Will Lionel Messi succeed in a physically intensive league like Premier League considering his age?

why on earth would anyone think that he can't perform there.

Just look at his statistics he is just too good for Premier league , People who says these kinda rubbish doesn't know football or living in a fairy world ,6 time ballon d'or and 6 time Golden boot doesn't come by mistake .

With 22 goals in the Champions League against English clubs, no player can get close to Messi's record. The only other player to have even reached double figures is Messi's great rival Cristiano Ronaldo, who has hit 12 goals in his 17 appearances.

Memorably, two of Messi's goals have come in the final itself. The Argentinian struck against United in the 2009 and 2011 finals, helping to down Alex Ferguson's side.

While his record against English clubs is now brilliant, this was not always the case - hence the questioning of Messi. He did not score or provide a single assist in his first nine appearances against English opposition.

Messi's tally against sides from a single country is only surpassed by Ronaldo's sensational total versus Bundesliga sides, the Portugal international netting a ludicrous 26 goals in 24 matches.

Arsenal are Messi's favourite English opponent. In his six career appearances against the Gunners, Messi has found the net nine times, including a four-goal return at Camp Nou in the quarter-finals in 2010 to help seal a 6-3 aggregate success.

Messi has only scored one other hat-trick against an English team. That treble came in a 4-0 thrashing of Manchester City in the 2016-17 group stage, the Argentina attacker in supreme form against former Barça boss Pep Guardiola.

We all know he is ageing but his goal contribution is greater than KDB (19–20 season )which is KDB's best stats of his entire life , though Messi didn't have good season he has far better and parmount goal contribution this season ,most in Europe .
