I thought it should read 'Christ Embassy Building' instead of 'Dr. Chris Oyakhilome' since the church proceeds built it.

I agreed with you you messi isn't compared to any but still not if according to Ballon d'or he isn't the world greatest but Edson Arantes do Nascimento comes in handy, he (Pele) has had it 7 times will messi is got it 6 times.
if Ballon d'or will determine the goat then it's Pele not lm10 or cr7.
Sorry bro, did you say Pele won the Ballon 'dOr seven (7) times? I am not sure of this but there is NO WHERE IN HISTORY that says he ever won it, may be because of the time he played. There is record though that he was part of the Brazilian team that won the World cup three times. For now, Messi is the ONLY person to have won the award this many times....SIX times & counting.

Quotes on Lionel Messi:
________________________________________
• Pep Guardiola: “He is the best player I have ever seen. The best thing about him is not what he does but how simple he makes everything look. He is not just the best player because he can dribble past three or four players, it is because he does it better than anyone in the world.”
• Diego Simeone: “Messi is undoubtedly the best player in the world. He’s the determining factor. He’s key, he controls the pace, he directs above all the team’s attack.”
• Jürgen Klopp: “I have coached a few really good players. My dad liked Pele, but Messi is the best ever.”
• José Mourinho: “Messi is the god of football. When Messi has the ball, one on one, you’re dead.”
• Thiago Alcantara: “We give him the ball and stand back and watch. People often say to me they saw Pele and Maradona play. In the future, I will be able to say I saw Messi play.”
• Tata Martino (ex-Barcelona manager): “He sees passes that most people can only see whilst watching the game on TV, not ones that you can normally see on the pitch.” –
• Johan Cruyff: “For the world of football, Messi is a treasure because he is a role model for children around the world… Messi will be the player to win the most Ballons d’Or in history. He will win five, six, seven. He is incomparable. He’s in a different league.”
• Neymar: “I played with Messi, who is, for me, one of the greatest footballers of all time, and he is my idol in football.”
• Arsene Wenger: “Who is the Best Player in the World? Leo Messi. Who is the Best Player Ever? Leo Messi.”
• Javier Mascherano: “Although he may not be human, it’s good that Messi still thinks he is.”
• Samuel Eto’o: “Messi is God, as a person and even more as a player. I knew him when he was a boy and I’ve watched him grow. He deserves it all.”
• Diego Maradona: “I have seen the player who will inherit my place in Argentine football and his name is Messi. Messi is a genius.”
• Pele: “I like Messi a lot, he’s a great player. Technically, we’re practically at the same level.”
• John Terry: “Lionel Messi is quite clearly the best player ever. It’s a pleasure to pit myself against him and when I finish my career it’s something I can look back on and know I’ve tested myself against the very best.”
• Fabio Capello: “In my entire life I have never seen a player of such quality and personality at such a young age, particularly wearing the ‘heavy’ shirt of one of the world’s great clubs… Before a game, you can plan for everything. But Messi can produce a move that no-one expects and change the game in an instant.”
• Mario Gomez: “I am not crazy enough to compare myself with Messi because he is the best there ever was and the best there will ever be.”
• Adriano Galliani (AC Milano Chief): “Messi is the best player ever. And this is said by someone who has seen Maradona and Pele play.”
• Felipe Scolari: “The only bad thing about Ronaldo’s life is Messi. If it was not for him, Ronaldo would be the best player in the world for five years in a row.”
• Michael Owen: “I can’t believe anyone can have played the game of football as well as Messi.”
• Zinedine Zidane: “He is always going forwards. He never passes the ball backwards or sideways. He has only one idea, to run towards the goal. So as a football fan, just enjoy the show.”
• Zlatan Ibrahimovic: “Messi does not need his right foot. He only uses the left and he’s still the best in the world. Imagine if he also used his right foot, Then we would have serious problems.”
• Gary Lineker: “Fella’s a genius. Best ever by a distance in my life time. Never really saw Pele… Souness, Gullit, Venables and now Rooney agree Messi is the best they have seen. He plays a game with which we are not familiar.”
• Alan Shearer (Premier League all-time top scorer): “Messi the best ever. Goals. Skill. Work rate. Attitude. An artist.”
Joaquin Low: “Cristiano Ronaldo is sensational, a very good professional, an incredible goalscoring machine for many years, but Messi is the most complete player I have seen.”
• Paul Scholes: “I am not ashamed to admit that in the games against Barcelona I spent a lot of the time just hoping he would take up positions as far away from me as possible.”
• Frank Lampard: “Not only is he a genius on the ball that toys with defenders that dribbles and twists and turns, but the critical stuff, the really efficient stuff where he either scores goals or assists goals, he does brilliantly as well. As an attacking player, the most complete player in history. For sure, at least that I’ve seen live. Without a doubt.”
• Roy Keane: “I was a big fan of Maradona growing up and of the current crop Ronaldo is good but Messi is the best I’ve ever seen. I don’t dish out praise lightly but Messi deserves it. I look for weaknesses in his game and I can’t find them.”
• Gary Lineker: “Messi always makes the right decision, whether it’s a pass or a finish — he’s a little genius.”
• Jürgen Klopp: “Messi is the best. There must be life out there somewhere, on some other planet. Because he is too good and we are just too bad for him.”
• Zlatan Ibrahimovic: “Messi does not need his right foot. He only uses the left and he’s still the best in the world. Imagine if he also used his right foot, Then we would have serious problems.”
• Pep Guardiola: “Don’t write about him, don’t try to describe him. Just watch him.
• Victoria Azarenka: “Seeing Messi play is like watching a video game… What Messi does on a football field is simply unthinkable… The way he walks from side to side, and once he sees an opportunity, he simply creates magic.”
• Michael Owen: “I can’t believe anyone can have played the game of football as well as Messi.”
• Raúl González: “I was lucky that I play[ed] with Zidane, with Cristiano Ronaldo, with Ronaldo, with Figo… but against, I think Messi…
is very different; he makes everything look so easy, so effortless – even the impossible.”
• Diego Rovira: “The conversations between the opposing defenders were wonderful: – We can’t stop this kid. – No. – So what we going to do? – How should I know? Didn’t you just say that he can’t be stopped?”
• Raul (Real Madrid legend): “The other day I saw one of his games. He was running with the ball at a hundred per cent full speed, I don’t know how many touches he took, maybe five or six, but the ball was glued to his foot. It’s practically impossible.”
• Henk ten Cate: “Ronaldo is a top player, it’s a shame that he’s in Messi’s era — he’ll always be 2nd best regardless of the Ballon d’Or.”
