When you play Argentina and Messi, there are several ways to limit his impact, at least.
It is possible to stop Messi. Teams do it when he plays for Argentina. But the Barcelona Messi is different.
Without Messi there isn't a team for Argentina, Messi is brilliant, different, with a strong mentality. Let's hope he doesn't change.
Messi is not really from Barca's ranks. What they did was sign the most talented kid in the whole of Argentina! Messi was already Messi when he arrived at Barcelona - they simply polished him. Cristiano Ronaldo is already too old to learn and change the way he is. When he was 13, someone should have sent him home when he didn't behave properly.
The problem is that when Argentina doesn't play well - and the same is true of Barcelona - the press think it is easy to blame Messi. We have seen time and time again that he wins games on his own when the team is not performing - but the media expect him to always be the hero.
Maradona has done a lot for his clubs, as Messi does, and for the Argentina national team.
There are people you can say you have seen play, such as Pele or Maradona. But Messi is unique, out on his own, and is going to make history. I can say I saw Messi play.
All of us know that Messi cannot win alone, except for the fanatics or the mental patients who put in doubt Messi's talents, saying that he is a bottler, that he feels nothing for Argentina, that he doesn't sing the anthem, that he goes to the bathroom 50 times before a game. Those are things that are said to make an impression.
Messi owes something to Argentina. He knows that.
Every year, Messi seems to reach his limit, but he always ends up exceeding that. He is the best.
Perhaps Argentina have been benefited by the talent of Messi.
Messi is an ambassador of Argentina, and I am also proud of him as an Argentine.
I've come to see that you can limit God is different ways. You can limit Him by thinking he can never work in spectacular ways. But you can also limit Him by thinking that only the spectacular is meaningful." - from "Dug Down Deep
I'm able to impact people's lives by the way I play, but there's so much more things I can do so there is no limit to what I can do.
Messi is a god, as a person and even more as a player. I hope that he wins the World Cup with Argentina.
I prefer that Argentina wins the World Cup. Messi deserves it for all he has done in football. He's my friend, I wish him the best
Messi plays in Spain, we know he makes a difference, but if you've played against him then maybe you're aware of situations that can repeat on the pitch. But Messi is Messi, with his talent, he may send a spark with very little and make the difference. He is unpredictable.
