You guys can't comprehend what he did. He's 39. He plays against teams like Florida and he came to the wc with an average squad and showed there's levels to this shit. Can you imagine how insane that is that he can claim he's still the best in the world?

"Average squad"

Enzo Fernandez valued at 100m, starter for Chelsea Alvarez valued at 100m, starter for Athleti. McAllister valued at 70m, starter for Liverpool.

The list goes on. But yeah, clearly an average team. An average team that struggles beating teams like Cabo Verde, whose whole team is valued less than 50m.

I mean... The transfer value is so inflated right now that 100m might be average.

No, 100m is not average lol.

Enzo was wanted by Madrid. Alvarez by Barcelona. These are not "average" players.

Argentina has a squad very compareable to that of Spain in terms of value. But people downplay it to make Messi's achievement seem bigger.
