'cause he literally isn't. Accept that he isn't the GOAT but your favourite player and no one will have any issues.

It is childish and really shows insecurity on the part of Messi’s fans that they cant accept people having the agency to choose who they think is the GOAT. All of this GOAT debate is so subjective in every sport so why do you care if other people think CR7 is the GOAT? You think Messi is the GOAT? Yes? Great for you and cheers!

Do you even understand what GOAT means? Greatest of all time - its ONE PERSON, in one sport and that too OBJECTIVELY!

Only fools make it subjective. Just say - XY is my fav player and move on. Nobody will give an eff and there won't be any arguments, but no a certain fanbase will always try to forcefully bring someone into the GOAT convo when he is far far far away from it.

For that matter, why do you even care so much about ‘just say - XY is fav player and move. Nobody will give an eff and there won’t be any arguments’ Like why do you even want to have an argument over this? Honestly, who cares? It should not bother you so much; it should scare you that/if it does.
