Completely agree. I hate the similar argument that unless Messi wins the World Cup he won't be considered on the greats. What a load of crap!
Problem is football is changing.
The world cup used to be the be all and end all. Pele's 3 world cups ensured his place as the pinnacle.
But Messi's performances as a teenager as the central point for the best team in Europe performing in the league and CL makes him an undoubted great.
