We are the only team in the World Cup without a new kit :francis: :

Apparently it takes Nike 18 months to design a new kit and they didnt even start on ours because they didnt think we'd qualify :dead:

Bullshyt. You mean it took them 18 months to do this? :damn:

Messi has transformed himself into an elite attacking midfielder. So many PSG misses. His assists this season would be untouchable.

That’s how you know he never really cared about all that top scorer and goal records shyt. It just came with the territory

Dennis should have pushed his agent to get him to Crystal Palace. Forest spent a lot but there's not a lot of cohesion.

I'd be curious to see the xA for him thus far. But even at his last few seasons at Barca, he turned more into an AM

I mean I'm sure he cared, but I don't think it's what drives him unlike someone else whom shall not be named. I think he's equally happy breaking assists records now. His vision and touch on those through balls is so good. Scary thing that is just a video of his first 10 games with of this season and 8 minutes long with very little replays of the same passes.

Not wrong. He has changed his role as he's lost some of his pace. Difference is at Barca those last few years he didn't have anyone who could finish like Neymar or Mbappe. Imagine Lewandowski receiving those balls from Messi.
