Ronaldo losses out to Messi in World best player award simply because too many people in the football world don't like Ronaldo as a person, probably he's arrogant, disrespectful etc.

Pep not shaking Ronaldo only makes Pep acting like a fool. As far as football itself is concerned Ronaldo is a quadruple-tested, trusted, guaranteed and better player than Messi, Ronaldo has played for Sporting Lisbon, Man U, Madrid, Portuguese national team and has braked records in all, but Messi is the only world best player that has gone to World Cup without scoring a half goal, has never played well in Argentina national team, has never played in another club, has never played good football without either or both Xavi and Iniesta on the pitch. Hey, don't get me wrong, Messi is a wonderful player but Ronaldo is an exceptional player

Ronaldo is one little arrogant piece of shiit.imagine him tapping Pep as if he looks like his mate.no wonder he's losing out while a humble messi keeps soaring.


How else could he have done it? Go prostrate right in front of him Abegi!!! I don't blame Pep,I blame Ronaldo spitting into the enemy's camp

Guy pls give it a rest.

This silly points you raised here were all taken into consideration by the over 600 accredited ballon d‘or voters.

You surely dont know football more than Roy Hodgson, Steven Gerrard, Klinsmann, Carlos Bocanegra, Thiago Silva, Sarbella and so many other who picked Messi ahead of Ronaldo do you?

A player is not known so much by the number of leagues he has played in but more with his consistent consistency, otherwise Nicholas Anelka, Ibrahimovic would rank as the best. Messi has not played in another league yes but what does it take away from him? He has played well in the WC, has Ronaldo? How many trophies has Ronaldo for Portugal both at junior and senior international level?

Why is Ronaldo so obsessed with the ballon d‘or that he had to consistently give up his chance to vote as national team captain to Bruno Alves? You would read meaning into it wouldnt you if Messi was involved.
Well so much for world best.

Well, many of us are not stuck with nairaland as you, I don't need to watch it cos I have seen different pictures of it on dailymail.co.uk before it even got to nairaland there was a particular picture that showed how ronaldo's hand was left hanging.
You saw pics of Ronaldo's hand hanging? Seriously you saw his hand offering a shake?

Come off it man! The angle of the camera made that impossible as there was an obstructing head. The best you could have seen was Ronaldo's arm not his hand. The rest is left to your imagination. You filled the void with what the media wants you to see.

Watch the video and see where he hit Guardiola with his elbow before Guardiola turned, how Guardiola reacted, and you would know it wasnt a handshake.
Or maybe you wouldnt. Media robots swallow everything they read online.

If you believe examining evidence means I am stuck with Nairaland, yours is just a sad case of baffling with bullshit when you realise you are incapable of dazzling with brilliance.

You really know how to hawk ignorance don't you? Now let me educate you.

(1) Messi has a world cup goal.

(2) Argentina is currently topping the South American worldcup qualifiers table. Messi scored 12goals for Argentina in 2012, including hattricks against Brazil and Switzerland, one in their win against Germany, and 5goals in the world cup qualifiers.
You call that 'not playing well'?

(3) Messi has scored hatricks in matches where neither Xavi nor Iniesta played. One such match is the Mallorca match in the 2011/2012 season. Xavi was on the stands, Iniesta was on the bench and was never brought in, Barca won 5-0, Messi scored three goals!
In his national team jersey in matches against Switzerland and Brazil too, Messi score three goals apiece. Does Xavi or Iniesta play for Argentina?

You Ronaldo fanboys need to look for something real to discredit this fantastic player with, else someone would always be around to flog you with facts!

RuuDie:


I am Manchester United fan and Barcelona players are the humblest set of football players I have ever seem in my entire football watching life...maybe off the field, in their private lives, they are different; but as far as i am concerned, when they are in the Camp Nou or in front of the camera, they behave as they are expected to. If you follow La Liga, you hardly see the team get booed even in the 'harshest' of away grounds.

Its evident in their demeanor, the way they celebrate their goals, their comments at press conferences, even from their relatively quiet lifestyle...everything about them echoes modesty and humility.

No wonder they say...they are more than just a club!

Really? You mean behavior like this right?

More stats to expose your ignorance:
Figo went into the 2002 world cup as world best and didn't score a goal.
Ronaldinho went into the 2006 world cup as world best and didn't score a goal.

Like Figo and Ronaldinho, Messi went into the 2010 worldcup as world best and didn't score a goal. Like Figo and Ronaldinho, Messi provided assists.

Is Messi truly the only?

there is nothing in that video but a dispute between Pique and Alves over error in defensive duties after an opponent had a shot a goal. Even goal keepers yell at their defenders over errors.

Just pointing out the fact that they're not the saints you described in terms of behavior. Yeah, players do get dispute (quietly) on the pitch, not quarrel around the entire field of play. Have you seen Barca players behavior when things didn't go their way?

What is not wrong with tapping the shoulder of your elder. Are they mates? Who is C Ronaldo compared to Guardiola in terms of age, record, trophies and all ramifications? That shoulder tapping is an arrogant act. C Ronaldo is very proud and arrogant. When he becomes like Messi, what will happen?

Seriously? Well I am not the one who called Barca players saints. Even the person you quoted said 'humblest players' not 'saints'. What you saw there was Pique criticising Alves for a defensive mixup and Alves refusing to accept it. That was no quarrel, much less a fight. You wanna know players that fight with team mates? Here is one:
Pepe vs Arbeloa of Real Madrid, the same team caoched by Mourinho who poked Tito Vilanova in the eye.

[size=14pt]You see what I mean when I said being a soccer club's fan is a sin. What has "Messi-is-better-than-Ronaldo" got to do with a thoughtless attitude of a coach off the pitch. For the good of the game, whether Madrid fan or not, we should condemn acts such as this arrogant snubbing, eye-poking, etc. On behalf of all Barca fans, I say we are sorry for the act of our legend coach Pep. We condemn the act totally: it is irritating, rude and spiteful. Apology Accepted?[/size]

Well, I didn't bother comparing names in terms of who I responded to initially, thought It was the same person. My use of 'saint' didn't mean using the same word as the first poster. I was only trying to make a point that their not that 'all humble' as he portrayed them to be.

With all these, you're only proving me right, at least they do behave like other teams, and not that 'all humble'. Theirs in on the minimal because they're winning games. Remember, you hardly complain when things are going your way.

Didn't bother viewing the links you posted, because it did nothing but to further prove my point.

Unlike you, I visit other sites too for news and comments from intelligent people. Just like this post and many other on Nairaland, I've seen them in others sites days ahead before they appear on nairaland. Even though I've seen that Ronaldo vs Pep video many times in other sites, I still viewed it here again. So, my friend, don't think everybody is like you that stick to Nairaland for news, they're late at that.
