Watch hw his useless fans crawl out of his a**hole n post nonsense. His lack of passion keeps denying him a major international trophy. Maradona threw the challenge at him,waited n waited till he died,if winning an international trophy will bring maradona back to life then i'm sorry,his corpse will be thr for 600yrs

I completely agree with this even though I am more of a Messi fan. I know Diego and Pele are the two greatest footballers of all time. But the op is not wrong here. Maradona has this passion that has never been seen in the game since he retired. His determination to win at all cost is second to none. This is what Messi lacks and what Ronaldo has. Ronaldo is very determined to win at all cost. Though his passion is lesser than Diego.
For me in this GOAT debate,
1, pele
2, Maradona
3,Zidane
4, Ronaldo Delinma
5, Christiano Ronaldo
6, Messi.

Both Messi and Christiano Ronaldo has that rating because of their inability to win the big one ( THE WORLD CUP) And Ronaldo is above Messi for me because he won with his country and Messi didn't. But I love Messi more than him because he is more exciting to watch.

Fan boys keep coming here to tell us about Messi and Ronaldo when they fail to win the Big one. No disrespect to them anyway

FuckThaMod:
There is only one GOAT in football and his name is Cristiano Ronaldo. He is not faking retirement from his National team, not faking transfer from his club after choking in big games. His passion and emotions he shows during the game is part of what makes him the greatest sportsman ever. So determined to win at any cost and that's why i laugh when i see some messi dogs call him divenaldo, it's all part of the passion for the game.

Those who undermine this great and good man will eat their words some day.

You made no sense....

fergie001:

Only 8 Countries have won the World Cup that has held 20 times...

They even forget that during Maradona and Pele's time, Balon d'Ors aren't given to non-European players till the rule changed in 1995.

They also don't know that FIFA best player commenced in 1991/92.

They also don't know that Maradona won the U-21 World Cup as Captain in 1979.

They also don't know that Maradona will be the only Barca player to receive a standing ovation @ the Bernabeu, until Ronaldinho in 2015/16.

I have been watching football, and many times will take a Zidane & de Lima over a Ronaldo/Messi.

Even the great Maradona whilst alive have always said Ronaldo has the passion and win-at-all costs mentality, referring him to a "Beast".

Diego Simeone(ATM Coach), a fellow Argentine who played with Maradona has also repeated same thing plenty times.

But.....NL analysts who started watching Barca in 2006 think otherwise.

Its football, it is what it is.

Perhaps, we know something the Argentine greats don't.

You said it as it is brother. I will always take Ronaldo delinma and Zidane over Messi and C Ronaldo era. From what I saw during Zidane and Delinma, the competition and everything, they are the second GOATs after pele and Maradona. They conquered all fronts and won the most important trophy.

ThierryJay:
Absolute balderdash from Jorge Jesus. Messi is as passionate for football as ever. The fact that he doesn't express much emotion like Maradona and Cristiano does not mean he doesn't love the game with his heart. Messi that is reputed to always want to play even when he is not fully fit. He is reserved doesn't mean he doesn't have passion Olodo Jorge.

And passion does not even determine greatness. Steven Gerard is probably the most passionate EPL player ever but is not regarded as good as a less passionate Thierry Henry. So I don't know what this Portuguese imp is trying to achieve with the unintelligent comparison.

Jostoman:
so what about U20 world cup and Olympic Gold medal that he won for Argentina.

FahBuLous:
I am sorry to say this but anyone who says messi wasn't born a football and doesn't has passion for the game is an "IDIOT".... Messi plays more like maradona than ronaldo... I don't what this "IDIOT" is saying.... Smh
