Messi is already the goat this would just make it undisputed
There would be no Messi if it wasn't for the first alien of the game Diego Maradona.... Folks just don't understand..... A 1 billion pound man in today's market easy..... Maybe 2 billion in his prime with today's crazy cash....
@@DJeMo The 1st allien of the game was Pele not Maradona....Messi is in their bracket now, CR7 was also in this elite group bit he's just been kicked out
@@Skywalker156 yup, pele was great for his era and he was a alien so was Maradona but the only problem with Maradona is he wasn't Maradona all the time, he didn't have the career you would expect someone that good to have
This statement makes no sense. If he’s already the goat without the WC, then why would he need the trophy to make it undisputed? All the GOAT members won one. Why would that not apply to Messi. He’s not even the best Argentinian.
@@roccosage8508 my guy it means that everyone would agree, cant compare messi to ronaldo messi is clearly better but that debate is still open, also you gonna tell me pele the player that played half a century ago is a better football than messi? the sport evolved and pele should be known as the best of his generation since football was not the same as it is now, and yeah messi is the goat without the wc if he wins it its like getting 103% on a test, you already have full marks but might as well do those bonus questions
These guys should become full time stand-up comedians & part time pundits 😭😭😂😂
bro I died when Dan said "Stevie will be back here tomorrow...and in color"
Some of the things they say, I swear they are taking comedy more seriously than punditry...
great bants
haha tbh I feel like they are all close, they know so much about each other, thats what makes it even better
They're not?
There will always will be people who will say “ now he has to win three because pele won three”. Messi is undisputed GOAT
1962 Pele was injured and missed most of the tournament. He should thank Garrincha for that "win".
@@gumdeo missed most
He missed everything except a single match
Messi is already the GOAT he doesn't need a world cup
lol you're right. I'm gonna get emotional if he keeps up his performance in the next two games and wins the final.
if World Cup is measure then yes he had to win two already :D
I used to not like Stevie a few years ago but the man gets a bit more charming and a bit humbler each year 😂🤣
He’s great when he’s talking about anything but Liverpool
He's less of a Liverpool cult-zealot these days.
Messi's consistency and goal/assists per game ratio already make him the GOAT.
Lol ok buddy.
so ronaldo playing seven years in the premier league (while developing and at the end of his career) shouldn't be accounted for. Stats are obviously gonna be lower in the best league, just look how his stats exploded in la liga
@@shawn7274 I’ve learned you can’t reason with a Messi fan boy. They the most illogical people online and in real life.
@@himynameis294 it’s true
@@himynameis294let’s see benchnaldo pull off that nut Meg assist threw akes legs ina quarter final WC Knock-out 😂
Shaka getting on the wrong bus is the funniest thing ever 😂😂😂
With or without a WC, Messi's body of work -- goals, assists, free-kicks, dribbles, etc. -- will be unparalleled for years to come
I just find that kind of logic so ridiculous towards Messi. Why should a team achievement determine if he's the greatest or not? It makes no sense, considering a player doesn't win a world cup alone. You can point to any world cup where even the likes of R9, Maradona, Zidane, Pele, etc had others step up in games they didn't contribute. Therefore, they would not have won the trophy either, had that not happened.
Lots of players win world cups, yet the true marker of greatness is playing to the level Messi has over his career, and everything he's achieved while doing that. The fact he's 35 and is still a great dribbler, playmaker and scores many goals through his own play underlines his greatness. He's demonstrated that at this world cup, so win or lose, he deserves huge credit for the way he's played.
Couldn't agree more
Completely agree - it's just daft - but it's also really puzzling (and frustrating) as to why so many - including professional pundits - have adopted it. How did that happen?
I'm pretty sure Messi can't win anything on his own. His contribution may be great however.
Isn't that thinking part of Ballon D'Or - where it's stated that winners of that have to have won major competitions or something? Just wondering if that's the source. But why so many have adopted such an argument I don't know.
@@19nick57 The world loves to drag greatness down.Messi never speaks or praises himself unlike other divas who get offended at slightest transgressions, he also never retorts to all the mudslinging that a section of media always does to him. They've gotten used to pulling him down and not facing any retaliation, personal biases are also there and very evident if you observe a bit carefully.
the objective of the sport is 'team success' your individual contribution in getting that objective done is what determines your Greatest status
1 Messi has been the player his club's system was built around and best player in 3 different UCLs years Cristiano Ronaldo has 5
So Messi would need to win 2 UCL more UCLs as the best player and do the same winning WC22 to clear Ronaldo as THE Greatest
@@chrism8457 That's explained well Chris thanks. It's correct that Messi or anyone else may be so good you build a whole team round them. Absolutely. But it's still a whole 10 other players who made that team win anything - not just one guy. The fact is that Messi/Ronaldo are goats DESPITE not winning a UCL or WC - trophies are the goal of all players but it's the other 10 who all helped you get there. You can be the greatest and not win a WC. Cruyff didn't but is considered one of the all time goats.
Shaka "I'm not a Doctor of bus routes!" 🤣
The chemistry between these guys is a joy to watch.
I’m glad Shaka mentioned the WC HOSTED IN Japan and S.Korea. I recall the teams S.Korea, Japan and USA, were very enjoyable to watch that year.
SK getting to the semis was clearly a fix though. Morocco have earned it
@@alexndr27 South Korea were tremendous and so energetic in that World Cup under Guus Hiddink. That was not a fix at all.
@@chrisapple77 they were literally getting favorable calls every match.
@@chrisapple77u must be legally blind then if that WC was not fixed
"The relationship is getting better: I'm not seeing him as much" 🤣 That is the key to successful relationships in general.
One reason i m fan of this show is mainly of Mr Stevie. So entertaining n judges football so well
A certain fan base has been watching Messi for 4 games only to end up in tears after every game 😂
Things you love too see
🤣🤣👍
I hope for the sake of football that they don't win. They are the most ugly and despicable team to watch at this tournament. Their behaviour, fouls, fighting and treatment of the Netherlands in that last games sums up the Argentine way. They've always played like that and that's why I can never respect them. Of course the media completely ignores this because it doesn't fit their narrative of it being Messi's moment. The bias this tournament to him has been disgusting. They lost to Saudi Arabia, barely beat Australia and won on the toss of a coin against the Netherlands. They are really not a good team at all. If they are to win, then they have to go down as one of the weakest WC winners ever.
And in the end they will say robbery lol
I am one of them
I'll come back to see what you have to say when they win the wc🤭
He already is the GOAT, forced debate
Not even the goat of argentina.
@@ahrlj24 i mean him n maradona are goats but ok

Messi winning the World Cup would make my Christmas. I believe in you and the team. Bring it home…
BRING IT HOME FOR MESSI!!!
Crotia is very strong ..in defence .goal keeper is world class .it will still be 0-0 and go into penality crotia with a win
With Ronaldo already gone, it would make my Christmas if Messi lost too.
Amen
@@cactaceous same here I really wanna see Messi crying it would be the biggest satisfaction I will have in this WC.

Messi winning world cup is my Christmas gift. Now let's see how naughty or nice I've been with Santa for it to come true
Could be the most wished Christmas gift all around the world...!
I love these guys! My virtual football friends.
"I wonder if it's going to extra time"😭😭🤣🤣
The absurdity of this requirement of needing to win a world cup to be considered the greatest is shown exactly now. If Messi wins 2 games, does that then make him a better player next week than he is today? Exactly, It makes no sense.
Like I said in one of my other comments, if you think he's the greatest, he's already the greatest. Those who don't think he's the greatest most likely won't be changing their minds even if he wins this world cup, because if they haven't changed their minds at this point, will it really be changed in a week's time. But I do want him to win, because it'd be one less stick to beat him with.
But don't be surprised if the next narrative is,
"Well he hasn't won 3".
"Well he didn't do it alone" even though Maradona's team was probably less reliant on him than this one is on Messi
"Well he doesn't have 5 UCL"
"Well he never played in the Premier League"
"Well he has less Quarterfinal goes in this one competition"
"Well he has not done it in 3 leagues"
Moral of this story, there's always going to be a stick
So true
Anyone who truly knows and understands football is aware that Messi is the greatest and a tournament that comes around once every 4 years for a month where you play a single digit amount of games does not define or accurately measure your ability and overall legacy as a footballer. But 20+ years of sheer brilliance, consistency and longevity does.
“Maradona was Maradona sometimes. Messi is Maradona every day.”
Almost 800 goals and well over 300 assists at 35 years old? How can a dude be the best player at a World Cup at that age and somehow be a forward and a playmaker at the same time?
Vamos Leo 🐐 bring home that trophy 💜 🇦🇷
Facts. If u watch football, Messi is the best ever. Come on Argentina 🙏
I hear what you're saying, but the best players in any sport show up on the biggest stages, at the biggest moments. We already know Leo Messi is one of the greatest players of all time. However, his title as GOAT is still very much open to debate. The very scarcity of opportunity that the World Cup provides is part of what makes it so compelling, as it is unequivocally the BIGGEST stage in all of football. If Messi were to actually be able to win it, his case for being the one and only GOAT would become almost bulletproof.
If you really think this you’re stupid. CR7 is the best and everyone knows it.
@@himynameis294 time for you to quit it. Its getting embarrassing now. He's already been replaced with haaland, who looks to be on his way of becoming the best goalscorer ever. There's not gonna be another Messi.

Well, they have worked together for quite a few years now.

These guys are hilarious. Good comedic instincts in this bunch.
United fan here ! Messi is the goat true professional still important team player finishing his career with dignity and hopefully a world cup !Ronaldo a spoiled angry boy going around sulking !
Senegal beating the previous world champions, France in 2002 and making it to the quarter finals for their first world cup ever, that was a big deal too.
I pray Argentina can go all the way and win it for their county and the whole world who’s rooting for them and Messi. He deserves it for the career he’s had and just to hear Shaka say those words would be the icing on the cake along with the Ronaldo fan boy tears and denial. Most importantly I just want Messi to win it for himself, his teammates and his country and us fans who know he never needed it to be the true GOAT
😂 oh i love this extra time show
"I'm not a doctor of bus routes" is my favourite comeback ever on this channel.
u become greatest with hard work...
He is already the GOAT💪
Happy birthday Steve
Could someone help me out with what shoes Ale is wearing?
There's nothing Messi can do or win that will change the fact that he's the best there ever was in any sport no one has ever been so perfected at their respective craft.
All media : If if he doesn't win this world cup he is the GOAT
Media Now : If he wins the world cup is he the GOAT
What????

Happy birthday Stevie grown to like you and respect your opinion after watching you on the Highbury squad . Still think the 89 arsenal win still haunts u to be positive about arsenal 😂
To be honest i only saw Messi play a few times. I saw him in a game for club and was impressed. I saw him at the world cup multiple times but felt underwhelmed. I personally think Maradona is better, don't force opinions on people.
First person who has a brain exactly the reason why I don't like Messi because people picture him as Jesus and an innocent angel and try to force their opinion on others that he is the GOAT. Don't get me wrong Cr7 fans are annoying but they are nowhere near Messi fans level of annoyance. This is why I really hope he gets knocked out of the semi final and go home so him and his annoying fans crawl back to their caves. Also the way he acted against an old man who is battling cancer Van Gaal is disgraceful. Messi should've gotten a red card that game but you know it looks like Fifa is trying their hardest to make Argentina win the WC.
@@malzagod1429 What you don't realise is people like you come across as exactly what you're accusing Messi fans of being... The fact you don't like a player because of his fans, and say you hope Messi loses so he can crawl back in his cave, makes you just as toxic as any Messi fan you're claiming is. By the way, Van Gaal is no longer battling the disease. It helps to do your research before saying things like that. Not to mention, Messi was responding to criticism of him and Argentina, which he's entitled to do. Oh, and if FIFA are trying to make Messi win the world cup then why did the ref add on 10 mins against Holland, and award them a free kick right at the end? You're not being logical.

Comparing players of different generations is always an impossible task. I always felt Messi was best Argentine player in history, without seeing full videos of Maradona playing. But Maradona had special talent with the ball, similar to Messi. And a large portion of people would say Maradona is greatest of all time. Some say Pele for winning multiple world cups, some would say Cristiano for longevity/stats/influence etc. It will always be an endless debate as new players will emerge and quite likely eclipse what Messi and Cristiano have done to set the bar so high. Mbappe is near winning 2nd World cup, at such a young age, contributing many goals in both tournaments, has more goals than the other 2 mentioned at the same age, so how do you measure what is considered the greatest of all time? you can't, you can only give "your" opinion on who you believe is the best or like the best. Messi is for me the best player (playmaking, ball control, accuracy) naturally gifted, but for me Cristiano has a broader legacy, "greatness", for achieving all he has competing with Messi for 15+ years, beating him out to golden boots, la liga titles, champions leagues, with arguably a weaker side for many years, and his international trophies (Euro 2016, Nations League) . But definitely Messi is more talented.
Wth?? Cristiano beat Messi in la liga titles🤣🤣🤣🤣.., golden boot..??? In Mars?? In Euro/ NL he wasn't the best player not in tournament but not even Portugal. What exactly u mean?? Messi vs Maradona vs Pele is a good debate,but different era.
Both of ferguson united and real when ronaldo there isnt inferior to barca. The only difference barca have messi factor and pep making new meta tactics at that time
@@user-bi5nw4vp6t No I said Cristiano beat Messi "to" La liga titles and golden boots while at Madrid, I implied this on different seasons (not overall) CR7 and Messi competed season after season where Messi had dominance for the majority of their time in Spain, but CR7 reached that level alongside him and beat him to a pair of Liga titles and a few golden boots. And this reinforces the point I was making, where everyone can have their preference/bias. Whereas you say he wasn't the best player for Portugal during the Euro, it can be debated (Pepe was solid, Rui Patricio was great, Quaresma was decent etc) but a big portion of the sport community will look at CR7s contribution and see the importance it had. 2 nice goals vs hungary to get them to the knockout round, an assist to Nani vs Iceland I believe, a rocket header vs Wales and a shot/assist to Nani to book their spot in the final. That is why I say he cemented his legacy on every team he played for, and captained portugal to their first major trophy. It wasn't the most aesthetically pleasing, but it was effective. Messi plays with finesse, Ronaldo relies on athleticism (jumping headers/burst of acceleration/laced power shots etc). If Messi is considered the best footballer (natural talent), what does it speak of CR7 (a trained product) competing for near 2 decades at the highest stage? That is why for me, Messi is best naturally talented footballer I have seen, but CR7 for me will have a greater legacy/impact in the history books. 2 living legends
@@fm_CLS Overhyped. Actually CR vs Messi in golden boot makes no sense because from 2015 all the attack were going through Messi and CR was just the finisher of team. Still he lost the golden boot. The media hype is the only reason that rivalry makes sense after 15 because Messi won 3 golden boot as finest playmaker in the world. Then Messi destroyed la liga player of season award 7-1-1 against CR and Griezi. Even in international level,, Messi was best player until final and consistent before failure. WC 14,Copa 15 and 16...Copa 21 he did it. CR was not best or arguably not top 3 in Euro. You mention tw good CR performance Wales, Hungary...and he was worst Portugese player against Austria,Poland and Croatia. R. Sanchez was amazing as well as defense. So the rivalry is only an overhyped one after 14.
Cristina beating Leo in La Ligas ????
Are you on drugs ?
Cristiano has won only two La Ligas in his nine years in Spain
Messi won 6 in those nine years
Cristiano has 4 golden boots to Messi's 6
Cristiano played with a billion dollar Real Madrid team that's won the champions league before him and after him. Go look at any montage of him in his time at Real Madrid and you'll see how the team fed him all the tap ins so that him and his delusional fangirls can think that he's equal to Messi.
Messi has the greatest legacy a football player can have and Ronaldo comes nowhere near it. It was never even a debate for those with any modicum of intellect to speak of. Messi stands alone at the top, and by some distance at that.

The way the game is viewed has changed. The world cup argument is becoming an outdated concept. It used to hold more importance in determining the greatest because it was the only real football that was shown worldwide at the time of Pele and Maradona. The respective top leagues and the European cup aka the CL was not followed by a worldwide viewing audience like it is now. Club football now holds even more importance, which is why people recognise Messi's greatness has been proven over what he's shown and achieved as a player throughout his career. Lots of players have won world cups, yet very few have played to the level Messi has, let alone have done that for 15 years. That's why some huge names in football believe Messi is the greatest. Needless to say, they are well qualified to judge.

People trying to say if you lose 1 game at the world cup, you're not the greatest. How stupid is that? This basically says only players from the top 10 or so soccer countries can possibly have the best player. Every one else doesn't matter apparently. How about you look at the players as individuals. How do they do in terms of goals and assists? Do they make a difference on their team? Do they dribble well? Do they have good playmaking skills? How are their individual accomplishments?
Messi is head and shoulders above everyone who has played at a professional level before him. He's the goat, with or without a world cup.
