Lionel Messi is not generally considered a great athlete, with exceptional strength or stamina or anything like that which would be affected by PEDs. His ability is pure skill and intelligence. Cruijff was similar.
- dylanjermiah 11y agoI'd classify an athlete with great skill and intelligence to be a great athlete.
- josefresco 11y agoIn Messi's case this is exactly why it's the supreme advantage. He already possess world class skill and intelligence, add HGH to the mix to boost his athleticism and you have a balanced, top tier athlete.
- CrackpotGonzo 11y agoCompletely disagree. Explosive acceleration, strength on the ball and ability to endure an entire season without being subbed off are all indicative of being a "great athlete".
