Lol. Pray he doesn't end up as his fellow Countrymen Eusebio, Preteo and maybe Figo.


The battle has always been between Messi, Pele, and Maradona.. All South Americans.


Europe doesn't come any point close.

Lol... Eusebio and the rest do not come close... He has even toppled cryuff, distephano and other Europeans

Everyone knows south Americans are very talented and better than Europeans when it comes to football, buh greatness comes from what they acheived, and you must agree with me Ronaldo will be in top 5 greatest ever players ( A European )

For me though

Pele
Maradona
Cr7
Messi
Zidane
Delima

I'm putting cr7 over Messi coz he's my preferred player...
Note the list above is based on acheivements not on pure footballing basis

FirstbornWds:
Are you really a joker?

You said we should bring on their stats in Laliga. Now it's UCL.

Nawa for you o

So I should allow you win all through abi

FirstbornWds:


Whilst one is going about struggling to tell the that he's better than the second, the other guy doesn't need to move before the world appreciates the brilliance.


You just cannot lower your standards simply because some irrelevant talks wants you to.

Once a standard in modern football, always a standard.

Best that bro.

Struggling?? And he has won best player in each top league he has played in? The first footballer to do so?

If he wins UCL, serieA golden boot and European golden boot at Juve

No doubt he will be termed the greatest ever footballer with Pele coming 2nd to him

FirstbornWds:
Still, Messi is a more prolific scorer than him. Beat that anywhere.


The other guy has had more game time, yet the Argentine midget still beats him at what he knows how to do best.

UCL
Country
Laliga

More prolific??

FirstbornWds:
You'll just talk sometime and I'll wonder if you considered that you'll be embarrassed with your verdict.

So, even though Rknaldo was more of a provider, he still couldn't beat Messi assist rate. Little wonder why he is even within that range.

Oya, bring out the laliga stats. Let's open Sarah bank's legs for ourselves.

Ronaldo has more assists than Messi in UCL

adewumiopeyemi:
Motor go jam you last. Last

Opeyemicollins... Ode omo

ddippset:
The bolded; hehehehehehehehehehehehe


Okay compare their la liga statistics from the 2009/10 season.

For starters Messi won 7 best player in la liga Awards.
Ronaldo won 1.

Continue!

Lol... You win this round... Buh Ronaldo should have won 2... Since Madrid won two league titles

However in individual awards in laliga I accept Messi triumps Ronaldo

I'm talking about their goals and goal ratio that you people always talk about ni

ddippset:
With over 150 more games?

I know it's a faceless forum but stop embarrassing yourself.

Oga Ronaldo has not been consistent in one club... He has played in 4 clubs, so the number if games is bound to happen and Ronaldo wasn't naturally a forward, he was a provider and chance creator at sporting and man utd days

Let compare their laliga statistics

Lol... CW shows

I wonder how they degenerated them into kiddies show... Look at legends of tomorrow I had hope on

Batwoman is doing well... Just hope it doesn't go the Supergirl way

ddippset:
Am i not better?
The guy i quoted only gave for UCL.
While I gave for the leagues, UCL and cups.


Abi do you want me to give you their all-time stats as well.

Trust me you don't. It's still equally embarrassing for your boy.

Lol.... All time stats

Ronaldo still leads in goals... Messi only leads in assists....so??

ddippset:
Below is what STAGGERING is;

Messi;

Appearances 718
Goals 627
Assists 247
Penalties 73


Ronaldo;

Appearances 836
Goals 627
Assists 193
Penalties 110


Now this is staggering. I swear you guys simply have no shame.

Lol... Listing only club goals... Barca cheater

Messi

Laliga (only)

Ronaldo

Laliga
SerieA
EPL

Beat that bro

Expert17:
With all the choking, he still got 6 World best.....
The other one is winning Dubai-d or, Rome- d or..

2 seasons in Italy now, he can't win Highest goal scorer

At least he has 6 golden and silver boots from 4 different competition

EPL
Laliga
UNL
FIFA club world cup
UCL
Euros 2016

eni4real:
That includes his goals in Lyon!!
He was a prodigy there !!!

I understand you bro.... Just so you know Suarez assists Messi the same way Benzema did Ronaldo...

eni4real:
Your comment will be valid if Xavi or Iniesta won the World cup Golden ball!!

Even when the highest competition in 2012 was Euros, and Iniesta won euros golden ball??

I laff at you bro

eni4real:
And all is down to Cristiano's selflessness??

Capital NO..

World cup Golden ball is the reason why Modric ruled 2018!!!

Even after winning world cup and euros, Xavi and Iniesta each won the ballondor due to Messi selflessness too na

eni4real:
I said 'Top assister'. I didn't say 'Most assist' in the World cup'. I meant one of the best assister in World cup history!

I think people talk about Benzema and Bale because, it seems they sacrificed themselves for Cristiano such that he should be the point man..
Especially Benzema who is supposed to be a Number 9...
If Bale get a goal scoring opportunity, it is expected of him to score or pass to Ronaldo.. If he fails, then everyone will be like why don't you pass to Cristiano!!

You also have to look at individual abilities of these players.
Neymar and Suarez are more creative than Bale(who rely on shot power) and Benzema (though he is a good dribbler).

Messi shared the spotlight with Neymar and Suarez seamlessly. I think the ability to share the spotlight and make everyone look great is what make people to praise Messi among the trident..

Suarez won the European Golden shoe in the process and finished 4th in the Ballon d'or

Neymar also finished 3rd in the Ballon d'or and also became a joint too scorer in the UCL of 2015!

Bale and Benzema has never gotten to that level throughout the time they played with Cristiano!!!

That is why people say.. Bale and Benzema sacrificed themselves for Cristiano in order to play safe!!
Not merely by the number of assists!!!

Lol...Benzema that is top 4 highest goal scored in UCL...

But modric won ballondor playing with Ronaldo...mention any player that has won ballondor playing with Messi

Astark:
I think it's because Ronaldo keeps changing clubs so as his team mates.

If ozil, Rooney or other players played with Ronaldo in one club, they will have more assits.

You are comparing xavi to benzema? Messi that started football with xavi lol

I'm not comparing Xavi o

It's Suarez vs Benzema

eni4real:
Who has highest assist in the history of football??
Giggs , followed by MESSI!!!

Messi has more assists than Giggs. Infact after Messi is Ronaldo in assists ranking

chiboy1116:
I just don't get that dude bro . He always cooks up bs . Even piers Morgan no go do this kind thing , even though he's a sycophant . This comparison just looks stupid . Which kind stat be this ?

Suarez has assisted Messi more than Benzema has assisted Ronaldo, yet you Barca fans keep castigating Ronaldo that he doesn't allow Benzema reach his potential.... That's the reason

Astark:
You've no argument bro.

Do you know Messi has assited xavi, Neymar and Suarez more than they have assisted him?

Ronaldo isn't like Messi in scoring because he would have scored the goals his midfielders keep creating.

I just don't understand this argument or what you are trying to pass

You guys accused Ronaldo of not letting Benzema and Bale score goals because they assists Ronaldo, but I'm showing y'all that Messi receives more assists from his teammates than Ronaldo e.g Suarez,Neymar etc, yet no one accused him of impeding their development... Why??

chiboy1116:
dude are u this messed up? U always bring up bs when comparing . Which one be who assisted more . Wtf are u saying , I don't even get the essence of this bull crap . Lmfao . These Ronaldo fanboys sef . See utterly stupid comparison

You guys accuse Ronaldo of impeding Benzema because he assists Ronaldo, I'm just trying to show you that Messi also impedes Suarez as well

peterd53:
You’re the one bringing up lame excuses for your mcm. You claim choking and bottling is losing to less superior team right?


Where was ur mcm against Greece in his own home land? He choked
Where was he against Dortmund? He chocked
Where was he against Lazio twice dz season? He choked
Where was he against Atalanta wen it matter most? He choked
Where was he against Lyon?? He choked
Where was he against Switzerland at euro 2008? He choked
Where was he when Lyon knocked out Madrid in the ucl 2010? He choked
Where was he against atm losing 4-0 ? He choked big time ...


I can go on and list many more but I won’t cuz you’re so biased

If I were you I would keep quiet after my mcm played 4 finals and lost all

ddippset:
It takes 2 to make an Assist.

The Passer and The scorer.

The only thing your Assist stats reveal is that Messi is more prolific than Ronaldo..

Now pls give us the stats also for shots on target/chances converted.


I bet you that Ronaldo would have taken like 10,000 shots on target to Messi's 5,000 maybe...

I am sure that Ronaldo has the highest shots on target in history.
We've seen many games where Ronaldo has 10 shots on target without scoring.


So by the time Ronaldo continues to miss Goals how then could they register as Assists?

Looking at the assists stats, you could see that the most are Madrid players....

When Ronaldo was in laliga, who was more prolific, Messi or Ronaldo??

Well that's not the point anyway, so Neymar made more assists to Messi than Bale made to Ronaldo? Even Dani Alves than Marcelo

Now I know why you can't win UCL again

eni4real:
What about Messi being the player with most assists in the last Decade??

What about most assists in the entire La liga history, Copa America history, Argentina history??

Top assister in World cup history??
2nd highest assist in UCL history??

Point of correction, Pele is the player with most assists in world cup history with 10, and Messi with 8.

I understand you... But why do your fans castigate Ronaldo for the same thing Messi is guilty of?

You guy shout Benzema, Bale etc, as if they've assisted Ronaldo up to 100 times

Just imagine neyymar has made more assists go Messi than Bale as to Ronaldo

Lol,,,,

WrestleMania should be shifted

eni4real:
Who has highest assist in the history of football??
Giggs , followed by MESSI!!!

Stop beating around the bush....what can you say about Suarez assists to Messi with Barcelona philosophy of pass the ball to Messi always

eni4real:
Ballon d'or assisted Messi 6 times
But assisted Cristiano 5 times

What can you say about Suarez assists

With the way Barcelona fans keep shouting 'Bale, Bale', one would think he's assisted Ronaldo 100 times , not knowing him and Neymar are on the same assists to a particular player

Now look at benzemiss ... I'm surprised even Suarez had assisted Messi more than he did Ronaldo... Perhaps if Suarez didn't pass to Messi, he would have won ballondor or European best

Even see Marcelo assists is not as much as Dani Alves
