KinzyeWriter: You should be showing me videos and telling me why his style of play makes him on par or better than Messi. You claim he is the complete player? Explain how you came to that conclusion. 1 Like |

ebosse: Fcck Fifa.com!!! If by now you don't know FIFA tries to be diplomatic with its praise and choices, and tries to honour old players, you know nothing. I can see the clips of CR7 and Cruyff. Cruyff has nothing on him. Cruyff is a rung below and I am being generous because he is a pioneer that has no one else too look at to develop himself. He has natural talent and developed an epic style that has been improved by future generations. If Cruyff was playing today and he played what he used to play then now, I would not even put him in that rung, I would drop him another rung to the levels of Figo and Brian Laudrup. I would agree CR7 is not top 3, he is 4th in my opinion behind Messi, Maradona and Pele. He is the ultimate goalscorer that only Messi and Pele have matched. |

Iamthoney: Son, what are you arguing? You mean the same league that has produced 2 UCL winners and 4 finalists in the last 10 UCLs (including an all English final in 2008) is not making statements in the UCL? Nonsense about the semi-strong teams easily claiming EPL title. These are the kinds of jejune statements that let me quickly know your age. Typical unreasoned, bias but passionate statements. Because you don't want EPL to be the best league does not mean it is not the best league. If the likes of Athletico, Valencia and Sevilla were playing in EPL, they would most likely be ending in the 3rd to 9th position in the league most times. If their players are that good, they would not be taking half the wages they can get at Arsenal at these clubs. The likes of Granada, Gijon and Celta Vigo are no better than Wolves, Reading, Blackpool, Hull and Nottingham Forests in the Championship. 1 Like |

obonujoker: Most of these awards are based on people voting on goals scored in the year. That is the problem with a general vote. Those without analytical skills get to vote. Some of Ronaldo's wins are in seasons when Messi was off a few weeks injured, hence less goals. If someone with a brain does analysis based on ability, what happens on the pitch and contribution to the team, CR7 has NO CHANCE! 2 Likes |

obonujoker: This is where you exhibit your inability to reason and analyse. The only reason CR7 won over Messi is because the idiots voting would look at the fact that Portugal (a team) won the Euros. The idiots would not look at the process of winning, just the fact they won is what matters. That is the fallacy of general vote. That is why Nigeria got GEJ, the most reetarded reetard of reetards as President. In the same period, Messi scored 64 goals in 62 games, while CR7 scored 55 goals in 59 games. That is 1.02 goals per game vs 0.93 goals per game. But idiots would look at what a TEAM won after coming third in a group to attribute it to ONE player. So wipe that smile off your face, son. 1 Like |

Re: Messi's Decision To Stay At Barcelona Ensures He'll Never Be The Greatest Ever by Sagamite(m): 3:10pm On Dec 01, 2017 |
obonujoker: Because of his fcking ability on the pitch. His goals, the quality of the goals, they way he dribbled people, his pace, his intelligence, the way he carried the team etc. Shyt Shearer had only a few of. Back when Henry was King in EPL, if you whispered his name in a girl you are fcking's ear, she would get more wet for you. That was how sexy his football was. |

obonujoker: As much as you are entitled to your opinion, you can never get a top 10 in such rankings. You need to have tiers. Tier 1 1. Messi 2. Maradona 3. Pele 4. CR7 Tier 2 Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Zico, Zidane, Platini, Iniesta, Xavi, Puskas, Di Stefano, Beckenbauer, Matthaus, G. Muller, Kahn, Cruyff, Eusebio, Buffon, Zoff, Yashin etc. And then next tier. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Sagamite: I may agree with U, based on the fact I never really watched Cruyff played. I watched the YouTube video of Roberto Baggio the other day and I was screaming my head off, I asked myself "why isn't Baggio celebrated as much as these other players" ? The answer obviously is because he wasn't as awesome as the YouTube clips made him. ( nonetheless, he still won a 'FiFA world best trophy') . So , I don't believe all these short clips. I rather watch the entire game. So, You may actually be right about CR7 being better than Cruyff. |
