True Talk. It's only Mbappe that is standing shoulder to shoulder to a 35yrs old Messi at the moment. Omo their re levels to these things abeg.😎
Re: Messi, Mbappe, Other Nominees For Laureus World Sportsman Of The Year Award by OJEEMAH(m):
Messi competed with Kaka
Messi competed with Ronaldo
Messi competed with Lewandoski
Messi still dey compete with Mbappe & other young players of this generation.

Man is so humble and has never opened his mouth to label himself the GREATEST OF ALL TIMES.

All the major titles Pele won, Messi did.
All the major titles Maradona won, Messi did.
All the major titles Ronaldo won, Messi did.

Talk about goals, Messi name Dey there.
Talk about assists, Messi name dey there.
Talk about dribbles, Messi name dey there.
Talk about pass accuracy, Messi name dey there.
Talk about creativity and vision, Messi name dey there.
Talk about free kicks, Messi name dey there.

When we call am the GREATEST, it wasn’t a mistake. No other GOAT tick all the boxes except the S.I UNIT of football ( Lionel Andres Messi)

Words on marble.
Baba is still competing wit players of this generation, despite his age. Who can do that if not a certain Messi.

Messi has the right to b arrogant and proud. He has the right to look down on other players and managers, he has the right to call himself the GOAT. Buh Baba has never done any of these. His humility should b a case study.
