While he’s alive, there’s only Messi, there’s no discussion, sports scientist Simon Brundish told CNN.“If you’re saying anyone else, other than Messi, even if he has had a broken leg for a year, or he is dead, or you are lying. It can’t be true.“Messi has currently a goal or assist every 48 minutes. A game typically lasts 95 minutes so that’s almost two every single game. Last season it was 58 minutes.“Normally you’re doing well if you get a goal every two games.”England legend Gary Lineker is a known admirer of Messi. He regularly tweets in awe, not always able to fathom what he has just seen from the great man.His Twitter header even includes the Argentine smiling along with him and his four sons.
Messi has just scored his 400th goal for @FCBarcelona in @LaLigaEN. It would be an astonishing statistic if he were just a goal scorer, but hes so much more than that. Were blessed to live in his time. — Gary Lineker (@GaryLineker) January 13, 2019Elsewhere on social media, Barcelona uploaded a picture montage of Messi complete with the caption: His goat-ness.To the perplexed, that acronym means greatest of all time. That’s it, simple and straight to the point.Superlatives no longer do Messi justice. If there are any left, you can guarantee they have already been used on him.
