Legends Talk About Lionel Messi! 

all the greats think messi is the best except a handful of bitter players putting ronaldo ahead. i would not put ronaldo higher than ronaldhinio

Both Messi and Penaldo are good scorer but most of Messi's goals are miracles, furthermore Messi more than just a good scorer, he is good in every aspects of football.

I mean its true , zlatan's ego is huge , for him to say that , means something big Not to mention Messi stole all of his spotlight back then in barca lol

@@runthatback323 not messi. Pep’s ego stole his spotlight

Messi is not the greatist team player. Maradona made other players shine. Messi makes them stare.

Yaah you just nailed it Messi is a combination of both Talent and Hard Work. Oh my goodness the guy is just a marvel to watch, I love Messi.

Are you a retard? Hard work never ever beats talent If you were born to play football or to be a singer, you will always be better than someone who started from the bottom but worked really hard. Same with bodybuilding, no matter how hard you work, you will never get to the olympia stage unless you have god tier genetics Or intelligence, no maytter how hard you study or learn, someone with an higher IQ who doesnt study at all will get better grades Genetics beat hard work 100 out of 100 times, idiot

True

lmao true Messi is the only person who can humble Zlatan a bit

Him and Henry were scared. No laughs, no jokes. Like Zlatan knew that his only "move" to be #1 striker in a team was to leave Barca. And that's what he did.

Yep agreed.

Totally. He’s a beautiful player.

Lmao 🤣

Once Messi made his debut, it didn’t take up to 2 seasons for commentators all over Europe to start tipping him for the Balon d’Or and “he will be one of the greatest of all time”. It was clear for everyone with a pair of functional eyes and brain.

@@cyrilebeh1363 The same only happend with Pele, Maradona and Ronaldo R9. So Messi is among the greatest of all time.

🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

@@cyrilebeh1363 That's what's crazy. We saw him on the screens at 17 and at 19 commentators were already putting him next to cruyff and Maradona. 15 years later, he also turned out to have the best longevity of all of these players. Sure, he's not as fast as he was, but he aged like fine wine, kinda like becomming a grand master of the game. His technical ability is unmatched. What a man.

And Kobe for being fluent in 11 languages and casually handling interviews in almost perfect Spanish

tbf he said he will be the best in the world, but yh

@@urstube6901 he said he will be the best of all time, a very different claim

​@@urstube6901😂😂😂❤

Cant compare Messi with Maradona and or Pele, different times, but those who witness the magic of the 3 will chose O rei Pele. I am from Argentina I was crazy about Diego never thought a better player will exist, until I saw Messi But again, great professional players, icons of Argentine football some of them say Pele was the perfect footballer

Messi is definitely the best to ever do it. Getting past 3 to 4 defenders every night, scoring, assisting, etc. It's like a video game to him

@@bullsharkdb I am also from Argentina, and Pele is the most over rated player in history. he's not even the best player Brazil has had. Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Romario, Rivaldo, etc. have all been much better than Pele. But the undeniable fact is that Messi and Maradona are the two greatest players in the history of football.

@@Liquidcadmus Undeniable for WHO? The most over rated player in history? That is a subjective matter, impossible to measure due the obvious differences amongst key factors regarding the sport. What you could do, is asking Brazilians. with strong references of Pele, otherwise research what professional Brazilian footballers and managers think about Pele and the players you mentioned. I am sure they will laugh in your face, the least. Even the British magazine listed Pele way above your favorite ones. No hagas el ridiculo, la palabra UNDENIABLE o most over rated player in history, son grandes AFIRMACIONES cuando no ofreces datos duros para corroborar tus dichos, seguramente eres todo pero no un cientifico. Otro argentino mostrando elocuencia desmedida, y van....

@@Liquidcadmus never read such nonsense. Pele is along with messi the most complete attacker the game has ever seen. There's literally nothing he couldn't do. Dribble past an entire team, finish from anywhere, outpace any defender, score headers, create chances and did so for over a decade. Putting any Brazilian over him, let alone fkn rivaldo and dinho who are nowhere near is ridiculous. Stop selling your fact-ignoring opinion as some "undeniable fact"

Pero mientras tanto, en Argentina, muchos siguen idolatrado a otro que no se acerca a las bondades que Dios le dió a Messi, en todo sentido, Messi siempre ha estado en el camino correcto, sin vicios, escogiendo sus amistades, no se ha involucrado con dictadores y es muy sano.

Agreed. Im a semi pro, I cant hold a candle to a professional, even MLS level. Dribbling is the hardest part of the game, IMHO. To dribble an entire professional european team almost on a weekly basis is something we may never see again.

@@daaronmcfarling6553 exactly my point

@@daaronmcfarling6553 I used to play as a playmaker that was hard to learn because you need vision accuracy and passing very technical stuff but on messis level is just stupid you really appreciate what he's doing when you've attempted to do stuff yourself what he's doing is so unrealistic he's a super hero to me 🦸‍♂️

@@daaronmcfarling6553 At some point there will be another player who will surpass Messi for sure. Pelé was considered an alien who attracted Kings, Queens and world leaders. They had no clue that the game is constantly evolving. Then came Maradona who set the bar new until Messi changed it. The GOAT conversation is nice but lets see if Messi and Ronaldo will be remembered in 2060 like Pelé is remembered today.

Meeeee!!!!

Here i am, here i am, how do you do?😀

Mee Messi

Mee

Yes, but that should not deviate us from admiting the facts, and its a fact that if you give 5 penalties to a team in 7 matches, you clearly want that team ti become champion. A shame, Messi didnt need that.

but then Ronaldo texted him. Nothing can escape PR7. Speak against and he will not shake your hand

What he said at the end there is so true. If Messi was putting Ronaldo's or Maradona's numbers, people would be saying that he's not playing that good anymore.

Even he knows who the GOAT is

I swear me too.. I always enjoy it.. He is a big fan of Messi

I agree. Also hoping that Ronaldo will get a club where he can shine again. Can’t get enough of them.

Maradona won a world cup on his own, in a very poor Argentina team. Maradona also won the league title with Napoli, a mid to bottom table side, in the strongest league in the world at the time, in an era where Italian football showcased the greatest defences of all time. It would be like Messi going to Aston Villa, and winning the league, not once, but twice! Oh.. and the Europa league title too … sorry, but maradona is the undisputed goat 🐐

@@manmy016 Yeah and Maradona played against who? Yeah competition and football now is harder than then.

@@manmy016 numbers would say otherwise and you can’t ignore his numbers

@@manmy016 MESSI🐐🇦🇷 MARADONA🐐🇦🇷

​@@manmy016let's not talk about cocaina and handball 😂. Football was harder back then too. But sure let's go with your narrative cuz it fits your favourite player.

Diego was great But if anyone is unbiased and has played football and knows about football if sees them play, their stats and their Awards. All three things says that Messi is way better. Diego was god gifted Messi is god playing football I hated Argentina when their own people didn't respect Messi. If god would have given such a player to us😔... Btw live from India bro❤️ It's nice to see that not everyone hated him for not performing in National team before. It's my dream to once watch him play and say to him how great he is and how much I love him. Maybe If bhagwan(god) wants I will come to Argentina to watch him play someday

Don't worry,, even Diego himself admitted that Leo is the goat

Pele is only player in history that have 3 world cups

@@worlddd7777 mira, sólo para que te hagas una idea: Mbappe estuvo a punto de ganar su segunda copa mundial y posiblemente también la podria haber ganado en el 2026... Entonces quieres decir que Mbappe, Giroud, Kanté y posiblemente Griezmann hubiesen sido los mejores de la historia al lado de Pelé por tener 3 mundiales?????? Te das cuenta de la barbaridad que dices al considerar que las copas mundiales definen al mejor jugador de la historia???? A Messi ya se le consideraba el mejor de la historia sin copa mundial... Eso sí es grandeza.

@@claudiocastroortega9697 pero, mbappe no ganó ahora, y no ganará 3 copas del mundo, por lo que Pelé sigue siendo el único jugador en la historia que tiene 3 copas del mundo... el punto es que no hay un mejor jugador de todos los tiempos, cada era tiene grandes jugadores, entonces fue Pelé, luego Kroyff, luego Maradona, luego Zidane y Ronaldihno y ahora Messi, cada uno de ellos hizo algo que nadie hizo, y todos jugaron en diferentes épocas del fútbol, por lo que es imposible comparar... romper todos los récords de Messi, pero Messi seguirá siendo uno de los mejores de todos los tiempos

@@worlddd7777 te puso la suposición de Mbappe porque es en la que cae tu argumento de que Pelé es mejor porque tuvo 3 mundiales. Te das cuenta que tener 3 mundiales no necesariamente te hace el mejor??? Giroud, Mbappe, Kanté estuvieron a nada de tener 2 copas y en el 2026 podían tener 3... Que te hace pensar que Giroud podría estar a la par de Pelé???? El mejor fútbol se juega desde 2010 hacía adelante. No existió un fútbol más competitivo que este... Obviamente los mejores deben estar en esta época. Y todavía hay gente que cree que Maradona está a la par de Messi... Dios santo, eso sólo se lo puedo aceptar a un Argentino mayor de 50 por el tema de Las Malvinas, pero El Diego fue el mejor sólo por 3 años y Messi rompió todos sus récords y es el mejor hace 17 años... Algo similar es lo de Pelé. Fue un anormal para el fútbol de su tiempo. He visto todo lo que puedes encontrar sobre él. El Leído sus 2 biografias mas conocidas. He visto todo lo que puedes encontrar de Di Stefano y Didí... He volteado todo lo que puedes encontrar del fútbol de los 50s. y 60s. Por favor, hay que tener 2 dedos de frente para creer que Di Stefano podría dominar el fútbol actual. O qué Didí podría ser titular del Brasil de Cafú, o que Pelé podría superar en carrera a CR7. Es una mentira que todo lo que todo lo que ahora se hace ya lo hacía Pelé... Encuéntrame jna jugada de Pelé que sea similar a las de Messi.... Son dos estilos de juegos totalmente distintos y en un nivel totalmente distinto. Tu crees que Pelé tiene la rapidez de pierna que Messi? De verdad crees que Messi no dejaría tirado a Pelé en un mano a mano asi cómo a Terry, Boateng, Ramos, Ferdinand, Van Dijk???

No digo que 3 copas del mundo ganen automáticamente la carrera por el mejor jugador. Pelé redefinió el fútbol, lo hizo popular en todo el mundo, él era el fútbol, por eso es uno de los mejores, nadie hizo lo que hizo. Y 3 títulos son solo la guinda del pastel. Maradona ganó la copa del mundo con una Argentina promedio que estaba en pésima forma, y pasó del gran Barcelona al pequeño Napoli, y ganó, probablemente, la liga más difícil en la historia del fútbol y esa es la Seria A. Kroff literalmente creó el fútbol moderno. Ronaldihno es, con mucho, el jugador de fútbol más talentoso de todos los tiempos, es el único jugador que vi que hacía que otros jugadores parecieran niños a su alrededor, tenga en cuenta que entrenaba muy poco y estaba de fiesta todo el tiempo, y nunca se tomó el fútbol en serio. Qué decir de Maldini o Bekenbauer, que crearon un tipo de jugador defensivo moderno y ganaron todo lo que hay que ganar en el fútbol. Messi y Ronaldo son los jugadores más eficientes y con carreras más largas de la historia, y así sucesivamente. Como puedes ver, todos estos jugadores hicieron algo que ningún otro jugador hizo. No se pueden comparar eras, antes, el lanzamiento era terrible, la pelota era más pesada, la defensa era más brutal. Era mucho más difícil jugar mucho tiempo en los años 70 y 80 que en la década de 2010, cuando los jugadores tenían toda la atención médica moderna y la protección de los árbitros y la tecnología VAR. Si Messi jugara en los años 70 y 80, alguien se rompería las piernas y ni siquiera recibiría una tarjeta por eso, si Pelé o Maradona jugaran en la era actual con todas las ventajas en tecnología, serían una bestia. Y dime, si antes era tan fácil marcar, ¿por qué Maradona o Pelé no marcaron 5-6 goles por partido? Antes era menos táctico y más duro, hoy es más táctico pero menos técnico. Antes teníamos mucho mejores ambientes, jugadores con carisma. Hoy tenemos mejores estadios, tecnología VAR pero ambientes horribles y jugadores robot estériles. Entonces, respeta toda la historia del fútbol, porque algún día algún niño romperá todos los récords de Messi y dirá que el fútbol de 2020 es viejo y aburrido, pero eso no hará que Messi sea menos grande.

Seriously the disrespect is insane. Messi shouldn't be compared to anyone but a lot of people try to box messi into just goals and use that alone and compare him to others.

@@nzgkilla pele

Ahhaha shadow bruh what you talkin about both are phenomenal. Value what you provide

he challenged messi 100%..and messi recognised that..both are different players..

Christiano was never in Leo’s shadow, they had one of the greatest rivalries in football history with each one trying to out preform the other and succeeding until the other comes back with something else. The saddest thing is messi evolved his game to be more of a provider and not caring too much if he scores while cr7 still trying to score goals at his age. He’s ruining his legacy.

@@nuclearwinter6231 definitely the greatest rivalry in all sport. Not one rivalry is fiercer than this and it last for 15-17 years

I dont think Ronaldo would have done what he did without Messi. The rivalry drove him.

No. He played bad many ways with Argentina.

Messi's physical appearance is an advantage for his way of playing. He has a very low center of gravity which helps him turn and run with the ball faster. It's harder to dribble like he does if you are taller.

Messi does something that I always say to people no matter what situation you are in always think ahead what next is going to happen take control and you will be in control that is what makes Messi the world greatest player anything after Messi will have to be something like a robot like what they introduced in the game of chess

but my good man there are players that are identical in size height and can never be like him so that cannot be any advantage it is and was the sacrifice he made to become this person it did not come as any gift he worked and worked if it was just gift we would have had a lot like him he is the one that created what we see no one else as they say what you put in is what you will get out is Messi who created Messi

more like sleep with him lol

@@STRANGER-el8ox zero knowledge.

@@STRANGER-el8ox Most of his career? 6 years for United, 9 years for Real Madrid....

Absolutely gold

He likes Ronaldo way more. Just putting on a deceptive face as if he's fond of Messi. Rio Ferdinand would never admit that Messi is better than Ronaldo. It takes one egoist to appreciate another which is why Ronaldo is always better in his mind. Berbatov should of played in the finals against Barcelona top leading goal scorer left out for chumps like Hernandez, Owen and Rooney. I'm sure Ferdinand convinced Ferguson to play with weird tactics and leave Berbatov out of the finals. Such a pitiful display of performance. We would have had a chance with Berbatov it could of been competitive. But no bully Ferdinand has to decide everything like he owns the world. Rooney was terrible on his own in the frontline.
