesacker.
The point is.. Messi is not incredibly strong, he's incredibly agile and has great balance, Lassana Diarra is a very small man and just smashed him. Any central defender who came shoulder to shoulder he wouldn't have a chance just trying to use pure momentum and strength. Its all about agility and balance.

ok lol, those people are wrong, he can outmuscle a few players when they are off balance, but he doesnt have that great strength, as you say balance makes him look strong.Chris wrote:Yeh but people say Messi out-muscles everyone.. when really he just uses great agility and balance.badham21 wrote:diarra is a small guy? still bigger than fucking messi

How come Khedira and Pepe didn't outmuscle him?
Every attacker gets pushed off the ball at some stage, weak or strong.

Pepe fell and he bounced of Khedira because of his agility and balance
