The GOAT (Greatest of All Time) debate never seems to end, with football fans firmly split between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
While the majority of supporters remain loyal to their chosen star, few opinions carry as much weight as that of someone like Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta, who has a deep understanding of football from both a player’s and coach’s perspective.
Having played the game at a high level and honed his coaching skills under Pep Guardiola—widely regarded as one of the greatest football managers of all time—Arteta’s view on the GOAT debate is both insightful and respected.
In a recent interview with Sky Sports Premier League, the Spaniard was asked who he considers the greatest footballer of all time, and his response was clear:
"It's always been Messi. I cannot deny it. For me, and for my three kids, it’s exactly the same."
He went on to say:
"We've been incredibly lucky to witness Messi’s greatness for so many years. In my opinion, he is the best player of all time."
Arteta left no room for doubt as he wrapped up his thoughts:
"For me, it has to be Messi as the greatest of all time."
Mikel Arteta’s endorsement of Lionel Messi as the GOAT comes from a place of experience and deep knowledge of the game, making his opinion one that resonates with fans and pundits alike.
