these guys av tried alot for football and deserve more respect that they are getting bcox dominating for over a decade isn't easy.. both have won 9 UCL cups and are the top scorers in d competition and i still think that one of them can still win d UCL maybe if any of them joins a more serious club like cr7 to.PSG or messi to city... you can say its d end of an era but I still think dey both have 3-4yrs to play European football bcoz i haven't seen any other player for now dt is ready to chase these aliens off the stage.. even at such age their clubs are still over depending on them and they are still giving opponents n goalkeepers sleepless nites... lets enjoy them for some time jhare.. 10 Likes |

I no just know why UCL dey use h2h cos if na goal difference dem use and we catch Porto You know now. But truth be told juventus shouldn't have signed Mr champions League. He won't even win the league for them this season. But at least they've got a cup final against Atalanta. 1 Like |

To be candid, Messi and CR7's consistency at the top top level since 2007-2008 has been staggering. Since that time, only Arjen Robben, Lewandoski, and Luis Suarez have had a semblance of top-level consistency for a lengthy time but it's still far from that of Messi and CR7. Prior to Messi - CR7 era, it was an outstanding feat for the best attackers to be in their prime for 6 - 8 years i.e Ronaldo De Lima, Henry, Eto'o, Owen, Raul, Shevchenko etc. Both players are truly a special exclusive breed of footballers in the current generation. But moving on from the collabo talk up there, currently, Messi is still way ahead of CR7 as a player. The stark difference was laid to bare over the 2 legs of the UCL second round ties for both players. 20 Likes |

Of all the teams available to go he chose Juventus all in the name of taking up challenge to shame Messi.. I don't see how Messi would go to any of the top european league and not win the league and score goals.. Jumping ship is not the same as taking challenge 5 Likes 1 Share |

Where was he when they loaded them 4.1... he had a terrible campaign this year to b honest...way below expectations... 5 goals of which 4 whr penalties... so remove the penalties and he wud hv only 1 goal, a consolation... 14 Likes 1 Share |

Kingcalls: Balderdash. Please compare like with like, what they both delivered at the same time of their matches since Ronaldo went to Juve. Compare Ronaldo's performance against Ajax with Messi's performance against Man Utd Compare Ronaldo vs Lyon with Messi vs Napoli Compare Ronaldo vs 10-man Porto with Messi vs PSG The superiority of Messi's overall individual performance in the above match-ups is unquestionable, except of course for those who are ignoramuses in football. 14 Likes 1 Share |

Kingcalls: Hmm, almost a fair point from you, but then I remember that when the comparison started in 2007 and a prime Ronaldo initially had the edge, no one put up a defence of Messi saying he was 2 and a half years younger and therefore still immature. In the Man U vs Barca matches, the comparisons were straight head-on between the two with no regards for age (Messi was 19 and Ronaldo was 22). It is therefore inevitable that the same narrative would be maintained throughout and any attempt to shift goalposts resisted! Are people still not also comparing Ibrahimovic and Ronaldo in the Serie A despite Zlatan being 3 years older? 10 Likes |
Re: Messi & Ronaldo Are Both Out Of The UCL Quarterfinals: First Time In 16 Years by ThierryJay: 9:59am On Mar 11, 2021 |
Kingcalls: Comparison is best done at the same time they played the matches. Why will I be comparing someone's performance in 2018 with another's performance in 2021? Is it Messi's fault that he dragged his team to qualification when Ronaldo was being eliminated? Or you think if he had not scored all those goals or assisted against Man Utd and Napoli, Barca would have qualified? Immediately after CR vs Atletico game, Messi himself had a super game against Lyon where he delivered 2 goals and 2 assists to put Barca through the tie. Without that input Barca would have been eliminated as well. 4 Likes 1 Share |
