Lionel Messi style of play
Lionel Messi has developed into one of the greatest players football has ever known. His split-pace flicks and turns, ability to read the game and navigate though tight spaces with sensational dribbles has made him an envy of other playmakers.
The little boy from Rosario has evolved into a complete player, a perfect definition of a playmaker thanks to Guardiola's possession-based football at Barcelona from 2008.
Combining his experience with Barcelona and Argentina national team coupled with his small stature which makes him less susceptible to gravity, Messi can turn at both directions with speed, his vision, allowing him position, navigate, and create chances for his teammates are impeccable.
Apart from his playmaking roles, Lionel Messi also had an enduring knack for goals. He did not only create chances for goals but also a prolific goal-scorer himself.
The trails of a hero cannot be denied. Lionel Messi is one and has shown it in style with an epic career in football so far.
