I'm giving us some reasons on why Pele is the greatest ever football player

1. Pele was a black man playing when white dominated everything and yet he surpassed them without using drugs, of complaining of VAR corruption or pitch problem ;Dor his sister coming to accuse FIFA of trying to destroy her brother

2. Pele is the only player to win 3 world cups

3. Pele has won the Ballondor a record 7 times

4. Pele has the record of being the highest goal scorer in a single year (127 goals)

5. Pele scored a total of 1283 career goals

6. Pele was voted player of the century (a record he shares with Maradona), and was included in the greatest footballing team along with Maradona, Zidane and Messi with Cr7, delima etc on the bench in 2013.. These were the peak years of Messhit and ororo.....

DanXplore:
Lol. Player of the century is given to players who played between 1900 and 2000. Messi started playing much later.

Lol... Stop wasting your time bro... The same Messi was selected amongst football best ever team that same year.... ... Just accept Pele as the goat

I'm going to create a topic that shows why Pele is the football goat.. Others come 2nd even Maradona

DanXplore:
Lol in what universe is player of the century better than as many ballon d'or? Remember that Pelle played in the era where football was less sophisticated unlike Messi.

Also, I think it is more ideal to consider a player's individual performance than collective. No matter how good a player is, if you have very useless defenders who concede goals all the time, you will not go far in footbal and this could be illustrated well with the match Barca had against Liverpool in the most recent UEFA

Don't forget that Messi won gold for his country at the junior level and so presuming that he is not GOAT because he has not won a thing for his country is out of place. Also, Messi has taken his country to world cup finals atleast twice or even more. All the key playmakings and goals where made by him. What more do you want from Messi?

Oga everyone knows Messi is great... Even in Messi best years, when he scored 91 calendars goals in a year (2nd highest ever), Pele was still selected as the best player of the century in 2013

No matter what you type or think

Pele
Maradona

Will always be ahead of any player

DanXplore:

Real footballers know that Messi is the goat. As Zlatan Ibrahimovic would say, " Ronaldo is a trained product".

@bolded. To start with, they have not won Ballon d'or and Fifa men's player award as much as Messi, neither has their goals been nominated for puskas as much as Messi.

Puskas that Messi has never won?? So nomination is what defines greatness.. Lol

Ogbeni what has Messi acheived for him to be termed the greatest player ever over Pele, Maradona, Zidane, Delima or even CR7

Kingdollar28:
If great players are been decided by how many clubs they have played, I bet zlatan ibrahimovic would have been the greatest player on planet...

Without sentiment...ask yourself, which club can buy Messi and maintain his wages??

U #penaldo fanboy

Lol... Wetin Ibra win with him own club to club??

SUNNINO:
Ronaldo excellent goal scorer, but after that nothing else, Messi scores, dribble, assist and set records. No need for comparison. One is human and one an ghost.

Lol... So Ronaldo does not dribble?? He does not assist?? He doesn't pass?? He doesn't create chances?? He doesn't mark??

Lol.... Baba you better rest before northern cabal set u up

opineflu:

Why did they run, and why was the FSARS chasing them??
Were they cultists or yahoo or armed robbers??

If they are any of the above, then they had to run... If not , the FSARS should be prosecuted

Seal team is back sha

Most girls give it out so that you don't keep disturbing them at church or in the streets etc

For those of us that watched sledgehammer series and renta ghosts

Tajbol4splend:

EPL
Fa cup
Carling cup
Community shield

EPL player of the season
PFA players player of the season

He's more decorated than your best player

We are not talking of just stats here

Mourinho based his criteria on talent and skills alone...

However based on skill, talent, achievements (Country and Club), presence, enigma

Pele
Maradona

Zidane
Ronaldo Nazario

Cr7
Messi

Cruyff
Di stephano
Ronaldinho

Others......

yungsmart:
Lies pure lies. Mr lienus just be patching stats Your comments reeks of ignorance and misinformation.
Messi has most individual awards and most national awards.Pele has most goals. Alves has most trophies. Ronaldo does not has have most national trophies
You failed to say in more games. Messi still has two more years so enjoy the moment now

I'm comparing between Ronaldo and Messi.. Why bring Pele in??

igetdata:
He now has 27 goals more than messi but has played 145 games more.

Last two years he had almost 50 goals over messi

Last year he had close to 40 goals over messi

Now he has just 27 over messi

By the time both of them are done, messi will take this last record and the stats will show to unborn generations that messi bested him in everything and with lesser games.

This is annihilation as we know it. Messi has won the war.

Most world best award. messi
Most golden shoe. Messi
Most trophies Messi
Most assist. Messi
Most club goals. Messi
Most dribbles. Messi
Most solo goals. Messi

I am waiting for the day someone will say who is better between pele and ronaldo as they have always done with messi

Envious soul

Most individual awards. CR7
Most decorated awards. CR7
Most decorated trophies CR7
Most goals. CR7
Most UCL goals. CR7
Most UCL trophies. CR7
Most UCL assists. CR7
Most national trophies. CR7

You cannot continue being in one team and be pumping up stats

Topmaike007:
The list is incomplete without our papa ejima Mikel obi, he started as attacking midfielder but now a defensive midfielder all thanks to mourinho the destiny killer

How did Mourinho kill his destiny?? Shift jare... Na only Mikel be the player wey dem convert??

You know Wetin Sneijder, Pirlo, Seedorf etc, play for field and how many conversions??

FloxySmart:
I hate Bale, he’s the reason Hazard isn’t doing so well in Madrid

Bale is a jealous and envious soul, Buh how is he disturbing Hazard??

greatbrian:
A pity how most nairalanders here are quick to talk against the military. HV never seen them praising the army for once but they are fast to criticise curse and even speak ill.

Bro Nigerians love soldiers and also pray for them... We only speak up against cruelty against civilians... Stop doing the job of police except in extreme cases

uuzba:
You guys will have muscle and everything, but you will not join Nigeria Army.
Should the country run without an army?
If you have no Army, you automatically have no borders or anything called country.
Benin, Chad, Niger and Cameroon surrounding Nigeria will just expand their borders and claim our land as their own.

The NO 1 work of soldiers and army is to prevent this and that is what is happening.

We know and respect this bro... But soldiers should respect themselves amongst civilians ... You are not bigger than American soldiers

PerfectJUSTICE:
Hope say the person wey hold the camera go still dey there when we return for the final episode

Why not "You"... Why "we"

Lol.. We know

He can't even replace Bale sef

However Hazard is Hazard, he deserves to play in a team like Madrid

He is a suerstar and also a great player

ursullalinda:
It's warm water for me anytime any day.... cold water scares me

So rain never beat you before??

Mike4S:
Yes, he is fake and can only be allowed on the ground of going back to university and get an education degree or going for PGDE.

Lol.... Let me go for my NCE then... However I own the school, and I employed teachers.. B.ed to NCE... And I also have a startup engineering firm (my degree ), so are you saying I'm not qualified to own the school??

deltateam:
You are very wicked. This your post should earn you life imprisonment with hard labour.

What if the school collects a school fees of #5000 per term?

Saintbusco1:
.YOU ARE WRONG FROM YOUR FIRST POINT TO THE END.... Many admission seekers like me voluntarily chose to study EDUCATION not that I couldn't get my choice of study(am glad to be an NCE and a BEd holder).... people like you are the people TRCN should flush out of the profession, You see the mentality of people towards teaching is so worse that teaching job should be made for those strictly interested in teaching as a profession... Fafunwa said too many of our teachers are those who studied diff course in school but venture into teaching all because they can't find job.... IF TRCN CAN FLUSH OUT THOSE THAT DID NOT STUDY EDUCATION COURSE OR THOSE NOT HAPPY TO BE A TEACHER until then will teachers salary be attractive and teaching profession will be respected in our society... but as it is in our society now the Reward of a good and Qualified Teacher is in heaven...

So you want a private school that collects 10k as school fees, to pay you 100k per month??

Or you think B.ed graduates will like to teach in these small schools ? Wake up guy ... TRCN ain't doing shit

Thorby:
You can't be so certain. Not all, you can only say some.
Besides, being in any discipline is to make you a professional.
You can't say because you know law, that makes u a lawyer or you can prescribed drugs well, that makes you a pharmacist.

They have body to make them professionals and to curb out the fake ones among them.

So a B.Eng graduate teacher in a school is fake or not allowed

Binikingdowm:
you are really a joker. Your ronaldo is a fraud. Always scoring against teams facing relegation hahaha

Like Spain na
