damn Messi haters really feeling themselves in the comments section.

Messi brought the world cup to Argentina, pretty sure most argenintians would queue up for that.

Messi.

Here is a surprising fact for you: the BdO is not in fact based on goals scored, it is based on actual performance in all competitions and when in a world cup year, it will heavily skew towards that competition for obvious reasons. Messi won the world cup and ligue 1 while Haaland won the treble, achievements wise its comparable and even skews towards Messi if you really think about it, but if you think a treble is more impressive that is fine. However what is undeniable is that Messi’s impact on the pitch was much bigger than Haaland’s. Messi world cup campaign >>>>> Haalands CL campaign and you’d be hard pressed to argue against that.
