Messi is good at everything up front, dribble pass ppl, score freekicks, create chances, score any type of goal, assist, control the game. Haaland is great at his job, but he's a different kind of player.

Comparing Norway to ARGENTINA now 🤣🤣 Comical Haaland at 24 years old has achieved astronomical feats. He will go down as one of the best football PLAYERS that ever lived.
▪︎CR7 not complete footballer like Messi ▪︎English Media hailed CR7 over Messi ▪︎Haaland labeled not complete footballer ▪︎Because he plays for non-darling Club City?😂
He has said on several occasions that he needs to improve in many areas. Having said that, I think people don't notice the passes that he does make when he has the opportunity to do so. As for Simon's comment that he is playing for the powerhouse that is Man City, Erling has done this for every team he has played for and in different leagues. And comparing Norway to Argentina was laughable. I'm surprised you went there.
would Argentina make it out of the group stages without Messi, would they beat Australia, the Dutch or Croatia without the player who created all their goalscoring chances? haaland wouldn't have led that team to anything.
Haaland is elite level at putting the ball in the back of the net in the same vein as Romario.. maybe not the flicks and tricks etc.. but his job is to score goals and he is a master at that.. therefore he IS a great footballer.. nonsense conversation

It’s a pointless argument. The best players win games. The only way to win games is to score goals, which he does every single game. Therefore he’s absolutely world class and a fantastic player. Doesn’t matter if you dribble past all 11 players to score or tap in from 6 yards. Both count the same.
Haalands job is to score goals amd to say Argentina had a poor side is just rubbish they had Marinez, Romero, De paul, Mac allister and Alverez juat to mention 5 that were playing with Messi. Haaland has Odegaard and Bobb for Norway no comparison.
They will always move the goal posts. When haaland starts getting assists it will be "Yeah but can he do it while cooking eggs". Your bias is showing. No other player gets this whole "Yeah, saka is good but he isnt a good shot stopper, so for me not a great player."
He s an awesome footballer and an awesome goal scorer people are so jealous of Haaland and of Manchester City who have dominated the premiership for the last decade
Does Simon Jordan even watch football? Argentina won the World Cup because they didn’t concede many goals, which was nothing to do with Messi. In fact in that first game where they conceded two goals they lost to Saudi Arabia, that’s how much they relied on their defence to play well.

Simon basically earns a wage slating City and everything to do with them on a daily basis. It's pathetic. How can someone with a goalscoring record like haaland's - and don't forget he has done it at every club and is now norway's top scorer - not be classed as a great footballer? How many players on the planet could score a goal like his first one last night? I can only imagine how much Simon would be raving about him if he played for one of the Red Cartel
When people say nonsense like this they’re basically saying Haaland looks awkward and isn’t sexy on the ball. Haaland’s #1 job is to score goals and considering he’s the best at it that makes him a great footballer, simple as that
How many years did it take for Messi to drag Argentina so they can win the WC? Something that Ronaldo can't. Who knows 10 years from now, Norwegia will win the WC, thanks to Haaland.
At Molde - early in his career - Haaland was still developing physically, adding a lot og muscle and strength. Once that development was nearing completion (towards the end of his time there) he really started scoring at a high frequency.
So Rush Owen Fowler RVN Van Persie Shearer Andy Cole all great goal scorers but not great players, using Simons argument if Haaland doesn’t drag Norway to the World Cup the all the above English players couldn’t get an international trophy so by his way of thinking not great players. And has Ronaldo dragged Portugal to a World Cup final win. The disrespect Haaland gets is pure jealousy from opponents who would take him in a heart beat.
Explain me WHY should a goal scorer of his calliber should be a "complete" footballer ??? Bruh what is this constant narrative, who said he needs to be a complete footballer?? Why does he need to be that when he's as good as he's in what he's supposed to be ...
EH plays as a 9 and has mastered that role. His intelligent movement/timing/speed of goalscoring runs, and awareness combined with finishing, power and pace is what separates him. No other 9 comes close in the attacking 1/3
I think this argument makes sense. No way he carries Argentina to a World Cup like Maradona or Liverpool to a Champions League like Gerrard - complete players Wow, Simon used my Maradona argument straight after I typed this - disagree with Messi's Argentina though, they had a good team, France had a lot of injuries and the refs were lenient with them
Simon saying basically just because he is in City is silly. He has done it in every team he has been. Just recently he surpassed the Norwegian national team's goal record. A 95 year old record!
Maradona and Messi World Cups couldn't be further apart. Take a look at the assault the defenders performed on Maradona in 86, then watch Messi get practically zero contact in 2022.
Maradona played against overweight, unathletic, footballers who drank, smoked and had other jobs. Messi played against athletes. An overweight drug addict like Maradona has no chance today
Haaland has improved this season a lot. But I don't really think he really cares about dropping deep and pinging crosses. Or going past players. A very unique player, indeed.
First off, he’s 23. Very few players if any are the complete article at that point. He’s showing he’s actually never seen Haaland play outside a city kit. He has shown many times the ability to drop deep, link up play, he’s simply not asked to for city. Probably because pep wants to keep him healthy. But his link up play is comparable to a creative midfielder in the Bundesliga at times. And even if we assume he isn’t…who cares…he’s the greatest goalscorer the prem has seen and it’s frankly not close. Even if he is flawed, Aguero played on a more talented City team and his greatest ever season, he didn’t have the same amount of goals as Haaland’s down year last year. He’s unambiguously the best goalscorer, no one is close. If his name was Jack Smith and he was raised in Hackney, they’d call him the best in the world and the second coming of R9.
@@denisako6493 I think any random player can drop down and provide assists, Haaland doesn't seem to even want to do it. Dribbling however... is 50% god-gifted.
This man is so delusional, Haaland at 24, 256 goals + 54 assists in 313 games, that’s 0.99 goal contributions per game Messi at 24, 197 goals + 84 assists in 326 games, that’s 0.86 goal contributions per game Ronaldo at 24, 132 goals + 66 assists in in 362 games, that’s 0.54 a goal contribution per game Haaland has the best minutes per goal ratio of any player to compete in the champions league scoring on an average of every 64 minutes, fastest player to 10,20, 30,40 Champion league goals most of these broken before joining city, Quickest and youngest player to reach 50 goals in Bundesliga history, broke the epl top scoring record for 1 season in his first season Haaland has played most of his career in weaker teams compared to Barca and Man United playing with the like of Durtmund until he joined city This dude can reach any heights
Haaland needs to get 50 goals per season for the next DECADE just to get near Messi's goal scoring even with the head start 😂😂 he's nowhere near that level and never scores in the big games like Messi or CR7 just stop
No doubt he is an ELITE goal scorer but average player. If you take away Messi and Ronaldos goals they still have something to offer the team . They also make you get up out of your seat and they excite fans. Bar goals does haalands excite you?
YES lets forget that Messi was a playmaking right winger until 23 and cr7 was a right midfielder while haaland was a striker the whole time. pathetic argument, messi has 400 assists and not some simple passes any chile could make but assists haaland has no ability to even attempt. u comparing a guy who while a great goalscorer was also the best dribbler in the world, the best passer and won the best playmaker award 5 times with haaland is just plain dumb.
He might not be as "good to look at" as some other players that we could mention but he is the most effective striker we've ever seen. So do you want a player who looks great doing stuff or a player who just delivers?
In today's world of billions of opinions you can't win needless arguments . Why not ask why half the English premier clubs have been taken over by Americans and why we have so few English people playing in the top flight . Leave Haaland alone before he zooms out to La Liga. Chelsea fan .
I seem to recall Mr Jordan once stating that he had "been disillusioned with football for a long time" it seems a great shame that he wants to keep inflicting his disillusionment on the rest of us...
Calling the title winning Argentina is like calling current Barca team average. It’s not all true. There are gifted footballers there. It’s just that those footballers are not in a big team like Barca or Real to project themselves as superstars or world class.
Erling Haaland is a goalscorer , pure and simple , and as football matches are still decided by goals , not possession , number of touches or heat maps , he is an integral part of Man City's team , to compare him with Lionel Messi is to show ignorance of football on an industrial scale
I love how Simon has to make the statement of “look at the team haaland plays in…” yeah like Messi didn’t play in THE GREATEST team ever to have stepped foot onto the pitch right 😂
Haaland is a sensational athlete, and has a great football brain. Haaland just might score even more for a team that doesn't make the opponents camp around their own box 90% of the game.
Ronaldo, Messi are great footballers they can do stuff he cant, he's a outstanding finisher though and I'd take him at Liverpool tomorrow, if I had the choice of the 3 of them though he would be my third choice.
Totally agree, I appreciate his goal scoring achievements but I don’t enjoy watching him play. He’s not a good footballer but a great goal scoring athlete
Stop the jealousy what a better footballer? Is football a positional game so isn’t his job to score goals. Football is a positional game so there no thing as a total football does Messe or Ronaldo play defense or goalkeeper so there nothing as A total footballer
dont compare him to messi..,to ronaldo yes..inzaghi,drogba..yes..messi?nono..R9?nono...players like R9 or Messi can do it by themselves,dribble past 5 defenders,also give an assist at the same time,and playmaking,just look at the goals their scored,when Haaland receives his best striker awards,they play the highlite of his goals,i've got secondhand embarrassment from watching it,like 97% a tap in from 5 feet away
He's not going to drag an average team to win a league or CL because he's not influential in the game. I watched Benzema drag Madrid to a CL as a striker. Halaand ain't ever doing that. His performance against the biggest teams and best defenders is proof he's limited.
Pep is without doubt a great manager. probably one of the best ever..he said of Messi , "he can play number 1 number 2 number 3 number 7 number 10 " Nobody compares to Messi. he controls the games, makes assists, scores, free kicks, he does evrything, Haaland only scores...wupee
Was Messi a great shot stopper? Can't be a complete footballer then... Lol, this debate is so dumb. A goal scorer is a footballer.

He is good but everyone likes different types of footballers
Us city fans don’t care as long as he’s scoring
34 cl goals in 32 games
Howling Howland!
He's just a goal scorer and not a complete player
I mean, how many players can you call "complete "😂?
C.mon city halland goals were not all scored at city a lot were at dortmund a the goalkeeper is not a top striker 😢
Stop the jealousy what a better footballer? Is football a positional game so isn’t his job to score goals. Football is a positional game so there no thing as a total football does Messe or Ronaldo play defense or goalkeeper so there nothing as A total footballer
Only in England would someone ask who’d you prefer haaland or Kane please racehorse v turtle
Hes nowhere near a complete player. Watch him warming up people 😂😂😂😂. One trick pony but WHAT a trick
Zlatan did this a few times
Im an Arsenal fan and i dont think he’s a very good footballer and just a good goalscorer. The guy can barely link up play
Football is not basketball
A sensational goalscrorer is a sensational player, stop talking nonsense
I see wat he means for once he needs service he needs feeding
Dont compare Messi with Haaland it's laughable anyone who know football knows this is not a debate worth having
Comparing a #9 to a 10 is silly
Comparing messi to anyone is silly
Amazing goal scorer, ordinary footballer in all other aspects.
THE GAME IS ABOUT WINNING, I.E. SCORING GOALS... AND HAALAND IS BETTER THAN MESSI AND RONALDO AT ACTUALLY SCORING GOALS...
dont compare him to messi..,to ronaldo yes..inzaghi,drogba..yes..messi?nono..R9?nono...players like R9 or Messi can do it by themselves,dribble past 5 defenders,also give an assist at the same time,and playmaking,just look at the goals their scored,when Haaland receives his best striker awards,they play the highlite of his goals,i've got secondhand embarrassment from watching it,like 97% a tap in from 5 feet away
CAN MESSI AND RONALDO DO WHAT HAALAND CAN DO.... NO!
@mycroidalmycroidal bro you are beyond help
@@MehrunesDagonJM stop eating copium little one!!
@mycroidalmycroidal even Haalands own manger knows Haaland aint better than they both. Bet your one of they African football fans
💯
Such critical opinions are the obstacle of questionable English National team. Why none can score such a goal(s)?
Messi is the 🐐
He's not going to drag an average team to win a league or CL because he's not influential in the game.
I watched Benzema drag Madrid to a CL as a striker. Halaand ain't ever doing that.
His performance against the biggest teams and best defenders is proof he's limited.
Pep is without doubt a great manager. probably one of the best ever..he said of Messi , "he can play number 1 number 2 number 3 number 7 number 10 " Nobody compares to Messi. he controls the games, makes assists, scores, free kicks, he does evrything, Haaland only scores...wupee
