Well it has come to the point that I just have to say something. Messi is absolutely amazing. In his past 3 games he has scored 8 goals (3 v. valencia, 2 v. Stuttgart, and 3 v. Real Zaragoza). And these goals are not just tape ins or lucky goals. Most of these are purely brilliant spectacles that only a few players in the world could replicate. I have added a couple of youtube links which show some of these goals. The first is the game against Valencia and it is a highlight tape of the entire game and in Spanish but Messi's brilliance starts at the 2 minute markwith some of his first half stuff and then moves to his second half brilliance but his best goal starts at 2:35. Enjoy...
The next video is of Messi vs. Stuttgart and his brilliance in that game. This video is also a game highlight and in Spanish. Messi's first goal is almost right away, the second goal if you notice is orchestrated by Messi and finished by Pedro. The man is amazing and is so influential...
The last video is the most recent game against Real Zaragoza. Messi once against scores a hat-trick and is pulled down in the box which lead to Ibrahimavic's penalty shot goal. The second goal is the one you want to watch.. over and over and over again...
This last video is not commentated by anyone but has music in the back round and is a highlight of the game..
The first goal is a nice headed finish but the second is amazing. Takes the ball from a defender about midfield then beats one player and then races toward the goal before beating two more and clinically finishing. It is reminiscent of Maradona in '86 and Owen in '98
Is Leo Messi the best player in the world?? At the moment I would have to say yes (though I am admittedly biased) and the only person who is even close to him would be Wayne Rooney. But at the moment there is not a more influential player, for his club team, on the planet. Lets hope as Barca fans his form continues and that is does so in the World Cup as well
