Messi has become a legend, because he broke the goal scoring record at Barcelona. It is normal for people to call him legendary, because he has done legendary stuff. He will increase the number of scored goals in the jersey of Barcelona and he will be a player who will remain in the history. Maybe there were other fantastic players at Barcelona in the past, but because of the lack of technology there are not so many visual proofs of their playing. Messi will be immortal, because there are many video proofs of his fantastic playing ability. But he had the luck of having a fantastic team to be a part of, having the two wonderful midfielders Xavi and Iniesta who are helping him a lot and a coach who understands him perfectly. But he is a unique player and I think he deserves all the praises in the world. No matter how many trophies he has won so far, he stayed humble and that is a great quality, necessary to be a legendary player.

of course..he can be same position with pep guardiola, and johan cruyff i think..
he become number one top scorer for barcelona..
i think he make fantastics record..
and the player which can break his record, of course the fantastics too
sometimes we forgot that messi is still 24 years old..
and of course as long as he can keep his good performance, he can make a wonderful record not only for barcelona, and spain league but maybe for football and for world..

It is a delight to watch Messi at his best, but we mustn't diminish the value of Iniesta and Xavi. Without those two and the other team mates and without the knowledge of Guardiola, he wouldn't have achieved so many things in his young career. He is a legend already, but so are Xavi, Iniesta, Puyol, Valdes and other players who have had an active part in winning the trophies.

There is no doubt Messi will go down as one of Barcelona greatest player. He is only 24 years old and is already their record goalscorer. If he is to stay at Barcelona for his entire career, and if he could stay away from severe injury or loss of form, he will create a record that will not be broken for a long long time. As for him being the greatest ever player, he has to win the World Cup with Argentina. Pele did it. So did Maradona. And to be on par with them, Messi has to win it.

Yes, he's a legend now because til date, no players is able or has the capability to surpass him. With his skills, even ronaldo is not up to his standard, nowhere near as well. Messi is certainly better than Pele and Maradona. Since both of them are legends now, and messi is way better, that makes him an auto legend. Considering messi's young age, he certainly can go much further. So to put him as a legend is not enough to describe his abilities yet.

Messi sure is one talented individual. He's always a threat for opposing teams. He moves just like a cockroach, lol. I don't know what it is about him but he's so agile...

Hi adhyz: I know what you mean. One of these fans is actually my sister that already considers him a living legend and she is more informed than me about what he does and his goals in soccer. I mean, let's just wait and time will say.

You are right that it will be wrong to tell that he is a legend.He is just 24 years old and has many years to go and he is going to double the tally which he has now and when he retires from the game at that time we say he is legend then it would be great.
But he is really going to be a legend as in such short age he had achieved very much as few days ago he became the highest goal scorer for barcelona.It is now upto him that he should take his Team Argentina to a World Cup win.
