He's not better mate but he certainly influences the game more, Messi is the best player in the world at the moment but Iniesta plays in a position that gives him the responsibility of pulling the strings. Iniesta feeds Messi and crew the ball without that type of player your knackered. Like at Liverpool they have Gerrard and Torres but without Alonso they will end up infective. Carrick for utd he couldn't get in the game against Barcelona and that left our front line wasting it's time. When Alonso signs for madrid liverpool wont have any penetration and will have a hard time next season.:Hit:
Snoooze this is about Messi vs Ronaldo, what have Liverpool got to do with that?
Being one of the greatest players doesn't mean you have the best knowledge in terms of what you see on the field! Maradonna is biased about Messi no doubt! I think Messi is a great player not the best in the World!
You ask the Barca team who is their most influential player in their team and your answer will be Andreas Iniesta but then again what do they know they only play with him!
Messi is a great dribbler but best player in the World i am not sure i personally don't think he is!
Andy Gray is a respected pundit!
Maradonna LMAO
Pele said Robinho would set the World alight but not seen that when Madrid signed him he was meant to be the best since Pele Maradonna!
Great players don't always be great judges of talent!
I might be football mad but i do have knowledge of the game so can back myself up!
Honestly you think that Andy Gray is respected? I find that astonishing and would find it impossible to prove in a room full of grown men.
Unfortunately the Barca team are not coming over for afternoon tea today otherwise I would have asked who they think is better, Messi or Iniesta.
I can't comment on Pele as I haven't read the article but Maradona is not in the business of promoting Messi and his comments should be seen as praise from one former best player in the world to the current.
It is widely acknowledged that Messi is the best in the world, only ManU fans would begrudge him that status for their own selfish reasons which are beyond me.
oh Messi you are the best oh best in the world
