messi is good, no he is great. but not the best. when you talk about the best footballers of all time you hear some common names. pele, maradona, best, ronaldo, zidane, and messi......you dont always hear them in that order, dont get me wrong. but the first two names you hear usually are pele and maradona. i think pele is the greatest to ever play the game. he did it at the highest level where it really counts the most. he won 3 world cups....messi is a genius with the ball no doubt but at their times and at the age of 24, who's to say pele wasnt a genius? or maradona wasnt a genius, ffs, he scored with his fcuking hand (in the world cup!)....at the club level, messi is a beast, but until he can get it done at the international level, he can never be "THE BEST".
