Lionel Messi has been very disrespected this season, with people saying he isn't scoring as much or he's a "system player", "needs Barcelona", "is finished", etc. But I'm going to show context as to exactly why Lionel Messi isn't scoring as much. It's not that he can't, he simply doesn't have to or doesn't want to. It's not what you think... just hear me out. Let's look at ways Messi has been insane this season, because while he may not be scoring as much, he's contributing in a much bigger way something nobody is really talking about, but I'm here to to bring respect to the man. Don't doubt Messi just yet. Leave a like if you enjoyed and let me know what vid you want next 🙏 ❤️ (Title and thumbnail are just clickbait don't get mad haha)

    • Great video dude💚He has 17 goals + assists in 23 games. It's a good stat; but when we're talking about Messi, we expect him to have about 23 goals + assists in 23 games. But we should consider one thing: He has hit the ball to the crossbar 9 times! So to be honest, I think he's been great at PSG and the main problem is that he's been unlucky! Not only because of that, but also because his teammates lost about 6 times the great chances he had created and if they had not missed them, he would now have about 6 more assists!

  • Messi has always said he prefers titles over goals or personal achievements. When he scored 72 goals in a season Barça only won the Copa del Rey, Club world cup and Spanish & European supercups but he said he'd prefer to have 5 goals and win the league and champions league. After all those goals records he's broken, I don't expect him to try to compete with his teammate Mbappe who's less than ten years younger than him for most goals; better to try to help Mbappe score more so the entire team can win titles. The media looks at everything in isolation without context to drive fan debates

  • Some things I agree with and others I disagree with. Addressing the first part of the video. I disagree with the extent of how much you said Messi "learned" from the other players you mentioned. Messi was an alien with god given talent and just got better and better and more refined. From his very first training session you could see that in his finishing, dribbling and passing. The Joan Gamper Trophy is widely regarded as the game where Messi first made the world stand up and take notice. He was dribbling around the greatest defenders and set up Andres Iniesta beautifully for the goal. He didnt learn how to dribble from Iniesta or how to score from Henry or Eto'o. He was already doing all of those things and just kept getting better at an exponential rate. Even Xavi said that it was incredible how Messi understood everything (in terms of decision making and and how to play) at such a young age. Also, Messi started off on the wing and when Pep had the vision to play Messi centrally and closer to goal thats when you really saw Messi's scoring go through the roof. Also there is no such thing as a system player. Barca have a philosophy not a system, there is a huge difference. Messi has played in numerous systems and under a multitude of coaches as well as different teammates. Individually, he has always remained consistently the best no matter the every changing conditions around him. Now on to his current form in the French League. First of all its not as easy as his detractors would suggest. Look at the teams the French teams have knocked out of the Champions League in the past years (CR7's Juventus and Man City come to mind). Also the first observation I made is the physicality of the French League. They play a lot more physical and are allowed to get away with it. I am not suggesting that Messi cant play in a physical environment as he has done it his entire career with Argentina. I am just saying its going to be tougher. Also Messi is once again being played on the wing instead of centrally at the age of 34-35. He is also spending more time dropping deeper than he has ever done in the past. Look at his recent heatmaps of where he is receiving the ball. You will not get the same goal output from him as at Barca. At Barca Messi was the center of everything and now he doesnt have to carry that offensive burden alone. When teams play deep to block Messi out he can rely on feeding Mbappe who is fast, lethal and dependable. But its not like Messi hasnt tried to score. He is extremely competitive. He has hit the woodwork more than any other player. Had those chances gone in, this wouldn't be a video. The great part about Messi is that he never needed to be just a goal scorer to impact a game. He is like Batman, when one tool runs out he can reach into his pocket and bring out something else. What makes him an outlier is that if he cant score he still has the vision and ability to make key passes, facilitate the offense and assist in any game.

  • Another factor is age, he just cant make dribbles out of nowhere and score like 2011, he's 34. He has to either stay foward and get goals but sacrifice the magic of dribbles and vision he has. He can move back and dictate the play. Something that doesn't happen often in a ronaldo type position. He just can't score often there. Go watch his games and you will see his vision, control, and mastery of the game. His freekick is still magnificant and thats one thing that doesnt go with age. He will score, but not every match like he used to.

  • 1. Because he has a different role where he's supposed to progress the ball into the final third & create even more than before. 2. Because the little team dynamics with linkup are missing for example with wide outlets who'd create for him (Alba) so he gets less good chances to score. 3. Because his finishing has been below average for the first time in his career.

  • Idk if we can talk about Messi wanting to preserve his body, but the system he's playing under definetly doesn't fit him: a counter-attacking team that overrelies on their forwards. That's why Messi has dropped deeper; he used to do that at Barça when the teammates just weren't able to withstand press and pass to him. This is why Pochettino also invites Messi to play that deep, so they could control the game better and use better passes for the attackers.

  • He has 17 goals + assists in 23 games. It's a good stat; but when we're talking about Messi, we expect him to have about 23 goals + assists in 23 games. But we should consider one thing: He has hit the ball to the crossbar 9 times! So to be honest, I think he's been great at PSG and the main problem is that he's been unlucky! Not only because of that, but also because his teammates lost about 6 times the great chances he had created and if they had not missed them, he would now have about 6 more assists!

The media and younger generation football fans look at it in such an ignorant way. Messi has been tearing it up for decades. Most players now have 1 or 2 good seasons. Messi and Ronaldo have been dominating for years, years, years and years. You’re right! We will never see anyone like Messi or Ronaldo again. Give the respect Messi deserves. He doesn’t have/need to score. He’s done it for 15 years. His main assignment at PSG is to help score goals, link up play, passing and assists. I don’t think Messi is bothered about scoring goals. I think he wants to help his team mates, such as Neymar and M’bappe to score. I don’t think M’bappe will be anywhere near as good as Messi or Ronaldo… PSG have Neymar, M’bappe and Di Maria who are expected to be scoring. Messi is like Iniesta now. He’s not a goal scorer. He’s a playmaker now
