Blabbermouth:Youtube Pele videos and see for yourself. Pele was the engine room of the entire Brazilian team, plus Santos. About 70% of his playtime was not capture on camera. And don't forget he was just a midfielder... Bro, Pele is the real GOAT... Most players, copy his original invention in style of play today. Mesi does not come near Pele in any form, a master of both feet, a complete player. Nobody has beaten his records bro. Just use Youtube my friend, and clear your doubt. |

xfactor23: Since 70% of Pele's playtime was not captured how could u judge from the 30% available assuming u have seen all of it that Pele is the real goat,talking of records I hope u recognize that during Pele's time their was no offsides,imagine how many goals Lionel messi would have scored if the offside rule didn't exist,in my opinion Pele is highly recognized because of his performances at the world cup after all how many copa liberterdores titles ddid he win with santos 2 Likes |

Some people that don't know football will say Xavi and Iniesta assisted Messi. The question is how many assists did these guys give Messi individually? The highest assist Messi has gotten from a single person is 27 (from Suarez), the previous holder of the record is Dánì Alves that left barça 2 seasons ago. And Ronaldo's highest assister is Benzema, he gave Ronaldo more than 30 assists, follow by Ozil around 27 follow by Di Maria around 22. So who is assisting who? What I just discovered is that, the absence of Xavi and Iniesta has given Messi more roles (midfielder, player maker, forwarder). Ronaldo is good, no doubt about that, but my god of football is Messi, he dribbles, he creates chances, he converts, free kick is 99.99%. Last season, Messi was the most dribble completed, most pass completed, most assist, most chance created, most goal scored, he scored 7 freekicks (equalizing Ronaldinho's record), was Ronaldo on leave? Top 100 dribblers in the top flight leagues last season, Ronaldo wasn't there. At age 28, Ronaldo has stopped bothering himself about play making and dribbling, all he does is stay in the box and tap in, and if a player fails to assist him, he gets angry. Messi is a play I can show my kids, a wonderful tales to tell. 1 Like |

xfactor23:. Bro. In the era in which Pele played. Performing magic in football isnt as tough as in this era. The defenders then do not go through any defensive training at all.. I kind of secretly believe they are just random selections from the country's football team management.. Neglect those "Best of pele" youtube video. And rather check "pele vs a particular team" videos and u would kno wat am saying. To prove my point search "pele versus st etienne" where he faced just average defenders and u would see he Is not the GOAT u see him as. Those Brazil team then.. Had the likes of Vava, Didi, and especially Garrincha- who almost single handedly took Brazil for their 3rd world cup while pele was on bench due to injury from the second game of the world cup. Pele is a myth he wasnt who people thought he was |

Blabbermouth:Exactly,I am not saying Pele is not a great player but the level of football we saw in his era is nothing compared to what we are seeing today,during his time there were fewer games played at the world cup and the rules were not so tough,defenders were not as good as the ones we have today,I could even say that scoring goals were easier,take a look at that goal that Maradona scored against England at the 1986 world cup and compare it to a very similar goal that messi scored against one team in the LA liga around 10 years ago I can't remember the name of the team but I think its deportivo la Coruna cos they wore green,the goals were similar but watch the movement, maradona's pace was slower and the defenders seemed passive,messi on the other hand was much faster and he had to do more to move past the opposition 1 Like |

darkchild64:Research very well before you type, so you don't speak out f ignorance. The offside rule on the time of Pele was even tougher than now. It was just relaxed in the 1970 world cup. Don't forget that it was after 1966 world cup, that FIFA introduced the red and yellow card. His time saw the most brutal part of defense, and tackle. Not now, that most so called stars dive to score cheap point. The era of Pele was the era of real football. Pele played for the team, the team played for Messi. |

Blabbermouth:Bro, yet this Pele took the best of Europe and wope them in every single game? Garrinacha was a great dribbler, Pele the great inventor. Most moves, has his signature, as the originator. Are you saying the likes of Bobby Moore, Franz Beckenbauer are randomly picked defenders? Men, listen up, this guy faced the best of the world, and not only dazzled them but scored a 1000 goal. Pele is the real GOAT, others are looking up to him. |

Nbote: He can't leave Barca because he has retired 3x in the little challenges he faced in Argentina.. so why do you expect him to leave?? to flop somewhere else? Even Semeione who's from same country it made it clear to everyone that Ronaldo gives you what you want with any team while Messi have to he sorounded by his Barca teammates to do his work. I hope you saw how he left his country to Spain with fake injury, but still played with Barca in their next game.. Lol... so plz don't compare one team wonder to a 4 diff league team wonder |
