Messi cannot even be compared to the great Zidane or Ronaldo DE Lima
His stupid fans need to get this into their idiotic skulls
He remains a one dimensional player with great natural gift and also an uninspiring coward
Cowards are never the greatest

C Ronaldo tho not so naturally gifted has proven himself to be very inspirational
The ability to inspire especially when the chips are down is what makes you Great
not talent

If it was by talent, Messi is nowhere close to many of the supreme talents of the 90's

That aside, looking at it technically
How can you be the greatest when you're not the best in one thing
You are not the best ever scorer, not the best ever dribbler, not the most skillful, not the most all around (C Ronaldo even edges him here), not the fastest, not the most technically gifted, not the best at passing, set piece, heading, acrobatics, deftness, guile, vision, strength, ability to entertain etc
Not even one aspect of the game you are the best or even CLOSE to the best
And you call yourself greatest?@'!??

Not his fault tho
He has very stupid fans

Olympics he won, under 20 world cup he won with the Argentina Jersey... he played 3 finals with the senior Argentine team....
he has played under 5 different coaches with different approach to soccer yet he won trophies for them, he is now the captain after three successive captains and we all know he will still win again...
ballack never won any trophy with Germany but u can't say he is not a good player...Ronaldo delima did not win champions league but I can bet u if u have an option to choose between a Christian Ronaldo and a delima Ronaldo ....most will go for the later.

Injury plagued career prevented Ronaldo de Lima from doing much club wise

Still De Lima shiits on both Messi and C Ronaldo
They are not in his league

it's palpable Ur a Ronaldo fanboy , Ronaldo didn't win the euro , Portugal won the euro . Playing in different leagues doesn't make one the Greatest , Pele played in Santos till his legs got weary , then he moved to cosmos , Messi isn't the first one team player , honestly I blame the media for this shit , Ronaldo is a great player ,a hard working player and I respect him for that . But there shouldn't even be any comparison between Ronaldo and Messi,one should be able to tell the difference between black and white , it's obvious Messi is far better overall , Ronaldo is just a scorer. And I have never seen where a player or coach aside from those that played with Ronaldo chose Christiano over Messi . Na only man utd fans de kill there sef , even Madrid fans no believe say Ronaldo na their greatest player , some of em would take Raul and Di Stefano over him , this guys won dem many trophies honestly . Just saying . As for me sha I believe messi is obviously better unless Ur blinded by sentiments .
You see that will always be the problem. Different players have different attributes. But Ronaldo is a better all-round player...

Yes backenbauer....Even though i dnt know him, i obviously saw him in the link i shared buh chose to ignore him....Maldini isnt on the list,dat doesnt mean he isnt regarded by many as the greatest....
U are still bringing up the internional trophy as yardstick for u being the Goat by mentioning backenbauer's world cup trophies; i know it's one of them but remember...
Roberto Baggio never won an int. Trophy
George best never won one
Johan cruyff neither.....
ETC
Buh they are considered GOATS
First, brainless fanboys claimed it was worldcup dat cements ur name buh after seeing that Ronaldo would likely end his careear without one, dey shifted to any int. Trophy...tsk

Messi hasn't cemented his name as a goat cos e hasn't won for argentina??....wrong
Do u think someone is considered Goat by the opinion of one person??....not at all
Just as some people Praise Pele as the GOAT,so does others not acknowledge him as dat cos they claim he played in any era wer they feel football was easier.....you can't take away peoples opinion
You can't be accepted generally world wide as the GOAT..... dats y der are many goats

Alot of footballers,managers, pundits, media consider Messi the greatest....it clearly shown in the link i shared....More experts than even Ronaldo who has won the Euro trophy.....


first of all Argentina is not one person....


do you know how it feels having that kind of status and not being loved by your own people....



his statue was destroyed....

I'm not saying he should win the world cup...


but atleast he should be able to give them something

he's got the materials....



it's like having a super powers and can't save your own people... (yeah they call him the magician .... and he's only done great with Barcelona )


do you know when last Argentina won a trophy and they tend to have one of the greatest players in history...

those people are hungry for victory even if its a continental one...




at the end of the day believe me he will only be remembered as a Barcelona great....




Messi is an artistic footballer.... he plays the game with great intelligence ....


for sure people will tend to love his game more....

but that doesn't make cr7 less great...


he's done what other players cant even think of....

his achievements speaks for him....


that's just the difference....




and then again Messi is miles ahead of the likes of baggio, best etc...

so Messi is playing for levante....


some people just don't have sense....

can sassuolo afford Ronaldos wages or release clause....


OK since you don't have sense let me enlighten you a bit....




what Ronaldo meant by new challenge or leaving comfort zone doesn't mean Messi should join stoke of EPL...



he's just practically saying he should play with some new set of players, experience football in another dimension with new sets of opponents...


LA Liga is more of all attacking football,.... can you say the same about EPL and seria A....


proving himself in another league with different approach to the game will further cement his claim as one of the GOATS....


damn the dudes got 32 Barcelona senior career trophies and nothing more not even one with his nation...



that's one hell of a flaw if you ask me.....


at the end of their careers only those who watched will be able to differentiate distinctively....


all these things matters

Don't forget Ronaldo had to adapt with time. In manchester united he controlled the game and was very incisive in attack. But his number of assists is also not bad...

You have no idea what u speak of

Pele is the most complete attacking player ever, and this is no even up for dispute
No attacking player is close to being as complete as Pele
He wins this aspect with a wide margin

Messi is not even in top 5 in any aspect of the game
So Pls stop the comparison

Pundits? '?? who gives a shiit about them
We have eyes and we watched football

I don't do this Messi vs C Ronaldo comparison you novice fans do
They pale in comparison to those greats and this clear to any fan who has followed the game for decades
There era of reign is worst of any era in terms of quality players
The both would not even seria A of the 90's

You fans of modern football are not helping the game with this your mediocrity praise
This is why players can't improve and there are true world class players anymore
You're all killing the game due to your noviceness

Messi is talented. Ronaldo is also talented.Messi has about 25 majors(minus Spanish super cup).Ronaldo has over 20(minus all supercups).Messi has many goals(including tapins,penalties, short-distance goals),Ronaldo has the same record. Messi has played less games,Ronaldo was used for different game plans by his managers when he started at S/Lisbon/Man Utd hence the over 800 games played.Messi has over 200 assists, Ronaldo also has over 200 assists,Messi is a great passer,Ronaldo is also known for his great passing, Messi is one of the greatest dribblers,Ronaldo is one of the greatest headers,Messi has 5 FiFa/Ballon d'or awards(the highest honor) Same as Ronaldo,But Messi has shown he could be better at heading if he were taller,while Ronaldo has shown he could be better at dribbling if he were shorter.And Messi has many freekick specials, You can visit YouTube for that of Ronaldo as well.........Now,can someone tell me either of them is better despite the absence of significant reasons to prove it ?

Pls name ur top 4

I don't believe in greatest ever whatever
I only believe in greatest of an era

Now if I want to say top 4 greatest footballers I put it this way
1st and 2nd slot are occupied by 2 players each making it 4 players

1st slot is for Maradona and Pele
This 2 attained a godlike status other players haven't attained
Even fellow players where in awe just being around them
Matter of fact fellow players even worshiped them
Their aura was mesmerizing
With them in your team you believe would (not can) win any team
It was like "God" is on your side
No other set of players can inspire by just presence alone like this 2
Greatness goes beyond just talent and skill

2nd slot is for Ronaldo 9 and Zidane
Now this 2 IMHO are superior to the 1st slot players in terms of talent and skill, especially Ronaldo 9, Guy was 4kn bloody at his best
A hot R9 is the baddest player ever!
Most of the most gifted footballers with pure talent and raw skill somehow didn't attain greatness due to 1 thing or the other but these 2 did
Zidane is that player that rises to the occasion when you need him the most
At that crucial big stage he'll not disappoint you
Not to talk of Zidane's elegance and memorizing touches that are far more interesting to watch than anything C Ronaldo or Messi have ever done on the pitch
This is someone people spend their life saving just to come watch "touch " (not score, dribble or any other thing) the ball
Day he retired was like a burial for some people

These 4 are at top cause not only do they have the ability they did prove themselves at the highest and most crucial stage

3rd slot should have Ronaldinho, Berkembeur, etc
Messi could be here but he has yet to prove himself at the highest most crucial stage when all hope on him, not inspiring enough
Waiting for team mates to bring you into game rather than the other way round

horlah005:
Pele said and I quote

“I would still stay with Messi. Scoring is important, no doubt,

but if you do not have anyone to prepare, then the ball is not enough. For my team I prefer Messi.”


Pele added on the differences between Messi and Ronaldo:

"Messi's been the most stable in the last 10 years.

"As for Cristiano Ronaldo, he's a great goalscorer.

"Ronaldo's been able to score goals, while you see Messi

creating goals and directing the play, as well as scoring.

"Ronaldo's a great goalscorer but in terms of the complete

player, there's no doubt that Messi is the best."

Sorry is it the same Pele that said Messi is a one skilled player and should not be compared to him or the same Pele that said he would prefer Ronaldo in his team or the same Pele that said Maradonna is the better Argentinian between him and Messi? Which Pele please be specific grin

Timil:
We all know Ronaldo left Madrid not because he wanted a new challenge but he left because he wanted an increased paycheck.

Last time he wanted the challenge was when he left my team @ManUtd ever since he left united Ronaldo has grown egotistic and more concerned about scoring tap ins and making more cash.

Messi, Ronaldo fans boys should stop fighting over two individuals who don't feed you, clothe you or pay your bills.

I'm an Arjen Robben and Ronaldinho fan boy but I don't make a fuss of it because they have nothing to offer me, they don't pay the bills so why fight over men who don't even know you.
You and who all know please get ur facts right he earns less in Juventus collectively compared to Madrid soooo where are u coming from?
