I mean bro is manhandling opponents and calling them “bobo” and stuff 😂. Like as a Barca fan who’s watched him my whole life, I’m not going to say he was timid his whole career, but this dude is a whole new person from the guy who lost the WC in '14.

What happened?

    I didn’t say he was a good person. I haven’t met either of them, so I have no right to comment on that aspect of their lives. I said he’s a professional footballer. He’s not on his phone during team talks. Or fucking around during practice. Messi was born with a gift like a nepo baby. Ronaldo had an incredible rise to stardom through hard work, obsession and dedication. You can think what you want of him, but he deserves his roses. As does Messi, of course.

    Ps I was expecting to be down voted. I’m expecting THIS to get downvoted too because I don’t expect a fanboy of either side to understand nuance.

      “Messi was born with a gift like a nepo baby.”

      I think we may have found the most moronic comment on reddit.

        So no rebuttal about him being on his phone or not taking training seriously, like many of his teammates have publicly stated? Or his fallout with Pep about his Coca Cola intake? What else is to be expected by a dude who mentions r*pe allegations immediately in a conversation about football. I don’t care to be popular in this sub because to quote Rick and Morty, “Your boos mean nothing, I’ve seen what makes you cheer”. Fuck it, while I’m here, Qatar 2022 was the worst World Cup ever from every stand point.

          So we’ve established you don’t know what ‘nepotism’ means, what ‘rebuttal’ means, and that rape is more important than football.

          I’ve seen what makes you cheer, and it’s ridiculous.
