    14. Md. Hizbul Islam says:

      At this stage Messi is playing so stupendous. I wonder what would he be and how will he play when he would cross age 27.
      May be he would fly and play. Other players who would play with him would just keep on staring at his play and wish if they could be like Messi!!!
      My favourite teams are Barcelona and Argentina. And i support them all because of Messi. If Messi once leaves Barca, i would stop supporting Barca. Instead, i would support the new team of MEssi.
      I play winning eleven 2009 in PS2 with my brothers. And they too khows who my favourite player and favourite teams are!!!
      And when i pass ball to messi in the game, they just gets tensed and alamed……………../:)
