Messi overrated? No way
He's good, quick, top quality, and skillfull. It's true that he's a diving cheater and a bit tiny, but I'd sign it for my team with no doubts.

Messi is World Class and at such a young age he has years in front of him. I don't believe he's obverated at all.

Quality player.

Yes I seriously think so looking at their achievements. Adebayor has taken Togo to the world cup Single Handedly. He scored More than Eto'o, Drogba, and all other african players during that qualification campaign. He already has six goals in 3 matches he has played this season.

Got your Fish Steely....... Rolling Eyes


Come on mate, Messi is altogther something else, he's a lot better than Adebayor even with Adebayor's current form.

Anyway, as long as the cu*t gets two goals against West Ham Saturday I don't give a sh!t.

No!! Adebayor deserves to be voted Player of the month he is the best striker in the world at this moment. He had his low moments, Yes, but he is now the great Chevalier de la Bambara

Messi really is unbelievable, and overrating him - to me - is quite impossible.

The resemblence to Maradona is clearly there.


Who is Adebayor's resemblence? Kanu? Holy Ssshhhh....

Many people overrate the young exciting flashy players who play for massive Clubs.

But Messi is extremely talented either way. I know I don't overrate him.

Over-rated? dont think so pal. messi is special. for the talent he has at his age, he is amazing. and when you look at his achievement so far in his short career, it just proves that he isnt no way over-rated.

Don't mock Kanu, at his best he was a class act. Well, still is at times.
