best player in the world

lmao , getachew i think has neevr ever said anything at­ all belionging in reality lmao... a true real fan ;)

getachew, Messi had well more assists than Ronaldo this­ season. You say he has no assists, he had over or­ around 10 in La Liga along with his goals.

You­ must ignore stats, never watch Barca, and/or simply­ ignore reality and live in your own little world.

getachew44, Ronaldo plays the role of Xavi, Iniesta,­ Messi, Henry, Eto'o all in one!!!?? Messi plays­ for himself and not the club, but Ronaldo plays for the­ club?

Put the crack pipe down for 15 minutes why­ don't you? Because that stuff will kill you! :)­

How can you even justify that Ronaldo plays more with­ his team than Messi. That is completely and utterly­ ridiculous. Look at the stats from the CL game. Messi­ had like 50 GP and 11 BP (good pass/bad pass) or­ something like that. Ronaldo was 20 GP 8 BP or­ something. Messi gives ball to his teammates more­ than 3 times that of Ronaldo.

Ronaldo is all those­ players in 1 because he TRIES to do everything these­ players do ALL BY HIMSELF. Ronaldo in CL final was­ this. Get ball, dribble forward as fast as he can,­ blast 50 yard shot or get ball stolen off of him. He­ didn't even look to get anyone other than himself­ involved in the game. As the passing stats clearly­ indicated.

@ 40 Madrid still won't win,they need stability and­ that Perez will just keep changing players and­ managers.U'll see

what we are missing here is the team work.. xavi and­ iniesta create.. but with messi drawing 2 or more­ defenders towards himself, they get more space to­ operate.. and then on they can put the killer through­ ball or the cross..
in the final, all three were­ phenomenal - xavi, iniesta and messi... etoo was­ brilliant too - scoring the first goal and then on­ creating havoc with his runs.. henry was clearly­ subdued. not fully fit. so xavi and iniesta did not­ involve him much in the game...
defence.. pique was­ phenomenal.. toure was out of place once in a while..­ clearly holding mid suits him best.
puyol was again­ brilliant. had rooney and ronaldo in his pocket. also­ created the messi goal with his interception..
every­ one of these were essential for the barca victory.. one­ single player cannot be chosen. but if i had to, i­ would pick xavi. he was everywhere. he just ruled the­ midfield. and dont know how but it seems impossible to­ mark him. this barca team seems unbeatable on its best­ day... i wish the joy continues... :)

Barcelona is a football God factory... no other team­ produces so many and then to top it off they know how­ to buy as well... Every other team in the world is­ screwed for the next 2-4 years AT LEAST.

ignore that getachew loser. he still hurts when messi­ destroyed his team (real madrid)

if it wasnt iniesta then it was pique. 3 blocks which­ would have been goals were blocked by him...

there can only be one champion among champions, barca­ has taking the lead and no one can take it away from­ them.congratulations and really wishing you more treble­ next season.we are solidly behind you.

surely iniesta has been outstanding all this season but­ barca is not a one man team sure the have the likes of­ messi, iniesta, xavi and etooo etc but they work­ togather they play passionative football and thats what­ helped them win the treble well done barca am proud of­ use

surely barca are the best club in the world

The forward 3 doesnt really matter for Barca,­ they're known for just how much goals they scored­ altogether, but without Barca's midfield, i dont­ think they will score anywhere near what they've­ done. Also, a big congratulations to Pep Guardiola who­ has done at barca in his first season. That is nothing­ short of miracle. A real contender for the best manager­ ever. Big future awaits.

Man United fan here.

I don't get all this fuss­ about Lionel Messi, to be honest. Okay, Messi is­ undoubtedly a great player but in my opinion Iniesta­ proved himself. Why? It was Iniesta's late­ equaliser against Chelsea that got Barcelona into the­ final, leaving aside the polemics about the referee,­ and it was Iniesta who set up the first, perhaps­ killer, goal against United. Therefore in two games he­ was decisive- one could argue that it was INIESTA who­ won the CL 2008-2009 for Barcelona and not Lionel­ Messi- if any ONE player can ever be held to be so­ decisive, afterall it's a team effort, isn't­ it?

the selfish boy will end like ronaldinho wait 2/3­ years
atleast ronaldinho help alot he make alot of­ assist
i hope ronaldo come to la liga and end this­ arrogant and selfish once and for all

who is ronaldo? Puyol walk over him
and getachew44 this­ article is about barca players not madshit
i­ haven't seen more stupied than you are simply­ @#$%
dream somewhere else

Well, it is just sad to see that Man U fans are just­ jealous of Messi, simply because they want to compare­ him with Ronaldo, that gutted cheat (who is leaving­ your club anyway!). Messi played a very big game and­ you can't say he didn't. Man U defence was­ shattered to pieces because of his role in central­ midfield. You can't say he did nothing. You­ jealousy will kill you. Who is Ronaldo? a complete­ player with very great cheating abilities and thick­ ego!

F@#k yea Barcelona 4 life
