What I find funny from my friend here is he says we kids don't know nothing because we have short memories.....

Yet he has the audacity to say Maradona single handily help Argentina win the WC...back then Argentina had a beast of a team, just like Pele Brazil was a beast!

That Argentinian team wasnt the favourite to win the cup....

Messi once entered the bedroom of a girl with whom he hoped to score. The girl tells him to get comfortable and she leaves the room to go freshen up. To her amazement, when she returns, she finds him lying on the bed completely nude with two other naked guys and shouts; "WHAT'S GOING ON?"...Smiling Messi calmly replies: "I am sorry dear, but I can't perform without Xavi and Iniesta!"

:D

Maradona to an extent carried Argentina, and he certainly carried Napoli. He turned an average side into Italian champions, that takes some doing. And Argentina do have world class players in their set up apart from Messi, like Aguero and Tevez amongst others.

Yes, Pele had the luck of being in the same team as many of the greatest players, but still, Messi is in a class team with club and country yet Pele outshone him. Having a good team is somewhat overrated, we had a brilliant team in 06/07 but did it help Shevchenko score goals? No.

So, Messi isn't the GOAT because he didn't win the World Cup. Now, tell me how many times Pelé and Maradona have won the Champions League ?

Sorry..but thats a stupid argument. Maradona didnt play in a great side in Europe....His Napoli was an average European Side. Players are judged by what they have won. Messi for Argentina is absolutely pants compare to what he does at barca. He lacks the drive that maradona provided. When you talk about great players, like pele, zidane and Maradona, they have one thing in common. They are World Cup Winners. Maradona and Zidane played a stellar role in getting their teams to the finals and helping them win it. Messi so far is miles off doing that for Argentina. Hence my issue with people calling him the greatest player ever. Football is not just about club football.

Agreed, so far he hasn't even proven himself outside of Barca let alone on the International stage

his argument is apt actually. Wasn't it you who said maradonna single handedly took Argentina to a world cup and single handedly took napoli to a league title? Yet you say napoli didn't play in a good enough team for European success? Why did he not single handedly take them to success then? This is based on your rationale of course

I can't stand the argument that he hasn't won a World Cup yet. Club football and the Champions League has overtaken that as a benchmark of success.

No it hasn't. Any fool can win a CL (see also: Djimi Traore) but it takes a real champion to win a WC.
