And only time you can claim he was a underdog or had worse teammates is in 2014. Yet, he can't score a single goal?

Look at his 2007 (he was 20, but the true GOAT Pele was 17 in 58, also Messi was great untill the final that year) team compared to Brazil who beat them 3 goals to 0:

Overral: 1.26 goals per game in finals for both club and country

Messi: 0 goals per game and 0 assist per game for Argentina in finaks
Overral: 0.69 goals per game in finals for both club and country

A soccer Skip Bayless would say: "Messi just doesn't have the clutch gene Pele had". "Players like Pele and Maradona were assassins".

Brazil with Mineiro, Josue, Elano, Vagner and Julio Baptista as the 10 (he was no Pele, Zico, Rivelino, Ronaldinho), lol Brazil stars like Ronaldinho and Kaka in their primes chose not to play and Argentina lost yet again. :lol
