Amazing that some of our fans were arguing against signing Messi when it looked like he had a chance with his problems at Barca. For me, he’s still the best, better than Mbappe. He makes teams greater than the sum of their parts, whereas the Mbappes and Ronaldos, great players though they are, need to have everything set up for them as the focal point of a team. And France are lucky, they have another (Griezmann) who can assume the mantle, if Mbappe is marked out of the game.I loathe the pundits and fans trying to be hip and trendy in suggesting Messi is past it and no longer effective. Pretending to have some great insight by predicting the demise of the best player ever.
its obvious he is still levels above. Even among the other high performers in this Argentina team such Enzo, Martinez, Alvarez, Messi is still levels above. Whilst Mpabbe can lay claim to being better than him as of right now, I dont think anyone else is worthy enough to be elevated above Messi even as a 35 year old in the twilight of his career.

Mbappé is lightyears behind Messi.
Literally, the only thing Mbappé is stronger than Messi at is pace (something that Adama Traoré also has over Messi).
Yeah the hype about Mbappe is weird I watch him and think Nahh he isn’t in the same conversation as a Messi Ronaldo or what some saying over there Pele! He comes across to me as a Arrogant child a character to detest a speed merchant and to be fair he does score goals but so do a lot of top strikers!
