That's what I hate about Ronaldo fans... They hate the truth. First, it was Messi dat fifa always robs Ronaldo for but now it's no longer Messi.... Its modric, mbappe & others. U people support blindly. Look beyond ronaldo & u will see people better than him. Football is not just about goals alone. Watch a player's game play... & U will love the true players

lol no mind that guy. Fifa Rob Ronaldo even the recent uefa team of the year award, Modric got the highest votes beating Ronaldo and Messi.
Last season, Messi scored highest goals in Europe yet he said he knew he didn't deserve to win last year's balon D'or that's why I respect the guy despite the fact that I am Madrid fan

There's only one GOAT, nwanne. The merciless mesmerizing Messi.

GisthoodBlog:
Chelsea midfielder Eden Hazard has revealed he believes Barcelona Star Lionel Messi is the "Greatest Player Of All Time" despite historic Cristiano Ronaldo rivalry.

Hazard took on Messi twice in the 2017/18 Champions League as Barcelona dumped the Blues out of the competition 4-1 on aggregate.

MySportDab report the magical Messi, who reached the milestone of 400 La Liga goals at the weekend, bagged three of Barca's goals in that last 16 tie.

However, Chelsea star Hazard does not think there is an argument as to who is the best.

'Two G.O.A.T.s you say? No way. There is only one G.O.A.T (The Greatest Of All Time): Him, Lionel Messi!' he told Belgian Outlet HLN.

"Those two games against Barcelona were not my best memories of 2018. I was happy to play against Barcelona and Messi, but I didn't deliver what I expected. I was disillusioned.

"My three sons were there for the home at Stamford Bridge. The eldest is a big Messi fan - all of us are Messi fans, actually. He wanted to see Messi that day, because Messi is a special player," he added.

Don't mind Hazard. He is using the praise to bribe Messi, so that he will say yes to his intended transfer to Bacelona if it sails through.

For you to have made such statement without been a united fan shows you don't have depth knowledge on football related topics

smh small pikin Dey worry u.

Abeg carry your insult to Your mates

An international failure can never be my G.O.A.T

Duru009:
like for Messi

share for Ronaldo

no like or share for you... Go away!!

Oeworldbest1:
All round footballing skill bro. Can Ronaldo play as a midfielder for Juventus. Can he throw accurate 90m pass to Cuadrado like Messi throws to Jordi Alba. With all disrespect, Ronaldo dey try but Messi get extreme dexterity. Ronaldo is athletism like Dembele, Mbappe, Bale etc. They are alike. Can Ronaldo drop deep and control midfield? What Ronaldo has over Messi is height and aerial threat for goalscoring but despite this Messi has a better goal ratio. So you see?

What position did Ronaldo play at Man utd??

Messi scored 91 goals in a calendar year..... while Ronaldo who stayed 7 years in man u did not have the same amount......the fact remains if both player's were still in their prime all these arguements would have ended

Oeworldbest1:
That's in backyard football.
Has he ever scored 22 goals in a game. Ronaldinho did it lol

All my stats are verifiable stats. Can we verify this stats with FIFA.

Like I said I have nothing against Messi as a player but respect but

The term GOAT is subjective.

In what conditions are you naming him the GOAT, if it's based on his wonderful ball control, goals, and all round comprehension of the game, then I give it to him, but other than this,


A GOAT that can help his country win a world cup at the expense of Germany, is that one a GOAT?

I'M not against Messi but reason as without sentiments for once,




Is Messi really the greatest of all time?

I agree he could be named the greatest of the 21st century but of all time nada


Where do you put the likes of

Eusebio
Cruyff
Beckenbauer
Bobby Charlton

These guys single handedly won world cups for their nation's yet they're all in Pele's shadow

I rest my argument

Cheers

They are both the best but i prefer messi most. love u leo

obonujoker:
Do you know what it means to have 216 career assists?? Why didn't those playmakers etc, surpass him, at least they started playing at almost the same time....

I don't think Iniesta has up to half of Ronaldo's assists buh who wud rate Ronaldo over Iniesta in terms of passes and assists....

obonujoker:
So you expect Rinaldo to play the way Messi plays ba...?? In what areas of play is Messi better than Ronaldo

Oga... Are u okay.... Dribbling, passing, playmaking.... Etc...
D question shud b d other way round... In what areas is Ronaldo better than messi?

saucemanny:
messi is like someone working under his fathers company who never taste failure n challenges as much compare to someone who worked in ajegunle from there get employed in lekki then move to banana island.to me rc7 have worked in different land with different club shine like sun.so your goat should try it by then ii shall concur if he shine all through.

What do u mean by failure and challenges...??
Does messi play against his Barcelona teammates??
Does he play against the same opponents yearly in the champions League??
Does he win the Champions League every year...??
Y then do u say e doesn't face failure and challenges...??
-Y'all make me laugh...
First y'all said messi is nothing without xavi and iniesta... They've both left and messi is still winning the European golden boot and going 4 his 6th
-messi is nothing without Neymar, the guy has gone and yet messi still blossoms....
Na wa 4 una o
Zlatan that has proven himself in more leagues than Ronaldo, will u say e is better than Ronaldo??.... Just appreciate Messi... Stop hating

Ronaldo fans no dey hear

Single handedly won world cup? I laugh. Even the great footballers u mentioned regard him in high esteem and know he is comparable. Which player probably in football history have been under the most intense pressure to win world cup? MESSI. The world just wanted him to win world cup to crown him GOAT. All eyes on him. 3 cup finals in 3successive yrs shows that GOD of soccer is with him and its mystery

lilmax:
football is entertainment

messi makes it entertaining

the other one on the other hand, makes it war, quarrel, insecurity

messi is born to be the best
the other is born to fight for it till he dies

and he knows messi is the best, no matter what he wins his mind still tell him that, that's the painful thing about cramming and understanding

Correct u. Messi is like PDP and Ronaldo na APC.

RipMorosini:
I'll have Messi on you

Keep it up. Pirlo can shine our shoe. MESSI all the way

The different btw messi and other great players is that, while others go public to say they are greatest, people say it for messi that he is greatest, (sign of inferiority complex/console oneself)


Am neither a fan of Barcelona nor messi but we should put sentiment and politics apart and say the truth, all those noise that he had never won world cup & likes, it's never the yardstick to proof greatest, thank God it comes out from a player who is unique and versatile in football world,

Torres, Nuer, Pique and likes won both, World cup and Champion league among other titles, Did that make them GOAT? Capital no.

hmm ur brain is heavenly I like this good of u bro..chop knuckle

I agree with other things u said but humility and meekness should not be confused for inferiority complex. Thats his nature. The mark zuckerbergs,bill gates,secret movers and shakers of this world, are there exhibiting inferiority complex? What about the underground kings,warlords and billionaires u hear and respect but dont see? In holy books, the reward of humility have more far reaching effect than pride or too much talk. Good market naturally sell itself. Talk less and do more is powerful

By saying singlehandedly, I meant these guys stood out in their respective teams. And all of them won golden boots in the tourneys their respective teams won.

The ultimate price in world football is the world cup. The ultimate PRICE in European club football is the uefa champions league.

It's going to be off point to say that because an individual has dominated the uefa champions league and the Spanish La Liga, he should be rated as the greatest of all time.


The fact is that he hasn't even broken all of Pele's records. Though his records are outstanding,

My disagreement is the AT part of the GOAT. Calling him greatest of all time means no one in any footballing era can be compared.


I know that you are a die hard Messi fan as I'm a Ronaldo fan but anytime the Messi-Ronaldo debate comes up, I stay away because I know that in most areas of football, Messi beats Ronaldo hands down, I don't argue blindly like a die hard fan

But results in football are incontrovertible. Pele has 3 world cup trophies, Messi has none

So how is he the greatest of all time ?

With Champions League trophies or La Liga trophies?

When he wins one world cup trophy, we can consider him for the GOAT title.

I rest my argument here finally

joyfullyjoyous:
Jesus Christ of Nazareth is the greatest of all time.

what football club did he play for?

Carry ya fanatical self away from here jor.

I think police should start arresting those that compare Ronaldo with Messi.Ronaldo is just like a child and Messi is like ancestor to that child and the only thing that child inherited from his ancestor is only goal scoring...MESSI na miracle working player always d best
