Both Messi and Ronaldo have a lot of attempts. I wonder how effective Juninho, Mihajlovic etc. were in comparison.
Ronaldo being mentioned in this thread is boderline a joke, isn't it? He always takes them despite ballooning 95% into row Z.
Scored a cracker against David James a decade ago to be fair.
These are Premier League stats form a couple of years ago, Ronaldo's % may have improved in Spain.
