I have said it before , please before you judge, go to yutube and watch the best of all the so call great players..yes they are or were great players but compare their best performance put together to date on yutube with that of Messi and sincerely not out of hatred or prejudice , who makes you go cracy like wow! Then tell us if Messi doesnt deserve the award even till now ..talking of international, do you think it is all about Argentina not performing? We are talking of a player that has made people globally go cracy for football and you are reffering to how Argentina lost to Brazil.Please stop the hatred and give honour to who is due.I never loved Barcelona, Ronaldinho made me love the club and Messi glue me to it. Open your eyes and watch!!!

How Much will U AvoiD The Reality.........This is the Ultimate TruTh !! Van Dijk may have Been The Best CB in The WorLd but a 75+ goals involvement Deserves To Be The undisputed No.1... NoT the Greatest Award but Surely The Most HonesT

Just to put it into perspective how mental Messi's stats are: If you started your football career today and scored 40 goals a season for 15 consecutive years, you'll still be 71 goals behind Lionel Messi. This doesn't include the 286 assists he has to his name. G. O. A. T 🐐
