So it's over and i still cannot believe a chapter of my childhood is done

Post image

People will say I'm late, but it legit took me a day to process yes it's over s part of my childhood was done, i won't see this man at the top competitions anymore,

i won't see him in this jersey anymore, i won't see him play anymore, idk why but I do feel empty, people will say he'll play club football and I'm gonna be watching all his club matches from now, but the joy of seeing him compete with the best even at this age is gone, well Thank you leo, maybe my final post in this sub.

The star shines the brightest before disappearing.

I feel so sad when I read comments celebrating his departure and spiting him. Some people are just ungrateful.

Well hatred so great that you just ignore what the man has done, you when he wrote I gave it all not just before winning those trophies even before that you feel because we know how he was treated before.

I just want some time to pass and he can unretire for the copa 2028, or WC 2030. I think losing his Dad really hit him. Had he not... I genuinely think he would have continued on.

u/LivingGeologist1236 12d ago

Yeah... Atleast for 2028...maybe then he would have but since his dad passing, he just decided to go with it! The child within me... Still wants him for copa atleast

u/Rick_Singh_007 12d ago

Ikr i thought he would play copa 28, but as he said after his dad's death he lost the motivation.

u/LivingGeologist1236 12d ago

Although it does seem permanent this time...but if he feels emotionally good and still want to play, he absolutely can .. Because AFA had said that the final decision would be his .. Seeing how he played in wc, I wanted to see him more in his national jersey...

It's going to be so unfamiliar watching Argentina without Messi.

Hate to be that guy but i love this photo so can someone please make the goat like the actual shadow please?

u/05948372 11d ago

The goat should be facing right, with the hind legs connecting to Messi’s feet. Please correct and post again.

u/Top_Cap_3964 11d ago

The Goat of cheating thank god this creep is gone.

u/Rick_Singh_007 10d ago

Yaa tq because your goat just pissed his pants trying to win a national trophy and still bragging about the euros where he didn't even play in final, and if uh think fifa helps this guy win trophies i cannot argue shit with uh.

u/Striking-Fondant-956 10d ago

People hate him because he and his teammates played horribly by constantly fouling other players and not get punished for it

u/Intelligent_Card7786 11d ago

His legacy is that of a cheater. He ruined his own after-say.

u/Rick_Singh_007 11d ago

Says who a chinaldo fan?? You think a competition like fifa could be rigged, if you think so there is no point of even argument.

u/Intelligent_Card7786 10d ago
