Five reasons why Lionel Messi should consider Chelsea switch

5: To prove he doesn't need Xavi & Iniesta

Whilst it's true that the pair can probably provide better support than any other duo in the world, it's wrong to suggest that Messi would be nothing without them.

A move to Chelsea, where Messi would no doubt have to alter his game slightly from the tiki-taka system that has become synonymous with Barca, would provide definitive evidence that the Argentina international can be just as good when charged with building attacks without the pass-masters Iniesta and Xavi.


4: He could get- wait for it- EVEN BETTER

Amongst the muscle of the Premier League Messi could develop the physical side to his game, as well as perhaps learning a few things about how to win games when the possession isn't religiously 90% in your team's favour.

A change of surroundings, a completely different style of football, and Messi playing weekly against sides that will provide genuinely tough opposition...


3: Jose Mourinho

Mourinho is an expert at getting the very best out of his players, and he certainly wouldn't have any room for Messi's rumoured ego, which apparently wins the day more often than not at Barcelona.

The world's best coach with the world's best player?

If it's possible to make Messi any better than he already is, the Special One is undoubtedly the man to make it possible, and he's a figure you can bet on when it comes to helping the Barca star adapt to the rigours of the Premier League.


2: He's won everything at Barca

A move to Chelsea would offer him the chance to compete in different tournaments- particularly the Premier League title, which is considerably more coveted than the La Liga crown.

There isn't anything left to do in Spain that he hasn't already done and if he has the ambition to look back on his career when it's finished and boast that he won things in multiple countries, Chelsea is the next logical step.

1: To cement his legacy

For a multitude of reasons, Messi moving to the Premier League and setting it alight would put beyond question the theory that he is the most gifted footballer of all time.

Whether it's the fact that he would be competing in a harder division, his decision to challenge himself to break his own limits or the undeniable truth that he would be given the opportunity to completely boss the two hardest leagues in world football, Messi moving to Chelsea would leave the naysayers and doubters with nothing to argue.
