Messi, Neymar, Ronaldo, do any of these names sound familiar? Most people have probably heard at least one of these names. Football fans, or soccer as what it is called in the U.S see or hear these names every week. Messi and Ronaldo have been regarded as the best players of their generation and sometimes the best of all time. Many people believe that Neymar will be the one to dethrone them. This book talks about each player's childhood, influence, family, and accomplishments they have achieved so far. I would recommend this book because it's about three people who are known worldwide.
This book stood out to me because it's about soccer and it's about three players who I know a lot of. "Who is the greatest of them all? The best in the world? We are always asking that question. It is part of the culture of football, the collective history of lovers of the beautiful game''(1). This is the conversion that has been discussed between soccer fanatics for years. When Caioli writes "While there may not be a definitive answer to be found in these pages, there is plenty of room for opinions and analysis of the three players' journeys to stardom, their style and abilities, their achievements both on and off the pitch, their similarities and differences"(2) he's basically saying that it's impossible to determine who's the best of the three of them because they're all still playing, all in their prime, and everyone knows that they're going to keep achieving things that no other player has. This book would stand out to soccer fans because these are one of, if not the most recognizable names and faces in the soccer world.
