Just look at his goal highlight reels and you see many goals where he is facing with his back to goal then spins or does something out of this world. But that still isn't the point. Willy says (or i misinterpreted him) that Messi was a complete striker in which he isn't because he can't do the back to goal stuff and holding it up. Or be that guy to knock it down and be strong like Ibra/Drogba strikers. All top forwards can play with their back to goal. Just pull up an Messi video and see how often he gets his heels knicked at as he weaves around and lets players advance. Playing with your back to goal is not the same as playing target man. Sorry they are different things. And frankly by the standards you are applying there is no way anyone can really be a complete striker. The closest that comes to the standards you are applying is Ibra and as good as he is, he is not even close to as prolific so clearly being a complete striker means actually being less useful by if we were to apply these paramenters Does that make sense to you ? Still waiting on a response to Mcintosh's insinuation that PL defending is absolute garbage. | ||

That is what i was implying yes, no one is the complete striker because to be complete you need to be able to be the target man, play with your back to goal, hold the ball up. Then do what Messi Suarez and Ronaldo all do in one. Never will happen, reason saying he is complete is why i posted what i did. | ||

Wilfried Bony is set to have a medical at Manchester City tomorrow morning ahead of a move to the Etihad Stadium. They've really sold Bony for £30m. /respect | ||

I agree that Ronaldo is a more "complete athlete" than Messi, but Messi, imo, is a more "complete player". Messi has Xavi-level vision, Pirlo-level passing skill, and I'm not even talking about his finishing skills... Yes, he's small, but he's also a lot more difficult to stop than Ronaldo thanks to that. He's as fast, if not faster, with the ball, and he's so fast at turning around and arming his shots that he doesn't need a right foot... I agree that he cannot play like Drogba or Ibra, but except for counter-attacking/defensive teams, who plays 9 like this? Even Ibra isn't playing like this in PSG, he has freedom and plays like a false 9. There are so many other ways to use his talent, that we shouldn't even debate the case where he would have to play as a Drogba-like 9... Doesn't matter if he can't do the above. If my team had Ibra, Costa and Drogba I would trade all 3 of them for Messi in a flash. | ||
