AyRcookieMessi is shit without Xavi and Iniesta! Also he used to take HGH.. lol
he took HGH cos he had an HGH deficiency, it's literally the medical treatment for it
it doesn't act as a performance enhancer when you're just bringing someone back to normal levels of it to stop all the shit that goes wrong when you don't have it
he was like 14 when he started it, and would've stopped when he finished growing (aka when the risk of developmental defects has passed) - i'm not sure what the rule is when it comes to getting a medical exception to a banned drug (aka HGH, and you can get such an exception) but he most likely hasn't needed HGH supplementation since he was like 18/19
i will agree that he's worse without xavi/iniesta but it's far from just those two that affect his play, and he's far from the only player to be affected in such a way. take any player from any of the best teams in the world and play them in a different role for a team they don't play with every day and you will see that they don't always perform as well
Okay, on top of that... He is (was?) under investigation for tax fraud... always blames his team mates/the pitch when he loses... oh and this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnesOQTbWeQ
