Lionel Messi's Ridiculous Shirt Collection Is Missing One Player In Particular

It's far too easy to run out of superlatives for Lionel Messi.

You often find yourself writing at least one article a week about the superstar, but he might have revealed the most impressive thing about him so far - his incredible shirt collection.

Alongside a plethora of his own shirts, a smorgasbord of jerseys from across the footballing world are spread across his room and it's a sight to behold

Barcelona teammate Gerard Pique has a good spot, as does PSG winger Angel Di Maria and Roma legend Francesco Totti, but plenty of people picked up on the absence of Cristiano Ronaldo.

Of course West Ham's Manuel Lanzini also features in a prominent position...wait, what?

Apparently the pair met in 2016 and swapped shirts, but lord knows what it's doing in such a lofty position, they've not even played together at national level but clearly Lionel thought the Hammers player was a lovely bloke.

Pique once showed off his collection and it's pretty good, but it's nothing on Messi's:

Although this guy's collection of every shirt Ronaldinho has ever worn is quite some attempt.

Which also reminds us of how Ronaldinho brought up his 10 millionth Instagram follower:

But maybe nothing rivals the incredible names in Troy Deeney's shirt collection:
