Actually, last I checked, he's at 11 and 12 with PSG, but 4 gls with Argentina since PSG season started. If we count from after season ended last, his total gl contributions with Argentina gives him 9 gls + 2 assists in just 4 matches. Giving him a total of 20 gls and 14 assists in 19 matches from club and country. But that's since the summer. Not 2022. From Jan to now he leads everyone in the world with gl contributions until today. I believe he's at 26 gls, and 23 assists with club and country. 49 gl contributions, but I could be making a mistake with assists. I think he may have more with Argentina since Jan 2022, and his total contributions are 55+ this year. Add his 25 with PSG and another 6 gls with PSG in early 2022, and he may be at 61+ gl contributions until now. We're still in October!!
Messi is making PSG fans very happy and excited watching him play. This type of exceptionally talented soccer player is really rare. It's PSG fans' fortune that they able to watch Messi play live in their stadium.
Yes! He'll never be forgotten. Ronaldo is a great player, but he won't look so good in history. He and his agent set up Dubai d'or and awarded himself player of the century. He must think we're really stupid. He's really stupid. He also has shown himself to be a narcissist who plays mainly for himself. And he launched a nasty campaign of slander v Messi after his 7th Ballon d'or win. He's crazy jealous of Messi. Messi said not a word. Messi is a near saint.
@@elizabethcsicsery-ronay1633 ronaldo will also not be forgotten what he has achieved is also great. Obviously footballing wise messi is the best but ronaldo is also a legend.
the touch is nothing without vision of the strategy of oppositors, ideas, style, selfesteem, genious, always learn, studying thousands of situations, gigantic desire to win
Messi doesn't waste passes honestly every pass from him is deadly. PSG has now adapted to him. To say Messi is in the top 5 of best players is an insult, he is the only one. There's Messi then there's best players.
Messi need to release the ball quicker so that his teammate's space not occupied. I dont know how his vision on the field,but he always hold the ball too long during attack.
really? great player always make teams better. if messi is that great. why cant he win 3 back to back cl title with barca. that team is literally coined the best team of all time with their core being spain player that is winning world cup and european. with messi on the team even a random Russian team name Anzhi lalalala or what ever their name was crush barca. if barca stop making messi focal point sooner they would win more cl. even neymar knows that. no neymar, xavi, iniesta no Cl for barca
When he started in psg...they thought he's finished...not knowing he's studying each game plan....and now the goat (lion)is out of the jungle..stay clear of his way.....Leo is coming?💯❤️
When Messi gets braces, or better yet, 4 gl contributions in a match, jealous haters always say "farmers". Well, he's destroying those farmers as only Messi would, or any player in the world would. But not 4 contributions. People have to understand, that farmer team or not, there are always 2,3,4 defenders marking him each time the ball approaches him. Even if a bad team triple teams one player, like Leo, he can kill you with a quick dribble, and then an easy assist, or a quick 20-25 yard screamer goal! He doesn't have to be 2 meters away; 20 meter blasts for him are as easy as PK's. Free kicks from 20-25 meters out, is a goal consistently, for Leo. He's 35, and playing better than last season, with 11 gls and 12 assists in 14 matches. He missed two due to injury. These stats resemble his season debut in 2019. He's looking younger each match. But his vision and his playmaking skills are much higher than they were in 2019. He leads Europe in UCL gl contributions. He leads all of Europe in assists. He leads evey player in Europe's 5 leagues this season with 57 successful dribbles, most ball possession, and most completed passes. He also is the top player in Europe this season with the most motm's. His gls are not bad with 11 in 15 matches: This gives him an average of 1.55 gl contributions per match for the season. If we add his stats with Argentina, since the beginning of this season, (not year, season that started in July), his total are 20 gls, and 14 assists in 19 matches, from summer until today. This is astounding for any striker, let alone a player in Europe at 35 yrs old. Age hasn't owed him down. Maybe his top speed in a sprint, but he's still fast enough, yet he's more nimble, and precise, in his shots and assists. If we add total gls + assists in 2022 with club and country, he leads all footballers in the world with 24 gls + 29 assists, putting him in 1st place in the world for contributions. He also has the most dribbles at 58, and that's only PSG. Add the dribbles he's had during Argentina matches, and now we start losing count. Also the most motm's this year. Plus the most passes completed this season in Europe. These stats are important when speaking about a playmaker, instead of Right winger only. But he adapts. He's Messi. He is the greatest footballer ever. He's the GOAT 🐐..No debate!
Oh boy! So smooth, so elegant 👌 He is not as near fast as he used to be few years ago, but he compensate lack of speed with intelligence, passing and perfect movements! My English is not good enough to describe his skills. Pure magic!
Someone must have deep hate on Messi or either don't know anything about football before comparing Messi with players who is only visible when he scored for 90minutes. I have never see that aspect of football that Messi is lacking that will make u compare him with someone else. Your the best Messi, dey created the rivalry through media so other players don't have to feel less of a footballers. I LOVE YOU LEO
Here is my essay on Messi : What makes Messi the ultimate best footballer of all time ( in my view ) , is not nescessarily his goalscoring abillity , but his overall football intelligence ... The critical runs he makes..His awareness of other players around him ...HIS PASSING GAME 😳😳😳😳....damn...I havent seen ANY PLAYER ( apart from him , Ronaldinhio and Zidane ) who have that kind of passing accuracy ...It looks like he has a built in drone system 😅...And mind you , i have been watching football since the early 80's when i was still a kid ..( Oops i just gave my age away 😳😅😅) This in itself makes Argentina a real dangerous outside dark horse to win the world cup ... There are just a few guys that has a very good passing abillity in the modern game , but they are very much way below Messi ' s par ....2 for example is Kevin de Bruyne and Paul Pogba of France ... I saw Messi in the 2014 final ( if im correct ) ...He had the abillity to pass the ball to his playmates in critical goalscoring positions , but the team around him back then ( like Higuain and kie ) , did not had the awareness and full comprehension of the kind of ball Messi was playing at Barcelona ... The only torchbearers left of that "tiki taka " system today ,is only Messi and Neymar .....Neymar had to learn it from them anyway ...because Messi , Xavi , Iniesta , Busquets were all coming from the Barcelona " Johann Cruyff " academy ... The only difference between them was the fact that Messi was a natural born , God given talent ...The tiki taka system just enhanced his football awareness ... Many people say ...." teach the young upcoming players to watch and learn from Messi " ....Its impossible ...They should learn from Cristiano Ronaldo..not Messi ... Messi has set the bar of football playing too high ...ordinary footballers cannot compete with a unique God given talent ..!!!! Someone once said ; ( like a small child i choose to believe this an accurate assumption ) ...He said ; " GOD WANTED TO PLAY FOOTBALL , SO HE DISGUISED HIMSELF AS LIONEL MESSI " and played amongst us humans ... The big difference for Argentina THIS time around , is that the current crop of Argentinian footballers have finally fit the mold of the Messi ball ... Im not saying outrightly they will win the world cup , but theres a big difference in this team ... They attack as one .. They deffend as one ... It looks like they are all playing for Messi ... The reason has a LOT to do with the comparisons between him and ( my hero) Diego Armando Maradonna ... Messi is in my view Maradonna on steriods .. I will give them my vote to progress far in this upcoming world cup .. And who knows , maybe Lionel Andres Messi can finally do all us hopefuls the favor by lifting the worldcup .. It will be very dignified and just right ( in my view ) to seal of his illustrious career with that ultimate honours...
Pretty much agree with you but i won't call Messi as Maradona on steroids more likely this is what Maradona could have achieved if he was a true profesional maybe even more i still rate Maradone as peak talent higher than Messi but overall i don't think should be even a discussion and about his passing game well that;s what makes him for me better than everyone, he is great in any aspect of the game but his vision his passing game his football intelligence are so impressive to watch .. His entire style of playing is so unique, is just amazing
The vision of Messi is insanely beautiful! 🤯 Magical magical magical! The awareness around him he keeps wow! None can do that! Messi! We go for the World Cup 2022! Qatar is Messi's! 🤯 Sure domination absolute!
THE ONE is not hitting the ball, he is caressing the ball, it looks like that All i know is this man cannot be compared with any football player since this game has been invented
He will be renewed by PSG or to city or chelsea until 2025 and 1 more maybe..! The deal is on... He wil retire at 38 or 39..by then all records no 1 will be his..!
He may last another four or five years. Why not? Puskas played till he was forty, Zlatan is forty and still playing, Stanley Mathews played until he was fifty. Several others were still playing past fifty. We're talking about Messi here. So stop lamenting. He plays now like he's in his prime. He's not so fast, but he's even more clever.
Messi mind needs to be studied he’s different the way he understands football is different level he’s like the master of foot nobody was ever so good like this. You’ll have fast player who will score alota gaols but no one is like Messi
So true and well said. Sport science does study him. They have come to the conclusion, based on goals, assists, playmaking in general, beautiful passes, spectacular dribbles, on target shots, etc. etc. plus heat map, that he's THREE TIMES better than anyone else. So he's the GOAT. Fourfourtwo journals puts him first of 100 best footballers in history. Science says there won't be anybody to equal him much less surpass him. And if you add to this his luminous character.
@@elizabethcsicsery-ronay1633 which is crazy because you always heard about this player was the next Messi but they never play close to the goat's level. And he's out here looking like tom Brady throwing and catching a football.
One of the best messi videos I have seen.Good job,but Mann,what else can we say about this genius Messi,unbelievable.Comparing anyone to this gem of a player its just an insult to the football fraternity.
When he has the ball and no matter what tight spot or dead ball it is, all his mates around the pitch should always expect to receive a silk pass no matter where you are on the pitch.. he will deliver it at your foot step. You better be ready and expecting it. And better do something amazing with it.
I don't know how many years will have to pass to see a player like the GOAT, he was born to play football, it's a delight to watch him play, and I know there were a Pele, Maradona and other exceptional players, no one can compare to Messi though, he is out of this world 🌍. I love the game more because of him♥️
There are a lifetime amount of highlights in this video😳, how is possible to accomplish so many of them in such a short time?..Did he ever played for Barcelona?….seems so far away 😂
No se puede creer! 35 años y este tipo está impecable. Sólo bajó un poco la velocidad explosiva que tenía en sus primeros años. Pero de calidad, elegancia, compañerismo, asistencia y precisión...está impecable.
It's hard to believe that all these beautiful highlights are just a preview of just 15 games and to some other player it'd be enough to start comparing him with football greats but it's just normal for Messi
He is incomparable... The goat. I have not seen someone this creative and visionary on the pitch before, making throughball after throughball and chance after chance... Definitely can notice him declining a little I'm ngl, but to perform like this at 35... Insane
Almost all these goals are special ones for any other player.. he simply has these type of goals every season and we take it for granted because that's the level he has set for himself
Messi is a gift to football. The chances he creates and provides for his team to score is just insaine. Shame there are a lot of great key passes from messi wasted by his team.
