A few days ago, some media counted messi's goals scored before Christmas in various years, and after he joined Paris in the new season, he scored only 6 goals in all competitions, becoming his least one in the past 15 years. Messi's most goals forward at Christmas were 35 in the 2012-13 season, and 10 goals were also scored last year. So this year at Grand Paris only scored six goals, which is indeed the fewest he has scored in 15 years.
In addition, a careful analysis of Messi's goals scored before Christmas in each year shows that his data in the last 4 years has shown a clear downward trend, and it has plummeted continuously. Messi's Christmas forward goal in the 18-19 season was 25, followed by 15 and 10 in the next two seasons, and now for the first time this season, it has fallen below double digits, just 6. Many fans looking at this set of data should understand that Messi's poor performance in Paris this year is definitely not accidental.
Messi is a player born in '87 and is 34 years old this year. Whether Messi fans are willing to accept it or not, Messi's state has passed its peak and has long become an indisputable fact. Messi was able to win the Ballon d'Or this year, entirely because he led Argentina to the Copa America title. Without this honor, he was doomed to lose to Levan.
After joining Paris, Messi scored 6 goals in 15 games, and some fans analyzed that he was not satisfied. In fact, the real reason is that Messi has passed the peak period, and he cannot score goals in the game like before. Messi fans need to slowly accept the reality that the number of goals scored by idols is declining year by year, after all, the years are a pig-killing knife, and no superstar can escape.
Fans hope that after Christmas Messi will adjust to the best form and strive for more convincing performances in Ligue 1 and the Champions League in the second half of the schedule. Paris brought in Messi this season, mainly in the hope that he can help the team achieve their dream in the Champions League. Messi played very well in the Champions League, basically scoring goals on the pitch. I believe that as long as Messi continues to be in excellent shape in the Champions League, Paris should be able to realize the dream of winning the title.
