Barcelona boss Luis Enrique declared Lionel Messi "the best player in history" after the Argentina star's last-minute winner at Real Madrid blew open the La Liga title race.
i dont get this whole "best player in history" nonsense.
messi hasnt
1) scored the most goals ever
2) won a world cup
3) have the best stats in all competitions he competed in
4) played in every league in the world
if you look at his performances for barca compared to that of argentina, its nowhere near the same player.
if they said "he is the best club player ever", i would agree somewhat...but compared to what pele and maradona had to work with, messi has it easy in barcelona.
He might be one of the best in the world but not the greatest.
