SincereBigot:
ronaldo has lifted 2 trophies for his country messi has not

and he didn't play in both finals, fraud.

Messi has for "individual awards" ronaldo has none, I thought we are comparing both players and not their country.

pelnaldo fans and dumb debates

Blazebond:
Messi is good,he is a great,but please you people.should never ever compare messi with the likes of pele and maradona,Messi is not even better than ronaldo of Brazil,and yes he has only succeded at Barcelona and flopped seriously with Argentina,a whole Argentina that is a world power o,a So called great can't inspire them to an international trophy,please you guys calling messi the greatest ever should end that joke,he is nowhere near the greatest,he is at par with Cristiano Ronaldo and can never ever be in the same league with Diego Armando maradona or Pele,no sentiments in football for me o,argue with yourself and your sense,the two greatest ever is still Pele and maradona.

This is your opinion oga, not facts. When people talk about the Argentina stuff and blame only Messi I look at them as pained individual. There are other players in the team. Messi should have won the world cup by now, if you watched the world cup final between Arg and Germany. Messi played a wonderful pass to Higuain,leaving only him and the keeper. All Higuain had to do was put it in the back of the net but oga wasted the chance, if only he had scored there Arg would have won. But alas at the end of the match everyone blamed Messi as usual. The guy has really tried internationally for his country but when his teammates aren't playing with the half the passion or level they do in their club what do you expect. Man has tried, he didn't flop seriously in Arg as he has led them to several finals, his just been unlucky together with underpar teammates.arguero who scores alot for Man City but when he comes to Arg he doesn't play half as good. But no one talks about that, na only Messi must use head carry everything.

That by the way. This has been said before, and its something I really believe, Pele and Maradona won't have the feats they do now if they had played in modern football. But you are entitled to your opinion tho. But I totally disagree

pelnaldo fans and dumb debates

dumb debates? really? so you are going to rate messi about pele or maradona based on individual records? you soung dumb bro..

has messi won any cup for his country? NO!! stop fooling yourself sir

go back to your igbo smoking

[quote author=obembet post=83616471]Former Boca Juniors goalkeeper Hugo Gatti has claimed that the only way Lionel Messi can prove he is the best player in the world is to move to Real Madrid and show that he can achieve what Cristiano Ronaldo did.

Although Messi produced a spectacular performance in Barcelona's 5-1 win against Real Valladolid on Tuesday - scoring a brace and assisting another two - his compatriot isn't convinced that he can do the same against big clubs.

"It seems as if I am anti-Argentine, but until Messi plays in the big games, he will continue to be a player of home games," Gatti told the TV show 'El Chiringuito de Jugones'.

"He has to have balls to go to Real Madrid and prove everything there like Cristiano [Ronaldo did].

"Otherwise he will be just one more [player].

"Cristiano went to the best club in the world. Messi plays at home, on his pitch with everything [that comes with that in terms of home comforts].

"Let him play in the Champions League and the World Cup, otherwise he will always be one more.

"When he plays there, he will fight with [Johan] Cruyff, [Diego] Maradona and Pele.

"Messi plays when they let him play. It's very easy to play with everything in your favour at home."

See this one, most you talk? D whole world know say Buffon pass u him play for Madrid? How can someone be a USA citizen and what to apply for Nigerian Citizenship?

There you go again, you Messi Fans. You don't have to act illogical, like dis guy said something unreasonable because you love Messi.. No thats totally stupid.
OK see it this way. Just be truthful to yourselves;

1. Haven't you ever wished Messi left barca for another team maybe in EPL or Even Laliga. "Just like CR7" . Of course you'd trust he would do well.. But eventually that may never happen

2. Haven't you ever thought to yourselves that Messi leaving Barca to experience what other Leagues felt like would be a great achievement to him. Of course it's highly possible that he'd be successful in that, "just like CR7"

"JUST LIKE CR7"
When you talk of national achievements.. CR7 has done way more better than Messi.. Check the Records.

I know Messi is Great.. But He hasn't achieved this level of success in this Spheres of Football but CR7 has.. Honestly these are often the most Evident reasons CR7 is greater than him weather you LIKE IT OR NOT.

This ex-mumu is a daft

Igbosmoker:
that is how stupid some of Ronaldo fans sound.

They'll say messi should go to EPL, he should win international trophy yet only real Madrid in LA liga has more champions league titles than the useless overrated EPL. Dem too mumu. The same EPL aguero(he can't lace messi boot) is dominating

Messi the only player to win this international achievements

1x Olympic best player
2x copa america best player
1x FIFA world cup best Player.

Oya show me which one pelnado won?

messi has never played in England but have more goals against England top teams than ronaldo who has played there for years .

Messi is 3 years younger but has more golden boots, golden balls, team titles, individual achievement, goals ratio, assists than old papa

Useless and very wrong statistics. You’re just in a rush to prove your ignorance.

has messi won any cup for his country? NO!! stop fooling yourself sir

go back to your igbo smoking

has penaldo score in any final? Dumb debate

Messi is the king

Rapenaldo fans don't just have sense.. We're talking about Madrid and Barcelona.. No other club from any country should be talking.. If Messi wants to leave Barça when he's still strong it's only Madrid he can go to but not possible.. The rivalry is mad

at times I wonder how a reasonable person dat loves football comes to a conclusion dat Ronaldo is better than messi.........na back of tv una day watch?
..........saying Ronaldo is better than messi is an absolute insult to football and talent.........

Messi leave your comfort zone and prove yourself elsewhere

Gentlemanforyou:
I believe you played bet9ja and picked Ronaldo to win the fifa world best , because this hate too much and if you no careful he go lead you to hug transformer and this time you go shock

Lord av mercy

My problem with Messi's enemies telling him to go to another team is laughable.

1. Which Team will buy Messi?
2. At what Price?
3. Will Barcelona Sell?

Enemies should also put themselves in Messi shoe, will they leave where they are doing very well?
I mean, a club that picked you up, polish you, make you the world most expensive player. He has won everything in club football with Barcelona, and they love and cherish him.

Well, lastly to haters, Messi will not leave barca, they can go hug transformer

Beverlyjean:
He said it all... Let Messi go to another club whr everything wudnt b easy for him , then we gonna know his true worth... Every player plays for him in Barca , the tactics in Barca is made specially for him and that's y players like de Jong and greizman is finding it difficult ... Let him go to another club whr they also hv their star player and let's c if he will progress... To also has don it multiple times .. Messi should do sNe to prove he's the greatest... But his delusional fans on NL will insult the es goalie and Ronaldo like as if it was Ronaldo that asked the ex goalie to make the comment... Messi fans are like the blind uneducated illogical abokis supporting the government sheepishly

Every player plays for him yet he has most assists? Very daft reasoning.

For saying that you re a very very stupid man or goal keeper. Fool at 30.

So, it has come to this??

Pele and Maldini will be laughing hard right now
Your comment is touching

danot1030:
Messi supporters don't like this challenge being thrown at Messi, ask them what are they afraid of, they know definitely that Messi cannot achieve the what Ronaldo achieved.

When i see them argue here i am amazed at their cluelessness, they don't know what value is. Organizations around the world will put their money on Ronaldo to be their companies image rather than Messi, more people will follow Ronaldo on the social medias than they will do Messi because they value the achievement of Ronaldo to Messi not just supporting for fun on nairaland.

Messi is just a home boy

Check the last Monday sir!!

Madam dejong is adapting well griezman is playing out of position because of suarez

jaxxy:
Not necessarily Madrid bt he has to prove himself outside Barca even if it’s his National team. Period!

World cup golden ball

Dem no born am. Every knows that e won’t survive it

Check the last Monday sir

SEGLIZ:
............ the same argument they hate listening to.
just wait and read their argument against, dumb reasoning and defence.

Pele and Maldini are laughing hard at the fake arguments tho

More tears and wailing for Tapnaldo and his fans when Messi is announced as balon d'or winner.

First, they said it was Ronaldinho, Guardiola then Xavi, Iniesta, after they left, they resorted to Neymar. Funny enough how the GOAT has been topping charts and making history long after they all left. Now in the absence of players to blame for carrying Messi, they claim there is a spiritual power that ties Messi's Genius to Barcelona, an entity which will be defeated should Messi play another team

Who's this one....?

NORSYK:
Messi is fear fear man

You forgot to add VARsil..

A fear fear man that blast Comebol openly ??

I have never seen a player blasting a whole football federation of corruption like Messi.. He was confident of himself..

Even Maradona was happy to hear that..

But Ronaldo fans just want Messi to get injured in a final while De Paul score a winning goal so that Messi can equal the cheerleading great!!
No way...

Messi will rather lose in the final courtesy Higuain misterclass, than to claim a trophy as an injured handicap!!!

what has Ronaldo achieved biko

Fuckthamods:
Only idiots will call that camp nou dweller the GOAT.. I'm sure if he were in juventus his form will be worse than when playing for Argentina, the only time he might get to shine is when he meets a club that plays like Nigeria.
Anyways, I'm here to see them wail. They hate it when everyone aren't idiots like them.


Here is the true king and god of football.

Anceloti and Klop are better than Alex Ferguson.
This is a fact.

all in one club. Let Messi move abd you will be left head bowed.

Did CR7 join Madrid at 32years of age? He should shove his opinion up his ass, the whole world can't be wrong, Messi is the best ever

Jokerman:


In Argentina, Maradona > Messi

So how can Messi be above them??

You mean VARadona the guy that scored a hand ball goal in a World Cup match without getting red carded... Choose your legend carefully!!!

Even Griezmann win a World Cup!!

Does that make him better than Platini who did not win any World cup??

Tomoyayi:


Messi fans are the same. Simple question you cannot answer.
People remember trophies.
You cannot be the best if you cannot win a trophy with your country.

SAFE

So Eder is better than Ronaldo

An injured handicap that got SALAHed in the final against toughest opponent
No wonder Cristiano did not win the best player of the tournament!!!

Check Ronaldo vs France highlights in Euro 2016 final, you will not see any action on the field!!!

Gotze is better
