Barca fans are not just logical at all..

How’s this comparison? A simple question - who would you prefer in your team at the moment, that’s not comparison. It’s an open minded question..

These Messi fans have compared messi with almost all the ex great footballers of the world - here they’re foaming!

They can’t just get past the fact that Chelsea have showed them pepper well well..

We even murder them 10men against 11 in the UCL..

We’ve got their records, hence why they’ll never like Chelsea.

All these noise about Messi......what season did Barca last played Ucl Final sef. He's a legend but the absence of Iniesta and Xavi really affected Barca at bigger stage n that's why they never get pass quarter final or semi in d past 4/5 season ago.
If football is just about goal, there would be no need for having goalkeeper in a team atall.
The man Kante deserve all the hype!
Did Kante play the FA cup final or not? Oh I forgot, he was on vacation that day and Tuchel had to use someone else in his position.
Nonsense and Ingredients!!

Its a good question bt coaches i know would go for messi dts proven for decades to Gv u goals n assita than kante dt would only help defense..
i think u should jus stop all dis kante joke bcoz you guys are now taking this kante hype to another level..

lets give ur kante more time before asking all this baseless questions or placing him in same sentence with an alien dt have been destroying records for decades....jokers..

Tell Messi to go and win a major trophy for his country.

Ronaldo had done that, ditto for Kante!!!

Insult? At who? First like ogbiwa has said above this is not a comparison of Messi and Kante as both players are not like for like, and then even secondly, Kante has won the world cup, Europa and Champions League in addition to his local league and played a central role in each of them, Messi has won the Champions league and his local league, so you may want to think again before knowing who you think is insulting who. Finally Kante and Chelsea outplayed Mancity yesterday so they're fully deserving champions. And this is from a non Chelsea fan
may our ancestors bless you for this truth bro

Men and brethren, after watching the champions league final yesterday, I'm beginning to reassess what I initially knew to be true about football which is that good attackers win you games. I can 100% say that Kante was a MAJOR reason for Chelsea's victory. Yes Messi may assure you goals and creativity and terrorize defenders but boy what a player like Kante brings to any team is out of this world.

NB I'm not a Chelsea fan but Chelsea fans I think you guys are blessed to have one of the all time greatest all round midfielders in your team. Kai what a player

Some people are just damn brainless. I'm a hard core Messi fan, also a Chelsea and there's hardly any comparison in the post. If you think the OP was trying to compare them, then go for a medical brain check up.
Would you rather have someone who can guarantee you a strong and solid midfield in Kante or one who can guarantee you goals and assists in Messi? If you're given the money today, which would you rather buy? This is the problem of Barcelona today. They invest so much money in attackers like Dembele and Coutinho who normally would guarantee them goals and assists and overlook defenders and solid midfielders like kante who would guarantee them a strong back line. OP, I'll choose Messi without any doubt, but if possible I'll take the two

OP was wrong for such question. Because football is a team sport. You can't say you have a kante so you don't need a Messi neither can you say you have a Messi so you don't need a kante. Every position from the goalkeeper to the number 9 has the same level of importance. Messi is the best in his position so is kante in his so there is no giving up one for the other.my point is such question shouldn't come up in the first place. From a Chelsea fan

This is not a comparison bro. These things are simple and some comments won't be necessary if we take time to think. You can't "compare" two things that are not like for like. Kante is a DM and Messi is a ST so their roles on a pitch are different therefore you can't substitute one's role for the other. Comparison will be if we're talking Messi/Ronaldo or Kante/Ndidi etc. So the poll was simply if you would rather have a team with a strong DM like Kante or a strong ST like Messi. You get it now?
His statement is very clear..

You can't compare two things that were never on the same level..

It is an insult and disrespectful to ever compare Kante to Messi..

With all due respect to Kante..

Maybe you are the one who needs a lesson on English language comprehension..

'Which would you rather have in your team?'

That is a direct comparison of what the two brings to the table in a team.

Stop showcasing your ignorance of the nuances of the English language..

Ur comment here shows that you either a novice in soccer or you don't know records Kante a playmaker that supply strikers. Can you compare messi assist to any other players? Messi is the player holding assist record in world of football. Messi assist in one season can Kante have it in two seasons? How did you measure your playmaker bro?
You’re responding on the wrong post

Flows001:
The OP's question can only be tolerated if Kante continues this form for at least 8 more years! Now that's the proven class I meant!
VVD had a stupendous season that even got him close to winning a Ballon D'or but where is he now? Now that's the form I meant!
Proven Class and Form are two different things, don't ever put Messi's name in the same sentence with Kante.
Where have you been all this while? Kante has always been a world class player since his Leicester days, he completely rose to stardom in Chelsea.

I'm not in support of the comparison between Kante and Messi. It's not even logical to compare them since they have different roles, except we have to consider respective effectiveness in their teams and there's no dispute about the fact that Messi is ahead.

However, Kante has nothing to prove to anyone. He doesn't have 8 years or 5 or 3 or whatever, to prove to anyone how much of a great player he is. You can't watch football frequently and tell me that. Kante is a joy to watch, little wonder why he's being requested for by big clubs.

Since Modric won the balon d'or without scoring goals then why can't Kante win it too? Do you think it's easy to win 4 man of the match awards (3 consecutively) in the knockout stages of the UCL?

Until Messi win a world cuo, don't compare him with Maradona. Messi and Ronaldo is on the same level. Balon d or is won by voting while world cup is won on the pitch.
tellwisdom:


I don’t have to understand whatever they wrote up there. No name or anybody should be put beside the name Messi.

Whether, who is taller or who is finer or Who dance pass or who get muscle. He stands alone

What Messi does on the field of play, it will only take a a supernatural being to do it.

Leave Messi out of all that comparison. Even Maradona and pele who have access to him no fit disrespect am the way kids like una de do. Abeg I no wan vex angry
