Highest penalty goal scorer and NOT highest all time goal scorer
And Messi d Undisputed GOAT has more outside d box goals against penaldo in 140+ leaser appearances.
Messi d undisputed GOAT will always be ahead and better than penaldo because he has achieved far more than penaldo and plays far better than penaldo (game play).
Goals win games and yet Messi d undisputed GOAT has more career trophies than penaldo.
So it means penaldo only scores useless goals
No wonder he has no international MVP in 14 international appearances.
No Wonder he has no single medal in d greatest and biggest tournament in world football
No Wonder he is d biggest world cup flop in history
Imagine a useless goal scorer who has no Goals and assists and any single MOTM in 5 world cup appearances.
Messi will forever be ahead than that overrated piece of penalty shit whether you or anybody likes it or not.
It is only brainless and delusioned folks that will rate a useless local penalty champion ahead of the ONLY world champion and undisputed GOAT that has completed football

Lol

See how you vent out on a billionaire
And someone even far more successful than 99.9% of footballers alive

If you can write all these hate on Ronaldo

As useless as you claim the most useless

Lol

Lukaku is better than Ronaldo

Even wellbeck is better than him

You have tried

Your hate is duly noted

Well I don't think Unsuccessful people get hate
Only hate on successful people

Like you now
Who will sit down in another country and write an epistle of how useless you are in your profession When in your mind you're actually the best at what you currently do

Let me guess no one

CandidAdmin:
As the question goes, how many people have you said I love you to?

For me it's zero.

Question for the day - How many of them did you mean?

The only person I have said I love you to and I meant it was my

[/b]secondary school crush that year [b]

Ever since then

All the I love you was I love something about that particular person

And when the thing tire me

The love don clear be that

It's either I chop breakfast or the person serve it

Chidolalar:
Carry your rigged ucl Penaldo was winning with pure offside goals and dubious and undeserved penalties and get out
Imagine penaldo playing over 183+ penalties
Penaldo for a reason
D only individual award penaldo deserves is penalty d'or
Very useless and overrated penalty merchant

Bro

Let me even help you hate him more

Ronaldo has played 183 official penalties

And has Scored 154

Meaning he missed 29
In official games

So yes He is Penaldo
The best penalty taker


Messi has taken 140 penalties
Scored 109
Missed 31

Messi can't be called pessi because he doesn't play penalties he gives those 140 penalties to other players

See let the matter rest

You're allowed to have your favourite

Leave people to their own favourite

This just like Wizkid v Davido debate

Stick to who you like or enjoy both

You rant on one the loyal fans of the other will come for you

Chidolalar:
And billions and billions of people rate Messi over that overrated piece of penalty and tapin local shit in world football

Billions noni

So Messi has more "loyalist" fans than Ronaldo,
Die hard fans?

Even rocket goals from half the field too is tapin
140 headers are tapins
Free kicks are tapins
Hundreds of winning goals and clutch goals are tapins

[/b]Even Haaland the king of tapins can't call Ronaldo tapin[b]

But its cool

Fans of the dwarf are always Bitter

What's my Own. HISTORY WILL FOREVER have Ronaldo's name As the Highest goal scorer in the history of the game

[/b]Football is all about Goals[b]

Not dribbles
Goals win games
Not dribbles

No matter how ugly it is
Goal is Goal

Messi has Hundreds of Penalties
Ronaldo can't be sorry He actually Scores the penalty which adds point to his team and Stats to his name

So yes He is Penaldo the best penalty taker

charleyboy:
Make Ronaldo go bring e arranged World Cup come make we see.
Ronaldo has nothing to show for his 5 outings at the World Cup, that’s a big shame for a player you consider great.

Please apart from Pele, name another player that has one 3 World cups, your hate and bias is just so obvious.

At least he had a silver medal to show from 2014, it doesn’t matter at what age he won it, it tells you a lot if a 35 year old can give you a stellar performance at the World’s biggest change, becoming the MVP of the tournament, shame to the younger ones in the tournament.

The dwarf is well known all over the world and na that e dwarfism dey give am stability to dribble and play scintillating football.

He can go and play anywhere he wishes, he has nothing to prove to anyone and has completed football, he stands tall above every other in the game of football.

Goodluck to him

Well Millions and millions of people outside Nairaland

Still believes Ronaldo is far Greater than Messi

I and Many many Millions of people belong to That group

Privileged to watch him From 2003 till 2023

20yrs of real Greatness

Kids that started watching him when he became old and started declining can rant all they want

Messi will be 38yrs old one day

Ronaldo at 37 was still in the Premier league Hardest league of all even when he was too old for that league
Started declining at 38 faster
Ronaldo de Lima and Ronaldinho sef no reach 33yrs at the top level

So you can continue adding "Undisputed " to Messi

When half sports fan around the world Follow the other person

Both are great

But I prefer Ronaldo by far

Made so so many memories for me when young

Chidolalar:
Penaldo should become the ONLY World champion to complete football like d undisputed GOAT Messi before he can come close to d Undisputed GOAT Messi.
Imagine comparing a useless penalty and tapin local champion like penaldo who has no single medal and zero world cup knockout goals and assists in d biggest and greatest tournament to an undisputed world champion like Messi who has completed football

Carry his arranged world cup and stick it up his a.hole

Mbappe has a world cup

If Messi is so great

Why doesn't he have 3 to 5 world cups?

Why wait till 35 to lift world cup. What happened to being the best and winning the world cup every year its organised as the "Undisputed" goat

So many players have 3 world cups

If France won that match
Mbappe would Have 2 world cups

If Messi fans Respected Ronaldo For all the blood he gave the sport

I don't even see what you people enjoy in that boring dwarf weirdo aside dribbling and scoring

Personality Zero. Charisma zero. Inspiration Zero. Celebration Zero. Influence sef to me Zero

Why so many Players not following the Best player to MLS?

Let me guess MLS clubs are poor and they don't have money like Saudi?

Since those in Saudi went for money ba

Nasri100:
I remember that world cup final when Argentina were leading France 2 - 0. My whatsapp status section was relatively very mute.

Then Mbappe did the comeback and everywhere was buzzing. Ronaldo fans (mostly man United fans) were buzzing everywhere.

I saw the frustration and hurt when Messi eventually got his price. Many didnt want him to win it.

I actually respect Messi & Ronaldo. Both changed the game.

However i will always pick Messi cause hes better.

Messi is not better kankan

Messi changed club once and went to Psg and flopped
Got booed out


Ronaldo has had to adapt to 3 different clubs in 3 different countries before moving to Saudi making it 4

In all 3 he did exceptionally well infact over well

(Pls I don't count anything in his old age from 37,38yrs onwards because to me he should be retired already by 36)

If only you know how changing club and league can destroy a good player

Ask Hazard the best player in the Premier league become shit in laliga

For that Alone

Ronaldo is the best

Just look at his numbers at Real madrid
450goals in 437 matches

Meaning he scored more goals than matches played

Now imagine he started his career from real madrid and ended it there for 17yrs straight like messi before shipping out to PSG

Adapting to a new club 3 times during His PRIME makes Him my Goat

Ronaldo is still the last Premier league player to win the ballo dor

Since how many years ago?

If haaland is lucky and can Win 1 above Favourite Messi then congrats to him

Because it takes something extraordinary To beat Messi in the eyes of Fifa

And Ronaldo did it 5 different years

fergie001:
I have never wanted a Coach to be sacked as much as Ten Hag.

I have been shouting this since December, Dem say I be Ronaldo fan-boy. Baba don't know anything jareh.

He's definitely going soon

Because his signings are shit

Just bringing bullshit players to add to the bullshit we have

Mount
Anthony
Onana
Evans
Weghourst
Etc

And he's too stubborn to bench anthony

Gernacho should have been brought in way earlier
Hojlund too since halftime

Dollywood:
How were those goals Onana's fault?

That guy wasted almost 30mins caressing balls we were meant to be playing

Then any shot against him na sure goal

From pre season to now

How many goals has he swallowed

arantess:
JESUS
I talk am here onana na clown in a circus

He has learnt today

The first match he played and they kept scoring asif he is doing bonanza

I already knew united season is over

Last 5 seasons

United have been saved ONLY BY DE GEA

United defense gets hammered so many shots de gea saves

Onana can't save shit

Then he waste almost 1hr on the ball caressing it

BoldBrainz:
You cannot blame Onana for this one. You cannot.

I will and I will

As I dey buy eafc 24

I dey transfer am comot for united
Bring back my de gea

Rubbish wanna be ball playing basket keeper

Ade1177:
Very any how keeper

Like wtf are you a keeper or a midfielder

When they shoot at him

Na instant goal

He leaves his job and be dancing on the ball

Who needs all that romancing when all he'll do is give it back to the opponent

Onana

AZControversial:
Honestly! He's trouble that keeps waiting to happen.

f!!!! Onana

Very stupid keeper

prinsam30:
na u dey mind them, aswear some people sentiment no go allow them see the truth, United are not known of playing from the back that's a strange kind of playing football in united even the great Sir Alex will not play this shît pattern

If only Erik didn't sign mount and actually spent that money on strikers.

United needs 6 forwards that are hungry for goals

Like are they blind

See Liverpool
Gakpo
Nunes
Jota
Salah
Dias
Etc

These guys are hungry for goals

United has just rashford
Then others dancing with the ball then pass back

AZControversial:


Onana plays like he's under the influence of some substance. He derives pleasure in dancing with the ball for some time.

Very any how keeper

Like wtf are you a keeper or a midfielder

When they shoot at him

Na instant goal

He leaves his job and be dancing on the ball

Who needs all that romancing when all he'll do is give it back to the opponent

descartes400:
With him on the field, we are playing minus one.

Baba Anthony is the only forward in that team in the first half

Martial should be sent to sunday school

That guy just wasted a whole first half

Even worse than harverts

And pls
This onana is very very annoying to me

If you want to be a player go and remove that yellow shirt and sign as a midfielder

Which one is ball reach your side you use 10mins to caress ball and send it back to the opponent

His real job to save goals or stop shots ZERO

Onana is the worst keeper in the Premier league

MikeofKd:
Truly an insightful piece u got there OP. I believe Your 20s should be meant for adding substantial values to yourself as a man , learn skills , learn to solve problems , network , work smart.

Forget about love in your 20s , be ruthless . No woman loves an unsuccessful man tbh , stop blaming yourself , stop blaming your parent , stop blaming your Government , take charge of your life and stop swimming in pity parties . No one is coming to save you in this life.

Once you prepare well in your 20s , your 30s would become soft work. Also learn from men who has made mistakes. One of the mistake I can never make in my 20s is to get a girl pregnant or get married , Am I mad ? Even if I have the funds it’s still a no no for me, cause marriage in your 20s is a huge distraction fr.
Work with God side by side , let him direct your path. You have to work very smart and hard in this life ,especially in this Nigeria.

Last paragraph is the biggest Lesson any guy should hold

God just saved me

When you start making small money in your late 20s
Pressure from your gf and family be like you should get married.
Your gf starts making it look like you're using her and you are not serious asking you to come and meet her parents

You see other young people pretending like they are happy getting married young

Let your child grow with you etc
Give birth early etc

But when you realise by 35yrs old as a successful man you're just hitting your own prime as a 18yrs old lady

You can get married by 40 and above if you wish

The only exception to this is if you become rich before 30

If you're still struggling

Pls break up with your gf if she ask for marriage
No matter how fine she is
The fear of another man being with that girl you love so much shun it
Don't get married to her

Go out and be a beast
Be the guy that Can't be bothered about Loosing your girl to another Rich man because of lack of money

Bukola94:
Kelvin is the 3rd best player currently. I will rank Karim Benzema over Neymar. Neymar is so unserious and career may not have happy ending, just like Balotelli and Adriano

Baba

Kelvin debryune is in the same category as iniesta and xavi

But none of the 3 midfielders can be in the conversation of Best footballer in this generation

Messi
Ronaldo
Neymar

Anything outside these 3 for the last 10 to 15yrs
2008 to 2021 is just you having a personal preference

mayor1814:
In fact, d most surprising and shocking one was Tapnaldo. He was rejected by European top clubs. but I even thought he would squeeze in a decent European club but NO.


As for others, none were surprising. They went for money and retirement plans.

What about neymar?


I thought after Messi and Ronaldo
Neymar was the 3rd best player of this currently generation

Why is nobody attacking him as Dive-nay-mar

See all humans are the same when it comes to what drives you to work for another Club or organisation

Money
Money
More money
Much more money

victory36:
All these one you are saying is story for the gods. Most Players play for the money, it's not trophies that will sustain them after retirement. My own take is that they should use the money wisely. Those who play for passion can keep on playing in Europe. It's their personal choice/life not ours to decide.

Even those that play in Europe play for money

The reason why a player will snub Fulham and say yes to Manchester united

Is because Fulham will offer 40k
United will offer 250k

Incase you need to watch football for entertainment to enjoy your money

These clubs accordingly are the best club in the Premier league with a good coach and a very good squad that understands football

1. Man city
2. Brighton
3. Arsenal
4. Liverpool
5. Newcastle
6. Aston villa
7. Manchester united (bunch of dancers pretending to be players)
8. Chelsea (a club with 50 players within 2 seasons and 4 coaches)

OGGamershub:
Hehe I am playing a lotta games right now honestly, but I'm focusing on a particular game built on the Hive blockchain called Splinterlands . It actually helps me make real life money, everything in the game has a real world value. It's crypto stuff sha and it's very cool.

I'm interested
Dm?

crazygod:
Oga forget VAR. It was the same VAR that affirmed MacAlister's red card yet after the appeal, the red card was overturned. That tackle was yellow at best. But no single card for Joelinton. Double standards.

It's a yellow card offense normally

But have noticed this season

Alot of offences has been amplified

If just wasting 10 seconds can lead to yellow card

Just making gesture to the ref asking yellow for opponent will land you yourself yellow card

Talking back at the ref in an aggressive manner yellow card

So many things have been introduced this season for just yellow card

Hence
Red cards too will be frequent

Especially denying a goal scoring opportunity as the last man

I

mayor1814:
There is no need to argue this coz normally there isn't any argument or debate in the first instance. Messi is no longer in football conversion. He's now in conversion of sport best athlete with the likes of Michael Jordan and Muhammad Ali.


He's always been the best since 2012/13. All these comparisons do not hold substance. Have a good day.

That's your personal opinion

More than half football fan base around the world still believes

Ronaldo is the best ever Football player with all records and Stats to back him up

And will continue to be a debate outside nairaland and far more countries more than Nigeria FOR YEARS TO COME

As millions and millions of people around the world fell in love with Football because of 1 person


And that is cr7.

You can deny that doesn't mean it's not a fact

mayor1814:
It's kids that rate Tapnaldo as high as messi. The reality is Messi is way above tapnaldo in ranking. Is it the dribbles, the magnificent assists, the free kicks, the playmaking roles etc


Ur fave is called Mr. Champions league, have u ever wondered y he couldn't transform that success to national team most especially at d world cup? Not even a bronze medal.

Asif I knew you'll steer the conversation to world cup

So why have messi not won the World Cup 3 Times?

Many players have won 3 World cups

If Messi is so so high

Why wait till he's 35

Messi is far far better and should have won atleast 2 or 3 out of the 5 world cup he played in

And mind You

Ronaldo has done far far great things for portugal
But I am not Portuguese so I won't go into how he Brought portugal to limelight post Figo era and stepped up

Messi and Ronaldo can't win the same world cup in the same competition same year

1 has to win it Messi did

Qudos to him

They were both without world cups for 4 different tournaments

So they are on the same level
1 just slightly better

Don't make it sound so high high

Like he has 5 world cups
And he won all his matches and didn't flop in PSG

mayor1814:
Baba some of us we're fortunate to witness d magnificence of players like romario, bebeto, maradona, Ronaldo de Lima, zidane, rivaldo, Ronaldinho, messi etc and I can confidently say that Tapnaldo u are hyping is no match for all these legends I've mentioned skill wise, is it their vision, dribbles or complete mastery of the game? D only thing going for Tapnaldo is the high number of matches he has played, nothing more and the number of goals he has scored. No special skill or magnificent skill. Just goals, goals, goals. Much of which included lots of penalty kicks n tap ins.

You can stop typing now

You clearly only putting Ronaldo version from 2016 down to 2023 into account for scoring goals goals goals

And completely disregard

2004 to 2014/2015 version of Ronaldo which lasted for 10yrs being so skillful and dribbles and free kick technique

All those players you mentioned above don't have half the number of haters Ronaldo has Constantly comparing you in an abusive manner to just 1 single person for 15yrs

Just watch how pundits hang him every week during his madrid and Juventus days

For years it has always been and will always be a story of Ronaldo and Messi

For him to still come out on top Is the reason Many prefers Ronaldo

And watch Ronaldo interview about Messi

He sometimes accept Messi is better if It's your opinion
But in his mind He is bold enough to say and Play it out that he is Better than Messi

Also motivates you to never accept anyone is better than you
And strive to always be the best in whatever profession you find yourself

Even when people prefers others to you

Proof them wrong

mayor1814:
Realistically, calculate numbers if games to goals scored ratio and see who really is the highest goal scorer. Not just playing over 100 games more than Messi and yet u are leading messi with less than 40 goals. So d goals tapnaldo keeps hanging on, realistically Messi has a better stat in that regard

Baba
So many people played 5,000 games without any 1 goal

Because your favourite player is Messi doesn't mean

Ronaldo about to hit 850 career goals is something easy

Even haaland will sweat Blood from his anus to come close to that record

Only kids call Ronaldo tapin

I can accept now that he is old he is average and scores easy goals

But you forget how he amassed those 700 to 800 goals in those 15yrs scoring bangers. Hattricks, free kicks. And Match winning penalties . SUPERMAN headers etc

Be honest with yourself
Will millions of people fall in love with a footballer just because he scores tapins?

He has done so so so many extraordinary things during those 15yrs to be loved by others and amass so many haters

He's called Mr champions league By the champions league itself

For holding almost every single record in that competition which is regarded as the biggest Club competition in the world

Having hundreds of Clutch moments

You can love Messi but don't disrespect Ronaldo

kunleiky:
Very disrespectful comment, but this can pass for an opinion since a faceless forum like this allows kids
Why didn't you tell us the countries of those players above, and if the countries have won more than a world cup in history of the tourney.
SMH for you

Don't mind them

This people just don't know that Football is Ultimately about Goals

Without Goals

All your serere is nothing

And Football is calculated Based on Goals

And who is the person with the Most Goals in the history of football?

Cr7

To appreciate what he has done

Haaland scoring like a mad robot will have to do the same thing without having any bad season for another 15yrs

You like messi fine
Why disrespect a Legend

MrBroke:
I saw Ronaldo at Man utd, so nothing I missed. I also play football not professionally though cause Niger get her own profession for all of us, the way I watch, play and understand football is like how analyst see it with everything taken to account hence the reason Ronaldo wouldn't be in my top 5 football players. It is not hate, I can't hate a legend of a sport I love but people comparing him to Messi is just too sentimental and bias hence the reason a lot of us get annoyed by it. Ronaldo is good, in my ultimate team of all time he is definitely my number 9 but he is no where near Messi. So make we just dey honest

Alright

Same question I always ask all of u in this same category

Be honest with yourself


Mention just 1 player BETTER than Cristiano Ronaldo
For the past 16yrs

For everything he has done in his career
1. Playing style
2. Records
3. League
4. Cups
5. Champions league
6. Idol in his country
7. Idol in his club

Then Fan base (people who actually believe He is the best thing they have ever seen)

[/b]*If Messi was not Alive* [b]

Let's assume Messi is not Alive

Pls do not mention any player during black and white TV era

Who else can you compare to Messi
If not Ronaldo?

MrBroke:
Nothing else. I'll pick more than 4 players after Messi b4 him excluding Maradona and Pele. Wetin Ronaldo sabi apart from goal, him no sabi play ball na just ability to score goal. All round na waste

Most of the people saying this are people that just purely hate Ronaldo or kids that knew Ronaldo from 2018 till 2023

Fun fact
Ronaldo and Messi are meant to be retired since 2021.

Anything they do now is just old age playing

At what age did Ronaldinho retire out of Europe
Was he not better than Ronaldo?
Even R9 delima ronaldo

Ronaldo is an old man and A billionaire
Same as Messi

Anything he does now is just to stat pad

Hence why erik boot him out

During Ronaldo prime which lasted for 15 to 16yrs
Only kids will call Ronaldo a tap in merchant like Haaland

If only you saw Rocket goals and Rocket free kicks he scored
And how Only Messi was better than him in some years within those 15,16 yrs

You'll respect him

Without Ronaldo
Messi will have 12 ballon Dor

Only Ronaldo was good enough to battle him and won 5

Also if there was no Messi
Ronaldo would easily dominate the world for those 12 ballon dors

One didn't win a particular Year ONLY because the other exist

How can you hate someone like that?
