Leo Messi: Sittin’ On Top Of The World

This picture is only tolerable when listening to Brandy. Is Messi becoming the new Arshavin for awkward-loser photos?
In case you’ve been permanently stationed next to the fireplace with spiked egg-nog in hand, Leo Messi was named the world’s best by FIFA.
hes amazin way better than Ronaldo..even tho i support Real Madrid lol
hes kinda hot too
of course he’s on top of the world!!! he’s the best!!!!!!
much better that f******* Maradona if you ask me!!!!!
Agreed!
that is conclusive evidence that girls know shit about football
Have you not read the commenting rule before posting?? You obviously don’t belong here if you can’t snark with the best of us in a well behaved manner.
As an old timer here on kickette and there are others who will agree with me, including Malin (Hi darling!), your comment is not appreciated and will not be tolerated at least by us fabulous ladies. I suggest you come back when you can play nicely…….
*waves from her comfiest chair, stuffing her face with popcorn*
Hi C9 darling! You tell em girl!
Cheers gals! Nice to see everyone step in when required! xox
that’s a rather stupid comment to make on a female football site… *shakes head*…
excuse you??!!if we really knew ‘shit’ about football, then this FEMALE site would not be saying ‘for those who love the players as much as they love the game’.
Just try being kicked twenty times a game and having your legs broken, and after that impress me with your nice personality. Haters! Now I gotta leave, I’m getting a pink overdose.
Bye Bye Eugen, don’t let the door hit you on your way out!
*chuckles to self*
You obviously didn’t grow up around a tomboy or a girl who was sporty now did you?
I played football……broke a colar bone and a rib being kicked while on the ground protecting the goal and the ball (I was playing goalie), sprained both ankles numerous times and broke my right leg which now has pins in it. So don’t you go and act as if girls or women don’t play football and not get hurt!! I suggest your a**itude leave our site. We wouldn’t want you to get sick because of our good taste in color *shows tongue*!
REALLY, Eugen, you found that a wise comment to make at Kickette? A football site for women? Really?
I will lean back and watch you get ripped to pieces. Where is my popcorn?
Those tricks will not stop him from making a fool out of himself as a coach. He was great back then, but the game has evolved. He would not stand a chance with todays competition.
But Leo does…
I swear the funniest things on this site are the actual football comments.
Maradona has not been bettered yet. By anyone. He would be a top speed maximum vision dribling machine now as he was in his time.
i don’t think this messi’s pic is awkward….is cool despite the fact he wearing argentina’s kit….really just barcelona made him what he is
aww!! leo is so cute! he always points to the sky after he scores a goal!!
loff him!
It must have been free picture day at the childrens museum!!lol.
Aw, Messi! ♥
No one can take #1 awkward photo-taker away from Andrey though.
Awkward maybe but definitely not loser. lol
Maybe there is a Messi constellation in the sky and he’s pointing at it.
The only time Messi will ever be larger than something.
Sorry, had to throw that out there. I adore him, I really, really do – he’s an amazing, ultra-talented, mega-inspiring player. But I just had to make the comment. Couldn’t resist.
There can never be enough Messi. And thats all i´ve got to say about that.
Agreed =)
oh com’on girls! you can’t be serious!!!
you are tired of messi’s hype? what do you say about last year’s hype? cris was everywhere all the time and i heard no one complaining about that. is it just because cris is better-looking than messi?
if that’s the case, well, you are truly into footie only because of the beauty of the players. and that’s sad. i agree xavi is also a great player, just like cris, kaka, and a lot of others, so why don’t u give messi a break and let him enjoy the top position hype?
this is really not the case for me.. you couldn’t be more wrong.
Good for him he had an amazing season and all but he is all over the media for over a year now and it started to get annoying.
Um. I guess its because I am an environmentalist but I find this pic very offensive. Get your ass off my planet, Messi!
Seriously though. I am so sick of the Messi hype. This award shoulda gone to my Xavi bb and I just want this whole annoying episode to end. Just seeing Messi’s face raises my blood pressure several levels.
It’s really funny that he is wearing the Aregentina kit under the current circumstances. I much prefer Cris to Messi but I know Leo deserved the award over anybody this year. Maybe next year Cris!
Hm. It is offensive to me that he is wearing this kit. Barca made him what he is.
I can’t help but wonder if it’s a sponsorship thing. He’s an Adidas player, and Barcelona is a Nike club, yet Argentina is by Adidas as well.
this is an advertising type photo shoot there is a video on youtube (posted by ITN) and its an interview with messi and then he is getting his photo taken and all i can say about the hype is that it is well deseved as he is truely an amazing player. He doesn’t dive like a certain cristiano ronaldo in my opinion messi is ten times better than c. ronaldo
Congratulations to Lionel!
Glad that Cris won the best goal. It was cute in his speech that he said he didn’t expect to win anything that evening
That’s why I adore him so!!
are you kidding? of course he was expecting something–he thinks the sun shines out of his butt.
as much as i think CR has great skills, his ego is so unattractive. i am waiting for the day someone kicks him from the top in a serious hardcore way. (sorry to sound so mean, but i think it will do him some good)
Agreed i can’t stand Cristiano Ronaldo he is so arrogant and expects to win everything and then when he doesn’t win he has a face like he has just eaten a sour lemon
aw, i love little leo messi–he’s so cute. No one has room to talk–he has some amazing skills!
Aawww, thanks ladies for the reassurance that there is still a lot of Crissie haters out there
That means more Cristiano for me! Have a fabulous day……
i never said i hate CR! In fact, i would definitely put him over my knee and give him a good spanking if i had the chance
He just needs his ego deflated. I think CR also has great footy skills, but LM is stellar as well
And his short nerdy self is so endearing
Sorry Caitanya, but there’s a line for that, LOL
He is without question the best player on the planet and arguable of this generation of players… maybe Zadine beats him but not certain
really? are you comparing Zidane with this troll? it must be a joke
Yes, he does resemble Zidane. He is only a bit faster. Leo, that is.
WOW, they pulled all the PhotoShop skills out for this one ¬¬
omg when the Messi hype is going to end?
i didn’t know that other people think the same way as me, i’m pleasantly surprised
Really? You obviously do not watch much football.
