#1 Lionel Messi
Lionel Messi is probably the best player in the world right now. He has got magical feet, tremendous pace and the ability to shoot precisely from long distance. Due to his short stature and low centre of gravity, Messi can turn faster than any other player and leave defenders in his wake.
He is also one of the best free-kick takers in the world. However, the one trophy which has eluded Lionel Messi so far is the World Cup. Messi has the ability to rip apart the opposing defences single-handedly. Being the X-factor for Argentina, the Barcelona attacker will be expected to score goals as well as create chances for his teammates.
The hope of an entire nation rests on his shoulders and the onus is on Messi to deliver them the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
