Lionel Messi is the most overrated player in the world.

He can't even take accurate shots or head with precision.

I personally think he's an average player.

kabukabu:

Messi fanboys all over the place,why is this even on the front page, take it to the sports section.
didn't we just watch a world cup where he failed to score one goal .

some of you messi fanboys need to buy your messi pajamas and boxers,wear your messi face cap and sleep in your messi matress, grown men fawning over some foreign teenager, you guys must have homo, tendencies.

some of you want to spend a weekend with messi

Man U fan i hail una oooo, the biggest haters i ve ever seen, the poster is a man u fan forsure. I bet u, had it been mikel went to man u in the 1st place, by now he would ve been playing in turkey or qatar were u will not know the name of the club he's playing for. Where are the likes of saha & manucho. Saha played his heart for man u with talent and skills, yet fergie still did not appreciate him, keeps the guy on bench,. Even when the guy comes from bench, he still performs excellently. I can't advice any black player to play in man u because they will ruine his carrier.

The guy who started this thread and those against mikel are bunch of idiots with cockroach brain. Without iniester, and xavi or any good holding/central midfielders, messi is USELESS. Mikel is a player that stand out irrespective of whom he's playing with. Mikel is a holding midfielder while messi a striker. If you compare a striker with a striker, ok. Like asking who's better between eto'o and ibramovic or whose better btw Drogba and roony or who's better btw puyol and ashley cole. But comparing a striker with a holding midfielder is plain silly. Man utd can't win matches if their key players are injured but Chelsea win can do without any player. If Messi were playing in England, he would have expired long ago coz he's not rugged.

@Solo1ng thanks for that comments, many nigerians don't appreciate what they have. I don't know why they hate dis guy and chelsea, they always compare messi with mikel in terms of achivement.why not compare fabregas with messi, what has fabregas with all his skills achieve,when we are talking abt lifting trophies fabregas is not enjoying that at all.Their is competition in chelsea team, you will ve to fight for shirt. Why is fabregas having a second thought about going to barca, he knows there is competition in the team. Not like arsenal where is been over rated.
The 2010 fifa worldcup has thought Fabregas a lesson,fab go to barca and sit on the bench, that's the lesson the worldcup thought fabregas.In the mildst of world players, world mildfilders mikel is still playing regularly excluding when he was injured late last season.
Mikel obi is the best thing that has happen to nigeria (as drogba is the best thing that has happen to ivory coast,as eto is the best thing that has happen to cameroon,as essien is the best thing that has happen to ghana,as some players in africa are the best thing that has happen to thier country )etc

sley4life:

There is no basis of comparison. Messi is far better than Mikel. Lets leave skills apart. Messi is more disciplined than Mikel. Messi is an ambassador in the world. Mikel is rude, telling our own sia1 to come to his bedroom to apologise. Mikel is a dru^nker. Personaly i see no reason for the basis of this topic

chidichris:

if anyone sees mikel as useless, that one is a never do well. if u look at the haters of mikel here, what u will see is envy, greed and jealous. show me any progressive in life that will say mikel is not doing well never.
manucho went to man u, played just one game and he was sent out on loan and was later sold. now diouf is on his way to briminham on loan while the much talked abt anderson will be used along 12 million pounds to bid for ozil and some less than idiots are here telling me that mikel made a mistake in dumping fergie and his 4 million for mourinho and his 16 million. who among u mikel haters have heard abt 16 million pounds in your lineages?
well thinking ppl will ask how come mikel finished his first contract with chelsea and is in the second contract?
another  here(12large) keep on saying mikel never scored for chelsea and i always inform him that mikel has scored twice for chelsea but with his kind of brain, he can't learn.
God has place mikel well above his haters hence they talk in vain. by the way, what do u expect from all these under bridge boys?
mikel is everywhere making money. he did not play in south africa yet he collected some funds from mtn and pepsi for endorsements. samsung is always visiting the bank to bless his account. he is into another one with yobo and osaze for pepsi and one less previledged is here wasting his time comparing mikel with everybody.
i know the next poster is warming up by now and this time, it is going to be between mandela and mikel or mikel vs obama, what a shame.


there will never be a sports forum on nairaland without mikel's topic.
some shameless ones who brought shame to their generations here in the past have gone underground so these are new generation fools parading themselves here condeming a man blessed by God.

Let me use this opportunity to ask these good-for-nothing fellas (12large, dextype, princekevo ,efoghorjos) some important questions. If not for the mere fact that, I was banned from making comments the last time I got angry because of some silling people here.

My questions goes thus, What have u silly scums achieved in life compared to Mikel has can feed your lineage yet unborn and those your mates in school, are you with the same level with them? Trust me, most of them are far above you and like one guy stated here, your parent will prefer Mikel you lazy bones.

Had it being that, you were so busy using your time to think of  better ways to improve your livelihood and those of your loved ones, you will not have commented those things you wrote.

Mikel is making money per seconds per seconds and you old men sitting down in a public cafe making useless comment and if i may ask, what position is Messi playing and Mikel Playing? Messi is an attacking player having quality midfielders to provide him quality passes and Mikel is playing deep in the midfield.

There is something fundamentally wrong with your youth, use your time well for Mikel is using his well

princekevo:

What a comparison? LOl, Nigerians will never stop being funny. Here we are again trying to compare Messi who is at the peak of his career with Mikel whom his career has already ended. It is time he start eyeing for Quater clubs to finish his career.
