Messi is the greatest player i've ever seen but everytime someone says "He can't be the GOAT because he never proved himself in a different league" I get a little bit shook and can't think of a good answer. What would be a good argument against this theory?

That soccermutts are turning Yea Forums into a subreddit. Take your worthless shit threads back to /r/soccer

there's no good counterargument
he's always been a roided system babby

Why wouldn't he be successful in a foreign league?

"just fucking watch him'

>proves himself in the best league
>"Ofcourse he is not the GOAT, he hasn't proven himself in the worse leagues"
Messi is not the GOAT until he proves himself in the greek superleague. If he can score as many goals as he does while pissed off ultras are throwing molotovs and launching fireworks straight towards him, then I may consider it.

Fuck Messoy for not carrying this stacked team of natural talents.

Why would he need to move to another country to prove himself to a bunch of faggots?
He plays in a country that shares language with his, in an environment that suits his character, getting a pay that probably only two or three other clubs could afford to pay, winning trophies regularly. He has everything he needs at Barcelona. I do not even think he gives a flying fuck if a basement dweller writes on the internet that Ronaldo is better than him. Or a journalist. Or Burkina Faso's manager.

TSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

He scored more goals against epl teams than penaldo and he didn't even play in the epl.

Pele never did, except 2 retirement years in MLS just like Messi will in his Argentine club

how pathetic do you have to be to play with Messi when you could use the time to train for the MLS with Atlanta instead

How can he ‘prove himself’ in a different league when he’s doing it in the best league in the world?

im sure he is really comfortable, that is exactly why he would need to get uncomfortable to prove himself.

>destroys big English teams in the CL
>"y-yeah but could he do it against Barnsley and Luton Town?"

Well could he?
