Trying a new metric accounting for lineup changes. Testing it on 21/22 Barca, all competition(where XG is available ofc) here are the results so far(ranked from highest to lowest)

10 games in and these are the results.

25 games in these are the results

21/22 season Barca players (Using RAPM , so adjusted for teammates in the lineup)

Will do this for 24/25 season too and compare raphinha, Yamal and Dembélé

I don't understand how anyone puts the blame on Messi, he generates lots of revenue for the club and peformed at the best player in the world level. It was Barca's fault for not managing the finances well.

To this day I cannot understand how he won it, I just don't see what they saw to give him this award

People know I use twitter but not ft or that I actually tweet actively

He could've been a legitimate T10 player of all time if not for injuries and his inconsistent lifestyle.

Messi 20/21 season btw

The Darwin Núñez paradox in one stat: 19.19 xG (Expected Goals) vs 11 actual goals in 23/24 . Is he wasteful for underperforming his xG by 8.19, or is his movement so elite that he's getting chances no one else can? The ultimate "eye test vs. data" debate. What do you think?

Need this LLF back for fun

Football fans don't like anything about football and it's very weird

That's a very false statement bcs they added some other players and lost some other players. Team isn't exactly the same as when he played yk. So argument invalid but once again I was right Abt my tweet that mbappe would be demonized if PSG won UCL after he left.

Is there an argument for Messi having 2 T5 peaks(peaks meaning at least 2 seasons at least) ?
