We need wingers that take on defenders so as for other attackers to see space to run to and wreck havoc. Benzema was feasting on Vinicius brilliance last season, scoring easy goals. Suarez scored goals at will those years, because of Messi and Neymar destroying everything in their front.

We don't need wingers that can't dribble past opponents. Mount should face his midfield role, while Sterling should look for another club.

My problem with Pulisic is strength, he is mostly bullied.

Omo ,those penduist remains the most shameless fan base ever

One even told me mbappe caused the first penalty and showed me video of 2018 wc against Argentina as prove. . They are confused, shameless and in severe pain. I think they will heal.

I never thought a day like this will come when penduist will be using pele to hold body against messi E come be like say pele came back from retirement. Ah! Messi you do this one.

Na my g from super eagles thread ,he is a die hard chelsea fan

Oh now I see where he is coming from, that super eagle thread na another Comedy Central, the football take there na die .

Niklaus398:
So?. He is clearly making a point. U want him to shut up when apparently the ball graze his "Hair"?

They said his hair didn't contribute to the ball changing direction so it is not his goal but it isn't that.

And even with that.. this changes nothing.

Everything is hate for u. Clean hate. U have hated Ronaldo for ages so no dey lie

See your life for outside . It is now “he is clearly making a point”.

andrewbaba44:
He is not

Then who is that? You know am?

forgiveness:
Meaning they didn't win without Pele.

Messi didn't do anything meaningful in this world cup apart from tapping in 5 penalties.

They could have won it without him too.

This guy na Trevor, nothing wey anybody wan tell me.

Meanwhile,

Chelsea problems in one photo,soft ass white boys,

Only Havertz is actually trying, the rest na Southampton material.

Niklaus398:
no you're the one that is emotional.
show me when he did that and I'll apologize to you..it is that simple.

U dey make hate hate hate cover ur eyes. Always finding fault with everything Ronaldo does

Even if he did pointed to an official he scored( which he did not)...there's nothing bad there. To him he would've felt he touched the ball or graze the ball then being surprised he wasn't given the goal. It just him trying to ask a question ( if that indeed happened)

After that, you did not see him mention that goal in the postmatch interview

Here is when he protested that the goal touched his head. You will rest now. Everything is not hate.

Ballzproblem2:
messi I already hated from , Ronaldo fans and mbappe fanbois, no what he does people we still hating is part of life and I doubt he cares ,he has his friends and family that lives him genuinely,things going well for him in life ,you think he cares what teenagers online thinks?

Not from cr7 teenagers online I’m talking of French FA, psg and some of the supporters. Messi is still in psg.

Ballzproblem2:
don't care ,en don win be say en don we , anything wey happen to am now won't affect him really much ,he is at the end of his career,what's the worst that can happen

I don’t want his action to bring hate to Messi. Messi is my concern.

andrewbaba44:
How was he wrong?

I know you are trying to be sincere

Martinez was wrong according to everyone who dont like Argentina ,but they cheer amrabat for posting this on his Insta story

Do you know what burning someone’s picture means? Both are wrong.

Ballzproblem2:
as e dey sweet us e dey pain Dem,as e dey pain Dem e dey sweet us

Martinez was wrong. Let call a spade a spade.

andrewbaba44:
Fifa 11 na dead talk and agenda

He won more trophies than them

Show me makalele World Cup trophy ?

Show me kante European championship

I haven’t seen you trolling busi though

Like I said those are team success, football is not lawn tennis. If he wasn’t individually recognized while Barca and Spain were winning those trophies what does that tell you about him.

andrewbaba44:
They started it ,they won’t keep Barca legends like busi out of their mouths

League titles ,international trophies, champions league ,club World Cup ,busquets have won more than their legends ,they should learn to choose who to troll wisely .

How does team success that you didn’t even make fifa 11 for once make him better than makelele or Kante. Bousquet was a carry along in those trophies.

Messi scored his 91 goal today in 2012. Below are the highlights

ThierryJay:
Nah this capping is too much.

Messi won best player award in 2 Copas (2015 and 2021). He actually won a third in 2016 (when he scored 6 goals) but he rejected it and it was given to Sanchez.

Best player in 2 World cups which even Pele could not achieve.

Best player in Olympic 2008.

So how would you objectively call a six-time international tournament best player a "flop in too many international tournaments" I guess in your dictionary, Mbappe flopped as well in this World Cup just because he didnt win.

Instead of you to own up to your own prior admissions about the quality of Pele's goal statistics back in 2010 you are trying to save face with some disjointed clarifications when confronted with your about-turn like Piers Morgan. Who says you could not have hopped on the Pendu train sometimes after 2011 to warrant your subsequent comments? At least Piers was honest enough to admit that.

Ibime go change mouth in the future. He is a nostalgia man so can’t still believe messi is now rated above pele.

Debroslink:
I don't care if Pele won golden ball and golden Boot at COPA. The main point is that he lost and couldn't add COPA to his CV. Even when Messi lost to Chile, he still won the golden ball.

Ronaldo has 5 UCL against Messi's 4,yet no one in his right senses can place Ronaldo above Messi anymore. Or can you place Cafu above Messi because he has 2 WCs?

At the end of the day, pair Pele and Messi's career together, Pele will dwarf over Messi.

Messi @ 35, WC title with best player. Still playing top level football.
Pele @ 35, playing retirement package soccer in US.

Be patient with Ibime, he will change mouth soon and confess that Messi is the greatest footballer of all time.

Ballzproblem2:
the way Brazilians are angry we got Andrey for £20m you will think the money will reach everybody,them like money pass my Igbo brothers, anyways welcome Santos, can't stand jorginho in that Midfield anymore

I am yet to know the guy’s actual position, is it CM, LM, CDM or box to box type?

This is the greatest banter in football history, I mean everywhere you go cr7 fan are being molested with bants. Lol

Arizoner:
next time leave god out of this. God doesn't watch football. He has pressing issues to attend to.

See God PA. Lol

Phraser:
Bla, bla, bla. More condescension from someone who thinks you do not know football if you are not 150 years old. I'm a Barça fan, and you think I wouldn't know of R9's goal?

But that's not the point. The question is: which of Pele's goals remains a part of modern-day pop culture, just like Maradona's solo run against England or Zidane's volley against Bayer Leverkusen?

No one cares if he was the first to dribble on the moon. We are talking about his greatness/legacy/popularity/impact. You say he has more than Messi. So which of his goals are instantly recognizable by many in pop culture today?

Whats ibime’s metrics in rating pele ahead of Messi if I may ask? Three wc trophy which is a team success and he was carried to two. A solo goal? Talent? Impact? lol. Ibime let it go bruv.

*light weed*.

Arizoner:
stop mentioning the name of god in vain. pagan

Of course I’m thanking the creator for Messi’s triumphant at just concluded wc but because you are blinded by hate you couldn’t comprehend. Nor let hate kee you, take it easy on yourself.

A40:
I gave you two players that actually did the carrying with tangible evidence don't tell me about a man that scored 1 goal in 13 matches leading anything. That's disrespectful to the likes of Rebic, Mandzukic, Perisic that were doing the lifting

Portugal have underperformed too, especially in 2014, and to an extent 2018 but Ronaldo scored 4 of their 5 goals. And this is supposed to be a stacked Portugal team like you lot swear they are. And yet 1 man scored 80% of their goals

As for Croatia they won 4 penalty shootouts. How can you with a straight face tell me Modric did any leading with a team that won 4 penalty shootouts!! You guys should fear God

Modric was the best player of the tournament hence the works carried. Cr7 couldn’t lead his team to semi or final

No fugazi

A40:
Remind me how many goals and assists Modric provided.

And don't tell me he's a midfielder. Wesley Sneijder scored 5 goals from midfield, Lothar Matthaus scored 4 as a libero

Whats the primary job of a CM? Does Croatia have more talent than Portugal? What stop your cr7 who is a goal machine from leading his team to final or semi?

forgiveness:
Who teĺl say na one game Pele take win wc?

Argentina is what? You want to make excuses for Messi, abi?

Won two ojoro best player wey Blatter FIFA confirmed it was a big mistake.

Pele was carried to two wc win, he only did better in one.

andrewbaba44:


When the Netherlands equalized 2-2 the kind shout and vibration tension me ,even the game no tension me reach like that

That final come worst

All these drama made Messi wc win memorable and defeated all the agenda of the tournament being rigged for him. Is our God not wonderful.

andrewbaba44:
Ronaldo fans

Omo cr7 just gather toxic people as fan. Lol

Thank you for this piece egbon.

Raumdeuter-
[b]Pele himself never singlehandedly win a world cup he was just part of the team.

In 1958 he was a 17yr old and Didi, Zagalo and Vava were greater than him in the Brazilian set up

In 1962 it was Garrinchas world cup with help from Zito and Vava. Only 2 players can be said to have won the world cup single handedly Garrincha 1962 and Maradona 1986

1970 was an all star team, Jaizinho, Carlos Alberto, Tostao, Gerson.

The Pele talk reminds me of old men in Nigeria who would always say "In the days of Odegbami and thunder Balogun" Football of those days are not technical at all, nothing like tactics, Its basically everybody enter the field. It was reported that the Brazilian team of 1982 even the keeper can dribble.

Pele na Bad belle dey worry am SIMPLE!!!! And anything pele says should be taken opposite. he say an African country winning the world cup before the end of last Century and it never happened, He saw godwin okpara winning Player of the year: the guy dey jail now, He said Nicky Butt and Emile Heskey would be the players of the tourney of japan Korea 2002 and they were dud throughout

Scolari once said If you are preparing a team, Ask for Peles advice and do the exact opposite. Anyone Pele recommends as striker should be the goalkeeper and anyone he says would be the star should be dropped!!![/b]

OhBritannia:
How the argument went from messi must win the world cup first to be the greatest of all time To Pele has three world cups so he is greater than Messi

This is how GOD confuses haters

It is shameful honestly and Ibime went so low this time.
