Has your Ronaldo ever scored 91 goals in a single calendar year? Has he ever scored 50league goals in a season? Has he scored in 22 consecutive league games in a row? Has he won top scorer, top assister and Mvp all in one tournament ever before? I can go on and on and on

Messi is far better with passes, dribbling and team play. Messi doubles as a midfielder most of the time; a skillset Ronaldo lacks. If Messi doesn't score for you, you'll still play him because he brings other contributions apart from goals to the team. If Ronaldo doesn't score for you, and you still play him, you already have a minus one in your team. If he's that good all round,I don't see why Ten Hag would bench him. Messi can't be benched in any team in this life and beyond. He will only stop play playing when he hangs his boot. You' think football is just to stand in the box and wait for crosses and score one or two goals and win Man of the match. Na why Ten hag wan use bench kill am because he offers nothing than goals and becomes minus one when Utd are defending.

Two teams who ended their World Cup 2022 group-stage campaigns with defeat prepare for battle in Sunday's last-16 clash at the Al-Thumama Stadium as reigning champions France take on Poland.

Les Bleus finished first in Group D to make it through to the knockout rounds, while Czeslaw Michniewicz's men set up a tie with the holders after placing second in Group C.

Match preview

Having become the first manager to lead his side through to the knockout rounds of the 2022 World Cup, France coach Didier Deschamps was not afraid to ring the changes for Les Bleus' final Group D showdown with Tunisia, but a second-string side could not remain perfect in Qatar.

With the likes of Kylian Mbappe, Ousmane Dembele and Antoine Griezmann all kept in reserve, Tunisia took advantage and drew first blood through Wahbi Khazri in the 58th minute, although Griezmann thought that he had levelled the scores right at the death.

However, VAR intervened after the final whistle to rule the Atletico Madrid man's goal out for offside, which has reportedly led France to file a complaint with FIFA, but Les Bleus nevertheless held on to their first-placed standing, keeping Australia at bay on goal difference.

What's the difference? It's just 2 years and that's almost insignificant cuz Messi even look older sef. You and I know I'm telling the truths. Even in his late 20s and early 30s, it was just goals and nothing more!

paradigmshift:

2 years is insignificant in a footballers age? When Ronaldo was 35 was he not still a tip player?

go and watch Ronaldo early days again especially when he started playing for Manu. Then he played as a winger and could run with the ball and beat defenders but as age started catching up with him, he started refining his style of play. Check is stats and assist when he was at Madrid and compare it with that of Messi and u will know it isn't only about the goals.

Most of these Messi fans are children that just started watching football ...Ronaldo has been playing football for over 20 yrs now... simply means a a 25 yr old wuddnt have watched him during his early Manchester utd days .... they started watching him when he stopped the dribbles and concentrated on goals ... they dont know that he still has the world record with most completed dribbles in a single game ( Manchester vs Benfica) with 20 completed dribbles...they dont know he has more assists than Messi in the CL ... they dont know messi first scored in the CL b4 Ronaldo did ....

With your Ronaldo being the all time highest goals scorer, why did Messi has more golden shoes than him? Why hasn’t he ever won sixth trophies in a season? Why hasn’t he played in a World Cup final? Why didn’t he win more Pichichi than Messi when they were both together in Spain? Why hasn’t he won more man of the match than Messi, why hasn’t he ever scored in a knockout match at the World Cup? Why does Messi has more goals and assists contributions than him despite playing lesser number of games than your Ronaldo? Why hasn’t he won more Ballon D’or than Messi? Why does Messi has more goals against Epl top six than Ronaldo when he hasn’t ever played in the Epl and your Ronaldo played there for 7 years plus in two different spells? Why has Messi outscored Ronaldo when they both meet? You talking about to Ronaldo scoring 78 goals a season but failed to mentioned how many penalties he scored but you was quick to call out Messi’s figure. Your Ronaldo will forever be beneath Messi, you know it, Georgina knows it, his mom knows it, his first son knows it and his sister knows it

Mbappe my small GOAT. I can't wait for Mbappe to win another World Cup! I pray FIFA makes it every 2 years so Mbappe will end his career with 4-5 WCs. At the end of Mbappe's career, you will decide who your GOAT is Pele won 3 out of 4 WCs. Mbappe might be more successful at international level and equal Pele's record. Why do I love Mbappe because he is African descent. Call me racist I don't care.

You love him cos you be Pendu fan, dunce!!!
