Argentina with farmers like McAllister, de Paul etc nko
You didn't see how Argentines have been playing.

You didn't see how the like of Renato Sanchez, Nani, João Moutinho, William Calvalho , Ronaldo, Maniche, Pepe, etc, used to play for Portugal?

You are talking as if Ronaldo hasn't fought for Portugal enough...

See how Argentines were playing with a never give up attitude

You are talking as if Ronaldo doesn't have over 300 assists by staying in the Box.

Should I show you his heat map this WC?

The only game where Portugal managed to dig deep and score was against Croatia and the winning goal came when your man had left the pitch after scoring awoof penalty.

Ronaldo is a viral disease that greatly impacted the team's progress.

If the coach had chased him out against Spain when they were trailing, they would have won. grin

I remember when you guys used to say Messi played with better players than Ronaldo at Barcelona and in their respective national teams.

After Ronaldo won the Euros with Portugal, it was even worse; some of his fans bragged that he could do it alone with 10 average players behind him, while others believed that he would rule the world if he had a quality support cast.

Fast forward a few years, and all those assumptions have been put to the test. Portugal has the better team, yet Messi has gone ahead to achieve more. Ronaldo sacrificed his footballing abilities for goals because he believed that stats were everything in the modern game. Still, Messi competed with him yet did not have to redefine his game. They'll finish their respective careers with Messi having a superior goal-to-game ratio. It is even worse when you consider assists and other aspects of the game.

Now, I look at Mbappe and wonder how effective he will be without his speed. Kane has already started thinking long-term because he plays more with his head than with physical abilities.
He can't do it without Xavi
He can't do it without Iniesta
He can't do it without Neymar
He can't do it without Di Maria
He can't do it outside Barcelona
He can't do it without penalties
Make France Catch am fess!
Make England catch am fess!

At the ongoing worldcup, Portugal managed to win their only knock-out game when Tapnaldo was bundled out of the pitch.

In 2016 when portugal managed to win the euros, it was with Tapnaldo on the sidelines as an assistant ball boy. grin

Tapnaldo is the one holding Portugal back cheesy

I was here in 2016 when the dwarf retired like a coward after losing the back 2 back Calabar cup to Alexis Sanchez while Ronaldo won his nation their first ever National honour in their entire history


The three peat with Madrid was the icing on the cake, that 3ft imp will never be greater than Ronaldo at this sport no matter how hard he tries


And Yamal will end the fraud on Sunday to show you what it meant for a 40 yr old Ronaldo defeating this Spanish super team to with his nation their 3rd National honour.

Baba na biggest liability o and i think Messi's performance today rubber-stamped that obvious fact.

Tale of 2 captains

When matters rough for both attackers ;

•One remained in the box like a crippled hyena waiting for chances.

•The other one dropped deep, inspired his wards and eventually turned things around.

I come dey shame say i even participated in the debate and comparison earlier on cheesy
Lol. GOAT debate wey don end since. Pendeu wey de go stay inside 18 yard box waiting for others to work for him and give him to tap in. If not his fans will start threatening his teammates

LordAdam16:
no dey speak plenty grammar

messi is dimunitive

ronaldo is 6 foot 2

in crunch time, messi was spamming crosses for someone to head it in
in crunch time, no one was doing the same in portugal for air ronaldo to head it in

that is the difference

all this shalaye is unnecessary




how many corners has ronaldo taken since he turned 30
how many corners has messi taken since he turned 30

that should tell you why one is camped in the box
and why the other is spamming crosses

if you 1 start argument, remember to turn on your brain

-Lord
So McAllister, Enzo Fernandez, Lautaro Martinez and even Licha that all scored from crossings from Messi are all man-moutains abi? They are are 7 fts in height abi. Oga just accept it your man is conpletely finished, he is now drawing the team backwards. The real truth is that Messi is better than him, make una just end the debate its embarrasing now

b lyk una forget why ronaldo fans drag chibuzor like tiger gen after 2016

na because of portugal's run after the 2006 wc
from 2008 to 2014
good 6 years, ronaldo no see break light for NT

in fact na club and country with portugal and rm
dude was unplayable but to see trophy hard
and he was mocked thoroughly by chibuzor fans

e no get wetin chibuzor fans no use mock ronaldo
after 2010 wc and 2012 euros
dude was peak
everyone knew he was a great
but dem no let us hear word
no b 2013, blatter diss ronaldo by calling him a commander?

na why by 2016 wen hope don almost dry for NT
that win was a vindication
it still is
that euros win came out of nowhere




you are talking about sacrificing footballing abilities

where have you seen a 41 yr old winger at the top level
the choices for ronaldo are retire or be a 9
wingers in their 30s na bench warmer for top teams

being a 9 means having to play like haaland
few touches and hope creators find you
otherwise nothing for you

mbappe will follow the same trajectory

look at kane yesterday




na 3peat end ronaldo mockery for club level
na 2016 end ronaldo mockery for NT level
and both came when he moved into the box
feel say na still stepover he dey do, him cabinet for empty

these last two WCs
2022 and 2026
na coach really finish portugal

mourinho (or zizzou) go find way by hook or crook to get to the final and then leave it all to fortune
too bad he declined the coaching job multiple times




lastly, ronaldo slander should never have started

in a different timeline

he would have won the 2004 euros (lost the final 1-0 to greece)
and won the 2006 wc (portugal was the best offensive team)
they outplayed france in the semis and would have won italy in the final

na him poor luck say the two golden portuguese generations were at the dawn and dusk of his illustrious career
heck if they had a decent forward in front of ronaldo, deco, and figo in 2004-2006, they win both trophies
a lautaro martinez in the team literally wins them both trophies

heck, a deco in this 2026 portugal's team gets to the final

na who no know football go dey yell pendu up and down
the GOAT conversation was never supposed to be a debate

and this is ultimately why CR7 is my GOAT
2016 was a proper odyssey
forever my GOAT to brave all the adversity to pull that year
