Barcelona's Lionel Messi is on course to destroy a long standing record that had once been considered unbreakable: the 643 goals scored by Pele in his 18years at Brazilian club Santos.

With 643, Pele holds the record for most official goals scored for one club. Messi is at 617 now, 27goals away from setting a new record.

Until Messi's arrival on the scene, no player has seriously threatened to surpass the three- time world cup winner's Santos haul, amassed between 1956 and 1974.
Only Gerd Muller, who hit 565 goals for Bayern Munich from 1964- 1979, had come anywhere near the figure.

Considering his previous seasons, Messi could reach that milestone this season
2018/19 : 51 goals in 50 games
2017/18 : 45 goals in 54 games
2016/17 : 54 goals in 52 games

He should win the world cup as well. Pele won the world cup at age 18. Goat indeed

Frankly, it looks like almost every footballing record will belong to leo Messi by the time he retires. And when u put it like that, you understand how lucky we are to witness him play week in week out

pele's assurance on GOAT topic is the three world cup he won, but world cup trophy is a team achievement and not an individual achievement.

Take away Messi's goals, you have his assists, take away his assists, you have his dribbles, take away his dribbles, u have his passes, take away his passes, you have his vision, take away his vision, you have Messi, take away Messi, you have no football

Most of his goals are laliga's goals

This is a foregone issue but this German bomber is on every goal record.

Remove your head from messi's ass and you will see that football is much more than messi.
Messi is not even the greatest argentine footballer, Maradona is.

Messi's assists for Argentina alone is more than maradona's international goals�

Have you ever watched Messi's videos on YouTube? I used to hate this guy cos I'm a Manchester United fan.. But being a football player myself, I began to wonder how a player would have almost all the essential attributes shared between players on the pitch. He would dribble, give through balls(which involves a higher risk taking than sideway passes), and score amazing goals...Though been a Ronaldo lover, I realised watching videos of Messi online entertains me a lot..This midget is amazing.. I wish he wasn't this good
