Where is Pele's Best player Golden ball in the Olympic??

Messi played with Argentine Aiyegbeni, you can't blame him for not having a National team Trophy!!

You are still hiding Pele's under team Trophies.. He played with the best ever teammates in the history of World cup!!!

Clown. Did Pele participate in Olympics??

FIFA world cup golden ball
FIFA world cup silver ball
Copa America golden ball
FIFA world youth golden ball
7 ballondor (readjusted)

Don't be foolish. If with all these international acheivements Pele was carried, then Messi was babysat. At least Pele won the trophies too... Why couldn't Messi win any trophy with Argentina after 20 years??

He never won 7 Ballon d'or .
Remove that heresy!!!!

There is no such thing as adjusted Ballon d'or..

Some players won it those years!!! You are disrespecting players that won it in those years assumed for Pele!!!

Stop the Overhype pls!!!

Pele was just a pre competitive era Legend!!!

He had the best teammates in the history of the
World cup..

He never played with Higuain or Palacios kind of Players at any point in his National team Career!!!

Performance in the 50's and 60's against defenders of the 50's is too weak compared to Modern football of late 90's and the VAR era!!!

The only player to win the Ballon d'or in the Pre-VAR era and VAR era is Lionel Messi...

Greatest Of All time!!

Argetina Aiyegbeni(Higuain) is the striker!!! Why was he so useless??

You expect the playmaker(Messi) to score in all games despite being the highest goal scorer of the team..??

Even Eder scored and won the Euro for Portugal when Cristiano was handicapped!!!
Even mumu coach no fit get cr7 use Eder, how you dey watch ball na. He was injured make him kill himself,...
And again messi no be attacker again ma playmaker or playmakers dont attack. Bros messi na striker, he failed Argentina, he couldn't step up. That's why he cant win any ucl trophy without iniesta n xavi, he needs them. Except those guys play for Argentina the guy cant win for Argentina national team.

How many Trophies did Xavi and Iniesta win between 1999 and 2005 before Messi ??

Just 1 Trophy!!

Xavi and Iniesta are edified Marco Senna and David Silva without Messi!!

Messi make them!!!

They are also lucky to have a Madrid-Barcelona joint teams in the National team!!!

David Villa alone is worth all the trophies won by Spain between 2008 and 2012!!

And Casillas several saves too

Stop overhyping Xavi and Iniesta, it is shallow!!

They only made the Ballon d'or top 3 once!!!

They are at Modric's level!!!

Aimar , Walter Samuel, Zanneti, Heinze, Alex Milito were passed their prime in 2006..
Besides Pekerman only featured Messi in just 2games in the 2006 World cup as a substitute!!!

Beside that Tournament, Messi didn't play together with them..

What did all these players you mentioned achieved for Argentina in their prime??

They were all eliminated in the group stage of 2002 World cup!!

So, what is the hype??
