The argument is about superiority not relevance. Both of them are massively relevant. That's an objective view, which even their haters cannot debate.
Regarding superiority, it's purely subjective. While I prefer Messi, I personally admit that Ronaldo has been better, perhaps luckier, in recent times.
Messi is a fantastic player we can't take that away from him. But when it comes to Ronaldo forget it. He's a monster. He deserves everything football is giving him. Even at the World cup we all saw it

I've watched all Real Madrid's opening matches. Thus far, they play better as a TEAM. Bale and Benzema are firing. No more crossing/passing to 'someone' who thrives on scoring tap-ins and hogging all the glory to himself. When you're total shi.t at dictating the tempo of a match or creating dangerous chances, you take more shots hoping to be lucky with them, but still end up having poor conversion rate in the end. The La Liga has only become boring to plastic Madrid and Man. U. fans who are just fanboys of the Portuguese. The tap-in legend is now in the shadow of Mandzukic in Juventus. Real Madrid and their entire squad made him look decent.

Ronaldo didnt do shit, messi still dominated the laliga, copa del rey, and elclassico, having won it more times and scored more goals and created the greatest assists ever. Check your stats. Football is not about migration
That is the problem with Barcelona fans. You will never admit that Ronaldo made the league more competitive. Enjoy your Boring La liga. Serie A is the new bae

EPL is more competitive than La liga but notwithstanding EPL felt the lost. Ronaldo made La Liga more Interesting. How many still go to watch madrid games? Many people don't watch the league. They watch Ronaldo. He is a brand that's just it....
What sort of ignorant nonsense is this?

You talk as though Madrid were Kano Pillars before they bought Ronaldo

That is to show you the respect he has for Ronaldo. This is how it should be.

Messi knows that Ronaldo is an excellent player and vice versa. It's just our Nigerian so-called football fans and football fanatics that are killing and insulting themselves over Messi and Ronaldo's matter.
Not only in Nigeria bro. I respect u sir.

He'd only 'come back stronger' if his new team mates would agree to sacrifice their careers just to make him look good, like his ex-team mates did. But obviously, no one gives two fvcks about that, definitely not Mandzukic, Pjanic, Dybala... NO ONE! Juventus has always been a TEAM, one egotistic glory-hunter can't change the dynamics. And please, you can't tell me what to, or what not to do here. How're you?

Imagine!!!! He said Juventus are favorites to win CL. He no even say Liverpool.
By the way, I think Klopp should change Liverpool's formation to 4-3-1-2 by introducing Shaqiri to the first eleven. That guy na fire. I am tipping him to overshadow Salah
Typical beer parlour fan

Shaqiri in the starting line up and will over shadow salah ? What are you smoking? Average shaqiri?

Guy na wa for you o

H Ronaldo is so good he left Madrid but wasn't replaced... That goes a long way to show how ineffective he was to the team.

Barcelona Star Leo Messi believes Cristiano Ronaldo's exit from the club, weakens Real Madrid's chances in this year's Champions League.

Ronaldo ended in nine years spell at the Bernabeu this summer securing a move to Juventus for £105m.

The Portuguese had helped Real Madrid to a third consecutive Champions League trophy before securing his exit.

The 33-year-old scored 15 goals in the UCL last season as Real Madrid defeated Liverpool 3-1 in the final in Kiev.

And Argentine ace Messi admitted his shock over Ronaldo’s move when discussing his transfer publicly for the first time.

"Real Madrid are one of the best teams in the world and they have a great squad,” Messi said to Spanish radio station Catalunya Radio.

“[But] It's evident that the absence of Ronaldo makes them less good and makes Juventus clear favourites to win the Champions League.

"It surprised me. I didn't imagine him leaving Madrid or joining Juventus.

“There were a lot of teams that wanted him. It surprised me, but he has gone to a very good team.”

And Messi has also made it clear success in Europe in Barcelona’s goal for the season.

Messi added: “It's time [Barcelona won the Champions League]. We have been knocked out in the quarter-finals in the last three seasons


“Last season's result in Rome hurt especially, but we have a spectacular squad and we can fight for it."

Barcelona have started the new season well and currently sit top of La Liga after thrashing Huesca 8-2 over the weekend.

Messi's brace made him joint top-scorer with Real Madrid's Karim Benzema on four goals.

After the two-weeks international break, Barcelona face Real Sociedad on Saturday 15th September.

I hope u are not expecting me to respond to the 'how're you?'.... If CR7 already have 23 shots ( although I don't know how many are on target).... Then, it clear that he have a big chance of scoring alot this season...

Check the Stats they don't lie. Ronaldo made La Liga what it is today. Messi is still in La Liga but when Ronaldo left they felt the impact. El clasico is not going to get massive views anymore without Ronaldo. The league has gotten Boring without Ronaldo. It has no taste anymore. 450goals in 438 games. Respect the Legend for once

Yea that's the End of discussion. But Barca fans don't wanna admit the relevance of Ronaldo to La liga. They claim Messi is always the superior.
Messi has won the top scorer on for the last two seasons, just few days ago he marked 151 assists. Highest ever in la liga. How do you compare him with ronaldo in la liga? Bros Messi is la liga, la liga is Messi

Thank you for your honest observations......I secretly wished Ronaldo left madrid ,and he did.At the pre-season games ,after watching our young boys toy with ,Man u,Juve,Milan and Roma,i knew a era of galacticos are emerging.....it's so beautiful to watch the whole team play for each other and not everyone trying to make Ronaldo look good.

Their last game against Leganes was so beautiful to watch ,even iscos 20 minutes was better than a 90 minutes ,is it Asensio,Benzema,Bale,Carvajal ,Ramos or even Vinicius in the castilla ,the squad is on fire.......and Mariano is back,you can imagine what he,ll do with the support of that crazy midfield and mad wing backs ..#halamadrid
