Lionel Messi was Barcelona’s top goalscorer, best playmaker, and best dribbler. He created chances, scored goals, and made a difference whenever his team needed him. Even Xavi and Iniesta couldn’t match his assist numbers. He scored in two of Barcelona’s four Champions League finals during his time at the club. There came a point when Messi was at the top of almost every statistical category at Barcelona. I bet you can’t name a single major attacking statistic in which he wasn’t among the best. And you woke up one day and decided to disrespect my GOAT? People love saying, “No player is bigger than the club.” But that argument doesn’t apply to Messi in the way you think it does. Messi became bigger than football itself, and no club will ever be able to erase what he did for Barcelona. If you don’t know what to tweet about, just log out.
