Ok
Let's check it from this angle
2008 Man U vs Chelsea
2019 Liverpool vs Tottenham
2021 Chelsea vs Man City

Apart from Real Madrid vs AM
Real Madrid vs Valencia 2000

Mind you Man U and Chelsea would have repeated 2008 if not of stupid referee

How bout the 6 or 7 seasons we had three English clubs in the semis?!
The EPL is on another level bruh

grin grin.. e no go pass una usual assist .... the guyman na failure.... scoring over 100 goals in 3 yrs for Juve that is economical with goals shows u how great he is... as we all know their playing style don't allow them pour in goals ... or hv u ever heard that juve scored 5 goals ?? For goals sef no de pass once a season... they are no different from Atletico... he still was the first juve player to ever score 30 goals.. the fastest player to hv reached 50 goals , ahead of players that were in their peak ( De Lima, Shevchenko,Del piero , Trezeguet, Inzaghi, Zlatan , Vieri , crespo) an he did it at 34... abeg show respect
Ronaldo who took Juventus to number 4 on the table after years of winning the title back to back? Ronaldo who was outscored by Ciro Immobile who was playing for an average team (Lazio) ? And they actually score a lot of goals in serie A contrary to your claim. i have not even talked about assists yet. I'm talking about the so called goals. Considering when Messi and Ronaldo officially started their football careers, Messi is still a better goal scorer than Ronaldo. You guys don't even watch PSG games.

You guys are jokes
you obviously don't watch PSG games, you just view live scores and start calling out Messi when you discovered he didn't score. I hope you are watching Messi this season.

Salah's position is right wing in a forward role. Ronaldo's position then was right wing in a midfield role
Those two are not the same.

Over rated Premier league. See shaky shaky Barcelona tearing Man City apart yesterday night. You may call it friendly, but friendlies reveal a lot of loopholes in a team.

Man United beat Liverpool during Friendlies and still beat them in the first meeting of this season.

Arsenal beat Chelsea during the friendlies and we tend to overlook that, look at how ruthless Arsenal is right now and will still beat Chelsea in a competitive game with this Chelsea current form.

If Premier League is not Over rated, now how can you explain this..
Premier league teams 14 UCL
Real Madrid alone 14 UCL

Since the last 10 yrs Premier league teams are yet to beat a Spanish team in any European finals

Nonsense premier league with their ojoro and hype
Going by your analysis......
How many UCL trophies do all the teams in Bundesliga have?
But last time I checked,Bayern VS Barcelona ended 8 - 2 and this match had only one leg because of Corvid 19.
Before then the last UCL match btw this two teams ended a whopping 7 - 0 on aggregate with Barcelona receiving 4 - 0 and 3 - 0 respectively.
Does that mean La Liga is trash where Bundesliga is?

But your type will compare Ronaldo and Messi that are playing different roles.

Ronald can't even drop deep and help his teammates. Look at how Neymar's game has improved, he has discovered life is not just about self-glories. Hold up play or drop deep and assist the team. He go sha see bench tire.

A certain Barca walloped a German team Bayern Leverkusen 10-2 in the UCL.
Also Bayern have walloped Arsenal one of EPL's finest teams 10:2 on aggregate. Does that mean Bundesliga is greater than EPL

You don't judge a league by a single match performance. Barcelona have also beaten Bayern 5:0 ..look at over all performance...which league have more legends, in the game, more UCL, more Ballon D'ors etc

That's what they are. Drogba and Aguero ? cheesy. if it's not hate, what would make one reason like that? Ex players give their opinion about their fave, they are happy with it, same ex players choose CR7, then they begin to wail... The football CR7 played in the EPL during his first stint, would never be forgotten. Never !!
After using goals to call him the greatest, you feel bad that Drogba and Aguero matches or probably have better stats in premier league.

Hypocrite!

Hypocrite ? Did I mention goals ? What you fail to understand is that these players you try to downgrade CR7 to, are not even in the conversations of the GOAT debate in the first place, so what does that tell you ? Secondly Owen putting CR7 there, did he tell you it was only about goals ? CR7 played complete football.. Asin complete football, in his first stint at United,. So you coming here to rubbish his opinion and choices obviously shows you are just hating and nothing else.. I am not an Arsenal fan , but if I see a list that doesn't include Henry amongst EPL greats, then not just me , but almost everyone who's been watching the premier League will definitely know it is a biased list. So nigga, free your mind of hate and stop yaning Hypocrite like it's one of the recent word you just learnt .

I didn’t downgrade Ronaldo to them. We talking about the premier league and statistically, they have a case. Had to use their premier league goals cos you guys are known for using Ronaldo’s superior goals to rank him with the best. Why can’t we do same in this case?
Secondly Owen putting CR7 there, did he tell you it was only about goals ? CR7 played complete football.. Asin complete football, in his first stint at United,. So you coming here to rubbish his opinion and choices obviously shows you are just hating and nothing else.
Does he have to make it about goals? We see and judge through your lenses….. Ronaldo fans have limited everything to goals but because it doesn’t Favour him in this case, you are trying to be half smart.
I am not an Arsenal fan , but if I see a list that doesn't include Henry amongst EPL greats, then not just me , but almost everyone who's been watching the premier League will definitely know it is a biased list. So nigga, free your mind of hate and stop yaning Hypocrite like it's one of the recent word you just learnt .
it’s not even possible to draw a list of EPL greats without Henry. As a matter of fact, he is regarded as the best ever in EPL history by many but Ronaldo’s inclusion in Owen’s list can be disputed because some players in his position can claim to have better stats like Salah & Aguero.

Ronaldo fans are known hypocrites and it’s not bad to use same approach you guys would have used if reverse was the case.

We talking about the premier League, they are celebrating 30 years of its existence .. ex and current players, journalists and a host of others are being asked about their favourite moments, players, teams , etc the headline says , Owen picks CR7, Henry and others for his premier League greatest team, he has used different statistics and reasons for having CR7 and other players, on his team, that's his opinion, but you being among haters of CR7 , decided to make a case for Aguero and Drogba.. all because ? We both know that deep you in your heart, you are not happy CR7 was there.. the team is made up of 11 players; you didn't make a case for Pete Cech, or Ryan Giggs, or they don't deserve to be among ? Through my lenses ? Every football fan, comes to watch every match hoping for their team to win, and what guarantees victory ? Goals.. because it's the most fundamental.. What is your aim? How to shove it down our throat, to accept Messi as the greatest, and I have told you it will not happen, cos the argument will be endless. If CR7 fans hold on to goals, they have every right to do so, you know why? It's the bane of the game called football. Or should we talk about how quick y'all are always the first to talk about assist and act like CR7 has got just 7 assists since he started playing football... Ohw I forgot , there's a new one reigning by you guys "pre assist". ... CR7's inclusion disputed ? By who ? It would only be by haters like yourself.. The other time, Lampard switched sides, and y'all were angry and ranting on here , it's the same thing y'all doing here, angry over another man's choice ! Keep hating nigga !

And they all started their career at the same time abi or they are all of the same age. You can even say Pele or Maradona are not good because they retire before Ronaldo.
Many didnt make the cut but he did.
There were other good players.

The gibberish you dropped is not my concern neither is Owen’s opinion is a worry for me. As a matter of fact, I don’t give a fuc.

My problem is how you guys react whenever we apply the same yardstick or standard you guys have been using to judge others on Ronaldo.

Hatred? No difference between you and Nigeria politicians because when most of them are caught doing what they accused their predecessor(s) of, they begin accused the opposing party of hatred.

Because goals guarantees victory, only the goal scorer should be applauded?? Because that what you guys have limited football to….. that’s why most people do not appreciate Benzema until he started scoring. Zidane didn’t score many goals but he’s well appreciated for his creativity and general game play.

Wetin concern me if you accept Messi as the greatest or not? Oga, go sleep you no get talk aswear.
