where are all the messi haters now huh? you guys first thought that argentina tied all of these matches cause of messi, while he assisted LAVEZTI for a 1 on 1 against the keeper in that game vs colombia. then you say he is nothing without xavi and iniesta, which is one of the stupidest comment a soccer fan can mention since IF YOU WATCHED ALL ARGENTINA GAMES, messi plays as a CAM (xavi, or iniesta's role)! I would actually agree with you haters if messi played as striker (like he does with barca) and didnt get shit done, but it's a whole diff story with argentina.

just admit messi's shit in argentina? so wait, by him assisting and creating not just opportunities BUT GOALS, he is shit? it was batista's fault for argentina's disqualification for this copa america, since he didnt know how to manage the team. look at it this point, pellegrini (ex madrids coach)didnt do shit for madrid even thou ronaldo was there, so does that mean that ronaldo was shit cause he didnt win anything that year? no, it means that the coach is shit and thats why mou helped madrid win copa, and help ronaldo show his worth in la liga the year after. so bottom line it wasnt messi's fault, it was the coach, if not higuain, tevez, aguero, lavezzi, mascherano, di maria and pastore would all be shit as well

CR sees only himself on the field. Messi sees 22 players on the field....if he doesn't score then he makes other players score. Great vision...a little general. That's why he is the best.

ppl think messi doesn't score goals for the national team because he's nothing without xavi and iniesta they dont see that messi takes the role of xavi and iniesta on the national team he showed it on the WC and showed it in this tournament. aguero, di maria and others can score... if messi gets the ball at his foot he will find them and they can score haters go away

to football fans you make sense but to CR7 fans all they read was CR7 CR7 CR7 CR7 CR7 CR7 CR7 CR7 CR7 CR7 CR7 CR7. They will never understand the importance of Messi in club and international. As much as I hate to say it Barcelona will miss Messi if injured much more than Xavi or Ineista and I am a Xavi fan.

Better than Tevez. Higuain even nearly got a goal, but it was flagged offside! I thought he was good.

when he is on the bench the other dont get as half chances as he does, he misses chances but he earns them and he could blame him if he still does better the other options.

yeah u piece of crap. Start talking when they actually win something with Ronaldo. MESSI OWNS CR7. And he proves it by stepping up in the big games. Where as recently CR7 only has the CdR final to really brag about. And before you say he doesnt do shit at international level, as a player, he has won more trophies, accolades, honours and merits for both club and country. Ronaldo didnt win shit with Portugal. So do ur research before u say anything

good play by messi but the person who ever he is who started the curent barcelona style remains the unsung genius. It doesnt matter messi playing with xavi or iniesta the platform of the barca style is what elivates him above the other great players. please play two videos of messi with barca and argentina at the same time and pause both when he has the ball look at the difference in the position of his team mates and the space created for him.

everyone started praising messi suddenly forgetting the efforts of gago and how weak costa rica were.... they forget that messi showed up when the team didnt needed him , providing 2 tiny passes, and the one to di maria was the brilliance of Di Maria since i cudnt see anyone else scoring on such a stupid assist he gave ... its funny how these ppl forget that gago , di maria and aguero were the players responsible for the victoria of argentina and not messi..but yea sure these ppl live on monopoly and not on who plays better

if i stated whom fan i am u'll start commenting on my fav club and not how messi performed... i wud just like to hear how messi was different than Gago? they both were playing almost same...but the responsibility messi had, he didnt fulfilled it by not scoring and making stupid chances...i bet if pedro or bojan or jeffren was there instead of great players like Kun Aguero or Di Maria , none of those 3 wud have scored from those chances...bcuz it needs great skills of players like di maria and kun aguero to capitalize on stupid chances messi makes...i laugh on it

U know...just becoz he is MESSI, once the ball stay under his feet, several opponents will come naturally suround him, thats the great opportunity to drag ur opponents away from ur teamate, sumore he is good at dribbling and through pass, tats make his team easy to score. . Is ok if u disagree, then u try to search bout others longer highlight, see how many great passed from Messi to Higuain, Higuain just like in shooting bird training...disapointed. . Messi always did some great passed, but his teamate that let him down. Luckly Arguero in top form last nite.

don't blame higuain, i have already watched the longer highlights..i accept the fact that messi is surrounded by many players so that other get chance .. but how do expect everyone else to play like barcelona...everyone has his own game and quality and tricks, everyone can't just loOk on how messi is playing and try to read his minds...the thing is that everyone was playing good and messi only showed normal performance when they were playing against a low class international team...he was no where when his team needed the so called world class player messi against bolivia and colombia... but when even kun aguero and di maria were playing better messi only showed up then, and now everyone praising him as if GAGO , Di Maria And kun Aguero were inferior to him

No , before the injury Higuain was the no. 1 striker in Real Madrid with Raul ( before he leaves madrid ) , n he recovered in the last of the season when Real Madrid was fighting in all competitions !!!! if u were mourinho would u make Higuain plays as a leading striker right after his recovery in important matches ?!!!! it would be insane , even he's miles better than Adebayor which is SHIT as u said !!!! i hope Real Madrid will get rid of him n bring Aguero instead of him......he's a great striker !!!! with higuain we'll have a great offence

I agree Higuain is incredibly underrated. He's very young and he scores loads of goals! I swear before he got injured, he had like 7 goals in 10 matches!
