such a forced debate, i have to credit ronaldo PR team to actually make him look close to messi

[sakibahmedsezan]

Peter Drury:
He was Beautiful
He was the point of difference
H has always been the point of difference
Unparallaed
And Maybe today there will of course always be those who argue
Always be those who debate
And the dabate can rage on if you like
But as he falls in love with the object in the world that his heart most desired
It is hard to escape this opposition that he has rendered himself today
The Greatest of All Time

How is there even a debate or a match... No on has and will ever be. King Leo

[Slim-Clips]

This was never even a question, Messi.

[fallguys]

cr7 - best scorer
messi - best scorer, best playmaker, best passer, best dribbler
Messi's influence is great even in a game where he didn't score a goal

[Ramkumarjaga]

First touch, dribbling, passing, ball control, finishing, vision, free kicks
Messi has got em all..

[sujitgilbert]

MESSI can literally put on a match winning performance without even scoring I don't think Ronaldo can

[TheWiseJames]

Messi averaged 65 goal contributions every year for 18 years since his debut, Ronaldo has averaged 54 goal contributions every year for 20 years. Messi holds the record for most assists (120 more than than Ronaldo). Messi holds the record for the most goals in a calendar year (91). Ronaldo only has 23 goals more than Messi in a career that has lasted 2 years longer, I am pretty sure Messi can score 23 more goals within 2 years considering he has averaged like 40 goals every year for 18 years. Messi is the GOAT it is not even a debate. Ronaldo is up there with the best of all time but he is not close to that number 1 slot. No way.

[dadmonster]

Been watching the sport since 1998. Ronaldinho, Ronaldo Nazario, Iniesta, Xavi, Deco, Puyol, Beckham. Even clips of Maradona and Pele made me interested in the game. But Messi made me believe that it was something far more beautiful than just a game.

[surabhiawasthi]

How is this a debate anymore ?
I respect Cristiano for all of his achievements in football, but let’s be honest with ourselves, this was never a debate to begin with.

Leo is simply the best ever.

[BadDubII]

"Messi hasnt been to to PL" Doesnt Messi have crazy good stats vs the PL teams in the CL?

[dhananjaymalhotra]

Huge respect for Ronaldo for being so consistent and disciplined over such a long period of time. He is one of the greatest football players of all time. But Messi is a notch above Ronaldo. Messi is an unbelievable playmaker and scores goals as well as provides assists. No one comes close to his abilities.

[babujanneh]

As Peter Drury says, "there will always be those that debate, but the debate can range on if you like but as he (Messi falls in love with the object his heart most desired" the greatest of all time.. Goat 🐐

[EP]

Just the fact that Ronaldo was able to be named in the same sentence as Messi for so many years just tells you how amazing and incredible Ronaldo was. But at the end of the day the distance between Messi and second place is vast.
Messi plays in his own realm above us and all we mortals can do is watch in admiration.
Ronaldo, Maradona, Pele and everyone else can battle it out for the goat status. Messi is an alien and just out of this world 👽👽. No one comes close.

[qwertyzxccvk]

"Playing in Multiple leagues", when messi has more goals against PL top 5. It's the only argument Ronaldo fans can make. Messi is the GOAT 🐐 hands down.

[MrPeanutlufc]

For me, De Boer put it right.

I think he's so far ahead of everyone that has ever played and that's not disrespectful to the others but Messi just plays at a different level to them.

As a playmaker he's one of the best ever, as a winger he was world class, as a striker or false 9 he was one of the best ever, his passing, finishing, dribbling, free kicks and goalscoring ability are all world class and could be argued as the top 5 ever for all those attributes.

Then we break down his career, from 18-23, he was one of the best ever, same again from 24-29 and again from 30-35. Any of those 5 year segments are probably better than most top players ever to play the game. People forget his pressing and how good that was earlier in his career, the fight he had for every ball.

Wrap all that up and I think it's inarguable, I understand why people say Ronaldo and he has had an absolutely incredible career but he doesn't have all those attributes and he can't dictate games like Messi.

[gosuprime]

Messi never needed a World Cup to be the best: it's about more than the 700 goals, it's the magic he does without the ball. The fact that someone with that many goals can CREATE goals out of nothing is truly amazing. He is a game changer, probably the best we have ever seen. He has the ability to make goals like a Modric or a Pirlo, but also score out of seemingly nowhere as well.

And that is why there is no debate: cause Messi is far more than putting the ball into the net. The cup isn't needed to prove he is great, Modric for example is one of the best midfielders ever as well. And no WC doesn't change that.

[alansmith]

Messi. Stats can't show what he's like on the ball. Dribbling, passing, vision. He's a complete attacking player.

[dinosutra]

Modric : "Making to World Cup final and being in 3rd spot are bigger achievements than winning Euro, where the third place team qualify and the champions failed to qualify for World Cup..."

[viscaelfutbol]

From a Madrid fan, putting rivalries aside Messi takes it for me. Greatest football player and person. Really humble and introverted human being. The GOAT 🐐 👑
