Is There A Football Player That You Despise? by 01pudesseld: 6:12am On Aug 04, 2020
In my candid view; Cristiano Ronaldo.

Re: Is There A Football Player That You Despise? by Charleys: 6:15am On Aug 04, 2020
Ruud Van Nistelrooy.

I still hate that guy.

You won't understand, this guy was a football heart breaker.
This guy has scored more offside goals than any player I know.

If there was VAR back then, this guy will beat VAR to score.
Always anticipating where his opponents will be.

And lastly he loves diving to cause penalty. Na that diving pain me pass.

I hated Sergio Ramos & Sergio busquet but as I grow older I realized it's totally stupid to be hating on someone who is doing the job he's been paid to do regardless of how he does it

Now I enjoy watching every footballers even the dirty Arturo Vidal....

That's what makes football more interesting

Mine is messi....because he does not need statistics to win balon d hor....or golden ball, players who score more than him and perform more will always get ditched...
While Ronaldo must need to rack up goals and trophy to be considered for an award.

So you sat comfortably to type this rubbish.

The footballing world has set it standard for Messi higher than any other player.
Every season, Messi is expected to win championship league. Why? Because his performances in cup and league matches are always top notch and everyone is tired to seeing him dominate locally and statistically across Europe . It's either he performs in UCL or forget. World cup wahala is still on is neck

Same can't be said for Ronaldo. Once he scores 20+ league goals, people start shouting for him to be given ballon d'or. How many times do you hear people setting world cup has a standard for Ronaldo? Never.

messi, simply because he scored two penalty against Nigeria in final at U20 World Cup 2005 Holland

Thats because he play for a national team without prestige....and has done considering well with them...be honest had Ronaldo been an argentine would he have won nothing with them till now.

Did messi perform in the ucl last year when he won the balon dor?

And also unlike messi, cr7 can never be judged based on a world cup trophy cuz of the team he plays for.... The fact that cr7 has a trophy with portugal is a miracle itself

Messi was UCL highest goal scorer last season, any season Barca fail to win UCL you always conclude Messi had a bad season.he scored 12 goals last season in UCL,the closest to him was lewandolski with 8, Ronaldo scored 6.
You just end up proving the guy you quoted right.


How can someone be the best player in the tournament he played and someone still think he underperformed just because he didn't win the tournament.
That's the standard Lionel Messi have set for himself.

Since when does being the highest goal scorer in a competition equate to being the best player??
Re: Is There A Football Player That You Despise? by Nobody: 9:13am On Aug 05, 2020
ROJO. simply because the last minute goal he scored against NIGERIA in the past world cup pained me down to my bone marrow. Nigeria would have given france a run for their money.
Re: Is There A Football Player That You Despise? by div111(m): 3:57pm On Aug 05, 2020
Ramos.

Ronaldo- coz he's always receiving the praises when his teammates who suffered for most of the goals he scores(tapins, penalties.) are not hailed.

lastly- rojo, that world cup goal chattered my heart
