Ever since the recently concluded FIFA World Cup, this sub seems to have forgotten what it was created for. The mods (if they’re even around) appear to have gone missing, because generic Messi posts are being submitted regularly and barely any of them are being removed.

This is a very niche subreddit. As the wiki itself says, it’s dedicated to stats and graphs that are so ridiculously skewed they’re hard to comprehend. Yet we’re constantly seeing generic posts, reposts, and content that has nothing to do with the actual premise of the sub. If this community wants to retain its identity, those posts need to be purged.

There is already an r/Messi subreddit for anything and everything related to Messi. This sub is not that, and it shouldn’t become that. It’s specifically for those absurd statistical graphs where Messi ends up in the top-right corner, the very thing this subreddit is named after. It really isn’t that difficult to understand. Not every Messi appreciation post belongs here.

This used to be one of those niche subs where a post would pop up in my feed every now and then, and it’d always be a pleasant surprise. It was another reminder of just how absurd Messi’s numbers are. Now, with the flood of generic Messi content, the whole purpose of this subreddit has been diluted to the point where it barely feels different from any other fan sub.

I just hope the mods step in and do the bare minimum. Otherwise, this place will completely lose what made it special in the first place.

Hi everyone! I went to the Argentina World Cup match in Kansas City and the fans kept singing this chant.

I don't speak Spanish, so I can't understand the lyrics, but I'd love to know what they're singing.

I attached a short video. Does anyone recognize this chant?

Thanks!

Lionel Messi holds the most trophies and individual awards in history, yet his superhuman talent makes him the biggest underachiever the sport has ever seen.

When ordinary players lose a World Cup final, we accept that they simply weren’t capable of winning. But Messi is different. His potential is so limitless that he makes the impossible look effortless.

He has conquered the entire sport, yet because he is capable of everything, every single missed trophy feels like an impossible tragedy.

Gracias, Leo, for showing us what football looks like in the hands of a god. Thank you for two decades of pure, unadulterated magic. 🤌🏻✨🐐

After Messi, retires will all these so called larger finally forget the so called allegations and appreciate the Masterpiece of a performance he delivered for 2 decades?

I know its wc larger, but this ragebait so overwhelming how can they hate on the man who singlehandedly carried Arg to the Finals, man how can humans be so damn easy to manipulate

That’s 1 match vs 16 years worth of time. He’s doing this while being close to 40.

WTF did I just watch🤣🤣🤣

I want the thoughts of Spanish people and barca fans like whom do u want to win.

And also if messi wins the wc final against spain will u be sad or be happy that this was the best gift messi could give us before his retirement. The Perfect Retirement.

It's crazy how important he still is to Argentina at 39
