I don't know what's all the fuss about Messi Messi Messi ...
Westi, We are not talking Real - Barcelona here , We are taking football so please be logical
With all the respest I have for Maradona , I would like to refresh your memory on something
Maradona:
'Pablo Aimar is the only current footballer I'd pay to watch,' says Diego Maradona of the former River Plate prodigy. 'He's been the best player in Argentina over the last couple of years and is even more talented than Riquelme or Saviola. He's an adorable kid, too. The Valencia fans will idolise him.
I do admit and recognize Messi as a talent but being next to Maradona or being praised at the age of 18 ?
Westi Do you remember Norman whiteside at the age of 17 ? I wish I could find some highlights.
So far all I have seen from messi was a speedy 18 years old who cut in through the defence Diagonally ...
figo (at the age of 18) when they won the World youth Championship was even better
Is messi a free kick specialist ? is Messi a good penalty taker ?
Can messi dribble 3-4 players as Ronaldinho does? Is he a good header?
is he a good finisher and ets etc etc...
he has to prove all these to be a half ass Maradona ....
Bootom line for the time being
His name is bigger than him
