The Argentine is a level above every other superstar in Europe as far as playmaking skills are concerned. Nobody understands the game as much as he does - he sees everything happening on the pitch and also reads the tempo of the game faster than anyone else.
Messi has been a great force to reckon with throughout his career, tormenting opposition defences with his unbelievable dribbling skills, unmatchable intelligence and fantastic goalscoring knack. He has the ability to pick out the right passes, dropping deep in midfield to orchestrate team play before launching threatening attacks and penetrating into the opposition box to create chances for his teammates to score as well as finding the back of the net himself.
