So Messi just won his 8th Ballon d’Or, the highest in the history of football by miles. But when asked if he thinks he is the best player in the history of football, his response was- “I don’t know if I’m the best player in history or not, but to be among the best is a great honor”.
How can a man be so humble, given all the accolades he has achieved, and the un-humanly performances he has given over the years? There are players who are not half his worth, who don’t hesitate for a second before boasting themselves as the self-proclaimed GOAT.
I guess even personality-wise, Messi is out of this world, just like he is on the pitch.
He’s a disrespectful piece of shit but media never shows his bullshit.
He is very far from being humble.
Grabbing players by the neck, slapping, provoking coaches and bench players, cursing at refs, etc.
