    Wayne Gretzky and Messi are the most similar IMO. Both are humble and great ambassadors for the game that gave them so much. That’s just off the ice and the pitch. The similarities continue when you talk about the way they play their respective games. Both have incredible vision and can look two plays into the future to know where to be. They are both facilitators and scorers, depending on what their teams need most. Incredible once in a generation (or three) athletes.

    *Never* mention Taylor Swift in the same sentence with Messi. She is *POPULAR* (but no artist). She was born rich & pretty. Messi is closer to Mozart or Van Gogh, a true artist with a skill that *cannot* be replicated or explained whose work makes you believe in a higher power. Even Lebron is a bad comparison tbh because he is 6’8, 270 lbs & never gets hurt, he’s talented & big but there’s no magic.
    P.S Love Paul Sheer, the fact he likes football makes me an even bigger fan 👍

    Messi has 2 very special rare talents. 1: When everything around him is running at 100mph, he's able to slow the game right down in his head and play the right ball to the right person and 2: He's able to generate an incredible amount of power from such a small backlift. Most players try to blast the ball, so obviously have a big backlift, this enabled the goalie to set prepare and set themselves for the save, however Messi's shots come at goalies when they are not ready. Another quality is Messi's mentality, always wanting to improve and wanting to win. However still think Maradona had more skill, he was able to score goals by himself where as Messi needs his team mates. However taking everything in to account of course Messi has to be the best ever.

The greatest individual athletes in the world play each other for trophies' and world recognition. Secondly, Messi plays in a team sport, without the team he wouldn't anywhere close to where he is now. Lastly, he can has literally only played in one sport in his career. Would he play well in the NBA or in Cricket or Cycling? Probably not, and players in those field might not be good at football.

    He's getting bored of playing in this league. just by seeing his face in the last games. He seems happier on the training with Suarez and Alba than on the actual game American reporters are quite ignorant with their comments regarding the performance of a soccer player. especially how the European matches are played in Europe. I feel sorry, the moment Messi retired in 2025 nobody will care about the MLS. Their players do not have the level to be bought by European clubs.
