Messi is brilliant in la liga and also for argentina in world cup qualifiers, however when he played in world cup 2006 and 2010 he didnt perform and hasnt perfromed against english clubs in cl. so does anyone think he would still b as good in premier league ??

    You can't be serious. He actually has the ability to score when he wants.

    In comparison to Clarke yep messi is overrated
  • cafctomcafctom
    By far and away the most technically gifted footballer I've ever seen. I will be amazed if anyone comes along in the next 20-30 years who is anywhere near as good as him.
  • ValleyGaryValleyGary
    i think he's brilliant.

    BUT whenever he's on tv i turn the sound off. Commentators with their pants down over him wind me up.

    Best player the world has ever seen IMHO.

    The question is whether he would be as good in the Premier League as he is in La Liga.

    I'm pretty sure he would be, but he'd have to take a few more robust challenges (& he does get rough treatment in La Liga too)

    Parky wouldn't have been able to find a position for him anyway ;-)

    Disappointed you didn't follow it up with, "could he do it on a wet and windy Tuesday evening in Stoke?"

    i doubt he would be as good as he is in la liga due to the higher quality of the premier league this is shown by cristiano ronaldo who was less successful however if he did play over here i have no doubt he would be the best player in the league

    Chelsea definitely showed last week the Premier League is of a higher quality to La Liga

    Yep, reckon so and I think someone else has already done this thread too to get the reaction we're getting now but still people can't help get drawn into it.

    Sort of my point as well. Annoys me so much when someone says Premier League is a better standard than La Liga or vice versa. I don't think anyone could definitively say at the moment which is better. Both have different syles, both have different players. Yes each league may be suited to a certain type of player does that mean one or the other is a lower standard than the other?

    He would still be top scorer in the premiership, probably not as many but still will be the best player in the world and likely ever!
