Real Valladolid CF v FC Barcelona - La Liga

Left foot, right foot, two-footed players, count them all and Messi would still top this list. However, all of that is due to his magical left foot. Even for his astronomical club success, Messi’s lack of trophies with Argentina has been a sad part of his life for years now, but even the most staunch critics will agree that he still has the best left foot in the business. He is also the best dribbler in the world right now and even though he was fabulous last season, he was unfairly overlooked for the FIFA’s Best awards.

But Messi has displayed no frustration at the snub and has shown no signs of stopping either. If morning shows the day, this season could unfold further historic success onto the feet of the magician. Interestingly, Messi’s left foot contains tattoos of his first child’s handprint, his son Thiago’s name, and the legendary No. 10 along with a sword and a football and whether these add further superpower to his already mighty foot is unknown as of yet. But truth be told, Messi already had a left foot of legends since his breakthrough into the footballing world.

The magical Argentinian can lit up even the saddest hearts when he goes in an evading run through the opposition defenses. His incredible balance, his unearthly dribbling and his lightning speed make him the most feared footballer in the world. And with the ball in his left foot, Messi is the definition of endless possibilities. With the ball in his left foot, Messi makes the whole world stand up and take notice, because right at that moment, everything is possible.
