Answer 2

A: Why is your favorite footballer? B: Lionel Messi. He is the greatest player in the world.

In this conversation, the adjective "great" is used to describe Lionel Messi. To express the highest degree of greatness, we need to use the superlative form of the adjective. The superlative form of "great" is "greatest". Therefore, the correct sentence is "He is the greatest player in the world" [[1]].
