When Messi had no international trophy, Ronaldo fans defined football based on being productive at both club and country level. Now he surpasses Ronaldo in international achievement, and they are talking about the currency of football being goals😂. Truth is, this argument has always being directed where Ronaldo is ahead by his fan base. All of a sudden, the world cup argument used against both Messi and Ronaldo suddenly is not a determining factor. There are so many aspects of football aside goals. Ronaldo is great, yes. But you all know deep down he isn't the greatest. The fact that you love and prefer someone, does not necessarily make him the best... and mind you, there are aspects of football which can only be watched and not quantified. Statistics doesnt do justice to the gestalt of things. For a second... just imagine the personality "Ronaldo" achieved all that "Messi" did in football. Would this even be a debate? I mean i understand how much the media milks from this convo, that's why they can never allow it to die
Today is the first time I’ve seen Ayala saying the truth 😢
When it comes to mentality is Ronaldo and LeBron
