    Thank God. Finally, this little man is amazing to watch. Every game I know what he is capable of, but he still leaves me speachless. I guess one can say that his game is truly breath taking. Being at the top of the world individually and as a team must be a really confident feeling. I feel really privileged to watch him, and I'm not surprised to see these awards being handed down to him. I really hope Messi and Argentina can put it together for the upcoming World Cup 2010. I think it would be a shame that the worlds best player and an amazing soccer country dont do very well. But, I thnk they will put it together and shock a lot of people.

    easy there fella. slurpin a little bit too hard. Messi is a great player, possibly the best out there and he deserves all the awards. His team won everything and he scored the most goals. I am pretty sure Argentina will start playing well when the World Cup starts and Messi will show the world why he is the best player.
