This in fact is tedious and is the definition of murder with words, Messi will go down as the second best players of this generation and that is a great feat in general so hats off too him.
The most wrong statement in redcafe history
Compare the quotes and comments and who says them about Messi vs Ronaldo and Messi wins by a LANDSLIDE. It’s not even close. Hell, even more of ronaldo’s formerTeammates like that obey and di Maria say Messi is better. This subject was already brought up before and the quotes other footballers and managers had about Messi was significantly better than Ronaldo’s
And big whoop, Ronaldo went to the biggest team in Italy who had won the league 8 years in a row and managed to get them their lowest trophy haul in nearly a decade. He also only won la Liga a mere two times out of 9 although obviously his CL record is stellar.
You put Messi on the best team in other countries like a city or Juventus and he’d be doing the same thing if not better.
And Portugal sans Ronaldo are a better well rounded team than Argentina without Messi
Compare those respective teams without Ronaldo and Messi and you’ll see Portugal has the much better record.
Ronaldo has historically had the massive luxury of not even needing to score in a final and his teams still win. Messi barely had that.
