Yes he is. Similar to the gap between Lebron and Durant (BIG gap) but much bigger. I really don't like to watch Barca games because they make all other games/players shitty by comparison.
However, Cristiano Ronaldo is in contention for the second best player ever. I already think Messi is the best footballer of all time. Anachronists get prickly about these statements but numbers don't lie and he is succeeding against the greatest era of soccer talent ever.
Watching Messi (and Barca) rip apart AC Milan was stunning. Champions League was looking to be more interesting without Barcelona in the mix but we're probably headed toward a final with some combination of Barca/Bayern/Real
