kleverley:Do you know that Messi is the highest assists creator in the history of Argentina football? Surely you don't know! It is not helping the team Argentina because his team mates refused to have sense like Eder and Guedes for Portugal. But it has helped Messi himself personally because he has won 3 Golden Balls playing for Argentina. 1.World Cup Golden Ball. 2.Copa America Golden Ball. 3.Under 20 World Cup Golden Ball. So if his team mates in Argentina refuse to have sense that is not his cross to carry. 4 Likes |

1. Ronaldo De Lima 2. Ronaldinho 3. Lionel Messi 4. Zidane 5. Austin 'Jay Jay' Okocha 6. Cristiano Rinaldo 7. Andrea Pirlo (very underrated) 8. Marco Van Basten (oh! If not for a career ending injury..) 9. Paolo Maldini 10. Gianluigi Buffon Never judge footballers based on trophies won. Or should I start telling how Mikel is the most decorated Nigerian footballer ever? Does that make him better than Jay Jay? |

Fair enough list. I never knew CR7 fans were this ignorant, lambasting the OP as if it was a personal list, without knowing that the list was from one of the foremost sports magazine in the world. The simple truth is that Messi is a greater player than CR7 anytime anyday. Being a bit luckier to win certain trophies as part of a team effort does not invalidate the fact that Messi's individual efforts over the years trumps that of CR7. Pained CR7 fans are blind to this fact. In fact, I believe Ronaldo da lima should almost be at par with Messi given his truly magical abilities, while Cristiano drops to third at least for the sheer consistency of his goalscoring exploits over the years. 2 Likes 1 Share |

obidaddy: Why wouldn't the Premier League's greatest ever player make the list? Someone that it had to take a Zidane and a Ronaldinho to deny the World best player title on separate occasions. From 2003 - 2005, Thierry henry was the best striker in the world. The experts that placed Titi high in the list know what they are doing bro. 1 Like |

BroadStreetBull: What you're calling showboating is not.... what does he do that is not necessary for him to get pass a player/players/score/pass? Showboating that leads to results add to making a player great. Isn't Muhammed Ali the Greatest boxer?.... who ever showboated more than him? If you believe Messi is better... that's fine...you have the right to your opinion. I'm looking at reality.... without bias. |

BroadStreetBull: what sense are you talking about? because in the last world cup and copa america, the senseless teammates were the ones whose performances led the team to where they eventually crashed out of the various competitions whilst messi was blaming every tom,dick and harry |

Beverlyjean: Naa kaka shouldn't be there. Kaka's peak was shortened by injury. And didn't have any outstanding world cup tournament. No thanks to Brazil being mediocre at his prime in 2006 and 2010 world cups. Ahead of kaka was a certain Luis figo who should be in top-10. Figo was class (Top-5 to Top-10) for his last 5years in Barcelona and all his first few years in Real. His techniques were amazing. His crosses were are accurate as David Beckham and he dribbled as good as Zidane(believe it). Zidane had more tricks. But figo was more direct. 1 Like |

Originalsly:These are the elements; 1.Dribbling 2.Passing 3.Ball control 4.Showboating 5.Free kicks 6.Mazy runs 7.Nutmegs What area is Ronaldinho better than Messi? I loved Ronaldinhoo so much I never thought I'd ever love any other player as much as i did him, Until Messi came along. Strictly on the players that I watched live ONLY; GOAT 1 is Messi. GOAT 2 is Ronaldinho. I respect your opinion anyway, I still love it if you rate Ronnie over Messi. It's a win win for me. ![]() 1 Like |
