Dont look too far, Ronaldo is better than him. Ronaldo has proven himself in England, Spain and Italy. Let Messi do the same.





If your head cannot understand that
CR7 is the G.O.A.T with 774 Goals, how can your head handle the Jamaican weed I smoke undecided

someone told me you are a fool but I was arguing not knowing you are more than a fool.

Did you know that MESSI has more goals than Ronaldo against England top 6.
MANCHESTER UNITED, MANCHESTER CITY, CHELSEA, ARSENAL, LIVERPOOL AND TOTHEHAM.

without playing in that league compared to Ronaldo than spend more than 3 seasons there.

Happy for Messi...

But Barca is just another Arsenal of Spain...

I still don't understand why Koeman sold Suarez citing that Suarez left because he wasn't willing to prove himself.. Like WTF does he have to prove when his records speak for him...

You want Messi to remain at the Club yet you keep letting go easily all his best friends on and off the field..

All these new armature coaches that are forming professional last last body go tell them.

Lampard, Koeman, Arteta, your days are all numbered..

Modified: I didn't include OGS because he hardly has issues with any of his first team players, even as difficult as Pogba is to manage he still tries to manage him.. He gives every player chance to play without freezing out anyone citing a personal or footballing reasons like Lampard did with Giroud, Arteta with Ozil and Koeman with Suarez..

the last time I check Ronaldo miss a penalty that was supposed to win juve the game.
Another record broken by Messi which will take a centuries to break. Messi have about 3 centuries record on ground which might not even been broken till eternity. I guess ur Ronaldo don't even have record that can stand for 20yrs without seeing anyone that can break the record.

Messi has made sure no other good striker lasts in Barcelona so that he keeps collecting everything.

you are really a kid who knows just Messi and never found time to research the players you compared to Messi above

I use to think Maradona was an averagely good player who only shone at Mexico 86, pulled a fluke at the world cup against England with that lucky dribble and managed to win the world cup until I watched multiple documentaries on Diego Maradona - The attack and assault Diego faced on the field of play without referee protection, If Messi faced 1/10th of it he will be long retired since 2010. These days, ordinary slight body touch a player gets a yellow card or even red card, when Maradona was destroying defenders and scoring amazing goals, a player can only earn a red card if he strikes a blow to your face - every other tackling including pushing, slide tackle from behind, knee hacking, jersey pulling etc were almost always acceptable and the crowd will have to boo and scream for the referee to warn the offending player. IT WAS LIKE WRESTLEMANIA.

SAME GOES FOR PELE - Do you know the RED and YELLOW card was ONLY introduced to the 1970 Mexico World Cup? Which was Pele's last world cup? So how did the likes of Garrincha, Revelino, Eusebio, Zagalo, Pele, Bobby Charlton etc survive merciless tackles? To call Messi or even CR7 the GOAT is an insult to these greats who never got the referee protection that made Messi and CR7 win multiple WPOY awards.

I was one of those who underrated Pele and called it all hype based on the stories I heard of his exploits until I watched hours of his documentary. If Pele could be made a 26 year old again today, with exactly the same ability he had in 1966 - He will be a Ballon D' Or winner over Messi and Ronaldo and Lewandowski. PELE will dribble defenders so smoothly and neatly that they wont even see him to kick or push, and it was so effortless - He is the greatest passer of the ball (same with Maradona) and his freekicks and finishing are terribly amazing !!!! I conceded just last week that PELE was indeed the greatest and Diego is the co-greatest. NO ONE, I REPEAT NO ONE SHOULD EVER COMPARE MESSI WITH PELE OR MARADONA. Messi and CR7 became great by referee protection, not so with Pele and Maradona, they battled opposing defenders kicking and fighting them with the referee turning a blind eye!!!! grin

Kid? I probably started watching

Though i'm a CR7 fan , sentiment aside , messi is amazingly unbeleivable.... Congratz dude. Hopefully , Arteta , koeman and Franc Lampard keep their jobs. GGMU / OGS.

How manyvstrukwrs have played for a club for so long?? When a fantastic striker changes teams , it slows his goal scoring abilities by at least a year ... ronaldo has more club goals despite change teams 3 times...

Lionel Andres Cutticcini Messi, Congratulations on another milestone. You are the Greatest Footballer of All Time. Your status as the GOAT is not really defined by whether you break Pele's goal-scoring record or not. Those are mere statistical aesthetics. Your position at the summit had been long sealed by your incomparable talented displays, impact and all-round abilities demonstrated consistently for over a decade and a half.

You are Messi. You strike fear into the heart of defenders like no other player ever such that they always swarm around you in threes and fours, yet your brilliance still shines through time and time again. If football were to have a face, it would be you. If all footballers were to have an highlights reel of their magical moments on the field, perhaps Pele may have a good 75-minutes show, Maradona/Ronaldo De Lima may perhaps have an hour and a half of true brilliance on display, but yours would outspan these your closest competitors by at least the duration of a full football match.

A record number of the world player of the year is testament to your individual supremacy, which is all that matters in the end.

Shine on King Leo.
. Good morning, you are still trying to compare him to true legends , Messi is good but comparing him to Pele makes him look poor, Pele can't compare himself to Messi, that's absorb OK, Messi should continue comparing himself cos whosoever you want to be like, you imitate and aspire to be like. NB, FIFA, BBC confirmed that Pele is the greatest when it comes to the leather round-object game, thank you.

kindly share peles all time assist and lets compare..if messi was all about overwhelming other strikers how come he has provided more assist to those same strikers than they've assisted him? Think think!!!

Messi's assist rate is out of the world..messi will create the most assist and still outscore the same people he is assisting..

Messi and CR7 became great by referee protection, not so with Pele and Maradona, they battled opposing defenders kicking and fighting them with the referee turning a blind eye!!!! grin

Hmm, where do I start from. First I ain't a kid. I probably started watching ball earlier than you since you said you thought Maradona was an average player. At least I had known he was head and shoulders above his peers since 1994.

While you have put up a number of reasonable points in your post, permit me to correct some over exaggerations. First, it is a misconception that the quality of defending is based on the frequency of rash tackles made. In many African countries today, those sort of tackles you described are still common with poor pitches. Yet when these rugged African teams take on a a Manchester City, they'd still get walloped 7-0 with a Raheem Sterling probably scoring a brilliant solo goal amidst the rough tackles.

Elite defending takes more than rough tackling. Until the 1990s when player fitness levels improved due to technological advancements, the level of defending was not as good, as defenders where slower then and typically left more spaces in between. They try to make up for this defect with last gasp rough tackles. I watched many of Maradona's games (recorded tapes) for Napoli. Teams were not parking the bus against him, so most times defenders approach him individually and get rough on him. Messi has faced a whole bus parked defence in over 70 percent of the games he played. Watch Maradonas goal of the century and Messi's similar goal against Getafe. You'd notice that the English defenders were slower and Maradona eliminated them one after the other, but in Messi's goal there were two markers on him at the same time on at least two occasions, so he had to dribble faster than Maradona, to break through.

And while it is true that red and yellow cards were introduced in Mexico 70, players had always been cautioned and sent off long before but by word of mouth from the referee. Placindo Galindo of Peru was the first player to be sent off in a world cup match in 1930. So the card thingy does not imply anything of note in this debate.

Talent will always be talent and will stand out regardless of the era. Personally I believe Messi especially the (2008 - 2013) version will make a mince meat of the sub-par defending of the 60s to the 80s, regardless of the rough tackles. FYI, I hold Pele and Maradona in high esteem and have never underrated them. And I have stated many times here that I consider Messi, Pele and Maradona as equals and nickname them the three GOATs on the basis of their supreme talents.
