How would Lionel Messi cope in the EPL

[shinobi108]

He's really small and fragile, but has good ball control and has solid finishing. I wonder how he would do with players the ilk of Robbie Savage and the typical rough rugby style defending in the EPL. He certainly doesnt come close to Ronaldo's muscular build.

He'd be in par with Ben Arfa and Aaron Lennon.

He would be just as good in the Premier League as he has been in La Liga. Seriously the guy is amazing. The idea that the "Robbie Savage ilk" could do anything to stop him is laughable.

David Silva is roughly the same size as Lionel Messi and has been one of the best players for City for years. Messi is on another level than David Silva.

All the awesome English players would make him look second rate.

Lol why is this R-rated

Premiership isn't that rough is it?

I think refs are being stricter these days so he would so fine and be top scorer. He would probably be protected by refs too.

How would the best player ever do? I think he'd do just fine...Depends what team you put him on, Man City or Crystal Palace though.

Imagine Messi at Palace. Just think how much a legendary British coach like Pulis could improve him.

He'd be launching throw ins into the penalty area like a boss.
