Greatest Of All Time (GOAT)

Willie2015:


We are comparin...Ronaldo and Messi...
2 top competitors....Ronaldo has transverses across leagues... ..
England, Spain and now Italy... Almost all the best league in the world...
Place Messi in a typical England team that play....
Kick and follow football.....
Or a Juventus team that play boring...
Defensive style......
U will understand that Messi is an average player .....
Outside the Barcelona tick -taka offensive style of play....
No wonder he could not achieve any other success outside Barca.
Cant even win a common Copa America...
Haba ..

I thought we are talking about playing in one club or changing club!!!

If a player flop while moving to another club, that is when people remember Messi irrespective of the level of that player...

Now that I give you Raul who is even similar with Messi being a Real Madrid acdemy product finest!! You change mouth again!!


The truth is Ronaldo must change club... He is a graduate from a low class academy!!!

If he doesn't change club, he will not win more than 2 Ballon d'ors!!!

He can't be at the top for long if he played all his football game for Sporting Lisbon...

He is destined to change from one top club to another...

He should just stop lying that he is seeking new challenge!!!


He is simply following his destiny by seeking greener pastures like any Sporting Lisbon product will do!!!

Only Raul has a career pattern comparable with Messi but he failed... Despite playing with better teammates, he could not win any Ballon d'ors as the Real Madrid academy finest ever!!!

If winning Ballon d'or as a club academy finest is easy, just ask Raul!!!

Messi is the greatest player in history. Very cool and calm player unlike the noisy, proud and arrogant Ronaldo

itsme01:



undisputed champion of the game of Football... if he retires from active football he would definitely make a great coach


.

Great players don't make good coaches, messi won't be an exception.

Was Ronaldo unaware of the "low-scoring" character of Juventus? So what is the point? Stop bringing it up. Your last sentence though. Nobody is here to make you believe. We all want to achieve success in different ways, so if you wanna compare at all, it has to be their successes, even though i don't support this, A lot of factors can play a role in success, which includes your environment. But honestly, i don't even think you really understand some of the arguments you have put forth. What does it mean to break past achievements? Doesn't it mean the setting of new records? Your explanation of the reason why he doesn't make front page as frequently as possible is therefore invalid. I could also argue that hopping from one host to another like some prostitute is the reason why Ronaldo makes front page more frequently. Who doesn't want free goods? Or perhaps he believes he just cannot match Messi, so perhaps hopping around will help him make a case.

suzzyboss:
Lol Messi can't make much or new achievement , he is only breaking the past ones(easy ones) that's why he doesn't make front pages like Ronaldo.. To me he is a stagnant sportsman he doesn't explore.. That's why I like my guy ororo.. If Ronaldo had stayed in Real Madrid we would have collected the last world best but he saw no fun in repeating awards and he isn't scared about the future challenges.. So he left real Madrid ( he didn't die) and he is still breaking records or do you think it is easy to score for Juventus.. Check their history they don't score much ,with all those their stuck stuck midfielders and defenders. To me Ronaldo is the best the only reason that will make me believe Messi is if he leaves barca and like Ronaldo and still perform well..

jaxxy:



Messi isn’t a good as he used to be bt Ronaldo is as good as he’s ever been and increasing.

Sorry Man but you're crazily dumb.

A six-time balloon d'Or winner isn't as good as he used to be?

The first footballer to win sportsman of the year award isn't as good as he used to be?

The highest playing, scoring, passing playmaker isn't as good as he used to be?

The GREATEST OF ALL TIME isn't as good as he used to be?

Where are you from?

Ustec:

Great players don't make good coaches, messi won't be an exception.

Stop spewing thrash. There hasn't been any player better than Messi and until he fails as a coach... You are not allowed to write such libel.

jayson87:
Things that were overlooked by nairalabd MODs about Messi that never made frontpage.

1. Messi becomes first footballer in history to win sportsman of the year

2. Highest career hattricks 48 annd counting, surpassing Ronaldo's 47

3. Magnificent 4 goal haul against Eibar, if ronaldo had achieved this feat this weekend, frontpage will have been boiling with Ronaldo the Goat

Goat for scoring only goals. Football is not complete

[/i][i][/i][i]

Leo Messi, the first player ever in the history of Football to reach goal contributions.
Goals + Assists

GOAT FOR REAL

suzzyboss:

Why didn't Messi leave too when he had issues with the coach.. Do you think it takes only salary increment to leave a club

Let's not argue Messi is Barcelona. They do everything in Barca to please Messi. They even use Messi's name to campaign for club presidential elections. Because of Messi dey relocated a whole airport because it's close to his House.

How much honor do you want? Ronaldo said it himself that Perez didn't value him that's why he left. For Ronaldo to have spent 10 yrs in Madrid it means he's willing to retire there. Perez treatment pushed him out. Ronaldo envy the treatment Messi gets in Barcelona unfortunately the only club that can honor him like that it's ManU but he left them to upgrade his CV. Allow Messi enjoy the fruit of his Loyalty stop forcing him to move.

Fake, fake ,fake ...

Bunch of unofficial goals!!!

Do you want me to spill unofficial goals here??

Let's go

Josef Bican: 2500 goals

Arthur Friedrich: 1359 goals..

Should I continue??


These are unofiicial goals...


FIFA has corrected most of the purported golas scored by Pele and his likes ....

The official goals of Pele is 767,. Romario: 772,. Josef Bican: 805 goals!!!

Stop misinforming the public!!!!

career goals!

ThierryJay:
See performance. Pls wake me up when CR7 achieve this kind of performance in a single match. Just look at the sheer quality of the goals, something penaldo can never match. All his hattricks, na penalty and tap-ins. Nothing ingenious like Messi's output.

Messi has always been more than just goals. I have always said this. The goals are just the icing on the cake. It's the play, the dribble, that feint, the mesmerizing sprint, the subtle pass, nutmeg, the slalom, the precision, unparalleled vision, name it! That's what we are talking about. That's what we got with breathtaking Ronaldinho even though Eto'o was scoring more goals; with Zidane even though Raul was scoring more goals. That's pure football artistry which sadly is what CR7 fans can never understand.

The above notwithstanding, please note this below:

Messi!

One club champ and still a legend

None of our business

One club champ that terrorised top epl clubs and europe

Yes we Know but let him come to EPL if he's that good. Until then he's just a one club champ

Kano pillars for a new "challenge "
That's how hidden hazard went for his own and is now doing medical housemanship in spain

Sometimes I wish I could be dis savageous

Lol you too bad which one be assistant goat in Turin.

that arrogant goat that has no Horn

eni4real:
What is weird is that, Nairaland MODs don't post Messi's excellent achievement on the first page!!!

They prefer the Dubai d'or winner!!!!

Levels!!!

I guess you don't follow GOAL on facebook and see how they lick his feet or whenever Barça wins but hardly say shit whenever it's the other way around

Pele and Zidane have also been awarded the award before Messi

Pele
Maradona
Ronaldinho
Ronaldo
Zidane

Better footballers than Messi... "Footballing skills and techniques only "

Davida33:
RONALDO IS THE KING OF FOOTBALL

Messi is the god of football. If you are easily impressed by tap-ins and penalties, you have a low standard for excellence. Messi mesmerizes defences and has on countless occasions produced pure magic that no one on the pitch can fathom. Messi plays football like Picasso status artistic legend. Ronaldo scores goals like a programmed photocopying machine. Tap in, header, penalty, repeat.
Ronaldo's leg, head, media machinery and paparazzi cannot measure up to the OUTSIDE of MESSI'S LEFT FOOT.

Bros ronaldo has around 55 hatrick u nor dey up to date.

Krasid:
Of course, he will use a team called eba to shine, but when push comes to shove in the UCL, he hides. One team merchant. #NotmyGOAT

How market. You were talking of wrapping up la liga like eba two weeks ago
How times change
You finally found your voice here on hating messi

you said it all...I am shocked at how the standards for measuring good football just got boxed up in goal scoring alone...

Messi gives you what your soccer is...I remember when football was a show of brilliance, dribbling, spectacular assists and to add to it goal scoring..how many goals did zidane score or even ronaldinho??. But we always looked forward when they have to play a match..

Recent football watchers have all gone mad with just goal scoring..

Messi is all football can ever be...even his last goal against eiber tells you he is special..

Yes I remember how pele won epl and la liga
To be considered a legend

And for your info cr7 left madrid cause his new demands were not met. Stop selling lies to dumbos.

its very bad...too bad...they are part of the media crisis in the world today

cr7lomo:



These foolish fans keep on creating baseless awards for this guy like these things dint used to happen in football b4... If it's not assists, it's dribble , now goal contribution...stupid stupid awards ... Goals and appearances ( caps) have always been major honours in football... I hv never heard of assists and contributions till these Messi minions started forcing it

Yea messi asked fifa to start recording assists in 1994 while washing dishes in spain

FuckThaMod:

Your life concerning football revolves around Ronaldo.. Why can't you love your messi without always involving the GOAT? I've never seen a football comment from you that didn't include the real GOAT. Obsession kills o.

Ps: Even if in a season CR7 scores just 1 goal from a spotkick and messi scores 1 million beautiful goals, CR7 is still the greatest. Tested and trusted in different Leagues.
If you messi wankers can't live with others loving and preferring CR7 then go and drink sniper!

well for your info messi has won the world best award 6 freaking times..how can you deal with that??
