Will Messi be the best player in the world if he wasn't a barca player?
If this is the topic then why is everyone only talking about the Club ... The best players of the game are judged, not only with Club performance but their International performance as well ... The best example of this is the Spanish Team ... Xavi, Iniesta, Villa, Torres, Fabregas all are talented and have given brilliant performances for their respective Clubs consistently but they became to be considered World-Class after winning the Euro 08 ... To be considered as one of the best it has to be CLUB + COUNTRY, theres no two ways about it !
