Before you call yourself the greatest ever player, first you need to become the greatest south American player ever, and to do this, you must be greater than Pele, Maradona, and Delima grin

Already Ronaldo is the greatest European player ever

The beauty of best players is in their dynamism, Like Zidane, Ronaldo De Lima, Figo e.t.c not stock in one room and making noise.

The only player to have won all major individual and team honours in the two biggest leagues in the world, despite the structure and cultural differences

League Title
League Cup
Domestic Cup
UCL
Club World Cup
League Best Player
League Top Scorer
European Top Scorer
European Best Player
World Best, e.t.c.

Such consistency.

U guys wanna front Ronaldo's achievements cos dat of Messi graced d front page yesterday.

All Penaldos achievements i see here re all abt goals. No awards frm tournaments, no playmaking, etc.

After all said nd done.Messi still has more goals dan him despite playing fewer games compared to Penaldo.

In conclusion, Messi has more goals despite being a play maker, nd not a striker like our penaldo. Messi has more outside d 18yrd goals compared to Penaldo, has more free kick goals to Penaldo. Nd its jux a matter of time b4 Messi breaks Penaldos champoins league goals wit fewer games...U can slightly compare Penaldo in his Man u days nd early madrid days to Messi, buh its an insult to compare d present Penaldo to Messi. Haba..!!. Ronaldo dat can't even dribble a single player again on d pitch, all he does is do some step overs nd still pass d ball to his mates. Lol.

Quote me nd i won't reply.
Your opinion is meaningless grin grin grin

mumu, it's no competition.
both players r special in their own way.
everyone with their iconic moments
everyone with one thing the other doesn't have

so therefore; from common sense, it is no crime to talk about the profiles of the two greatest players.

na ode like u dey give urself hypertension nd headache over who better pass.. The sensible ones like us are just enjoying them both while it lasts.

8. First international trophy with Portugal

By looking at the way Portugal arrived at the tournament, this was not exactly the culmination that had been foreseen. Yet they put behind the ignominy of early exits in a major tournament by coming out with flying colours in Euro 2016. The best ever player to don the deep red colours of Portugal, Cristiano Ronaldo made sure that he contributed enough to drag his team over the line.

He may not have had the best of starts, but stepped up his game as the tournament progressed. He netted twice in the 3-3 draw against Hungary, assisted a late winner deep into extra time in the last-16 win against Croatia. He also scored in the penalty shootout victory against Poland in the quarter-final, and his towering header, ensured that Portugal got past Wales in the semi-finals. However, the man of the big occasions had his final cut short by an awful injury. Yet, it didn't stop him from influencing the game from the sidelines. In extraordinary scenes in extra-time, Ronaldo functioned as an auxiliary manager, proving that he isn't afraid to take on any role, no matter how big. Not only was he organising and motivating them, he even gave tactical instructions, just like any manager would do. And in the end, all the honours was theirs for the taking.

Ronaldo may have experienced a wide range of emotions throughout his illustrious career and in Paris, he experienced all of it that one night. It will forever remain as one of the most iconic moments of Ronaldo's career.

Messi should try achieve this too

wow...nice but my pick of the bunch are
1.that crazy match against zlatan sweden to qualify for
worldcup- cr7 proved to the world that he is up above the rest with such a magnificent display that evening of football
madness...he scored a beautiful hatrick against zlatan's brace right there in sweden and won the match for Portugal and took them to world cup..
fun fact- the next day, fifa and uefa extended
the date of voting for ballon d or n that was wen i knew ribery wont win it because cr7 was d trending guy, cr7 letter won the ballon d or against the on form
ribery forgetting that bayern won 3 trophies dt year including d almighty u.c.l, beating Dortmund dt dump cr7 madrid...
2..was that Portugal winning that uefa trophy in france, cr7
was down and seriously injured, i remembered how he cried when they told him he cant continue and was stretched out bt he
still came back from the locker room to ginger his team, was
seen limping, backing instructions to his guys to build thier
confidence level before dt screamer from dt eder guy i think
and the rest was history, really luved him 4 wat he did even if
it was unprofessional..
summary...seeing Lionel messi list and cr7 list i think i enjoyed messi list because his own is more detailed, and iconic mayb because his records involved records against d big guns than cr7 list, for example messi 4 goal haul was against arsenal in ucl and his 500 goal was against d same ronaldo's
madrid in a big ex-classico fixture n everything abt dt winning goal was superb bt cr7 5 goal haul was against espanyol in la liga and his madrid highest goal record was against levante in la liga bt its nice seeing his ucl goal record is against bayern and pls the cr7 fans am not taking anything from the fact dt cr7 is the best goal poacher ever because consistency and the numbers he had done isnt easy, just see dose crazy numbers he did in madrid and that crazy goal against juve, dt insane long range against porto and not forgetting dt individual hattrick performance in u.c.l against athletico some mins after tweeting dt he would do it....cr7 is the best goal machine ever bt messi is the best player ever seen and the main G.O.A T...(MY OPINION)...*drops mic and sits down with chilled beer waiting 4 incoming quotes n mentions**

Why are you saying wot you don’t no, were will you put Henry that won it back to back in year 2002-2003 and 2003-2004
Jokerman:
Some more

1. First and only EPL player to win the PFA, ballondor and FIFA best player in the same year

2. First and only player to win the PFA player back to back

3. Scoring 2 goals and assisting 4 goals in Madrid's 8-1 win over Almeria in 2011

4. Recording the highest number of dribbles in a match with 20 successful dribbles against Benfica in a 2006 UCL match

5. Ronaldo world cup performance against Spain where he scored a hattrick and a freekick making him the highest free kicks taker amongst current players.

Many more.


However that Match against Altetico for Juventus was something extraordinary... The whole stadium stood up to applaud him...
