Often considered the best player in the world and widely regarded as one of the greatest players of all time, Messi has won a record six Ballon d’Or awards and a record six European Golden Shoes. The Barcelona star’s perfect game techniques and calm composure have made him an opposition’s worst nightmare. No one has the dribbling, passing and shooting skills to go with the vision, speed of thought and capacity to influence a game which the Argentine possesses in abundance.
The Barcelona star has had years of glory at the top level and has been through all different types of moments that a footballer can experience. Messi has enough composure to retain his calmness during the big games, and not get lured into any sort of altercation with the opposition. Having won all possible cups, Messi maintains the hunger of a 20-year old with his impeccable attitude of never skipping training and trying to surpass himself every single season.
