Messi: I hate Chelsea (7 years ago)

[Spike 12,049]

okay, so what about it

who cares

Who does that in a celebration? This a comparison:

Maradona does drugs (cocaine to be exact) and screams into a camera for about half a second. Suspended.

Messi takes drugs (growth hormones to be exact) and kicks a soud mic to hell. Circle Jerk.

The situations aren't the same but the actions are. Besides kicking a sound mic is equal to kicking a camera, and if Messi did indeed kick a camera, I wonder what the reaction would be.

It's not like I didn't like the goal too.

so cocaine and growth hormone are the same category of drugs now

one is an illegal party drug, while the other was used to help a kid from a poor family grow a bit taller so he can play football at the highest level

Didn't I say 'the situations aren't the same'? I never said or insinuated they were the same damn thing. Stop using reductio ad absurdum.

Besides I have more than once defended Messi and growth hormoans on this forum.

maradona was suspended because the drugs he took was illegal so that was a poor comparison

i still dont know why i or anyone should give a damn about a player kicking a sound mic while celebrating an important goal

he didn't kick a camera, didn't kick a ball into anyone's face while celebrating, so who cares

In my mind it reaffirms his holier than thou attitude. I don't care about the sound mic, it is the gesture that bothers me.

I don't think there's much rivalry at all on their behalf to be honest... Yeah we dislike them because of the controversy in 'that' semi-final but i think they just see us as another English club. I could be wrong though.

I also think messi is a little overated thanks to the players around him. Look at mascherano for example. He goes to barcelona and suddenly he's one of the "best" CBs in europe

To my knowledge Barca do think of us as Rivals as much as we do them, we're perhaps their second biggest rivalry behind Madrid. They have had epic battles with us in the past, and apperently they respect us alot. Make no mistakes, this is a 2 way street, yes perhaps we hate them more but that's only because we're in the position we're in now. WHEN we climb back to the top Barca will be much more scared of us and the Barca-Chelsea rivalry will be back to where it was 2+ years ago

He really isnt mate. He may well be surrounded by great players but he is without a doubt the best player of this generation if not ever.

edit. After super Frank

Messi is slightly overrated, and CR7 is slightly underrated, having said that Messi is still the best player on earth, but the difference between him and CR7 is not miles or Night and Day as some idiots think. In any other time we would be calling CR7 the best of all time, although he still is one of the Greatest players ever IMO, truly incredible Player.

He is not the best player of all time as some are saying, and CR7 does not get enough Praise due to the Messi hype and his perception of being 'Stuck up'

he's not the best of all time according to who?

These are my opinions (and the opinions of alot of others), This IS a forum after all. Untill Messi wins or at least dominates at a World cup he won't eclipse Maradona

[warnie_666 1,081]

People saying he is greater than Maradona are Fuckheads. Maradona single handedly steered Argentina to a World Cup win when the country was recovering from one of the worst turmoils they faced after the Falkland Wars.

He single handedly steered Napoli to serie A title. Napoli were not Milan, Madrid or Barcelona.

Unless Messi plays in an ordinary team and single handedly lifts the team to new heights he will NEVER EVER SURPASS MARADONA.

He has played two world cups and numerous international tournaments and Argentina hasnt won anything.

MARADONA WAS AND IS THE GREATEST PLAYER EVER TO KICK A FOOTBALL PERIOD
