The seventh Ballon d'Or seems to be like a curse on Messi, a Portuguese psychic enthusiast said on social media that the number 7 is unlucky for Messi, although there is no scientific basis, but since winning the Ball of Gold, Messi's goal efficiency has dropped significantly, Currently averaging 0.14 goals per game, Ligue 1 currently has only 3 goals, including only 8 goals in the Champions League, which is the same as the past goals he scored, but Messi's other statistics are still very bright, but with the decline of physical fitness, Messi in order to continue the career to take a smart way of playing, he is no longer obsessed with scoring, but more threatening.
Who says Messi is regressing? Messi's assist stats are now at the top of Europe's assist list, messi delivered 12 assists in La Liga last season, but with seven rounds left in Ligue 1 this season, Messi's assists have reached 13 times, and what is even more amazing is that Messi's 3 goals and 13 assists have been achieved in the past 15 games, and the efficiency of making one goal per game is very high. And Messi has already scored two hat-tricks in Ligue 1, which is a record in Ligue 1 and the only player in Europe to achieve such an achievement, you think Messi regressed, believe it or not, his pass minutes let you break the defense.
This was done when Messi was unlucky, this season Messi has a total of 7 goals and 5 assists by the referee mercilessly blown out, plus 13 shots to the goal frame, if Messi's luck is better, or do not deliberately pursue the angle, must kill the corner, then Messi has most likely completed the double twenty achievement this season. Look, in the second game of Ligue 1, Messi is so close to the goal, but so far away, everything is almost lucky, two goals and one assist were ruthlessly blown away by the referee, which is regrettable.
Ligue 1's brutal style of play is incompatible with Messi's technical flow, and Messi also realizes that these gangsters will ruin their careers, and what if they suffer injuries, what will argentina as a whole do? Messi is currently the thigh of the entire Argentine national team, and he can't be injured like Neymar. The consciousness of these players in Paris is also too far from the former Barca teammates, Messi is best at cooperating with the wall of teammates, but the Pig teammates in Paris attack chaotically, do not call Messi at all, basically rely on personal ability to end the game alone.
So Messi began the transformation, he became the midfield master who is comparable to Modric and De Bruyne today, he can reduce his physical strength in the midfield, reduce the number of violations, his realm has become higher, he is no longer obsessed with scoring goals, the reason is to be a green leaf for his teammates, and use his imaginative passing to help his teammates get applause.
For Messi, 7 golden balls plus he has been in the historical position of one, he has no desire to compete, he has only one goal, for the people of Argentina, he is working for the coveted Hercules Cup, all the bad luck of the club, just because Messi is still ascetic for the World Cup, he is saving character, he is waiting for the moment to lift that golden trophy and crown the king.
