There is no where in the interview where he chose one over one tho... he simply said Messi was the best.

Both of these guys are really best material for me.. Ronaldo is like that student who 'jacks' overnight just to have an A and top everybody in math. I think he overdoes too much.. Messi is like that gifted student who doesn't even necessarily read but still tops everyone in class.

I would also go for Messi tho..🤔
baba na lie... Even on d pitch Messi works harder than Ronaldo.... Messi plays from d midfield and Ronaldo camps in d box waiting for tapins or easy goals.... Make una die all dis talks of hardwork...messi is more hardworking than Ronaldo

That rests the matter!

“Not coachable”. That means God packaged Messi completely. A bundle of gift and talent. An absolute player.

No rival.

Handsome coach.

As for Messi, he had something extra, other players didn't have. Messi had a few extra layers of football genius he could tap into that no other person could. There are some times you'd see Messi all crowded and seemingly cornered by some opposition players in a match. And like a miracle, you still see him come out of such tight spots with the ball. Like a very very smooth criminal.

He has also scored a number of vital and clutch goals during his career but there is one that comes out top in my head: against ac milan in 2013.
Barca had been beaten 2-0 in the first leg and were on edge. Messi scored a goal that no one saw coming. He just received the ball from either iniesta or xavi; he controlled the speedy ball and shot into the top corner. It was too fast; he was too deadly.

Since that day, I confirmed that Messi is not a normal person.

The bolded, What do you understand by “he was the best in our generation?”

At this age and time, nobody should be using “Ronaldo work hard(er)” to score points.

Messi is industrious cos talent is not enough. It’s one thing to be talented but maximizing your talent to reach your full potential is a different thing entirely.

If it wasn’t for hard work, his career would have been like Neymar and Hazard.

To be regarded as an elite free kick taker, Messi must have invested so much time and energy in practice cos he wasn’t really good at it when he started.

And also, it requires hard work to maintain standard for many years.

Back to your student analogy, gifted student reads. The major difference is, they have deeper understanding of a topic/course.

I hate this comparison.
For me is degrading on Lionel.
Messi is on different level to Ronaldo football wise and they shouldn't be compared.

Forget PR, if after watching these two guys for over a decade and you still think Ronaldo is even in the same sentence with Lionel, then you should stick to golf

the God of football only begotten son is messi... the human of football is cr7...so be no hater...nobody can touch them in their class..he deserves his maximum respects...go to he'll and back...no one will match them

why are people always using this analogy in football about ronaldo...that simply because messi got the touch of God in playing football....that we should disregard all ronaldo achievements...man is a machine...and no one comes close to him either

sir alex ferguson once said working hard hard is a talent and not everyone is gifted, which ever way one take to achieve greatness should not be discounted

You have it summed up!

If a football mind is sane and honest, this comparison isn't even a thing. They are miles apart, if we're talking about football.

Don’t get it twisted! The question is which “ the one player who he wished he had signed”

So answer can’t not be Ronaldo, because he coached him. Definitely it’s Messi he would wished to coach not Ronaldo
Mourinho
so what do you understand by "in our generation, he was the best"?

It's not a coincidence that most, if not all, of Ronaldo's ex-teammates and coaches always recognize Messi as the best.

It should be common knowledge unless you're blind, because comparing Messi to that fraud should be a punishable offense. There's literally nothing to compare, aside from physical appearance.

Messi is thousands of miles ahead of the desert trash.Even José, his fellow countryman, I bet the weyreh will unfollow him.

Mr. 'I don't chase records,' but trophies elude him.".

There is no place for argument. Lionel Messi is the greatest player of all time.

Anyone saying something else is just a time waster or has no knowledge of the game!

All these clowns talking about talent and hardwork
CR7 enjoys a robust social life and is still banging
Messi has always been football focused something like Eminem in music
If Messi lived like Ronaldo he would have been extinguished like Ronaldinho
Messi is good, Ronaldo good
Ronaldinho is the best

You must be delusional... If the politics in football never existed you wouldn't have this much disrespect for CR7... Great young footballers actively playing knows how great the name CR7 sounds but u hiding behind your techno P5 will come online and spill shit...
