Messi’s 18/19 season should be the trailer for the sport. Literally a 1 man army

[scheimong]

I think Wayne Rooney put it best:
"Why do you think Messi is the greatest of all time?"
"The goals he scores... They just look spectacular."

[milktea]

The fact that Messi had a goal contribution almost every 45 minutes tells you enough that may have been the greatest individual season of all time. Especially in the contemporary era. Imagine being almost guaranteed two goals a game as long as Messi was playing. Whether if it came from Messi or Messi ended up assisting the goal.

[Hahaa]

Real fans will never forget about his 2018/2019 season.

[DarthwRath]

Lionel Messi,

He became The GOAT in 2012..

He became more than that in 2015 and 2018..

And then he became The God of Football in 2022.

[lwandomadikizela]

2012: Lionel Messi just went another level that can never be repeated nor emulated. 50 La Liga goals in a single season and in Europe's top 5 leagues. 91 goals in a single calendar year. No question that was Lionel Messi at his peak and won his 4th straight Ballon D'or to add to his legacy.

[giodhuha]

Another fact that most have forgotten was Barca were in the middle of transition from Pep to Tito who could not even sit on the bench for whole season as he was suffering cancer i believe and Jordi Roura took over temporarily in his absence. Even though there was instability in management side, he still performed better.

[stillakilla]

Not just goals, GOALAZOS.
Not just assists, RED CARPET ASSISTS.
Not just records, RECORDS THAT WON'T BE PASSED IN OUR LIFETIME.

🐐

[Redonepunch]

Not just a boat load of goals, but the quality of the goals were amazing.

[haidaraziz]

This is definitely the best football research channel, how you only have 20, 000 subs is beyond me... another great video

[nutsguts]

For me 2019 Messi always gonna be the real GOAT but 2012 is build diff

[saurabmanirimal]

Messi is always in his Prime
From the day he started playing

[Chhetrysushil]

According to me messi has 9 primes, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2015, 2017, 2019, 2022 and now in miami he is cooking as well BTW..he is playing in his prime since 2007

[masters.]

Not only the goals but almost all of his performances were stellar, and all of them by playing on his own.
Probably Håland or some other guy will match it but by scoring easy goals provided by the team.

[Jokerxeno]

As a madrid fan, I envy the fact that barcelona got to have messi play on their team. If I'm being honestly, I think the most incredible part of all of this is that, this wasn't even the most incredible things messi has actually done.

[BigFish]

"Even Ronaldo who is often seen as a better marksman couldn't rival" that alone is a level of joy on its own!
Messi has shown who's the boss all his life but critics would always be critics

[Pintkonan]

imagine being part of that squad at the time and having messi at the absolute peak of his powers as a teammate, what a joy to behold it must have been. xD

[SlMPLExavi]

There’s no debate. He can do so much more. It’s never really been a debate.

[chromeheart]

It’s not down to personal preference at all, it’s a fact Messi is a footballer who just happens to be so good he can compete stats wise with goal scorers .

[BigFish]

"The south American would drop into midfield to pick up the ball from his false 9 position and take control in the ongoing throng".. one thing Ronaldo would but dream of. There are levels to what is called "GOAT"
