2005 Supercup Win
Can you remove the 2005 supercup win for Messi as he was not in any of the match day squad whereas Ronaldo didn’t receive the community shield win when he didn’t participate — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mohammadyunusp (talk • contribs) 21:08, 16 May 2019 (UTC)
- There has already been a discussion and a vote it regarding this issue, and it was decided that it should be included as his Barcelona profile and the Spanish Football Association page list the honour and he was part of the squad at the time even though he didn't participate in either leg of the final. The regulations in Spanish football are different to those in English Football, where at the time medals were only given to players included in the match-day squad for a specific final, hence why C. Ronaldo's Community Shield medal is not listed. Best, Messirulez (talk) 20:11, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
- I don't recall that being the result of the discussion. As I pointed out, Messi was not part of the Barcelona 'A' team at the time of the 2005 Supercopa (he wore #30, which indicated he was in the 'B' squad), so it doesn't make sense for him to be listed as a winner of a competition he wasn't considered part of the squad for. – PeeJay 16:35, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
- @PeeJay2K3: The 2005 Supercopa de España was played at the beginning of the 2005–06 season and Messi was a part of the first team, playing 25 games and scoring 8 goals that season. So there is no point in removing the medal. --Mazewaxie 10:50, 20 July 2019 (UTC)
- @Mazewaxie: I think you've got confused between "being in the first team" and "being in the A team". The Spanish league has very specific regulations about who is in a club's squad and what numbers they can be assigned. Messi was assigned #30 at the start of the season, which means he was officially in the 'B' team. This is supported by the fact that his number was changed midway through the season to #19, indicating his promotion to the 'A' team. Furthermore, he was not included in the matchday squad for either leg of the Supercopa, nor the first five matches of the La Liga season (see here), which suggests he was still on the periphery of the first team. The reason I bring this up is because if you assign the 2005 Supercopa to Messi, at a time when he was still in the Barcelona 'B' team, what's to stop you from assigning it to other 'B' team members? Or is Messi just a special exception? If the latter, that is a fallacy called special pleading and we should dismiss that idea out of hand. And if we include all the 'B' team members, why not include 'C' team members too? Since the Spanish league has such a clear squad system, I think it makes sense to limit assigning honours to just the 'A' team, and Messi wasn't in it. – PeeJay 13:12, 20 July 2019 (UTC)
- I mean if Barcelona official website and other reliable websites (like BBC for example) assign the cup to him I don't see the problem, there are reliable sources that support that. It's not like it has randomly been decided to assign the medal to him. He had already played 7 games with the first team in the previous season as well. I understand your point though. --Mazewaxie 13:19, 20 July 2019 (UTC)
- You say "it's not like it has randomly been decided to assign the medal to him", but that's exactly what is happening. Messi wasn't involved in the 2005 Supercopa in any way whatsoever, he wasn't part of the senior squad, and yet people have randomly decided to say, "Oh yeah, Messi definitely won that title..." – PeeJay 13:48, 20 July 2019 (UTC)
- Now that I checked he was on the first team that season, since he played his last game with the B team months before the Supercup, and, as you said, he changed is number midway through the 2005–06 season. You can't say that "people have randomly decided to say", because sources support this. Messi was part of the first team, it's not like he only played with the B team at that point. He played with both. --Mazewaxie 13:59, 20 July 2019 (UTC)
- Are the sources not written by people? Clearly people have "randomly decided" that the honour should be given to him because there's nothing to back it up. Nothing. And yes, he played with both teams, but he was registered as a player of Barcelona B. He was of course eligible to play for Barcelona A - that's how the Spanish league registration system works - but he was officially a B team player at the time of the Supercopa. – PeeJay 14:38, 20 July 2019 (UTC)
- He was officially a first team player too at the time of the Supercopa, since he debuted in 2004. --Mazewaxie 14:47, 20 July 2019 (UTC)
- Not "officially", no. As I have explained, 'A' team players in Spain have to wear numbers 1-25, but Messi wore #30, which denotes him as a 'B' team player. He was not "officially" part of the 'A' team until his number was changed to #19 in January 2006. – PeeJay 14:51, 20 July 2019 (UTC)
- Should be removed as he was not in the matchday squad. Was discussed at Bale and Ronaldo with the result being removed, and i think it was the same here. Kante4 (talk) 16:51, 20 July 2019 (UTC)
- There has already been a discussion, and more people voted to keep the 2005 Supercopa title in his list of honours than those who voted to remove it, so I think that the case is closed. You can look it up in the archives if you don't believe me. We've already discussed the issues with using the shirt numbers as proof that he wasn't part of the first team, as there isn't any information from reliable sources which confirm that permanent first team members wore shirts 1–25 in Spanish football, even though Messi did wear the shirt number 30 during the 2005–06 season. It is known however that Messi had already signed a professional contract with the club at the end of the 2004–05 season. The official organiser of the competition also credits him with the medal, so I feel like it is difficult to argue with that, even though it is unusual for him to receive a title in which he did not appear and for which he was not called up. Best, Messirulez (talk) 14:49, 25 July 2019 (UTC)
- Okay, look, I know it's weak evidence as I don't have access to the La Liga regulations on squad numbers, but I've scanned through La Liga squad lists from the last 20 years or so, and there has never been a first-team player who wore a number higher than 25 unless they were able to be registered as a 'B' or 'C' team player. As I pointed out, Messi's number was changed midway through the season in 2005-06, which indicates a change in his squad status, as he wouldn't have otherwise been allowed to do that. The squad number rules aren't the same in England, but the same sort of thing happens with leaving talented youngsters out of the registered 'A' team because it frees up a spot in the squad for another more experienced player. I'm sorry you've not come across this rule before, but it does exist and it is evidence that Messi was not part of the Barcelona 'A' team at the start of 2005-06, and hence shouldn't be attributed with having won the 2005 Supercopa. – PeeJay 12:39, 26 July 2019 (UTC)
- I just want to clarify that I don't disagree with you, and generally I would agree that a player who doesn't appear in the competition shouldn't be credited with the title, but in this case as the official organiser of the competition credits him with the title, I feel like that's the best information we have. And unfortunately on here we need to have things cited reliably, which can be frustrating when one knows something to be true, but when one cannot find a source to back in up.

Honours
![]() | This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request. |
Messi's Honours in his infobox should labeled as "Winner" or "Runner-up" if he won or lost a competition, not with medals, that is, unless he achieved third with Argentina in a competition, which should be labeled as "3rd" not "B" for Bronze. The medals should be used only if he won competitions such as the Olympics, PanAmerican Games, etc, and should be labeled as "G" for Gold, or "S" for Silver, not 1 or 2. 2601:8C:C201:A2CF:30E2:EC97:18B3:95DC (talk) 22:30, 14 September 2019 (UTC)

Hi am Philip Mwas requesting correction of the superclasico de las Americas .It's a friendly but with high importance that calls for honors. Previous winners have these honors acknowledged and so should be for Lionel Messi. Philip Mwas (talk) 07:59, 16 November 2019 (UTC)
I like the idea but that tournament isn’t as important as others like the World Cup. Messi is too big of a player to be acknowledged for a smaller tournament. FluffSquad (talk) 13:30, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

Appearances
You need to change Barca appearances to 700 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.25.48.29 (talk) 07:32, 28 November 2019 (UTC)
- You're going to need to be more clear about what exactly you're referring to. The infobox at the top of the page only counts league appearances, and the stats table at the bottom already shows him having made 700 first-team appearances for Barcelona. Did you not think that perhaps because of the huge discrepancy between the infobox figure and the total there might have been something you didn't understand. Jesus, I despair sometimes. – PeeJay 07:50, 28 November 2019 (UTC)

Addition of categories
The following categories should be added to the footer as he has been convicted on multiple accounts of fraud, which is alluded to in his article - http://bbc.com/news/world-europe-40534761
Argentine criminals or Argentine fraudsters or white collar criminals. Considering he is a dual national of Spain and Argentina since 2005 (Source), he should also have Spanish criminals or Spanish fraudsters added. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ArcturusaAlgebra (talk • contribs) 10:06, 4 December 2019 (UTC)

2005 Spanish Super Cup
As there is an edit war going on here. A couple of points:
- trophy counts based on club counts are in Shaky ground and we know it. But as the "lie" has now been so oft repeated as to be quoted by pretty much every reliable source as a fact, his absence in the two legs is moot. Per prior discussions - the reliable sources say he "won" it. There are no sources that exclude it that I can find.
- as the Supercup is based on qualification from the prior season and Messia had appeared for the team and scored, he might / is likely considered by Barcelona to have contributed to their appearance in the Supercup, regardless of if he was in the game squad.
- If Barcelona are the arbiters in this situation, then the answer is Messi won it. If the arbiter is the Spanish FA then someone would need to find their official records of who won it as part of the Barce team. I suspect it is the former.
- I am not sure on registration laws, but at the time of the Supercup - Messi's appearances may have been restricted due to him not getting his Spanish nationality until the 26th of September. I am not sure if this functionally stopped his appearances entirely for the club, or if this was just an exclusion/ observance to avoid issues with too many foreigners. The sources provided are dead so unable to verify what the exact problem was and haven't had chance to find better ones.
In conclusion; the answer is to err on the side of reliable sources even if it doesn't appear right. The second answer is to try and get clarification from Spanish FA or Barce directly as to what the criteria for inclusion was / is. May even be worth sending an email to a Catalan journalist who may be able to assist / verify the status by checking their archives. Koncorde (talk) 14:59, 21 April 2020 (UTC)

"Cuccitini" is part of his name only in Spain
Lionel Andrés Messi is his official birth name, the one that appears in Argentine government databases: [1] [2]. Lionel Andrés Messi Cuccitini is his name only in Spain for legal purposes, because in Spain it's customary to use two surnames. Even in Spain, when he had just arrived, they only used one surname for his temporary permits: [3]. Since Lionel Andrés Messi rarely (if ever) uses that surname, and it's only seen in rare instances (usually when a third party manages his affairs in Spain), his official birth name should be respected. This is why for international football purposes he is still officially Lionel Andrés Messi: [4][5]. Arubaslegy (talk) 22:26, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
August 2020: Desire to depart from FC Barcelona
Hi @RossButsy: I see that you have reverted my edit. I'm hoping that we can discuss your reservations with it. Happy for others tracking this article to weigh in as well!
In your revert comment, you said, "yeah no this doesn’t need to be here. If messi and the club haven’t confirmed it like you said then there’s no need for it to be here. “Associated press” not everything the press says is true."
My edit looked like this:
August 2020: Desire to depart from FC Barcelona
On August 25, 2020, the Associated Press published a piece where FC Barcelona confirmed, "that Messi sent the club a document expressing his desire to leave." The Associated Press indicated that, "the club hinted that a legal battle could be coming and said it won’t automatically grant the Argentina great his wishes. Barcelona said it told Messi in response that it wants him to stay and finish his career at the club."[2] Messi, his entourage, nor the club have confirmed terms for his departure.
This edit does not make a claim about his departure, but rather a desire for departure. I made this distinction in order to avoid misleading the reader. The Associated Press is quite a reliable news source. They have quoted representatives from FC Barcelona confirming "that Messi sent the club a document expressing his desire to leave." I do not understand your concern with regard to AP's reliability. Could you elaborate on your concern? This news isn't a typical silly season tabloid piece. This is a serious news organization directly quoting the club.
What specifically about this edit do you see as inaccurate, or a disservice to the reader? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts! Cheers Tjbakerscala (talk) 15:50, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
@RossButsy: I see that you have reverted another user's edit about the same subject without discussing on the talk page. Your comment with that revert was, "'Allegedly' have a day off pal." Please refrain from non-constructive reverts and discuss your concerns here. There is nothing "alleged" about the fact that the player has expressed desire to leave. He has, and his club have confirmed that. Tjbakerscala (talk) 19:29, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
Where have they confirmed it? Show me the direct statement from the club website then mate. Stop linking stuff espn articles that stuff doesn’t really cut it anymore. RossButsy (talk) 19:43, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
I mean the article you’ve linked has tabloid stuff like “the divorce could turn ugly” I mean don’t be ridiculous haha. Just cause the likes of guillem balague say it doesn’t make it true rudeboy. RossButsy (talk) 19:46, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
- @RossButsy: In cases such as this, where a player has expressed a desire to leave their current club, the club very infrequently makes a public statement to that effect. It's not usually in the club's interest to make public statements on their own website about their players wanting to leave. AP is a highly reputable source. I have not linked to an ESPN source, as you have suggested. I agree, that journalism is has been plagued by fluffy nonsense since journalism began. But the concrete fact is: "Barcelona confirmed to The Associated Press that Messi sent the club a document expressing his desire to leave." AP would run the risk of libel for running this in their piece if it wasn't accurate.

- Ahhh I understand, @RossButsy: Thank you. And the same to you! And yeah, for sure. Very excited to see if he leaves, and to where! Cheers Tjbakerscala (talk) 00:14, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
