Lionel messi is considered by many as the greatest player of all time including me,but for the first in God know how many season,there is a new twist to situation for him @barca,because there comes a man called NEYMAR.......... NEYMAR is such an enterprising player that even messi cannot just rest on his laurels............... THE QUESTION IS WILL NEYMAR OUTSHINE MESSI OR THE CASE WOULD BE AS BEFORE.......... Personally I think we are seeing the beginning of an end of messi glorious career.......... ANY CONTRARY VIEW?

Many people fall but its their duty to rise up again.. Dont write him off yet. He is good at wat he does d fact dat he is not playing up to par yet does not mean he is a UK used.

Yes I know messi has scored five and assisted eight,which is quite outstanding,but for messi standard and the fact that messi eternal rival is doing more than he is doing @present..... My personal view though

Cr7 will suffer in the hands of big team if he sticks only to scoring only....a team like chelsea will reduce his influence but if messi will shine when he takes the playmaking role against a big team.

It's Penaldo who is declining. All his goals are just tap ins and penalties. He has no assists so far. Just tap ins and penalties. But Messi is now playing in a withdrawn position for Suarez and Neymar to score. 5 goals and 7 assists in 6 matches? No one in Europe's top 5 leagues has as much assists as Messi.

When Suarez returns, he will be the one to compete for goals with Penaldo.

[b]I wrote this in 2008. Almost six years ago. Many did not understand. This was before Messi won the Champions league in 2009.



Not CR7, It is Messi who might fade.

Premier League Manchester United
by everestmindz (U9456077) 05 December 2008

Reading some comments to some articles yesterday, I was disappointed seeing people writing that CR7 would fade while Messi would last longer and be a greater player.

Sorry I don't think this is true. If you look back Argentine players(especially the small ones) are the ones that even fade.

Argentine players peak very early and are so promising. Later they just seem to be irrelevant to the game. Let me give instances.

Ariel Ortega: France 98, 24 years old seemed like the return of Diego Maradona. After that, he just seemed to fade out.

Gallardo: Was awesome when he joined AS Monaco 22 years old then. He made NO IMPROVEMENT from then.

Pablo Aimar: Diego Maradona said, "This is the only player I can pay money to watch". Last year during a Real Zaragoza game, a commentator complained of how disappointing Aimar was and how he made NO IMPROVEMENT since he came to the Spanish league.

D'Alessadro: Was too special. Did awesome tricks and was so good for River Plate, when he helped Portsmouth escape relegation, since then NO IMPROVEMENT.

Javier SAVIOLA: My main point of arguement. He was the Golden boot and Golden ball winner in the 2001 U20 World Cup. Scored 11 goals in the tournament, remember Messi scored 7.

He joined Barca FC and was on fire. What next you suppose to have gotten it? NO IMPROVEMENT.

Argentina has won 5 of the last 7 U20 World Cup and Messi and Aguero are the only superstars they have to show because they are still young. Carlos Tevez is an exception. He has just grown in form.

So please don't tell me CR7 would fade and Messi would go on and dominate football. Argentine smallish players peak early and Messi is at his peak. He might get more consistent but there won't be any dramatic improvement.

Unlike CR7 who Carlos Quieroz said would become the MICHEAL JORDAN of football. He might not reach that status but I believe CR7 is not near his peak yet.

I will end it with the words of one of the greatest coaches to walk this earth SIR ALEX FERGUSON

''The percentage of votes he got made it an almost unanimous decision. It is good to know he wants to improve. I think he will improve.''

In as much as I believe that ronaldo is currently performing than Lionel messi,does not mean he his a better player than HIM.... Take for instance messi met ronaldo in this trade and he has won records that ronaldo has not won in his entire career, based on wat you said that argentina player will fade away towards the tail end of their career is quite acceptable to some extent,BUT you cannot tell me messi is depreciating,BIG TIME NO..... MESSI is the only player that has been nominated for world footballer of the year consecutively for the past eight years,and from his playing,he is not ready to stop.......... MESSI is not from this planet..... This famous quote was credited to Arsene wenger of Arsenal.

There is a media spin to Messi. Messi has some undeserved awards. Just like the World Cup Golden Ball we witnessed. In 2009/2010, he was not in the top three but he was given the award. In 2007, he was not in the top three but he was nominated for the award.


Messi is an exceptional talent, that is why he even lasted this long. However we can not deny that he is younger than CR7 and should be in better form.

Also he won most of his titles when Barca were invincible. As soon as they had weak points, CR7 ruled.

The fact is that Messi is fading before CR7 as I predicted in 2008. Also Tevez remains the true exception. Sad he was dropped from the World Cup team (For Messi to be the king).

[font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font] hi dude,are you telling me that you have a copy or have a clue of how world best emerge.......... laff, world best emerge only through vote,yes through vote only, and for your information messi won nothing in 2007,he was behind kaka in the race..... And in 2009/2010 that you claim he was unduly given the award, tell me reason(s) why he shouldn't have won the award, and tell me the REASON why RONALDO won the award in 2014.

guy u just trying hard to justify messi sha, u and I knows dat Ronaldo is slightly ahead of messi currently.
assist don't win matches wot win matches is GOAL, if u gave a player an assist and he didn't score will ur assist be counted? NO! ! and beside wot does OZIL, DI MARIA, ALONSO, XAVI, PIRLO, INIESTA and HAZARD win with assist. am not saying dat messi playing badly but for d fact his arch rival Ronaldo is banging goals from all corners he should be banging goals too.SO LEAVE DAT UR ASSIST ISH AND BRING ANODA BASE TO JUSTIFY HIM.

Thats part of the reason why cr7 couldnt perform at the world cup.
If Cr7 doesnt have an assistant, he wiil just be an average world class player, but if Messi doesnt have an assistant, it wont shake him.
Come to think of it, al those players, you mentioned, were they scoring at least one goal a game and assisting at the same time?....NO.
Those guys arent in Messi's class

Chelsea fans will even tell you that If you want goals, call DIEGO COSTA,If you want assist, call FABREGAS, if you want both, call LIONEL MESSI
