To be honest man, even winning 10 Copa America wouldn't heal losing the World Cup
World Cup is orders of magnitude more important. I don't understand why Messi doesn't want to play in 2018.
Also, fans received Messi with a shower of love, so maybe he'll reconsider it
Nathan Myers
Argentina doesn't deserve Messi.
Andrew Mitchell
Argentina going to repechage against Oceania winner and Messi returns, like Maradona did in 1993
Tyler Robinson
In his case, a shower of Rubik's cubes will be much more persuasive
Camden Ramirez
Why? He lost and we received him like a champion. People waited for him in the airport at 4am to cheer him up. All the way through Buenos Aires to Rosario there were messages for him. 1986 champions cheered him. Everyone unanimously agrees that we need him.
Liam Nguyen
shut up fatty
Levi Diaz
I like to think it was just because of the moment and he will come back
Michael Morris
He missed his best shot(no pun intended). The future doesn't look as bright and he just cba with all the pressure on him.
Cooper Scott
Spain certainly don't either.
Asher Ross
assuming its not kayfabe, he actually felt this cup was easy to get (it was), and he still failed, which means he has absolutely no chance at the world cup, so hes quitting
>only scored 16 goals in Serie A Why would they need him?
Ryder Ortiz
Argentina has a overload of strikers. And the funniest thing is they have played 360mins in 3 finals without scoring a single goal
Andrew Carter
I would have bet on Argentina winning the next World Cup if half of their team didn't retire. Often when teams choke so many times in a row they gain a special will power that eventually puts them through. But I guess they prefer to leave as losers.
Aaron Rodriguez
Didn't Germany lose a bunch a times as favorites before winning the WC in 2014?
Alexander Bennett
Messi is Colombian........... we got the papers.
Luke Perry
Lyonel Messy just doesn't have the clutch gene. He'll never win the big one and he sealed his own fate with that announcement. Ronaldo hasn't given up and he's on the wrong side of 30. WHAT'S MESSY'S EXCUSE? HE'S QUITTING ON HIS COUNTRY IN THE PRIME OF HIS FUCKING CAREER. LMAO
Asher James
Certainly not Spain, but Catalunya does.
Wyatt Cox
Yo Argenbros, you need to replace Messi's bitch with an actual woman or you're gonna lose him deeper in that cunt's manhole. She is taking your champion for a ride and toying with his shit, taking him for granted and if you do not act soon he will be destroyed. She is the enemy.
Gabriel James
oh boy
Nathan Reed
I was going to say something witty, but all that came to me were PTSD flashbacks
Carter Sullivan
The Euro > the WC
Tbh.
Except the next Euro. That's gonna be a rolling circus.
