      South African politicians lined up to take pics with Messi when came to South Africa, dude has 2 of the top 3 instagram post of all time and has the second instagram followers without an extremely active poster. Did you see what happened when he moved to the MLS.

        He’s done very little to influence the actual game of football though, because the way he plays is not replicable.

        Nobody has changed how they play the game because of Messi.

        yeah and the next superstar in the social media era will have similar posts.
        Besides we are talking about influence in football, not social media influence

          If you are talking about influence only in football then there’s no way he is not even top 10 in influence.
