aside scoring goals , what can Ronaldo do ?

He assists (2nd highest in the world), he dribbles (not as much as Messi, I agree but if you say he doesn’t dribble, you’re daft), he adds actual skills to his footballing game. Just because you people prefer Messi doesn’t mean you should be lying against Ronaldo. You guys would have the world believe Ronaldo doesn’t assist yet he has more assists than Xavi and Iniesta.

Jokerman:


R9
Zizou
Maradona
Pele

Inferior players?? Please what has Messi won that those player haven't won (individual and collectively)

El fenomeno did not win champions league!


There is no way zidane can be rated above MESSIX , unless the rating was conducted by a joker.

A one month tournament?

I go with champions league

Lol... World cup overrated because your Messi never win am.. lol.. uefalona fans thoughts..

World cup is the biggest footballing event oga...

UCL is just like caf champions league and Copa liberatodores

Jokerman:

Pele

Inferior players?? Please what has Messi won that those player haven't won (individual and collectively)

R9 is in the same level as Messi... Injury limited him tho!!
Zizou is different from Messi!! He has best teammates in the National team tho

Maradona is a one tournament wonder!!! He got carried in the World cup final tho.. His teammates scored 3 goals when he was heavily marked in the final...

Pele has best team in history. A team that could win the World cup in 1962 without him!!!

He played with the greatest team in the history of World cup too in 1970... Pele never won the World cup alone!!
If Pele is as great as he always claim, I expect him to win 3 World cup Golden ball!!! To prove that he is the best in all the World cups that he won!!!

It is easy to hide under team Trophies tho...


Drogba has no international trophy!!!

Are we saying Muller is greater than Drogba

safarigirl:
Wow, you mean Kaka picked his fellow South American over an European he briefly played club football with?

Aunty, what do you know about football? Go and sit down. We are not talking Telenovela here.

God bless Kaka for his honesty. A true Christian.

I'm not rating zidane above Messi... Buh calling them inferior... Or do you think if Messi and Ronaldo played in Zidane/El fenomeno era, they'd have up to 3 ballondors??

Sambaby7640:
So messi is just talented and not working hard abi? I hate it when people say Messi is just talented as if he doesn't work really hard to stay at the top.If it was just only talent then Ronaldinho should have stayed at the top really longer than he did.

So you didn't see the phrase 'best at'?

Messi can win 4 Consecutive Ballon d'or if he played in their era provided he has the quality of teammates that R9 and Zizou had for club and Country!!!

Prove me wrong..
He is a one tournament wonder!!!

What make him difficult to downplay is that he is the best Individual player in the history of World cup !!!
That is all he has to offer....

His other achievements not good enough to.compete with greatness!!!

But are we saying Thomas Muller is greater than Eto'o because of the World cup??

no , i go with champions league. i'm not making any excuse for messi.

however , as far as world cup is concerned messi has a silva medal. cr7 don't have such

chiboy1116:
nah I saw Ronaldo play , he wasn't a playmaker even then , so............ But he was more enjoyable then though , Ronaldo just changed his game when he focused on scoring goals but later on he couldn't get out of it cause it kinda stocked with him , dude can't even dribble again .

After he suffered a knee injury shortly before the 2014 world cup, he lost most of his dribbling ability.

Maradona is not great now... Abi?

God created Messi and gave him a gift, Football Talent.
He created Ronaldo and gave him nothing of such, Ronaldo had to work his way to the top.
Yes, I do agree that Messi is better than Ronaldo but it is only because Messi have a Gift and Ronaldo does not have it.
If GOD has Given Ronaldo same Gift he gave Messi, I am very sure Messi will never ever in a billion years be Compared to Ronaldo.
that's why to me Ronaldo is a better player than Messi because he started from scratch and struggle, learnt, Practice put in extra efforts in doing different things to achieve what he has achieved today and I will forever be his fan for that.
many of us are like Ronaldo, we have to work extra hard to be at the level of that gifted boy in class and when we are able to win the best student 5 times then that is an achievement.
it shows with have fought with a gifted person and even when we don't win..we did alot of damage. So that is how I see this debate.

I agree Messi is better but he is only better because unlike Ronaldo he is gifted(He does things effortlessly) but Ronaldo need total Practice to do things many footballers like Messi and Ronaldinho will do so easy. if

Yes they're inferior.

If messi or cr7 were to have the same teammates zizou & r9 had , they will surely be world champion. Maybe even twice in a row.

R9 had players like ....


Cafu
Juliano belleti
Roberto carloz
Denilson
Juninho(freekick specialist)
Kaka
Ronaldinho
Rivaldo

in the 2002 world cup. They won all their matches.

are you telling me if messi or cr7 were to be in this starstudded team he won't the world cup?

Argentina 2010 world cup squad is enough to win world cup and Copa

SQUAD:
Goalkeepers: Sergio Romero, Mariano Andujar, Diego Pozo.

Defenders: Nicolas Otamendi, Martin Demichelis, Walter Samuel , Gabriel Heinze, Nicolas Burdisso, Ariel Garce, Clemente Rodriguez.

Midfielders: Jonas Gutierrez, Juan Sebastian Veron, Javier Mascherano, Angel Di Maria, Javier Pastore, Maxi Rodriguez, Mario Bolatti.

Forwards: Lionel Messi, Gonzalo Higuain, Carlos Tevez, Diego Milito, Sergio Aguero, Martin Palermo.

hisexcellency34:
Messi is an all-round player but Ronaldo is a goal-getter. Overall, I give it to Messi..that dude is just from another planet entirely

still he can't win a tea spoon for his country Argentina.

anigbajumo:
They all knw being the greatest player of all time is more than staying in the box waiting for tap in but to score incredible goals and assists not just assists by crossing the ball but create chances from middle with mid blowing dribble in that makes ur opponent looks like a fool.

The S.I unit of football is Leo,I knw some fool will say he should leave Barca but av forgotten leo has been playing with different players and up to 7 different coaches with different tactical football approach.

No player ever has won playmaker award meant for midfielders 4x and European Golden boots 4x meant for striker except messi,that alone tells u he is not just a tap in legend like the other guy,Pele and mardona do their magic in just 4_7 years,Leo is still sitting in the throne for almost 15 yrs now, absolutely the greatest player ever.

Shut up idiat..

I'm still waiting for Messi to win a tea spoon for his country.. After having the best squad in his team..

He's gonna retire again as usual.. I hope you saw what Ronaldo did in Spain in just 438 apps.. 451 goals, which player has a better stats in Spain than that? is Messi close?? think of if he started in Spain thats will filled with mediocre teams... No wonder no other team has won UCL in Spain except Madrid and Barca.. others are just average.. lol..

jaxxy:


If Messi has all this yet a team hes in under performs even with Suarez and grieznann. Unless Messi plays with the best besides him he is useless to a team. With all u mention his impact on the team is very little with average players.

Rolando will bring an average team to his playing level. He is more than he is given credit for. If messi is a beast Ronaldo is a Monster on the pitch. He is the Real Goat!

....like he did in the last champions league and his doing now in Italy and he did wen barca was thrashing Madrid anyhow years back...pls just stop ..all round qualities that makes a footballer invincible Ronaldo if he comes to this world 10 times again can't beat messi.....just swallow the truth...even Ronaldo knows this but ofcourse u don't expect him to accept...but we the unbiased fans knw

OkpaNsukkaisBae:

WC is over rated,,, that's what you think cus your goat got no goals , assist record there not to talk of winning the WC, bros WC is the dream of every legend in the game

Don't let Liverpool hear this nonesense statement o! Barca might get another ass whooping pls. Messi can't handle it

Who blames the ref, coach, organisers, team mates, country and everybody else bt him for his failures again?? Yh The lil goat.

Stop mentioning inferior players !!
Messi is better than all of them.. They all hide under team Trophies!!!

What have they won individually??

Even Giroud has a World cup!!!

Does that make Giroud better than Aguero??

Mr, since messi doesn't have good stat or win the biggest tournament, you will say all these too suit yourself,,, new generation football fans,,,

eni4real:
World cup Golden ball is Messi's legacy in the World cup!!!

Cristiano has no World cup legacy tho!!

Except the 'oldest player to score a hatrick' against a Coachless Spain!!!

Cr7 never came to a Tournament without recording a goal, 2010 your best not a single goal

DrayZee:

Leave them to be talking rubbish.
A one-footed player who can’t head ball is who they call an all-rounder. Meanwhile Ronaldo who can do and has done everything imaginable in football, they say he doesn’t have talent. People that don’t watch football. All they know is insult.

No wonder Pele said he should never be compared to a player who has only one skill. Messi fans will tell me who knows football better between them and Pele.

....was maradon good with his head....pls answer cos una don start....a player that has sometimes been leading in goals....assist....chances created ....dribbles....goals ration...all over Europe and u are here comparing him with Ronaldo that has spent 80percent of his years staying upfront and scoring in the 18yard box...messi his the only player DAT can destroy from anywhere on the pitch and his passing accuracy is almost incomparable....Ronaldo even has a good eye for a pass and Nt a chance creator....I still don't understand y a sane football fan will pick messi over Ronaldo....mind u am a Chelsea fan and I ave every right to hate him cos he has destroyed my team a number of times ...but I hate been sentimental...no one is close to messi ...NO ONE

Jokerman:


Ronaldo has been in every team of the season from 2004.... Which is about 16 years from now... So not only Messi....

Incredible goals that can't win best goal award, even in his twisted little laliga

So Ronaldo only assists by crosses??

If ronaldo is a tap in legend, how come he has more assists than Xavi (playmaker award owner) or even Iniesta or ronaldinho

So because Xavi has more playmaker awards than zidane or ronaldinho or lampard, make Xavi better than them?

Ronaldo is the player with the most dribbles in a single match

Ronaldo is the player with the most assists in a single match -4 (shared with Pele )

Ronaldo is the player with the most assists in UCL, Madrid, Portugal, Euros competition

Ronaldo is the player with the most freekicks even not scoring for club in 2 years

Ronaldo scores different types of goals, tap in, scorpion kick, back heel goals, scissors kicks, long range shots, headers, placement, dribbling if goal keeper, weak foot chipping goals etc...

Apart from placement and chipping goals, what other kind of goals does Messi score??

RONALDO IS MORE THAN THE GREATEST GOAL SCORER EVER...

HE IS ALSO A PROVIDER OF GOALS AND A SKILLFULL DRIBBLER

...can u kindly show or us a stat where Ronaldo ever won highest number of assist in a season ....tanks

unknown names everywhere.

average players playing for average european/argentina clubsides.


the only quality i see is di maria & milito can be considered as elite player in that squad.

there's this saying in football that ...

"defenders wins a championship , attackers wins a final"

there's no world class defender in that squad. don't know why the druglord maradona didn't pick JAVIER ZANETTI. Dude is a living legend of the game.
