There is only one Lionel Messi (Part 1)
Almost any star striker who is trying to make a name in the world of football is being compared to the Barcelona youth product Lionel Messi. The Argentinean maestro has won two Player of the Year awards in a row. With such a great goal scoring and assist
making record tied up to him, there is no doubt that he is better than all the other players that are currently trying to perform in their respective clubs.
The comparison between Lionel Messi and the former Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo is done quite frequently and there are a lot of debates regarding who is the best. The comparisons have now grown even more; especially after Cristiano Ronaldo signed
for Real Madrid.
The Argentinean maestro is without a doubt the best player at the moment. At such a young age, “Leo” has accomplished what many can only dream of doing.
There is no doubt that the Portuguese captain http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Leo-c22011 has played at every level but for the amount of time Cristiano
Ronaldo has played, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296 has to reach that.
Cristiano Ronaldo is definitely an extraordinary player with outstanding statistics. Despite the fact that the Portuguese captain has done wonders in front of goal, he simply cannot match with the statistics that the little Argentinean has produced over
the past two years.
Ronaldo has scored the highest amount of goals in Europe last season. However, it was Messi who was not only the highest goal scorer but also an outstanding assist maker for his team.
The Argentinean star can play in all the attacking positions – wing, centre forward, attacking midfielder and the new-found role of a false nine.
Lionel Messi scored more than forty goals two seasons ago and last season he managed to score more than fifty goals in all competitions. The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 number 10 is not fighting to become the best player of a particular year; in fact, he can now be known
as one of the best players in the history of the game.
Comparing the last two seasons played by Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi; Messi definitely outnumbers http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ronaldo-c31734’s goals for the Spanish Giants Real Madrid.
Lionel Messi has scored 100 goals in the last two seasons. On the other hand, Cristiano Ronaldo has scored 86 goals. The amount of goals scored per minute are very high when it comes down to Ronaldo; however, Lionel Messi has been a consistent performer
and he has shown that he can easily evade injuries.
Recently, Lionel Messi was compared to many upcoming players. Out of all the players in the world, the Italian striker http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mario-Balotelli-c23937 was being compared to Lionel Messi.
The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan striker is not even close to the class of the Argentinean maestro. Balotelli is still very young and has a lot to prove in the future. It is not even safe to say that he is not even close to Cristiano Ronaldo who is currently second
to Lionel Messi.
