And it's scary how he had one of longest primes and that too not just once but multiple times From 2009-12 the best player of the World(Officially and consecutively) 2013 was an injury prone year still the 2nd best player in the World (Officially) 2014 was a tough year and still he was the 2nd best player that year (again officially) 2015 one of the most complete if not the most complete version of Messi winning his 2nd treble(at that time no other team ever won 2 trebles. And only bayern had 1 treble) being the best player in the World(Officially) Then one of the best years of Messi but highly underrated ones 😔 Then in 2019 he was a complete one man army who carried a dead barca to a possible treble again🐐 but those dreams shattered after losing in Champions league semi finals against Liverpool and was the best player in the world(officially again) Then in 2021 he won Copa America and the best player in the world again(officially) And then The World Champion won the best player in the world(again)
I don’t know if Messi has a ‘Prime season’. He can dribble, shoot goals, be a playmaker …..and he’s still doing that now in MLS. Prime Messi? ……. It’s just MESSI!😊
I remember that PSG game like it was yesterday. They drew 2-2 in Paris in the first leg but Messi picked up an injury in that game and was on the bench at the Camp Nou. They weren’t playing well and PSG took the lead after about 50-55 mins and it all felt a bit anxious or tense in the stadium…. Then he just got off the bench and started doing a warm-up on the touchline and the crowd just rose and started cheering. He then comes on and not only did it lift the Barca players and fans, it felt like it put the fear of God into PSG and just drained their confidence and belief. There’s an article by Gary Neville on the internet who was commenting on the game, he described it as some sort of surreal experience watching a ‘superior being’ just elevate his team when they needed him
If I was a goalkeeper, and I saw him receive the ball wide open in front of me, I would be nervous at how bad he would make me look, let alone score. As an older ex footballer and keeper, it's his curve, that everyone underestimates. When he shoots, the travels as if it's going wide from the goal, while it curves in, during flight, 2 meters away, before it goes in. So even if the keeper guesses correctly, the velocity of the ball, and it's curve will still bury the keeper. Watch his 1st goal with Miami 2,nights ago. The keeper was on his butt as Leo was shooting. 🇦🇷🐐🏆
@@JustineFwalanga Nazario is the only Ronaldo that is a 2 X World Champion, and WCup Golden ball MVP. Keepers and defenders were terrified of R9, because he could dribble and score solo gls, never tap ins. Also, his outside the box goals were some of the fastest shots. Very high goal conversion rate. Respect to R9 (2) WCups.
@@JustineFwalanga But he's no Messi. Even R9 went on interview in a video, and called Messi the Goat multiple times. He and Ronaldinho go only to watch Messi play, even today.
Put Messi in the team sheet right now against any team and they will fear. Still. He maybe older than before. But you just cannot take him away from the game. Man is unreal. He makes opposition look like fool. I am a Madrista but i know how mad Messi is.
Messi post 17 need a team to function around him, cover areas when he drops deep and press. But still bog games opponents humiliated them. 10-13 was best Messi
Prime Messi has murdered many defenders, after post mortem it was revealed that their bodies had dribbling marks all over.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The meatriding is insane
Unlike penaldogs
Its a fact@@alexcorrales7322
Thanks RUclips, every time I need a smile I watch highlights of Messi, even in the twilight of his career.

2010 March -2013 March not 09-12. I rate Xavi Hernandez best in 08/09 and 09/10 equally good as Messi.
What interesting about him is that goalscorring is not his best attribute, yet he is arguably the best at doing it.

Camparones del mundo

Messi destroyed Nesta and made him injured who is very close to Maldini in defending
2010 Nesta with modern foul rule. In 90s against prime defence rare chance. Nazario was even more talented him too was stopped many times
Messi still on his prime until now.. do you mean everyone's still feared of him?

You don’t hear players and coaches talk about other players like they do about Leo
An Angel sent by God to bring ❤and happiness to the world.
