Do you think Dwight Yorke was a better player than Shearer?Fat Ronaldo’s career achievements are very similar to someone like Klose’s, and not at all on the same level as Cristiano’s.
R9 and Klose both have 2 league titles, 0 CL wins, 1 WC win (fatty played 0 minutes in 1994), were WC silver medalists and WC top scorers. In fact Klose has more WC goals in total.
When you shave off the myth, he’s just a Klose with stepovers.
Good example why you shouldn't rate players only based on career achievments.Fat Ronaldo’s career achievements are very similar to someone like Klose’s, and not at all on the same level as Cristiano’s.

He really couldn't. Nobody can or could do what Ronaldo did when he was young. Unrivalled potential. The guy was the definition of a prodigy.Even in that case, think of what a peak CR7 could do. Everything the Brazilian could do and more.
The face that you think he was a better dribbler than Messi is proof hes being romanticized. Im a Cr7 fan but Brazillian Ronaldo having better dribbling than Messi is ridiculous.He really couldn't. Nobody can or could do what Ronaldo did when he was young. Unrivalled potential. The guy was the definition of a prodigy.
I mean, he has a fair claim on being the best dribbler ever, the best technician ever, the fastest ever, the best finisher ever and on top of that he's comfortably worldclass in terms of strength, balance, long shots and passing. Really can't see anyone rivalling his skill set, not even Messi. You can maybe say the Argentinian had a slightly higher peak because he had more time to improve his decision making etc. but in terms of raw ability, Ronaldo truly was a phenomenon.
Oh boy, is the thread made to summon cal like the bat signal?
That’s just not true at all though. You can’t limit the service Ronaldo gets because of the way he plays, I have never seen any other player make it so easy for his team to create chances for them. Just look at the way Juventus plays and how little service he gets.Fenomeno was unstoppable at his peak, often playing for less cohesive set ups and even very limited cast (Inter).
If you limit the service Cristiano gets you can neutralize him. Fenomeno was a one man army. Give him the ball and he attacked like a whole frontline.
I think you've never really seen him play then. You can argue either way but it sure as hell isn't ridiculous, regardless of who you see slightly ahead.The face that you think he was a better dribbler than Messi is proof hes being romanticized.

How is Fenomeno unstoppable, when he only had one season above 40 goals in his whole career? And I imagine CRonaldo has more assists, tooFenomeno was unstoppable at his peak, often playing for less cohesive set ups and even very limited cast (Inter). He was unplayable in a Seria A which was the best league in history - stacked up with talent, especially defensive one.
He made a mockery of defenders like Maldini, Nesta, Cannavaro at their peak.

I've seen him play. A monster of a dribbler but Messi can take on teams with his dribbling like Brazilian Ronaldo never could have. To me personally it's a ridiculous opinion so we'd have to disagree but if anyone puts him above Messi in any category, that's wrong for me but to put him above Messi in dribbling ? I don't even understand how you can make an argument for that.I think you've never really seen him play then.

I haven't said that Ronaldo was better by the way. Can't bring myself to a decision.
ThisCristiano for both and it's not even close
Could Ronaldo score a free kick like CR7 did. Could Ronaldo even go for a Bicycle kick like CR7. Was Ronaldo a better header than CR7 at his peak? Did Ronalod have better long shots than CR7 at his peak? Did he even ever show the same level of consistency?Ability - Fat Ronaldo
Stats - CR
Because he's a childhood icon for many here and the myth that he was some unplayable force with zero weaknesses just gets propelled more and more. There's no doubt he's one of the all time greats but this debate belongs in 2010 or 2011. Now it's disrespectful to Messi and Ronaldo to even mention him alongside them.How is Fenomeno unstoppable, when he only had one season above 40 goals in his whole career? And I imagine CRonaldo has more assists, too
Next, Klose the best player ever due to being all time WC top scorerHe won it in 2002 as the top goal scorer. Won the Golden Ball at the 1998 WC. I just think there's a case to be made that these accomplishments outweigh what C.Ronaldo has done.
Cristiano Ronaldo is better than Pele wasCareer wise of course not. But you can't judge a players tally in 2019 with someone who was effectively ruined by injury 20 years earlier, the game was different. Even Pele doesn't match Cristiano's Madrid record but you wont find anyone arguing he was better than that Brazilian.
WelcomeThis
Fat Ronaldo and it's not even close.
Ok thenCristiano Ronaldo is better than Pele was
Both Cristiano and Messi are better than Pele.Ok then
Which Ronaldo are you talking about?Ronaldo was the most athletic player I've ever seen, considering all sports. But he was also one of the most technical players, with the bonus of entertainment and flair. I don't see how you improve that... unless you give him wings or something.
