Forgot that was on. Thanks. I think it's at 4pm our time.
lol, the Messi GOAT thing, it annoys me when you get old farts (40/50+) who saw the likes of Best and Maradona play who always say one of those is the best. Just smacks of elitism, as if they can see something in football that we can't because they're somehow smarter.
It's funny as well because, all of Messi's games are broadcast live in their entirety where we can watch his talent with unrivaled consistency, whereas Maradona could only be watched on TV in the World Cup, most of his club games would have been impossible to watch for the British fan.
Messi's critics, for me, prove he is still one of the most, if not the most, underrated footballers in the world.
