Both are GOAT, Ronaldo is the best on social media, Messi is the best in football.
Ronaldo is the best in football
He won everything accept world cup and you're telling him social media 🤣🤣🤣
W statement
@@aniltawahang3257 messi is still a better player
Why people judge goat Ronaldo?🤦🏻♂️ I love both Messi and Ronaldo they are living legends and still active playing world cup 2022/23🥰🥰🥰
Ronaldo is the natural pick for anyone who doesn't watch the game.
Or play it for that matter he's just more popular
Ah yes his 5 ucls aren’t important
Müller???....he doesn’t watch football
Be humble bro, always think u r not as smart as u think; that is wisdom. By the way this is a subjective question, people will respond according to their context. 8 billions people and 8 billions minds. If everyone is thinking alike, then no one is thinking.
@@microsoft_ward The 5 UCLs that also belong to Casemiro, Kroos, Benzema, Modric and Marcelo?
The dedication & hard work of Ronaldo is second to none on earth but Messi is pure talent, Super natural! Out of this world!
Just because Messi doesn't advertise himself doesn't mean that he is not as hard working as Ronaldo. I agree that Ronaldo's work ethic is insane but you don't perform as consistently as Messi without having a high quality work ethic. In 2022, he is arguably the best all round player rn. He was the best a decade ago, let that sync in!
this ronaldo is hard worker and messi is talent is by far the dumbest take i have heard ever since this debate started
Messi is hard working too, the difference is he didn't post photos when he workout at gym to Instagram.
Lies... Messi trains hard as well... He is not a diva to be showing every training session on social media... letting his son do sit ups for social media...CRY-7 will use anything even his son for attention... Messi would never...
@@serbronnoftheblackwater4149 wow dude this is the big difference
Messi’s playmaking alone gets him into the GOAT debate, add 750+ goals to that you have the best player ever imo.
Yeh, i still dont understand ronaldo hype
He is good and probably the best after messi but messi plays football on a hole different level

Funny thing is messi isn’t that behind from Ronaldo in terms of goals, let’s not forget that he’s not just two years younger but not even a goalscorer like Ronaldo is 😊
but you should remember in 9years 450goals in 438 matches in madrid.can you deny

Messi played in la liga where Barcelona and Madrid won it since 2004
The only team who won it was Atletico Madrid
When Ronaldo played in the Premier league it was harder to score goals
When he moved to Spain it was evident that his goals picked up. Messi had it easier in La liga compared to Ronaldo in EPL. The games were much tougher
Ronaldo scored 450 goals in 438 for Real
He scored 101 for Juventus if you add that up it it would've been 551
He would've scored more goals for Madrid in that 3 years he spent at Juve
Messi scored 672 778 goals for Barcelona and he spent almost his whole career in there
Bro if Ronaldo stayed at Real Madrid and Left like Messi last season things would've been much much closer I'm telling you. I'm not saying he would've surpassed Messi but I think it would've been much closer than what it is in reality
Ronaldo was a goal machine at Real
Messi played 340 more games than Ronaldo
Messi played in a league where it was predetermined who is going to win it either Real Madrid or Barcelona and its still that ways because look who is at the top now
Messi has more non-penalty goals than Ronaldo and better stats in dribbling, assists, playmaking, secondary assists, and man of the matches. Crazy how most coaches and high tier players chose Messi too
Most icons choose Ronaldo including Pele, Zidane, Lampard, Kaka, Roberto Carlos, Giggs and many others. The only reason Messi has more goals is that Cristiano was playing as a midlfieder in United for like 3 or 4 seasons. That's not an argument.
Also he played in different leagues, has more goals and assists in CL league, has better CL play-off ratio, better international competitives ratio, better La Liga all time ratio, the most 25+ meter goals in history, most matchwinners in history, also he's officially the best goalscorer in history of the sport. There's no comparison.
@@user-pm2zy6rj1c They don't tho expect Zidane. Pele says Messi in a recent interview. And they doesn't make sense cause Messi played in mid field like 90% of his career
@@user-pm2zy6rj1c Ronaldo has way more CL games than Messi played and barely more goals and assists than Messi. Different leagues don't matter cause he performs well against Premier League teams too. Cmon bro u making Ronaldo fans look bad

@@user-pm2zy6rj1c most icons choose messi
Cruyff,Maradona,dinho,r9,cafu,Maldini,Beckham and lot more
The names you mentioned,played or coached him
There is no comparison what so ever, not a real one at least, it is a MEDIA "rivalry", but every normal human being who loves and watches football would say Messi and this comparison makes Messi looks less than what he actually is and makes Cristiano better than what he actually is. One aspect of Cristiano can be compared with Messi which is goal scoring, and Messi percentage wise and quality wise (not needing great teammates to assist him) is also much better and efficient than Cristiano, but what about all other extraordinary things Messi does? reading the game, his vision, movements, passing skills, of course god level dribbling skills, FK .. and more, you can pick one side of Messi and compare it with a whole other great player's career, you would put Messi with Neymar in terms of dribbling, Cristiano in terms of goal scoring, Iniesta in terms of passing, Xavi in terms of vision and more, this alone tells you that Messi is the GOAT and much bigger than any other player. We judge Messi on the things that he "couldn't achieve" like the WC and Copa (before her won it) and that alone should tell you that he's the GOAT, you are judging him on a criteria of his own, every other player you would argue his skills and achievements, with Messi he is judged by the things that he still didn't achieve which is basically just the WC lol, that alone tells you he's the best, you are admitting that he's the GOAT when you try to belittle him.
I agree, ronaldo is a good player but overhyped and nowhere near the level of messi
The only thing he has more is Instagram followers and that has nothing to do with football
I swear mate messi is on a level of his own the painful thing ronaldo talks alot and is more popular with all this thing he brings to himself but anyone who watches football and is in the right position to judge clearly will 9/10 say Messi
Any human with a decently sized brain knows that ronaldo is not close in any way to messi.
@@johnumukoro1244 if messi spoke even half as much ronaldo everyone would be behind him,ronaldo has so many deluded fanboys because he speaks,people moon over their superheroes when they have something to say
Not reading all of that but you're right

thats literally not true but okay

facts you still gotta respect the work he been putting in because he really got 150% out of his full talents because of that
Big respect to Ronaldo, but he is no more than a legendary goalscorer. Not even close to being greatest footballer of all time. That is Messi's title
Thing is tho,its not even ronaldo,its the media. Messi was called the GOAT at age 23,and that was back in 2011,we hadnt yet seen his most explosive season(2012-13) or his most balanced(2014-15) or the one where he carried barca the most(2018-19). Despite all of that,somehow ronaldo is still involved in the convo. I m7st give jt to his fans,ronaldo isnt even 10 levels close to messi,and that has been the way since 2010

That can't have been filmed this season.
i was wondering the same thing......i think that specific video is not that of a recent one
its a compilation or montage or collage of anwering that specific questions.
True that...
LoL
Messi is by far the better footballer. A considerably better dribbler, passer, playmaker, freekick taker as well as a better finisher. Ronaldo can head the ball better and can take a better penalty... Thats about it. Talent-wise, Ronaldo is not on level with Maradona, George Best, Cruyff, Zidane, R9 let alone Messi. He just has the statistics. Which is fine. But they dont tell the whole picture.
So you’re telling me zidane maradona george best cruyf and r9 are better than ronaldo😂
You're acting like sepp Blatter on this comments so narcessistic 🤦🏻♂️
Hahahaha better finisher? Have you seen him at PSG? His finishing is whack. Ronaldo is faster, stronger, better at LONGshots, finishing, heading, penalties, off the ball movement and many other things.
Zidane, Pele, Kaka, Lampard, Giggs and many other icons picked him over Messi? Guess why? Cuz he's just a better footballer, that's it. Robaldo is known for carrying his teams in big games, Messi - for ghosting in them and walking with his head down while losing another big game. Different levels.
and what happens in big games ? i heard one of them bottles everything..
Huh? Messi couldn’t do half the skills CR7 can. Let’s not be delusional please😂
Messi Magic is a once in a lifetime player.
Will we ever see a football goat like this again?
Ronaldo is literally better, messi is just an overhyped small game player. He is nothing anymore at high stage since 2015
@@Masim443 youre a troll
Yes, Malcolm
@Renato sanches what? Not even close
@@alibarznji2000 Haaland can beat Ronaldo in terms of goalscoring capabilities by the speed at which he is growing. Ronaldo's leadership/influence on the team is something that is near impossible to achieve even for haaland
Cristiano only argument is quantity, Messi it's quantity and quality
Both have both
Missi is hgh 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Quantity.....in which sense ?
Ronaldo has quality too so what you're saying makes no sense
No, Ronaldo is the quality
Just by looking at Messi dribbling and magical passing abilities is enough to know he's a better football player. Then you check the advanced stats like xG, key passes, through ball, touches in opposition half, failed ball controls, ball carries, successful 1v1, goals/assists, passing accuracy, free kicks stats (scored, precision) etc... and again, Messi is the better offensive player !
Finally, if you could mesure the hype that one or the other generates among football fans by just watching them play, I think Messi would again win the battle as Messi does way more things on the ball (especially 1v1, ball carries, tight spaces situations getting out of pressure by himself) and with his high quality passes + quickness and precision in the technical execution of all those things.
Messi > Ronaldo. I mean how could you deny what I just wrote there... If you can't accept that, you just don't know this sport and you just love Ronaldo too much.
You think Ronaldo fans understand what any of those stats mean, lol?
Pessi...is oy good at dribbling due to his short height
Pessi literally stayed for whole life in a club
@@shahabuddin2802 exactly 🤣🤣🤣
@XXSAVAGE 2021-22 channel 😂😂 go watch tennis or golf. I think you didn't understand the concept of this sport... wow! how is it possible to be so dumb !?
Anyone who understands football will say Messi is better ,infact you cannot compare him to Messi. Messi is THE GOAT of football.
I disagree, I understand football and I say Ronaldo is the GOAT. What a stupid comment.
Anyone who understand football will know that these two are entirely different players and cannot compare. You can compare based on trust, can you trust Messi in the dying minutes? Not much, but Ronaldo, well statistics back it up.
Such a stupid comment. Messi is better for me but people who say Ronaldo is better can still understand football. Pele is one of the greatest football players ever and he picked Ronaldo, I'm quite sure he knows football. Just because people don't share the same opinions as you doesn't mean they don't understand football.
@@ashwinsundar6726 they are two very different players. One who is primarily a goal scorer who relies on other to control the game and provide for him. The other who controls the tempo of the game, provides for other players, and has roughly the same amount of goals as the other player who is primarily focused on scoring and nothing else. I’ll let you figure out which is which.
@@smallarmskepa4390 Well what do you expect from a striker? Ronaldo should also go back and defend? Haaland also relies on the team to score goal, that's what strikers are, the entire team builds towards him. In case of Messi, he is more of a false 9 or sometimes has a free role which is why he scores and assissts as well. So what have learned from this? That it all boils down to the manager, so if Messi is told by his manager to focus only on scoring, he only has to do that, else he is gonna stay in bench.
There shouldn’t be a debate messi is the goat period
Better goal/per game ratio while not being a striker
Most assist in history
Best passer in history
One of if not the best at dribbling
More team trophies
More individual trophies
And lets not forget more ballon dors/ mvp awards
The only thing ronaldo has more is followers on instagram and that doesnt have anything to do with football

@Top 10 pessi is finished in my book 🥱 couldn't even score 2 goals against a mickeymouse country
Goalscoring is the only area of football where Ronaldo is at par with Messi
Messi is better even in that..goals per game ratio is better...And in other aspects like assists,playmaking,key passes Messi is far superior to Ronaldo..
And better weak foot, better heading, stronger, faster, skills. I give passing and dribbling to messi
Messi averages more goals than Cristiano, and is only a few shy of him having played over 100+ games less, hes a better goalscorer
@@KristianDabeski Messi's strength is underrated. Shrugs off the defender and gets on with the game. Faster than Ronaldo with the ball definitely. Hardly falls down. This is also owing to a lower centre of gravity helping him do that just like being tall helps Ronaldo with heading ability.

ahem, expert on all things Muller here. jk, jk. Has nothing to do with Barca hate, Muller flipped the question on them, which is why he was first going , you sure I can't ask you guys the questions. Anyways, Muller said. He'd prefer to play with Ronaldo because assisting was a big part of his game now, and Ronaldo like Lewandowski would be perfect for his style of play, since they stay up in the box to finish chances.
muller is just stupid talking as if ronaldo and messi played alone against bayern. ronaldo player for the best club team since di stefanos real madrid when he faced muller with zidanes madrid team
Thomas only picked Ronaldo because our Bayern always lose to Real Madrid, and have good record on Barca. Thomas deep down knows Messi is better, as most Bayern fans.
Messi is always the number one, he is genuine in term of talent and ability to impact the game. And also messi mother and sister always have good attitude in social media and thats is really plus point for messi.
☝🤓"messi mother and sister always have good attitude in social media and thats why messi is the goat"
The people who truly know and love the game will say Messi, those less informed will say Crkelly
Actually people who truly know the game and love love game will say BOTH. Ronaldo before 37yrs old, from 18 to 36 was a beast, Messi is not yet 37 so still a beast so Both
Crkelly? You need to go get checked...
Most forced debate of all time. Ronaldo is good, but he’s closer to Neymar or Suarez than Messi. That’s the truth. Messi is just different.

-Top 1 in the "UEFA Trophy" award
The point where the debate comes in is between the goals, where each one has arguments to be classified as the best goalscorer, and in the UCL, (where Ronaldo is better than Messi in this aspect).
In literally every other aspect of football, Messi wins. The thing is that, in the football aspects where Ronaldo wins, Messi is close or even in same level compared to Ronaldo, while in the football aspects where Messi wins, Messi has a significant advantage in each one, where Ronaldo is not close to Messi in those things.
Yes, the only debate is in the UCL (Ronaldo clearly better in this aspect) and in goals (debatable), in other things, Messi has a lot of advantage.
If u realize most of the ones who says Ronaldo takes long an has to think but everyone saying Messi said it fast goes to show how unsure they are Messi all the way

Messi just has that natural ability like Goku and just tends to garner the attention but....
just like Vegeta, Ronaldo trains and grinds and machines his body to surpass Messi from time to time.
There are moments in the timeline that Ronaldo has been better but generally speaking Messi is just a little better than Ronaldo :)
but Goku is taller and better looking than Vegeta..
But is Ronaldo really more hard working? Just because Messi dosen't post as much as Ronaldo in social media, dosen't automatically mean Messi is less hard-working.
Its not the conventional hard working I agree to reach messi's level you need to be an insanely hard working player, I mean more along the lines of conditioning your body i.e.(ice baths, workouts, strength training, jumping hang time, muscle isolation) without question Ronaldo has to do this more to make up for the lack of skillset he has when compared to Messi

After 2022 we shouldn't be comparing these two. Messi needs a new worthy opponent.
Messi was given the gift and Ronaldo built his talent. Both GOATs but more respect for Ronaldo from me.
talent cant be builted thats why its talent skill can be builted
Given by whoom? 🤣
With increase in age both Messi n Ronaldo's speed will decline.
But Messi's game will be almost same coz he relies his strength at techniques,assist,dribbling n play making n for that u don't have to run much.
But Ronaldo's game will be completely change coz he relies on speed to reach the perfect spot to score.

@Top 10 read my second comment idiot
Messi is the goat doesn’t mean we have to drag Ronaldo down too, Messi’s one bad season didn’t mean anything because he’s good. Why can’t Ronaldo get the same treatment?
We all know Ronaldo is faster, stronger, better at LONGshots, finishing, heading, penalties, off the ball movement and many other things. He's also more consistent, shows up in big games and caried his team in CL even at 37 years of age playing in the toughest league. I think the debate is over at this point.
How is he a better finisher when his shooting to goal and scoring ratio is horrendous compared to Messi’s? It’s a fact that Messi is a better finisher it’s statistically proven. You’re naming attributes that are athletic and I bet there’s many other players who are stronger, faster, and better at long shots then Messi. Messi literally is the player with the most goals scored in finals ever, it’s ironic.
Messi small game player, Ronaldo big game player, thats the difference
Agreed 100%
@@josearellano3670 maybe cuz Cristiano played as a midlfieder in United for like 3 or 4 seasons while Messi was always a winger-forward? Go learn the history, kid
Ronaldo is incomparable. Greatest player i have seen by far
Ronald is the best. Started as a midfielder; played as a midfielder most of his career and pulled ridiculous numbers.
Messi is great, no doubt, but you just have to say that the Barca system helped him a lot. It fit him perfectly.
Ronaldo would have done magical numbers if he was in that Barca team with Xavi & Iniesta.
Great players. Legendary.
Ronaldo played for the best teams in every league... also messi plays from much deeper than ronaldo.
the quality of voters matters. i just realized that most voters with footballing sense chose Messi and heres why; just like one player once said, Ronaldo can score 5 goals in one match which is absolutely great, but what makes Messi more dangerous is that he can score 5 goals in one match and still assists his team mates to each score five goals. in scientific terms, Messi is a concave lense, he will spread his vibe to others to enjoy the hapiness with him while Ronaldo is a convex lense, it has to always be all about him, and when its not, thats when we see incidences like the current one.
Easy: Messi
Of course Nueur says Messi after he got eviscerated by him in CL semi final.

Ronaldo the greatest goal scorer world has ever seen ❤
No pessi that midget is better
Yet messi has better goal/game ratio
👏
True. Messi the greatest footballer the world has ever seen
Still Messi has more Golden boots!! Why bro ???
Messi(80%talent20%hard work). Ronaldo(80%hard work20%talent).
7 Ballon dors, 6 golden boots, one WC golden ball, more head to head win, beaten Ronaldo in champions league semi final and final, better dribbler, better assist maker, better goal per match ratio, better vision, better playmaker, 91 goals in a calendar year, Messi is way better than Ronaldo it's not even a question, infact he's the best player in the football history👽🐐
Shaheen Afridi was Unexpected😂
Legend. He has no clue about football though.
Lmao, I noticed the same.
Both are greats. One is great at being an opportunist for goals, other is great at being Picasso and Da Vinci at the same time. I did not name anyone here.
Now you know who is the greatest. You’re welcome 😂
Messi was chosen by more diverse people
Ronaldo was mostly picked by either former teammates or the English because he played in England
So Ronaldo should have stayed in La Liga his whole career like Messi did for this to be fair?
Messi small game player, Ronaldo big game player, thats the difference
honestly I don't why people pick ronaldo but am yet to hear an arguement that would prove ronaldo is better cos am super open-minded here
@@dimitryivanov9778 No. Ronaldo just had more bias answers
@Touhami against bayern Munich, juventus,psg,real madrid since 2018,inter Milan,ac milan I never seen him on the pitch
This debate is over, Messi is with out a doubt better than Ronaldo. The fact speaks for it self. Just look at the wining things, and goal and assist, and Messi has won the World Cup. Messi vs Ronaldo is over. Messi won that one.
Everyone who choose messi never had to think about it . He's the best to ever play football
you can say you like Ronaldo but you can't say Ronaldo is better than Messi because Messi can win MOTM without scoring but Ronaldo can't and also Messi has won most MOTM in football history and has better average match rating tham Ronaldo.
Both is a generational talent..what these two had done in football will take years to even try to emulate what these two had done..its just a matter of which style of play that we preferred..both are very different player...
That is the dumbest argument Ronaldo fans present. There's no way choosing between Messi and Ronaldo comes down to preference. The gap in terms of ability is too big. Any adult with a functioning brain would be able to see that.
@@shahabuddin2802 sorry man i disagree completely...imagine haaland need to score 40+ a season in a next 15+ years..if u think its easy than every striker should be in that level...ronaldo record speaks for itself...its a playstation record in real life..as i said we have our own preference style of player..and its mind boggling that u just brush off ronaldo like he does nothing in the football world..a true football fan would think like this..sorry mate
@@rajaashraf7768 My fellow Pakistani brother. A true football fan would also consider advanced stats while comparing players. Stats such as xGoals, xAssists, Chances created, Dribbles completed. And when you take all of these stats into consideration, you realize that Ronaldo is NOWHERE near the best player of his generation.
Ronaldo became more successful when he became an out and out goalscorer. After the 2014 season, he was basically a goal poacher. Lewandowski since 2020 have been delivering same level of numbers as Ronaldo, and they both practically have the same gameplay. The reason Lewa doesn't get hyped as much is because he isn't insta famous like our dear Ronaldo.
@@rajaashraf7768 When Ronaldo fans bring up his numbers they always conveniently ignore goals/game ratio. Among the other top scorers in football. Players such as Pele, Romario, Messi, Bican, Muller, Eusebio. Ronaldo has the worst ratio, BY FAR. It's just that he has managed to stay fit for a long time.
If Haaland/Mbappe stay fit. They'll easily surpass Ronaldo's record. They can even surpass Messi's. But unlike Messi, Ronaldo's only claim to being one of the GOAT contenders is his goals.
@@shahabuddin2802 sorry im not pakistani...as i said true football fans will appreciate both of what they've done in football....and you prove me right because its all comes back to our preference...you chose messi because of all this reason and i chose ronaldo for other reason..the point is ive never brush of messi like you do to ronaldo..i try to point out that it will take 50 years to see this kind of two generational talents stand head to head and provide us with the entertainment all these years..u clearly a ronaldo hater not a true football fan..please read my 1st statement carefully...but yeah its your choice to dumb down all ronaldo achievement in football..im just saying it is what it is...messi has a better ability..yes but for me ronaldo is a michael jordan type of players..the clutch in this guy is unreal..but then..we all prefer different kind of player...imagine we are all football manager...some will love a messi type of player that can provide creativity as well as scoring prowess..some prefer a workhorse that can always find a clutch moment because of his athletic ability,strong mentality and relentless effort to try score a goal..from my stance...no hate between these two players...true football fans will always appreciate these two kind of players..i hope u understand and think it carefully.
Dont let the ronaldo hate cloud all your ability to see what is not if you truly a football fan..
Lol only votes I actually count of Ronaldo is Reece James, Xhaka, and Muller. The rest are celebrities, other sportsmen who don't have a clue about football😂 or his teammates. Shows what pr can do.
Let’s compare the numbers by individual…
Goals per game: Messi ✅
Assists per game: Messi ✅
Minutes per goal: Messi ✅
Hat tricks: CR7
Penalty goals: CR7
Penalty conversion rate: CR7
Free kick goals: Messi ✅
Free kick conversion rate: Messi ✅
Goals outside the box: Messi ✅
Goals inside the box: CR7
% of shots on target: Messi ✅
Shots per goal: Messi ✅
Successful dribbles: Messi ✅
Man of the match: Messi ✅
Everything else is debatable as it’s not based on individual performance. The one thing I would say is that CR7 is UCL king but true football fans know who really is the 🐐
Complete footballer vs complete striker
It's all down to what kind of style or player you enjoy more in the game
Shaheen is also there😂❤
It’s interesting that most of the non football playing athletes chose Ronaldo over Messi

I don't understand the Ronaldo pick, he's a great goalscorer but he's not as good as Messi on a football pitch!!!
to all these people in the comments everytime I talk to a ronaldo fan that is like above the age of like 24-25 that has followed their whole career says that he loves ronaldo but that they are beeing realistic and know the spot as the best player leads to lionel messi
For most of the footballers: Messi
For F1 races, MLS (basically F1 racers again), MMA (same as F1) : Ronaldo
Non football personalities voting for Ronaldo....whereas all the legends and top players voting for Messi says it all.
I didn't knew Pele was a non football personality, I swear these fanboys write the most illogical arguments ever.... at least chose one that makes sense
@@goncaloferreira8543 bro 95 percent of the top players prefer messi over ronaldo bcz of his talent.....i didnt say ronaldo is nothing but he is certainly not even close to messi.
People picking Ronaldo over Messi represents everything that is wrong with the world. And this is not even an overstatement
Messi 21 Ronaldo 15💪
Recent survey result, Johan Cruyff and Cristiano Ronaldo join 1st. Zinidine Zidane and Ronaldinho join 2nd. Diego Maradona and Eden Hazard join 3rd. Ronaldo and Kylian Mbappe join 4th. Kaka and Erling Haaland join 5th. 6th Lionel Messi. Thierry Henry and Neymar Jr join 7th. 8th Pele. Roberto Carlos and Luka Modric join 9th. Jurgen Klinsmann and Gianluigi Buffon join 10th
I am MUFC fans. Watching Messi is like watching a football wizard entertaining the fans. Watching Christiano is like watching a football beast scoring goals. Nevertheless, Messi is a little bit better than Christiano with less obsession with social media and commercial exploitation.
Both great! I prefer ronaldo as he has been proven himself to be the more clutch, reliable and versatile goalscorer as well as being able to adapt to many teams. His playmaking abilities are also criminally underrated as he is the best when it comes to the tactical improvement of the team, which includes: breaking defense lines, general off the ball movement like positions etc, creating final pass options and more. Of course he is not that much involved in creation anymore (key passes/chance creation/Assists) but his raw numbers in those categories shows that he still is one of the best playmakers in the creation category.
You must be high on weed while posting this comment I guess. Ronaldo can't do playmaking.. most of his assists are just crosses and deflected shots, lol 😂
Chiellini didn't want to get the Gary Neville treatment
Hear what Chellini said after CR went??
If anybody who wanna know who is the best footballer let me tell you. Forget about Trophy and awards just compare by the performances throughout their careers. Most Man of the Match, Most Valuable Player and Most player of the Month. I think these things tells who the best is. Scoring goals is just one part of the game but doing all the part define complete player. One is a complete striker who is good at heading,and both legs the other one is a complete footballer/player who can play everywhere
Lukaku wanted to say his own name
Players with abilites like Lukaku ( that relies on their physicality ) will always go for Ronaldo. I have seen female footballers that have a better first touch then Lukaku lol.
Messi: 21
CR7: 16
However, all the non-footballers picked CR7 (as far as I noticed).
most of the players that say Ronaldo because they didn't watch as much football excluding Müller which surprises me
Muller recently said Messi is better in that interview he meant who was better against him
The question Should be:
Who is the Best of the Rest?
Ronaldo 7, Ronaldo 9, Ronaldinho, Cruyff, Zidane, Maradona, Pele..
Because Messi is the Greatest.
Ronaldo is easily the best, challenged himself in all the top leagues in the world. Messi ran off to play in a farmers league.
Thats why Ronaldo is the most rejected player.. won Dubai Dors
In words of Maradona ''a Cristiano Ronaldo le tienen miedo'' real recognize real.
He was jealous of the real one 😏💯💯💯
Maradona was jealous of Messi for good reason.
I honestly don’t understand how people think cr7 is better. Messi is the best dribbler, passer, assist maker and has a superior goals to game ratio. Only think cr7 is better at is heading
Messi was always considered great from a kid the moment you started the debate who is better that's when Ronaldo pass messi....neymar great no one puts him over messi but they do Ronaldo
I have been a big Ronaldo fan for years, but still I'd say Messi is the greatest ever. He is an alien, there is no one like him in this sport.
Answer is always Messi, why people even do this?
Messi won the world Cup bro ? Are you still asking ?
why is it still a debate? yes Ronaldo polarizes, has one of the best careers and is maybe better known in public but everyone who plays and watches ball should see that Messi is way more gifted and better than Ronaldo in almost everything. he's simply the better football player and even the stats can proof it.
Messi. It's not even a question.
Ur mom is a question
But somehow it is a question,the world is crazy
Ronaldo is closer to zlatan and isnt close to messi, its just ronaldo social media fansboys that keep this debate alive
