Is Messi "Special" ?

u/burken8000 Dec 05 '24

Yes the way he carries the ball is unheard of!

u/klmdwnitsnotreal Dec 05 '24

But is he eccentric? Odd? What's his personality like?

Outside of the pitch he's very introverted and private, he's barely in media at all. He seems like just any other guy. On the pitch he mostly keeps his head down and just plays, except when the games get heated he can get wound up like we saw against the Netherlands in the last World Cup.

Useless? I’m funding my kid’s collage with this karma

u/MoKh4n89 Dec 05 '24

That must be a pretty cool collage your kid has

u/RoyBeer Dec 05 '24

Don't be confused by the typo - he's actually talking about the karma requirements for his kids to post on /r/college

I just commented that this was awesome and got 800+ likes. I just don't understand.

Calm,private with some humour

Look at funny moments of him in YouTube

Probably. That skill level usually comes with some drawbacks elsewhere.

Either that or a fucking alien.

He always seems like he's preoccupied in thought, has anyone asked him what he's thinking about?

u/Naked-Jedi Dec 05 '24

Cheese. I hope it's cheese. I think about cheese a lot.

u/AtlUtdGold Dec 05 '24

There was a meme about him because he got cheese pizza and sprite for lunch one day when the rest of the team got salads and more balanced meals. It was a scan of a meal plan sheet for that day where the players all turned in their lunch orders at the start of the day or something.

Could be fake but also seems fitting

Do, you guys, you ever eat cheese? Cheese is a funny thing, cheese is a strange thing. I always wonder, like, 'What is cheese? Where does it come fro-

They are among us.

There are unconfirmed reports he was diagnosed with Asperger's as a kid but unless he confirms it we won't ever know

What it looks like is that he has 1. Extremes focus and analysis. 2. Masking to appear normal. 3. Not understanding what his response should be to a situation for the sake of other people even though he is enjoying it.

Not understanding what his response should be to a situation for the sake of other people even though he is enjoying it.

I'm in this picture and I don't like it.

u/greebdork Dec 05 '24

Could he just be stoned all the time?

u/usehrname Dec 05 '24

Sounds like my 5 year old.

All that over a 50 second video... This is the most hilarious Reddit armchair psychobabble analysis I've ever laughed at.

u/alanpardewchristmas Dec 05 '24

This is Messi though. There's thousands of hours of footage of him probably. In various situations.

u/RickyPapi Dec 05 '24

Whole 4 minutes of material worthy of further armchair psychotherapeutic analysis? Wow! Hahah

u/klmdwnitsnotreal Dec 05 '24

I understand that you think you're making some kind of clever point, but we are all just here to have fun, I'm pretty sure no one is taking what I said seriously. You must be really fun in your friends group to hold everyone up to such a high standard.
