Undisputed, the little guy from Argentina is only 25 years old and he is on pace to score more goals than anyone ever! He's not just a striker, but he controls the play and passes the ball with amazing touch and teammwork. Lionel plays for the best Football Club in the World... Barcelona and the team is stacking championships because of Lionel's play. The only question is... will Lionel ever lead his country to a World Cup victory? If he does, he could go down as the best player of all-time.
