WHY MESSI IS BETTER THAN MARADONA, AND MAYBE PELE

Messi have always been compared to greats since his young age of the play. Here Givemegoal.com writes why he is better than rest of the legends.

1. He won more at club level at age 25 than Maradona and Pele in their whole career.

2. He is the greatest player at club level ever! This is a FACT not opinion

3. His numbers at 50% of his career are already comparable to Maradona’s “100%”.

4. He won more European trophies and individual awards at 50% of his career than at Maradona’s and Pele’s whole career.

5. He was in the greatest ever talk since he was 22-23, respectively Maradona and Pele only at the end of their careers in other words 27+.

6. He’s a better scorer than both. Same dribbling than Maradona and better than Pele. However he is faster than Maradona and has better vision, passing and movement than Maradona.

7. Maradona won his World Cup at age of 26, same age that Messi will play at WC 2014 with very high chances of winning it and ending this conversation forever!

8. Will not include records because it wont be fair.

9. Could have played for the Spanish National Team, but instead chose his home country.

10. Close to being the greatest Argentinian scorer ever, already surpassed Maradonas goals. Also was seen as a flop in world cup at a young age wich proves how good he was.

Trophies that people ignore:
– He won U-20 World Cup and was the best player
– Won the Olympics
– Got the highest transfer offer for any player in the history of the sport

CONCLUSION:

Maradona and Pele have a World Cup argued by many as the pinnacle of the sport.
However Messi has Champions league and other club trophies that.
