Messi is one great player who has brought fortune and fame to Barcelona and despite everything has remained faithful to the club that made him. That is commendable.
That's his personality, consistency, an attribute that makes him my best player.
Yes Messi is the greatest player of our time with a humility that differentiates him from the rest.
Totally agree with you though Ronaldo happens to also be my man.
A very commendable act and I see him staying back at Barcelona till the end of his career.
