We Are Very Confused By Messi's New Tattoo

Messi used to have an intricate sleeve tattoo on his shin. Remember that?

Now, he has something very special and different: a black thing. We really can't think of a name for it. It is black. It is very black. It covers almost his entire lower leg (he kept the number 10 and some other stuff).

Messi Scored His 500th Barcelona Goal

Lionel Messi is hitting milestones so fast he's running out of milestones to hit.

If Messi Is So Timid How Come He Tried To Fight A Manchester City Player?

Two-time World Cup winner Daniel Passarella, a center back on Argentina’s triumphant 1978 and 1986 squads, recently called out Lionel Messi for what he perceives to be a weakness in the captain’s leadership qualities: “The leader of the group is something different to the way you play and the talent of each player. I admire Messi, but I think his personality, his way of being, is withdrawn and timid.”

Honestly, where do people get this s***.
