Messi is always the best, now on the first position while Ronaldo is on the second position. More fit the real GOAT.

Please read again...

The point here is who first made the Forbes list ?
Ronaldo made the list first. This is where you should concentrate on ..not who earns more in his club.. of course, Messi earns more from his club

I don't really have anything against Messi but the words second best are the only suitable words that describes him when it comes to achieving anything when Cristiano Ronaldo is around....He will always be second best no matter how hard he tries.... quote me at your own peril cool

I was shocked to learn that Federer is richer than Messi and as rich as Ronaldo. There must be money in this Tennis too.

Very interesting:

"Real Madrid's Gareth Bale is in eighth with $29million (£23million) despite his lack of game time."

dude, it's football!!....one love bro....your insults are entirely unnecessary, it signals a profound lack of adequate composure and articulation on your part.....How much is that short guy from Argentina paying you from his fat paycheck anyway?

my child must play ball oo

someone is sitting on the bench is earning hundred of thousands and millions.

me that is working like a bull have nothing in my account close to tens of thousands.



what about the individuals or the owners of companies that pay these athletes?

whatever path you choose, there is success( monetary) as it implies here. your attitude is gonna make the difference.

both Ronaldo and Messi held the football world hostage for 10 consecutive years. it's no joke!

I didn't insult you. I called you a football Dundee, a colloquial term used for people with inadequate understanding of the beautiful round leather game. You should direct the question of "How much do you earn defending footballers" to yourself because bringing up Ronaldo on a messi thread you just made your self a spokesperson for someone who doesn't even know you existed.

So with this you think Ronaldo has floor Messi.
List of Messi record
Olympic winner
The best player in the tournament
World cup best player
Highest goal scored in a year calendar
Highest assists in a season (21 assists)


The assist record is for La Liga alone and not for all major leagues or general, please.

Are they all personal achievement? It seems you don't know what collective effort is and personal achievement. The only tangible thing you mentioned above is his 100 country goals. If we start stating messi's personal achievement even you yourself will bow your head in respect for him.

So balon dor is not a collective effort?? Or wud he have won them if he played for valencia ,inter Milan or spurs??
They even thank their club or team mates after they win these awards

I'm very sure Messi had since hit the Billion mark. It's just that Forbes just completed their calculations.

Always be calming down, if there's any phrase like that. Don't just rush and comment what you know nothing about, especially anything that petains to soccer. Messi is touted as one of the greatest, if not the greatest in football history. You can't say such for Ronaldo. The highest rating he can get is; one of the best striker in football. By calling you a Dundee in football, I meant you lacked the requisite knowledge to analyse the game and not an insult like you thought.

Messi must've been good in his past life.
He's so blessed beyond words...highly favoured amongst men.
In his next life, he'll be greater because of his humility and modesty.
