Pele?

Think about how much has changed in player training and development — maybe just in athleticism alone — between Pele and Messi’s eras and then make your decision.

You have to consider things relative to eras in exercises like this.

For example, Roger Bannister running 3:59 in 1954 in a full mile in 1954 is more impressive than someone running 3:57 today (the world record is 3:43 by Hicham El Guerrouj).

That being said, I believe Messi is the greatest ever even though I am a Ronaldo fanboy.
