Rubbish


Wetin pele play wey ronaldo and messi no play better.

Just like to hype ancient times....

Rubbish!

The GOAT battle is between ronaldo and messi..

And Ronaldo should top a reasonable list...he has conquered home and abroad.

From national team to England, to Spain and to italy...the consistent wicked record breaker and record creator.


Breaker of records, first of his name, Lord Ronaldo

This same thing you said about acient times is probably what someone will say again in like 100yrs from now when they do this list again...you didn't watch pele so don't judge

People who bring footballers close to Pele make me quite upset... Even going as far as sacrilegiously calling contemporary footballers gods, while the football legend still breathes!!!

Football was invented before the Brazilian was born... But make no mistakes, Pele invented Good Football!!!... He set the standard Messi and Ronaldo continue to copy from.

There is no room for arguments, so don't bother!!! cool

You are indeed objective

nice list but dts what they think.....I think messi is supposed to be ontop of that list because to me he is ahead of pele..
his only fault was not winning a trophy with his country but even if he did, they would still find another way to criticize him and pls dt doesn't take anything away from our GOAT because no player came close to the agentine alien when he was at his peak days in europe not even Pele or cr7 because bk then, the media ran out of words to define him going by the countless magical nights he gave us each matchdays winning soo many big and hard matches on his own..
he made playing football look easy, made dribbling look like he is in his garden with his kids n made scoring goals looks unreal like PS game and also the awards and numbers he did shattered the records book and NO player in this generation can reach his mark in Spain or in Europe....YES I SAID SO...

sorry how old are you, am a messi fan, but u wont need to write this epistle if u saw pele play in his days. a 17yrs old boy who single handedly won the first senior World Cup for Brazil. he was described as a blessing to the game, a speed demon, an extra-terrestrial.
17yrs old messi was yet to be considered for the senior Argentina team.

Finally the world had acknowledge that the real GOAT is Messi above CR7.
This is common knowledge.
Anyone that says cr7 is better is delusional.

Messi is a once in a generation kind of player..
We may not see his type again for another 50 years.

Messi can do little or nothing if he play on the bad pitch Pele played then and with the weight of the ball. But yet, perform magic with the ball and score lots of goals. I know why you are rating Messi or CR7 higher is bc of ballon 'd or right. But you are not aware as of when Pele was playing there is nothing like ballon d or, if not Pele would have won 10 of it.


the maracana stadium do experienced stampede on match days cos everyone wanted to watch pele. if pele plays in this generation, he would win 20 ballon dor. dont mind this our indomie generation, pele scored 1284 career gooooooooals. can messi or ronaldo beat that?. Our ancestors had already seen the best of football, the best of both worlds. no one can replace pele still.

I feel that PELE dude is overrated


Bro, he is not.

I laugh when I see you guys idolizing Messi, CR2, etc over Pele.

Na young age dey do una. wink

Look, there are many games Pele played whose tapes have been lost or were not televised etc, due to the era. But make no mistake, the guy did things with the ball that not even Messi can try today. They are verifiable claims that Pele headed the ball from his box all the way to the halfway line with players chasing him. This was in Brazilian club football. He dribbled up to 10 players in a row once! He could head, run, tackle, cross, dribble. In three world cups, he was banging in goaIs in virtually ever game he played. I mean, the complete player.

If Pele was around today, he'd be an utter beast of the game. He would have even been better, because these days strikers are better protected by the refs, and can display their repertoire of skills more freely.

Nothing but lies, I took my time to watched his documentary bro... He is a very skillful player with a very fast dribbling ability and a good finisher which is same as Messi but he is not creative than Messi, can't dictate the game from midfield... Messi might not score a single goal in a match and still win man of the match award just with only mind-blowing final passes and how he control the game as playmaker, Messi is a goal scorer and a playmaker while pele is just a goal scorer.
Have you watched Messi play for Argentine? the same Messi who plays for Argentine is the same for Barca, Can you compare Messi in Argentina and Messi in Barca? The difference is clear OK. In Barca, Iniesta and Xavier were the engine room, if you remember South Africa World Cup, Both of them were doing the magic and David Villa was scoring the goal, Spain took the cup home, Messi played that tournerment but was not seen. In Barca, Messi is seen by many but Iniesta and Xavier were not recognize but since they both left, look at Barca, last year Barca miraculously won Atlanta but against Bayern you knew what happened. Thank God Messi is still at Barca and we all can attest Messi performance now and let us watch him till the end of the season again. Do you want to talk about age? Bayern is still with last year squad and Muller is still playing and older than all Barca players. The major problem Barca has is that you guys saw Messi to be bigger than the entire Barca and Iniesta and Xavier efforts were nothing because Messi was there. Finally, Barca already have a strong team before Messi enter, thank you.
