While Cristiano Ronaldo is undoubtedly one of the greatest football GOATs, Argentine star and Barca top scorer Messi is one of a kind. Here is why Leo Messi is the Best Player in the World.

According to the Coaches Voice, Lionel Messi is not only widely recognised as the world’s best active player, he is also widely recognised as the best of all time.

As the most influential player in the team – Pep Guardiola’s all-conquering Barcelona of 2008-2012 – similarly considered the best the world has seen, he is also remarkably decorated.

Messi has 6 Ballon d’Or trophies while CR7 has 5

Before the conclusion of his 34th year , his total of 34 winners medals gave him more than any other player in the club’s history, and largely because he had surpassed César Rodríguez as their record goalscorer.

It is therefore little surprise that Leo Messi has been awarded the Ballon d’Or trophy a record six times – in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2015 and 2019 – and he almost certainly has more to achieve.

It’s also inevitable he has influenced his times to the extent he has, and that so many of those interviewed by The Coaches’ Voice have offered so many insights into the privilege of being both a colleague of his, and an opponent.

Many football coaches say Leo Messi is the best player in the world

Here are some of the best quotes from top coaches paying tribute to the great Argentine forward.

“(Lionel) Messi is undoubtedly the best footballer in the world, capable of inspiring the team to the extent that if they are maybe not having a good day, they end up having the best day. Seeing him, their enthusiam grows, and this is closely tied with emotions“, Diego Someone, Atletico Madrid coach.

“We had the world’s best – Messi. We had an unbreakable spirit, a coach who was revered by all of the players and, above all, we were convinced we would win.

“On why Leo Messi is the Best Player in the World, the harder it gets, the more focused he is.”

“It’s been a privilege to share a dressing room as a player with Maradona and, with Messi, as a manager. There are some players you just don’t need to give instructions to.

At 21 , Messi was still very young, but you could see his enormous potential.”, – Sergio “Checho” Batista worked with Messi while manager of Argentina from 2010 to 2011.

Jose Mourihno thinks that Messi is the best player in the world

“The situation for us was very, very clear. He cannot play alone when he comes in between the lines. So this player (a defensive midfielder) must be totally in control of this area (in front of defence); always in communication with the left-back. There is a moment where (Messi) becomes the midfielder’s (priority).

“If in a certain moment Messi goes into those positions in between the lines, and if you decide to go (with him), you have to defend against (Dani) Alves. There was a combination of ideas, but basically everything was around not letting Messi play.”

– José Mourinho was Inter Milan’s manager when they defeated Barcelona in the semi finals of the 2010 Champions League

Gareth Southgate to Manchester United Doesnt’ Make Sense

Published

on

There is NO REASON for Gareth Southgate to be linked with the Manchester United job

Gareth Southgate is the only person in the Universe who can turn Manchester United into Middlesbrough within no time

The English media is trying all their best to push Southgate to united, but he is championship level manager at best

The England national team is waay better than this Manu squad, and he has had 0 success ( reaching semis ain’t success). So what exactly are people expecting if he becomes Manu boss

Absolutely no way! Why would Man U hire Southgate? That would be the worse decision in the history of the game.

ETH outwitted Klopp last weekend in one of the best and most dramatic FA cup clashes in years and I’m sorry but Southgate would not have won that game and ETH has had to deal with Ronaldo, Sancho, Greenwood and so on, he deserves more time

I have been saying this for weeks now. If United were under any other manager especially Southgate, they would be fighting for relegation right now. The problem at United is not Ten Hag but the players.

People keep saying that Ten Hag’s style of football at United is not attractive and no identity but there is so much that a manager can do if the players themselves are not good enough or not putting enough effort. Ten Hag’s Ajax were playing attractive football and he managed to get them to the SF of the CL.

Without him, look at Ajax now. And the media keep pushing their agenda to get Ten Hag sack and replace him with a much worse manager like Southgate. If Ten Hag is managing England right now, with the players they have, we won’t see such a passive football like we saw yesterday vs Brazil. Ask Liverpool fans, would they replace Klopp with Southgate? I rest my case.

Liverpool blame themselves for FA Cup loss to Man United

Liverpool only have themselves to blame for loss to Manchester United. Had to find a way to squeeze in the random Bruno slag off in between. Dude was dead on his feet at full time, and had to slot in to center back for the last 30 minutes.

SportsFila reflect on Manchester United’s 4-3 win over Liverpool in the FA Cup Quarterfinals and look ahead to the semifinals where Erik ten Hag’s side will take on Coventry.

How come everybody seems to have forgotten that 2 of LFC’s goals were pure luck?

More shots, same shots on goal, higher goal expectancy. What is this narrative that Liverpool should have put this game away, if anything we should’ve put this game away! They had a good 20, 25 minute stint where they kept the ball in the second half, but did nothing with it, we deservedly won this game.

For Liverpool fans: don’t say that we lost to Manchester United because Jota Trent Alisson and jones didn’t play. We have to stop doing that every time a team loses a big game it’s very stupid because had you won, you wouldn’t be saying that. Don’t forget that when y’all drew 0-0 to them at home Trent Alisson and Jones started. Keep in mind how well they’ve been playing despite having lots of injuries they almost beat Manchester City’s full strength squad last week.

Also, you lose to Manchester United, 2 fringe players for them decided the game for them, Liverpool didn’t play well and a loss is a loss you have to accept it otherwise you’re a sole loser and are unwilling to take it.

It’s interesting how nothing much is said about the mistakes made by Liverpool, but all criticism is piled on Bruno; how supposedly poor he was.

Ten Hag Says Man United Are on Track

Published

Ten Hag claims United is moving in the right direction 👀 WHAT DIRECTION IS THAT?!

Every time he speaks after a dismal performance after the match I always sit there saying to myself “What on Earth are you talking about”.

The media trying so hard to get ETH sacked…..when liverpool had bad injuries with VVD out, y’all didnt have the same energy

Most fans want ETH out because of his poor tactics and substitutions. I also felt he should be braver to drop non-performing players irrespective of names, and even play academy players if he has to.

Now I’m ETH in because I realise from Rooney’s and Ole’s recent interviews that the mentality of these players are incredibly low and it’s no longer just speculation that the players can’t cope on this stage.

I can understand ETH saying positive things and coming off as “crazy” but if you have players who are weak minded and aren’t willing to fight, you can’t be tough cos they’ll cave and where does that leave you for the rest of the season?! Jason Sancho case in point. I rather come across as insane to the media but hope that I’m lifting the team enough to get a string of performances to save my job and give the fans at least something to cheer about until I can have a summer clear out.

 

Keane is a freaking legend but that approach with these weak players will kill them and ETH would lose the dressing room.

This man keeps dropping off bombs on and off the field..A gift that keeps on giving..Most delulu man on this green earth
What a GIFT! Hand him a 15 years contract and 5 years add ons

The problem for Utd in recruiting an elite manager in the Summer is that Liverpool, Bayern and Barca will also be looking for new managers.

From the moment I heard “A new era begins. .” from ETH. I knew it was the joke of the century. He has the guts to say it while Klopp/Guardiola are competing against each other by 1 point in the Primer league he acted like he can compete with them ro
