of course messi is the best footballer in the world <not proven
no messi is way to good
MESSI
I do not think so as Torres is spanish and Messi is from Argentina.
look people say Messi but really C Ronaldo is the best one on earth till now Torres is good but not like Messi and C Ronaldo.
Ronaldo got one lucky goal, Messi, Torres and Rooney failed to score a single goal.
Gerrard, Messi, Ronaldo, Rooney, Torres?
On the basis of goals scored per game (a reasonable measure for a striker), Messi is the better player; As a club striker, Messi has scored 96 goals in 184 games, a strike rate of 0.52 (better than a goal in every other game). Torres has scored 153 goals in 346 games for an average of 0.44. You could argue that whilst Messi has been the spearhead of one of the most expensive and successful Barcelona teams ever assembled, his job of tucking away the goals has probably been easier than that of Torres who played for perennial also-rans Atlético Madrid and Liverpool. Messi has, however, also won every major individual honour, including UEFA Player of the Year, the Ballon d'Or, FIFA Golden Ball and FIFA World Player whilst Torres has not. On balance: probably Messi by a short nose.
They are Torres, , Rooney, Messi, .
This kind of questions is very controversial.However, Messi is considered to be better than Torres, but lets focus on the facts. Lets observe the results of the most prestigious individual prizes in football - FIFA World Best Player of the Year and Ballon d'Or.FIFA World Best Player of the Year 2007:Messi won the 2nd place with 504 points,Torres won the 26th place with 4 points.FIFA World Best Player of the Year 2008:Messi won the 2nd place with 678 points,Torres won the 3rd place with 203 points.Ballon d'Or 2007:Messi won the 3rd place with 255 points,Torres didn't get even a single point so wasn't in the top 35.Ballon d'Or 2008:Messi won the 2nd place with 281 points,Torres won the 3rd place with 179 points.Now let's observe title winning (sorting the titles by importance):Major titles:Euro/Copa America:Messi: none.Torres: 1Champions league:Messi: 2Torres: none.Local League:Messi: 3Torres: none.Now you have all the relevant facts, decide for yourself.
of all time= pele 2002= ronaldo (brazilian) 2005= ronaldinho 2007= kaka 2008= cristiano ronaldo 2009= lionel messi 2010= lionel messi 2011= lionel messi 2012= lionel messi 2013= cristiano ronaldo 2014= cristiano ronaldo 2015= cristiano ronaldo
