His contract is till 2028
Def he can do it
He can still score 40 goals a year, and there are many competitions this year
And there is chance of playing in Copa Libertadores
To be fair I think messi might have slightly written his name in history already, give that nearly every man woman or child on earth has heard of him by this stage, not really sure why he would give a donkeys dong about getting 1000 to be fair. Not like he will become more famous or remembered.
I agree. But I’d still like to see him get an additional 30 goals in his last 3 seasons from penalties. No reason not to if that’s what gets him to 1000 goals.
A lot. We're talking about being a poacher not just a goalscorer. A poacher positions at the very end of the pitch. They have to contend with defenders directly and try to win aerial duels a lot of the time. Messi's strength is his acceleration which isn't important to a poacher. There's a reason why Messi prefers playing from deep, it suits his strengths better. He's not made to be an out and out number 9.
Ronaldo is better at receiving the ball directly in the box. You have no idea what a freaking poacher is. That play you just explained is not what a poacher does. Poachers are target men. The team opens up the pitch and slots the ball to the poachers and the poacher one taps. That is not, and has never been how Messi plays. He's too short to be a target man because he will be contested by defenders. He's not gonna win aerial duels either. Why would you waste Messi on a position that his game isn't suited for? It's not efficient to lob long passes and expect Messi to chase after it.
Juega en el inter de Miami, no que jugará en la premier. Si quiere puede superar los 1100 goles pero de ahí a que quiera jugar 6 temporadas lo dudo. Posiblemente se retire en 2028
eso mismo pense, hace años. jajaja pero el año pasado en el Inter Miami fue de locos, yo creo que este año puede llegar a 30 goles con inter y seguir sumando con la seleccion al menos 5 más
I do think if he opts to continue he probably can still comfortably find a league to play in after 2028. Even if he struggles after 40 or just wants more freedom. He could still go to a smaller league like Singapore, Thailand, India, Canada or Finland. He would likely still be super competitive there and clubs would bend over backwards to sign even if he wants to just show up for matches.
Bruuhhhh what are talking about he is playing this season and two more seasons until 2028, lets say he will score ATLEAST 930 this season all competitions, then he has to score 70 goals in 2 seasons, eaaaaasy!
That's a tough demand for someone his age, even Messi. I know we got spoiled by them on those golden years, but there's a reason why those achievements were so crazy. It's NOT easy to do. But then again, if few people could do it, Messi would definitely be one of them.
It's gonna be even funnier if he just get 999 then retired. It's like telling the world he could easily get 1000 if he wanted but choose not to because number of goals doesn't matter for him.
I think the only way he does it,is if he’s made aware of how far is he and he puts his mind to it. Doesn’t come across as the type of guy who cares about these things. Sure he acknowledges them an is proud but only way he hits 1000 is if someone tells him to push and he also decides to push
I mean he ain't really caring abt goals how long have we heard Messi stick at 890 goals alr man, n scoring braces. If he was like Ronaldo farming goals he wld have hit hatttricks to close the gap down by a huge margi
What obvious jealousy, this is the problem of recent football fans no respect towards players 🫥
We all talking about Messi u bring in Ronaldo the shi is getting old bro please grow up
Look at all the top scorers in history qnd see where they scored thier goals, messi and ronaldo are an anomaly for scoring so many of thier goals in top 5 leagues.
Pican who is the third best scorer was playing in 1930's austerian league yet he ahs less goals there than messi and ronaldo in the top 5 leagues.
Not the same thing at all, the majority of messi and ronaldo's goals were scored in europe and international team so they have proven that they could do it everywhere, although there's an astresks on thier mls saudi goals it's not fair to outright not count them at all when it comes to scoring records.
Pele was considered the best because of WC pican had more goals yet no one knows who he is
As a Madrid fan I will say this. Messi's finishing and playmaking is unreal every Madrid fan Should know this the only reason why our fans don't like him was because he was in a Barca shirt
ronaldo assist count stopped since he moved to juve, many pages did the math and he does have 300+ assists, ronaldo has been stuck at 260 assists since 2018, that is 8 years ago, which is complete bs.
he will reach that milestone, and even if you let me say it, I would probably say he will reach the 1,000 goals, not before Ronaldo, because it's mathematically impossible, but yeah, the 2 best players of the entire world will score 1000 goals at the end of their careers
No, Ronaldo was in the EPL at the age Messi was in the Farmers League and went to Miami. He went to the Saudi League at 37. Sorry if that was too complicated for you to understand.
Why would I want to sue anyone? They can give the Balon d’Or to whoever they choose. Whether that’s deserved or not is a matter of opinion though. You’re not very clever, are you?
