If EPL flops/rejects/Old cargoes like Lukaku, Sanchez, Ramsey and Eriksson are those you are referring to as top players, then I fear for your affinity for mediocrity. An average league like the Serie A truly suits you and your ilk then.

So tell me the players that joined la liga?? That league is dead ... ur goat and best la liga team in the past decade based on number of league titles win was disgraced by bayern , the other time they were disgraced by Liverpool

This rating is from the Alcohol drinking association. Ronaldo no even dey the ratings. Tueh..

this list is a big joke, how come iniesta, hazard and modric made the list and David Silva is left out? in the last 10 seasons in the premier league, he has been the best and most consistent playmaker. Stupid list!

Nairalandwizerd:
Stagnant player. He should move to another league or club, then I'll take him serious. Up Ronaldo.

If u discover where ur destiny is u will Excell.
His destiny lies in Barcelona, that is why he keep making waves.
Thank you.

schoolmaster:

Beverlyjean:


Are u really asking when last Ronaldo appeared in a final of the CL?? Pls when last did messi see final...since iniesta left, he has failed to appear in the CL final for over 5yrs and I don't think he will b seeing that final again till he retires ...let him keep on decieving u guys by scoring and winning la liga titles...that la liga sef is now an almost impossible task.... suarez left barca and joined Atletico and now its now Atletico topping la liga and barca dead with ur fake goat

Lol, How many times penaldo reach UCL semi final sir??

He can't coz no bale, modric and Ramos at Juventus. He claimed the glory of those guys

Nairalandwizerd:

Dey there dey follow bandwagon... The Messi that has played against your best from England and did shine. Stop hating this guy, no be him fault to over sabi

emusmithyy:
Global Awards Dubai gave to Ronaldo, Best of the Century because of what he did in 3 different clubs, winning UCL 3 straight with Real Madrid, 4× in 5 years. Breaking records with Juventus. Winning UCL with Man Utd. Winning 2 Intl trophies with Portugal.

Messi remains in a comfort zone doing pity party video with Media guys whether to leave or stay.

That can't be my GOAT!

Global awards dubai is not recognized by Fifa na just some arab money talibans so no hype am too much

With ronaldo is like he still have something something to proof. He is still going about proofing himself in different countries. ronaldo has proven himself in every country he has ever played they say..

With messi, he has nothing to proof. Messi has proven himself to everyone who has ever seen him play irrespective of the countries they are.he does not need to go over to any country to proof anything.

Ronaldo first appeared in a final with a different team( man u) infact Ronaldo appeared in semi final and final b4 those players u mentioned.... he carried that spirit to Madrid cos he appeared in 3 consecutive semi final and 2 consecutive finals with man u , when at the sane time madrid with ur ramos and co had never seen quater final...

lexy2014:


There are some players that will always be one club players but that will not in anyway diminish their quality. D likes of maldini and totti are examples

No one is complaining about sticking to one club ...but the argument is comparing and saying he is better than another that has proved himself in other clubs ... its simple logic ... its like saying someone that has excelled in just one business is better than another that has excelled in that same business coupled with other businesses

Many agree that messi is a natural breed.

And Ronaldo is more or less what will happen if we push ourselves and learn more.

Both has prestige, respect as well as honor.

The problem is if it be any is that the later would not have anything to learn from if the natural is not available To be observed.

Siwel25:


People forget that Ronaldo is over 2 years older and has played more matches. There's no way Messi won't match and surpass him even in goals.

It doesn't work that way...are u sure messi wudnt hv retired at 36 or wud hv declined heavily... ronaldo is already on 22 goals in 20 games this season for club and Country at age 36... messi is on 14 goals in 24 games for club and Country at 33... ronaldo was already hitting 30 goals this stage of the season when he was messis age

congrats GOAT...saw earlier that he is number 5 on the list of highest goal scorer ever that cr7 is topping and here he is again on the top of the list of best play maker of the decade and I dnt even see cr7 on the top 10 list...
Leo is my GOAT not jus because of just goals, if being a GOAT is all about goals, dt means biacan dt held the record of most goals would be involved in the GOAT aguement but he isnt...
Leo is the best football genius the world would ever see because he can easily decide a game on his bad day even without scoring goals and end up as the catalyst for his team Victory..
and that's the difference between just a goal scorer and a goal scorer that is also the best play maker...
Leo started 2yrs after cr7 did and he did all this insane numbers and deserves some respect from those hating...
haters know all these but bias and sentiments won't make them attest to this..

The fact that Cr7 is not on that list at all makes it invalid, non and void

Oga, how many U L he won after he left Madrid??

Even Messi trashed him 2x in man utd in UCL final, nobody in juve to do dirty work for him like Madrid and claim the glory.

thats the list for the decade....Google IFFHS and read how that points were gotten from each seasons..
being a playmaker isn't just about goals or assist it simply means the key players in their team that the whole tactics evolve around..
thats why the list are dominated with midfielders and wingers that do assist..
cr7 is a goal scorer but not a playmaker even if he gives nice assist...his current juve squad is lacking a playmaker duty done by dybala bt he isnt on his form yet..

ThierryJay:
- This comment by Tebas in 2019 absolutely nullifies your assertion: "A player like Neymar gives you a following in countries that look out for him, but he's not an essential element, not even Cristiano Ronaldo was. Lionel Messi, on the other hand, is an essential element because he's the heritage of La Liga". I have nothing to add because it is from the source, the oracle of La liga itself.
Maybe not a sendforth, but if you are resigning from your workplace and no one persuaded you to stay, then it shows you are not seen as adding value there. That's common knowledge in the corporate ecosystem.
Bros, it was a prolonged saga. Barca and la liga were running helter skelter to persuade Messi to change his mind. That sends a strong signal.

I do not dispute this but it also doesn't nullify the argument. At least 8 came during Messi's era, which the EPL cannot match (5 UCLs), so indeed in the past 20 years, the La liga has been a better league than the EPL and the Serie A/Bundesliga.

La liga became dominant because of ronaldo and not messi... ronaldo won it 4 times in 9years and appeared in 8 semis during the same years... when he was in England, the British dominated CL , when he left epl became average in the CL thru ronaldos 6yrs in EPL , English teams appeared 6 times ( 5 consecutive finals) while Spain only appeared twice in the sane period but when he joined la liga, Spanish teams appeared 8 times...infact he is the only player that has appeared in CL finals that had 2 teams from the same country in two different leagues

NORSIYK:
Playing against Agricultural Eibar, Marlloca, Osasuna, Granada and Co week in week out will definitely earn you a playmaker award

You're right a play maker against , Bayern , Chelsea , Arsenal, Man U , Mancity, Tot, Liv will always make that list .

focus7:
Which is football history and statistics again?

These Messi fans will always look for something to contend Ronaldo's achievement. So because Ronaldo was declared the best footballer of the century by a reputable body now some group of disgruntled elements suddenly go and form fhs to also declare Messi the football maker of the century.

One thing we all know is that Ronaldo is always setting the mile stone for Messi to pursue, Ronaldo is better than Messi

This same organisers also gave simeone best coach ahead of zidane klopp and guadiola

Lol! Show me ur stat

Here is their stat.

mokkalu1:


Him no fit catch up with Ronaldo on goalscoring, them create this one for am. I de see Ozil for the list sef

Says who ? Ronaldo is just 40 goals with 2 years ahead of Messi . Messi scores an average of 25 goals or more in a season calculate the stats . Messi can break Ronaldo's goal record in a single season and set a new one. That's one of the reasons Ronaldo is fighting so hard to score because that's the only thing he'll be remembered for.
