i dont think messi is the best player in the world but what does he have hey ? Just the usual dribbling ability, Can he provide a decent cross ? i never saw him providing a fine cross like tevez was able to do. Can messi play different ranged passes ? nope doubt it again he only plays simple basic passes along the ground which anyone can do and you call him the best playmaker. Does he have the strength ? It's just that his popular for that solo goal and became lucky to be called the next maradona. messi. Carlos tevez can dribble good maybe not like messi but almost the same. He can take free kicks proved for west ham lot of times and will for man utd. Can head the ball unlike messi. Has built strength. Can cross the ball and play ambitious long balls with his vision as he proeved it for man utd with number of assists to rooney berbatov and ronaldo. And has the stamina of a bull.
