Tokgözler (Guler's youth coach): "Messi is the best I have ever seen, but if we talk about potential purely, Arda has more potential than Messi. Although he still has a long way to go." (as.com)

Of course there's a chance. But a player as complete as him in this day and age? Football has changed so much in the last 20 years. Tactically and physically all teams have improved a lot, to a point where individual talent that can make a difference is becoming extremely scarce.

That player will also need to have a lot of luck. Being born in a country with chances of winning international trophies. Growing up in one of the best teams in the world, being able to debut at 17 and become world class at 20. Having the winning mentality to care for the game, his well being and living obsessed with football. To not have more than a couple of important injuries in his career and to have the consistency to be the best (or at least top 3) every single year for 20 seasons.

Let's be honest, it's almost impossible.
