Vote on the new poll asking Would Messi be as good/successful in the PL as he is at Barca?

1.) 19 Feb 2014
No he wouldn't

Barca and Bayern just won in England stop thinking the best teams are in the prem. He's breaking records of the likes of di stefano and only 26. He'd murder some of the donkeys in the prem. ask any top prem player, they know how good he his. Infact ask Deulofeu, then a think u'd listen

Would he be as effective and successful in the Premier League as the other foreign top performers like Sergio Aguero or (I hate to say this) Luis Suarez? I believe that he would be.
Would he be as prolific as he is in Spain? I don't think he would be.
Look at Ronaldo's goal scoring records at Manchester United and Real Madrid. I imagine that Messi would have similar goals-to-games ratios in the two leagues.
They're both fantastic footballers and would grace any league in the world.

Depends on which team he joins in premier league. if he were to join Manchester City, who prefers to play quick short passing game, he would surely be as prolific, if not better. His ball control, acceleration is unrivalled in world football, he would murder the defenders here, than in Spain. Defenders are technically poor, big beasts here, who always seems to struggle against pace and they would find it so hard to contain a player of Messi's agility. Messi is too good not to excel in any league and there is a reason why he won the Best player of the year 4 times. But for now, he owes his entire career to Barcelona, he is loving it there, he is the best player in the world and he is scoring for fun, and saying something like "he would not have excelled if he were in premier league" is just pointless and I would guess, would come out of jealousy or may be blind love for Ronaldo, as there is no proof for that argument. But if silvas and matas can excel better in premier league than in spain, then there is every reason to believe that Messi will be better in england than in Spain. But this will remain as a pointless poll, (no offence to the one who created the poll) and a matter of debate untill he actually comes to Premier league, which we all know is very unlikely.

In the words of Churchill oh yes, Is he the best player in the world? Again oh yes.
