OfficialJayy:Mr Pundit, Explain to me how Modric won the golden ball over Griezmann who had more goals in the knockouts of 2018 world cup ??.....u think ts always about goals abi....Ronaldo fans ehn...I weak.....or will u tell me now that Modric didnt deserve to b the player of the tournament...... it's ur type that say that they robbed Ronaldo of the balon d'Or by giving it to Modric.... "copa 2015? that was a mere consolation prize.. Messi is the star player of copa america, they will always do anything to make him happy, and him winning the prize simply despite missing a penalty and not winning the competition goes a long way to validate my point.." So, Ronaldo isnt a star player in Euro abi.... he's a Lingard there??... Why didn't they console him by giving him player of the tournament wen Portugal won Euro??....u think u can just come and reap wer u didn't sow... Player of the tournament awards are giving to the stand out players of the tournament, not just top scorers.....if not Kane wud av won the 2018 WC golden ball |

OfficialJayy: Oga, ur post just reeks of Jealousy...how can u claim that Messi needs Xavi, Iniesta and Neymar to perform....First offs, a single player can't play a football match.... every player needs a team mate... What makes a great player is d ability to stand out in the midst of good players.... I can't blame Messi if he hasn't won a UCL since they left...winning the trophy requires a balanced team...Everyone knew Barcelona was seriously lacking and not playing well last year but still, Messi's master class took them to the semifinals and he won the balon d'Or.... That's wat makes a great player.. ....And if u tell me that Ronaldo won the UCLs for Madrid singlehandedly, then u're a joker.... My point is Messi has proven that he is a great player with or without Messi and Iniesta.... He's won 2 golden boots without them and a balon d'Or without them....can u say the same for Ronaldo since he left Madrid?? |

obonujoker: Bro, tbh, if its between Messi and Ronaldo. Messi would take it. Messi is a creator and a scorer. I'm talking on personal level, not team achievement now. |

LukasPodolski: Nahh bro, you have beef with Ronaldo. |

Techiekingee: Modric's performance was consistent throughout the 2018 WC unlike messi, bros sentiments aside, Messi was a passenger during the knockout stages of the 2014 WC... everyone knew messi did not deserve that award, even maradona criticized the decision afterwards.. that award was a mere consolation, same as in 2015.. Ronaldo won the euros, so there was no reason to give him a consolation prize |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by OfficialJayy: 1:23pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
Bomboiy: Carry along player that has more goals and assists for his country than all the members of the current portugese teams combined... Bros, calm down.. |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by OfficialJayy: 1:35pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
Techiekingee: Pls, learn to observe before jumping into my mention the initial poster said messi can destroy teams and win matches without the help of his team mates, so I wanna know why he hasnt been doing that to win the UCL in recent seasons there's no way madrid would have won those 4 UCL if not because of cr7 would singlehandedly destroyed the likes of bayern, juve, wolfsburg, athletico, psg during the knockout stages.. |

Fastestmanalive: Ronaldo has played more games than Messi naa. Which kind comparison be this? Imagine having played hundreds of games than Messi |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by tfash96(m): 1:56pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
LukasPodolski:This is quite embarrassing for Ronaldo if it's really true .. Should we now leave Messi's heat map alone and be using Rigui Puig's to compare with Ronaldo's own |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by tfash96(m): 2:01pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
OfficialJayy:Guy I hope u don't argue football outside or else you will just be beaten to death with the way you argue.. He needs Neymar n Xavi and Iniesta to shine my foot.. It's after they all left he won the 6th ballon d'or under Unserious Valverde for that matter and laureus award the 1st time it would come to football world . You should be telling that to your pepper soup goat that grabbed Dubai d'or since there's no Marcelo and co to baby feed him |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by tfash96(m): 2:05pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
OfficialJayy:Tell us what exactly to forget about that.. He has at least 4-5 individual international awards something your Ronaldo can't write anything about.. He's the highest goal scorer for Argentina and the highest assist provider.. So tell me what we should forget o |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by tfash96(m): 2:07pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
OfficialJayy:How many goals did Modric and Canavaro have when they won ballon d'or |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by tfash96(m): 2:14pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
OfficialJayy:Y didn't he single-handedly destroy Napoli in final n the 2 he's lost b4.. Abeg go sit down on top pit |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by Bomboiy: 2:23pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
OfficialJayy: The international flop has won more individual honors for national team sides than any other active player. |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by OfficialJayy: 3:24pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
tfash96: Take a chill pill bro and rest.. just because ronaldo can destroy teams does not mean he is immune to losing matches.. mind you even Messi was unable to inspire his team to victory against the same Napoli side earlier this season |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by OfficialJayy: 3:32pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
tfash96: Modric's performance was consistent throughout the 2018 WC unlike messi who was a passenger during the knockout stages of the 2014 WC Cannavaro won the balon d'or that year because he won the WC and his club performance that year was impeccable, plus zidane's headbutt that year counted against him Besides cannavaro is a defender while modric is a midfielder, and you cant judge these players based on goals scored unless messi who is a forward |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by tfash96(m): 3:33pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
OfficialJayy:I am not disagreeing the fact that Barcelona drew against Napoli. No matter how good Messi can be he can never play it all.. He can never be striking n be keeping at the same time.. Players need each other individually to achieve great goal/aim......If Ronaldo does do everything on his own.. Y couldn't he give his side 3 points against common Sassuolo |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by Techiekingee(m): 3:36pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
OfficialJayy:Oga, Google the meaning of single-handedly first before we continue the argument |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by OfficialJayy: 3:38pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
tfash96: Ronaldo is also the highest goal scorer for his country as well as the player with the most assist.. Ronaldo has two international trophies while messi has none despite playing with better players and in a less difficult competition Messi's individual awards (best player at copa 15 and WC 14) are mere consolation prizes... The kind of favoritism messi enjoys from sport organisers is unparalleled |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by tfash96(m): 3:40pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
OfficialJayy:Messi is a forward indeed but go and be checking his heat map in every match before you'll know how he operates. If Messi leaves the whole midfield work to Busquet and Co after Xavi and Iniesta departure. Do you think any creative performance will come out of it or from it? Saying Messi is just a passenger in that wc is funny.... Pls imagine something rn :Remove Messi in that squad and tell me if Argentina would reach where they reached.. If not for him we Nigerians would've wired their asses in Group stage or the best thing for them is to see draw |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by OfficialJayy: 3:45pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
tfash96: Tell him to win the UCL again na, let me see if he can without neymar.. why do you he's pressuring the barca board into resigning neymar I can remember Neymar's last season at barca, Neymar was the star player dat night when they won PSG 6-1 but yet all the praises went to Messi, which was one of the reasons why neymar left because it was clear that he was always gonna be second best to messi at barca |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by tfash96(m): 3:45pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
OfficialJayy:Heen it's now balance..He has international trophy but Messi doesn't have.. Messi has international individual awards but none for him... And pls who lied to u that Copa America is less competitive... Do I need to tell you how Chile disciplined Ur GOAT's team in last confederation and how he's qualified by Uruguay as well in 2018.. He faced what Messi's been facing |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by OfficialJayy: 3:47pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
Bomboiy: Tell him to win a trophy with argentina first, then I will be willing to listen to you |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by tfash96(m): 3:49pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
OfficialJayy:Like I said seriousness is important in the team.. Look at how Messy Suarez and Coutinho was last season @ Anfield.. Even if he's not saying Neymar he needs good player beside Him.. Age is no longer by his side anymore.... And u saying Neymar.. Pls where's Neymar without Messi in world rn.. Tell me if he's still relevant like before 1 Like |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by chrissy3(m): 3:53pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
sotall:bro the simple question to ask him that would end argument is who has more ballon dor ? That person is better simple ! |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by OfficialJayy: 3:54pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
tfash96: List TEN good teams in copa america, then I will take you serious.. Even if messi likes, let him win 100 individual trophy, as long as he does not win a single trophy, he will still remain a flop.. abi you think that messi who said he would exchange all his ballon d'or for a trophy with argentina is a fool abi |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by Bomboiy: 4:00pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
OfficialJayy: Tell Ronaldo to win an individual honor with Portugal before I will listen to you. |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by OfficialJayy: 4:01pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
tfash96: I don't think you watched Argentina during the k/o stages of the 2014WC.. he wasn't creating much chances and he wasn't even scoring.. their star player during those times was di maria which was one of the reasons why the final was difficult for them because di maria was injured why do you think maradona criticized the decision to give messi the golden ball |
Re: Why Does Almost Every Football Pundit Pick Messi Ahead Of Ronaldo? by OfficialJayy: 4:07pm On Jul 16, 2020 |
tfash96: I never said ronaldo could do everything himself, but rather it was one of you Pessi fanboys who said Pessi can destroy teams apart without help from his teammates... |
