Krasid:
We are talking about 'goalscoring'.What does Messi winning 4 consecutive golden balls have to do with 'consecutive goalscoring'.No, I am not saying Messi has not been consistent.I am saying he has not been consistent in terms of goalscoring compared to CR7.I based my argument based on Ronaldo's consistency over the last 5 seasons in terms of goalscoring, which makes your stat about Messi having 32 career goals behind CR7 baseless and irrelevant. Note :All records I listed were goals related.

If you were to rate Cristiano Ronaldo based on goalscoring alone, he's a fantastic finisher but not even the best at that if you look at the conversion rate! Finishing requires a lot of composure, sometimes a lot of power. Kudos to him for displaying those qualities regularly.

But it doesn't change the fact that he fills up his tally against low ranking teams and when the big matches come, he goes AWOL. He scored five against Espanyol, nice. I hope he does the same against the likes of Atletico, Bilbao and the big teams in the UCL. Sometimes Ronaldo reminds me of Chelsea. They bully the small teams and then get schooled by their fellow big teams.

But does Messi have 50 goals in five consecutive seasons? Does Messi have 30+ league goals for 5 consecutive seasons? Does Messi have 10+ UCL goals for 4 consecutive seasons? Does Messi have 50+ goals in a year for 5 consecutive seasons? Keyword :Consecutive.Ronaldo's consistency in terms of goalscoring makes him the greatest ever in that department.Not even the the great Pele with his 750+ official goals could match Ronaldo's consistency in terms of goalscoring at a certain period of time.Whether the team plays well or not, Ronaldo will score goals.

Yes.He is already the 3rd all time topscorer in clasico history and holds the record for consecutive clasicos scored in. http://en.wikipedia.com/wiki/El_Clasico

Just a goalscorer? No chelsea player past, present, future is bigger than Ronaldo.Ronaldo 2 UCL titles, Chelsea 1 UCL title.Quite an achievement for 'just a goalscorer'.

God will bless you bruv.

You know the silly excuse his fanboys console themselves with? They always say people hate Ronaldo because he is handsome. Abeg, Neymar no fine? Hamez Rodriguez no fine? Pique no fine? Why people no hate those ones too?

Some others would say they hate him cause he is successful. Is Messi not successful? Is Neymar not successful?

And when some of these legends speak, and for some who plan their 5-aside teams or the standard 11 dream team players, without Ronaldo in it (which has been the case thus far, bar one person), they say its because these legends are just biased and envious of Ronaldo.

Is it a conincident that the people (players or coaches alike, aside fanboys) who rate Ronaldo ahead of Messi are either present or former team mates of his, Portugal nationals and/or Real Madrid players (present and past)?

The argument was about who the greatest goalscorer ever is.I said CR7 based on his unmatched consistency in terms of goalscoring.I only listed teams CR has scored most against to counter his point about CR7 only scoring against small teams.Tell me why Messi is the greatest goalscorer ever.

IF MESSI AIN'T D GREATEST GOALSCORER EVER,IT DEFINITELY ISNT RONALDO

I picked Ronaldo as the greatest goalscorer ever based on his consistency in terms of goalscoring.Name another footballer more consistent than Ronaldo in scoring goals.Then I would agree that he isn't the greatest in that department.Simple.No need to come here with your career goal/game ratio because I didn't use that as the bases for my argument.

Mourinholic:

It's no news that Chelsea tend to sit back and rely on counters against big teams, and sometimes they get away with it with a narrow win or draw. That's what I meant.

Cristiano Ronaldo Greatest Goalscorer In History:

Doesn't have 91 goals in a year
Doesn't have 73 goals in a season
Doesn't have 50 goals in a la liga season.

Stats since Cristiano joined Real Madrid(La Liga+ UCL):

Goals-

CR7: 287 (1803 shots taken)
Messi: 294 (1349 shots taken)

Goals from weak foot-

CR7: 47
Messi: 51

Goals from outside box-

CR7-43
Messi-45

Note: Here, I'm not even taking into account assists, chances created, and dribbles because Cristiano doesn't even come close to Messi and would be a pointless comparison.
