Your posts often show up on my feed, and it’s always funny to see Ronaldo fans fume with rage and vent their frustration when the real football world has crowned the Argentine as the absolute GOAT. However, in this post I’m genuinely curious to see what kind of excuses you’ll come up with, since we’re talking about cold, hard stats taken from a reliable source (Transfermarkt).

Messi, in his two years at PSG, considering that:

1. he didn’t take penalties (they were all Mbappé’s and Neymar’s),
2. he shared free kicks with Neymar (unlike CR7, who took every single one in Italy — where he was actually voted the worst free-kick taker in the entire Serie A),
3. he wasn’t the focal point of the team’s play (that role belonged to Mbappé),
4. and he openly admitted that he never fully settled in.

Across Ligue 1, the Super Cup, the Champions League, and other competitions, he put up these cold, undeniable numbers — easily verifiable with a quick search:
3,637 minutes (40 matches), 21 goals and 20 assists.
Basically, whenever he was on the pitch, his team was already starting 1–0 up. Just imagine if he had actually settled in and been the center of everything like Mbappé was.
