I'm sure he lived through both Pele and Maradona to be able to come to such a conclusion.

I lived through Maradonas whole career. I'm so fucking old. ;(

 

[Ser Goje]

Now my Germany jersey doesn't have enough stars on it

Draw one on it m8.

That's what I'm gonna do.

Milch must be fucking dead drunk by now.

[ShogunDarius]

I'll miss Hansen

Not because he's great


Because he'll be replaced by Danny Mills or someone

imagine if it was Phil Neville :/

 

[Turok_TTZ]

Stay a scrub mehssi. You're nothing compared to the likes of Ronaldinho and Zidane, both who have won their wcs for their nations.

Maradona remains the best argentina ever produced.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

How long would the post-match be if England won the World Cup?

 

[3Sixty]

YES

Pre season video diaries.

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE.

LOL I would never draw on it. Shit costs too much!

Haha

 

[Linius]

Haha, this girl from high school tweeted: "Now Messi didn't win the world cup we can close the GOAT discussion, he's still overrated".

I just can't.

It's incredible that this is how your brain works. Like, you are able to watch football and these are the conclusions you come to.

You don't half chat some shite, mate.

 

[Steverulez]

How long would the post-match be if England won the World Cup?

Probably about 2 hours and it would be followed by the news and then a program about how we won it from the qualifiers to the group stages then knockout rounds.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Is this true? Damn

 

[Rad-]

It's fun to laugh at ghost Özil every now and then

but he was good today.

Get excited

Take me home..........

To the place

It's not like Zidane carried France to a title. He played GOAT in 06, not 98.

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

imagine the German baby boom in 9 months.

 

[Perfect Blue]

This "all the greats win a world cup" attitude makes no sense to me. You can't beat a team by yourself. What happens if you're from Wales, like Bale, or Northern Ireland, like Best? Everyone outside of Argentina's defence wasn't helping Messi at all. The other strikers were dire.

It's just an arbitrary metric insecure manbabies come up with because they can't handle the fact that Messi is better than their childhood heroes. If he won the WC but didn't win the Champions League or some other tournament, people would use that then.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Is this true? Damn

He has been vomiting on the pitch for like a full year now, I have no reason to doubt it.

 

[Lightning]

Loew is just so likeable. What a legend.

And I'd love every second of it

Loew is just so likeable. What a legend.

Leads Germany to glory again in 2016 and then joins Arsenal.

 

[ShogunDarius]

Hodgson smiling at you, directly at your soul while holding the cup with Gerrard, Sturridge, Henderson etc all around him.

Wenger "it's gonna be very difficult for my German players to focus vs Stoke city after winning the WC"

lol

 

[Xpike]

Messi is not true GOAT status not because he didn't single-handedly carried his team to win a WC, but rather because he's been missing from the important games all thoughout the year, from Champions to La Liga to everything in this Final from the 2nd half onward. He could do a revival, but right now it looks like his decline has begun.

Anyway international football can fuck off for a bit, let's being club leagues back quickly.

 

[Shanks D Zoro]

In all honesty it is stupid to compare Messi and Maradona. Maradona played in an era when defending was a lot tougher and the rules of the game favoured defending. While Messi plays in an era where attackers have the advantage.

Messi would have most likely have been destroyed playing in Serie A during the 80s, while Maradona would be retired by 26 because of his work ethic and lifestyle if he played today.

Spoiler

Plus they both have nothing on Totti

 

[Scum]

I lived through Maradonas whole career. I'm so fucking old. ;(

Commiserations, mate. Go easy on Messi.

Reminiscing about the good old Ballack days

loooool

For years to come, mate.

Go back to bed, Turok.

All those Mario's and Maria's being born in Germany in the next few weeks

 

[Randdalf]

I'll miss Hansen

Not because he's great


Because he'll be replaced by Danny Mills or someone

I wouldn't mind Danny Murphy

 

[omgkitty]

SELFIE TIME

He didn't play at all did he?

 

[Marc]

So Germany won in the end, called it last year...

I can see Germany winning the world cup, overloaded with talent. I look on in envy.

I also said Muller would be the best player, IMO he was, and that Belgium would be the surprise package. Can't win em all.


Hitcher, you should collate your predictions posts:

He played against Portugal and USA.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

So...so glad he gets to add the WC medal.

Just great stuff.

lol

hard for Wenger too, we have Crystal Palace first.

 

[L1NETT]

Yup, thought he was decent. Want more Chris Waddle too.

Mills would be in Niall Quinn auto mute territory.

 

[omgkitty]

He played against Portugal.

Ah okay I remember that now. It's a shame he has the #10 jersey though. Doesn't really deserve it, especially if he's not even playing.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Yikes, that's awful. Hopefully it gets figured out.

Feel like some of these players need some good rest now.

 

[RandyBobandy]

You guys are probably better to ask this. Genuine question

Ronaldo's records and achievements are comparable to Messi's. They've won everything at club level and broken numerous awards. Both have won nothing at international level, yet Messi is considered the GOAT.

Why?

Why aren't players like Iniesta considered GOAT when he's literally won everything you can as a player.

 

[omgkitty]

Don't worry. Ramsey will bang a couple in with Alexis.

 

[Barzul]

Newcastle signed Remy!

Hopefully they can announce Debuchy departure soon. That one has gone on a bit long.

Because he has not had the same level of influence on his teams. And it's not just because he isn't a forward.

Because Messi is better than both. Simple as that, really.
