Is Messi finished?

Appreciate this is a necro but as of now surely he's finished internationally, obviously perfect timing to bow out after winning the WC.

His performances have shown he's still a top, top player so will probably play a couple more easy seasons at PSG before going to China or somewhere mad to earn £100 million a week.

Personally I think he's the best player to have ever played and without being juiced to the gills.

Definitely Messi > Ronaldo for me now. Not that I think the World Cup should really be all that critical, but it's the greatest prize in the sport.

Messi is operating at the very highest level and Ronaldo has fallen off a cliff and embarrassed himself one too many times.

Not that Ronaldo's career achievements should be diminished, he used to be right up there with Messi.

If I think back over the last 15 years, the wow moments have often been watching Messi in the Champions League, when he used to just destroy teams with ease. It's like Federer v Djokovic, natural elegance vs athletic power (as fez said in the Messi v Ronaldo thread, which I've hesitated to bump :p).

He's as good a playmaker as you'll see, and rarely makes the wrong decision.
 
laugh emoji all you want. you closed the thread in some weird huff and tried to blame it on me taking the pee out of sonny. i see you're still prone to lying......'convinced i had some hidden agenda to protect messi' now that is laughing emoji worthy.

Ah man, lets not. Going over this once with you was bad enough. The thread was closed as it ended up with wild nonsense and people mocking one member - for some reason you didn't and don't believe me and accused me of having ulterior motives. To this day I have no idea what those motives were.
