This one-man demolition display led a mad rush of claims by fans and professionals alike to class him once again as the ''best ever''.

Pep Guardiola labelled his number 10 as ''the best ever'' after his five-goal haul that took the Argentine to within seven goals of the total club record held by Cesar Rodriguez. Wayne Rooney spoke of his admiration for the Barcelona star as he singled Messi out as ''the best ever''. So the time has come for the SoccerBible audience to have their say.
