who cares?, would be pointless comparing great players from the past, different era different game.
Yes. And no.
Lol your youtube clip is blocked. Was funny when messi nutmegged fernandinho and milner in the first half of the game
No, Paulinho is.
Probably the most all round gifted, runs the midfield as well as scores goals like pele and Iniesta all in one player. So maybe yes, certainly think he is far better all round than Ronaldo.
Watched a lot of pele, great player, amazing finisher but the best player, not for me. Maradonna is closest to Messi but ruined his career to some degree, Zindane and Cruyff were amazing to watch but for all round consistent brilliance Messi is the best I have ever seen.

This fella is the best ever.
The end.
Beat me too it. Before their time.
Yes he is. He's been playing world class football for X amount of years straight and at least five of those years he's been out of this world. A shame he ran out of gas in the World Cup (QF and forward).
Messi has made players like Xavi and Iniesta appear as secondary. When Messi is "poor" he's still world class or on its fringes (see World Cup 2014 for example). When he retires we will all be glad to have been around for his and Ronaldo's era. He will be talked about as one of the greats for years and years.

Maradona isn't close.

- the stupidity of you're comment baffles me, you didn't read the headline and you clearly didn't see the video
To whom? He won a world cup virtually on his own. Unbelievable skill for a fat little fucker.
The brazilian guy sitting in the stands an anfield today was a decent player back in his day
Messi would have scored 100 goals every season if you sent him back in time.
It's very hard to even compare though. I guess that's why it's better to go by best player every decade.
