A few soccer players come to mind
Paul Gascoine
Maradona
Ronaldo (fat)
Michael Owen
George Best
Did you really mean to include Maradona here? I don't think I've ever seen anyone dominate a tournament (any sport) like Maradona did in the 86 World Cup. That was easily some of the best soccer (yeah, I know hand-of-god, blah, blah) any player has played.
With due apologies to Pele, Maradona was soccer's GOAT. Unlike Maradona, Pele had a dazzling supporting cast throughout his playing career.
Btw, Messi has MILES to go before he can crack even the top 10, let alone top 5. He can start with helping Argentina win the 2014 WC in Brazil.
