No one else can reproduce these system. They can literally outpass the whole the team to score.

It could also be because I’m an 80’s baby I’ve enjoyed it more because I was the perfect age to consume all football with no stress or responsibilities of life. But now it doesn’t taste the same.

    I used watch a lot of Prime Barca and especially El Clasico. It was insane how much Messi and Barca dominated in those matches.
    Messi at his prime on the ball would just make his opponents insecure. Will he dribble? Will he pass? Will he turn? Will he go left? Right? Will he feint? Will he just take a long distance shot? Will he outpace someone on the ball? He could do it all and that made him so dangerous. You just couldn't predict what he's do.

    Xabi Alonso, what a terrific player. One of my all time favorites, being a culé. Him, Casillas, Raul, Ozil, and now Modric. Phenomenal players, can't hate them.
    Just a gentle reminder of how good Messi is though when greats like him and Ramos talk of Messi this way.

      What do you mean talking about Messi??? He is simply analyzing jow he played against Xavi and Messi because of his position. He said absolutely nothing about Messi's or Xavi's talent or anything like that.

    People dont realize that without the ball, messi is ready to run, play one-two and get players out of position. If he get the ball, he could bamboozle players. You can only contain messi. You cannot tackle or stop him. His spatial and tactical awareness is impeccable.
