Football has seen some extraordinary talents which ranges from the great Pele to Maradona and stretches over a vast extent.Those legends are still commemorated and future legends will be discovered.However,talking about today,we do not have a David Beckham in his prime or a Roberton Carlos.We cannot find a Oliver Kahn or Zico. Yet,there are some really unbelievable talents in the football fraternity who are as good as our legends and may become the best of all time.Here, is a comprehensive details about our 5 best wizards today.
1.Lionel Messi
Playing in the shades of Barcelona and serving the duties of Argentina,this 25 years old lad is the world's best player. Messi is the only footballer who has won 4 Ballon Dor Titles. He captured the title in 2009 and has never looked back. Currently,people and media compare him to Pele and Maradona and hail him the greatest of all time .Messi has 22 hattricks in his carrer,297 barcelona goals and has a list of records which is likely to be broken by the same man only. Lionel Messi,scored 91 goals last season,breaking the 40 years old record of the German great-Gerd Muller.
2.Cristiano Ronaldo
The 28 years old Portuguese celebrated his birthday last night in his hometown. Ronaldo has always been under the scanner of Messi but has established a world name for himself. He won the Ballon Dor in 2007 with Manchester United. His most memorial moment for Los Blancos came last year when he led them to a spanish La Liga title. Cristiano is getting better and better every season,but it is his misfortune to play in Messi's era which hasn't earned him a lot more success.
3.Andres Iniesta
The best player in Spain,misses out in the first two place. But,Andres won the UEFA BEST PLAYER IN EUROPE 2012,ahead of Messi and Ronaldo. Iniesta is known for his blistering pace,quality ball control and great assists. He is one of the best playmakers in the world today and serves Barcelona in a similar fashion as he does for his national side.His moment of Honor came during 2010 where he scored against Netherlands in the World Cup final. Iniesta also led Spain to Euro Cup championships in 2008 and 2012.
4.Xavi Hernandez
Also,playing for Barcelona,is our number 4. Xavi,is the most well organised midfielder in the world today who is known to hold the ball and dominate the possession.Xavi has also tasted the same amount of success like Iniesta,in Spanish colours.However, he has never won any major individual awards. Xavi,is the heart and soul of Barcelona and will look to seize the Champions League and Spanish La Liga this season.His strength lies in his passing and vision skills.
5.Neymar
The 21 years old Brazilian who hasn't featured in Europe so far,is our number 5. Neymar has the skills which nobody in today's football can even think about. He is widely hailed as the best playmaker in the world. He has scored over 133 goals in 3 seasons for Santos and also carries his form for national side- Brazil. Neymar has won the FIFA PUSKAS AWARD in 2011 for the best goal in the year. The young Brazilian is being targeted by clubs like Manchester City, Real Madrid, Barcelona and PSG. However, Neymar insists to continue playing in Brazilian League.
So,these were the best 5 players that grace the beautiful game today. The question to ask is how far can these masters go and establish their names in the History Books.
