I’ve seen Cruyff ,Maradona and Zidane but still don’t want to say any of them is the best footballer there has ever been in the history of the game,why do Messi fans think otherwise ?
There are two possible viewpoints:
1. Best ever person to play the game of football
2. Footballer who stood out the most for being good at the game
I have no doubt that Cruyff was incredible. But the Cruyff turn today, is a fairly run of the mill move. That doesn’t take away from him having invented it and what it meant to football at the time, but it does show that the technical standard has come on since then.
What Messi and Ronaldo do with the ball, those you mentioned could only dream of.
