nah there is a lot of debate to be had about that nothing makes him clear the world cup wont mean anyting if Portugal win the euros this year think about it if that happens two euros and 2 more UCLS than Messi surely do negate the World Cup effect. Tbf at the end of the day both gave each other a hard time no one ever dominated each other only stupid fcks say shit like debate is over.
He's a Arsenal fan. Of course. If support or a pro plays for Arsenal, Man Shitty or Liverpool. They all are forced to say Messi. Because of pep and Klopp hates Madrid. I watched a video. Of 100 players Pro and ex pros. And Messi won by like 10. But all of Messis was current and ex teammates and every single player from those 3 clubs. Ronaldo was the same. But mainly Brazilians, Serbians, Swiss, Germans... etc what I'm saying most of Europe is for Cristiano. And Africa, Asia, Middle East now 100%. You can't just say 'world Cup.' Cause Cristiano has more ucls, ucl goals & ASSISTS. Goals in general. At United was a better dribbler, FKs, Pens. Sacrificed all that to become a record breaker and just wanted goals. And as a Madridsta don't mind. Since he took the spotlight off of the team for bad performances and put more pressure on himself as a real man does.... So Again Cristiano won the World. And if you can't see that. You're just stupid. Can't fix stupid.
@@jiahaogoh2822 I'm sorry i'm a Ronaldo fan but i love Messi too but just bcs he won a wc doesn't mean he is clear its a team trophy messi didn't win it by himself what did he do other than scoring penalties every match and also if emiliano wasn't there messi would not have a wc now , that last minute save was incredible an we all know that ballond'or is just joke now like messi is even being nominated for 2024 ballond'or " I'm there like what did he even do he is in the MLS " .Also he won fifa the best award two times in 23 and 24 , a ballond'or , a laures best sportsman award just bcs he won the wc & being the best player of wc in 22 i swear to god no one has ever won this much awards just bcs they won a wc and in 23 he won it over a player like Haaland who is young and had a wonderful stats + treble + broke the premire leage goal record in a very young age And I'm not like other Ronaldo fans i also agree on the 2013 ballondor win by ronaldo being not deserved , but why is messi second for the award then ? why aren't you messi fans not pointing it out ? like its true that FIFA Prefers Messi and Ronaldo over other players Prime Messi >>>> Prime Ronaldo But Overall Ronaldo >>> Messi ( Messi hasn't hit the same after leaving barca and he never will. Now that he has has played in 3 leagues he was/is shit in 2 of them but ronaldo was no.1 in the respective periods for which he played in that leagues except laliga ( messi was the best ) and i'm not including awards bcs after that fifa the best win by messi in 2024 i think fifa is being biased , Ronaldo has more power , pace , physical , heading , no weak foot , penalty accuracy , skills , delivers in clutch , more stamina over Messi meanwhile Messi only has dribbling , passing and freekick accuracy over Ronaldo Like c'mon Ronaldo as a player is so clear than messi the man is 39 he just scored a hat-trick yesterday ( 2 of them are freekicks ) i get it its in camel league , shawarma league Blah Blah but when was the last time messi scored a hattrick let me think oh in the international friendlies 😄 from my knowledge he never scored a hat-trick in MLS Or Uber eats league am i right ?

@@Besayrenembarrassing statement ngl. Messi is easily 1st, Ronaldo if we’re being serious is no higher than 3rd because of his career. He does stepovers, headers, and shoots with power.
There is Only one G.O.A.T that's Messi 🐐👑 ... the only thing ronaldo has over messi is goals...that too cos he played twice the amount of games...!! in every other stats or trophies messi sweeps..!! those who are still debating are people who are sad & in denial !! having someone as your favourite player & and completing football and getting the goat status....is two different things... P.S to the ronaldo fans who replies....trashing messi and saying ronaldo is goat....we get that you are hurting inside...but it's okay...life will get better mate !! cheer up 👍
It's not that easy to say one is better than the other IMO, Ronaldo has played at different clubs and switched a lot compared to messi who stayed at Barcelona Euros is also a tougher competition than Copa america Stats wise, yeah messi clears, but it doesn't tell the full story
2:31 This is every ronaldo fan ever. Deep inside they know Messi is better but they seem to have some weird crush/fetish for Ronaldo and can't admit it.
Agreed bro but it's just their preference so chill. There is just something about Cristiano's personality that make people fall in love with him. I am a Messi fan by the way
@@farhannadeemahmedaiitj5323 his personality? You mean the personality which’ll throw their captain’s armband, be obsessed with some guy who is completing side quests, and still thinks they’re playing at the top? Yes boss, that “infectious” personality. Fucking all appalling.
Nope. That’s a false perception. Ronaldo scored 60 goals in 4 ucl that Real Madrid won. In big games and clutch moments it’s always Ronaldo . World Cup changed a lot of stuff
@@asrarfarooqui85 that was in madrid though They are expected to win UCLs as they always have a solid team solid backline and midfield and ofcourse the attack If he won UCLs with anyone other than madrid (who are the kings of UCL even before Ronaldo joined) then he would be considered GOAT by many It's like if you won la liga with madrid it would be "yeah whatever" but if you win la liga with a mid table team being the star player that would be hella more impressive
@@SuRu10116 yea so winning the la liga multiple times and using that to seperate messi and ronaldo at his time in spain should be considered a "yea whatever" for messi since he was playing for a barcelona super team. At least Ronaldo has gone to other leagues and excelled and won titles there.
@@MrHuskii1017 I mean Maldini hasn't gone to other leagues excelled and won trophies there He hasn't even gone to 2 leagues but he's considered the goat defender by people with ball knowledge but apparently it's different for Messi for some reason Most hated player of all time
@@SuRu10116 There's a difference between the GOAT of the sport and a great player for that position. Sergio Ramos is also considered a great defender for playing in one league but we are not talking about a position, rather the GOAT for the sport. That is why the likes of R9 are considered the GOAT of the sport for doing it in multiple leagues or Zidane
One is a great goal scorer who’s arguably the best goal scorer ever but has nothing else too his game anymore…the other is Messi who is arguably the greatest all rounder ever. There’s literally no debate here. It’s Messi.
@@Asad97654eh. Ronaldo is an amazing player but like Pique said, Messi is just slightly ahead of him overall. Players who have either played against or with both players said the same thing.
@@Asad97654 yeah I know and I’m saying otherwise. It’s obvious Messi is far ahead Ronaldo in being a playmaker, passing is obvious, but there are other aspects to the game that Messi beats Ronaldo in. They are at the same level but Messi is just slightly better.
@@Asad97654 I’m sorry but what is something Ronaldo can do that Messi can’t. Ronaldo has had a good amount of strikers on his team as well, Rooney, Bale, Benzema.
@@alex2187 saying ronaldo is just goal scorer is idiot opinion and people argue these day's 🤡 like ronaldo is completed player he has 283 assist and he is 3rd most assist player that's not lucky the thing is ronaldo had dribbling in man United and real madrid and then he become complete striker which is literally amazing when you see alot of ST players and they can't even close to ronaldo In other hand messi is playmaker and he has alot of goals 2 most goals in history and 1 most assist player in the world with 300+ assist 👏 which is amazing for me messi is clear from ronaldo but that doesn't mean ronaldo is bad it's just messi has alot of points in his side for example his play style is unique he has world cup more ratio goals which is impressive and more individual awards so that is what make messi unique but it's not bad to be second ronaldo is second best player in the world I see alot of people downgrade ronaldo these days and alot of retired players for example hazard these people are jealous just say messi is better but saying ronaldo is goal scorer when the guy was in his prime he was literally the best and did everything in football history
There was nevet a debate. It was KIDS and Media debate. Messi is the GOAT cause he's an Artist ,And overcame so many obstacles to gain all and being World Champion. 👑
Still harry does admit, "I may not even believe myself when I say it" so I think when they say Messi or Ronaldo, deep down all of the sidemen probably knows Messi is the greatest of all time but it´s kind of like when you support a team and become bias. If you grow up watching and being a Ronaldo fan you'll want to believe he is the greatest of all time. Same goes with Messi fans of course, but at the end of the day all FOOTBALL lovers can admit to the fact that Messi probably is the greatest to ever do it, without taking any sort of credit away from Ronaldo
more like the media and others r trying to force it down r throat .like he is given awards for absolutely doing nothing since 2019 while ronaldo is being denied everything from day 1 .2018 d'or ,cr7 desereved it ,2019,2021,2023 d'ors messi didnt deserve em .his world cup run is the most overrated thing in history like out of the last 5 they where the worst winners ever and it a team effort ,martinez and di maria was as important as messi most of the times more important .

If world cup makes him better then pele is miles ahead of him . If you want to be the greatest footballer u have to proof yourself in different leagues.
@@Knight_clause I don't agree with u bro u can call messi a better dribble then Ronaldo after he left Manchester United but overall not better Cristiano can do everything in football aspect dribble, passing, finishing, assist, speed, strength, list goes on. U have too accept it if u don't then maybe u are living in delusional 👍
@@SuRu10116yep. Ronaldo has 0 INTERNATIONAL PLAYER OF THE TOURNAMENT despite having most international goals. That should give clarity about the importance of most of his goals
I could use so many arguments to explain why Messi is clear of Ronaldo. Better passer, dribbler, chances created, individual achievements,goal to game ratio, outside the box shooter, free kicks,and just literally start and finish the plays all the way from other side of the pitch...but the fact that there are way more professional footballers and coaches that choose Messi (and they are experts obviously) says enough
That’s odd because half the stuff u stated favor Ronaldo: Ronaldo has better skills, more goals, better free kicks, outside the box shooter, etc. Messi played for Barcelona for 95% of his football career while Ronaldo kept his same level of talent in almost all the best European leagues he has played in. He’s also been in the game longer than Messi.
@winybiny I promise you you are incorrect and by the way I'm a madrid fan. Messi playing in Barca is not a reason to discredit him. Look up his stats against top Premier league teams I think he's got the best stats actually. Messi is much better at free kicks and outside the box throughout his career I can't believe you think otherwise to be honest. And better skills? He's been a good dribbler the first 5 years but after that he's actually been an average dribbler I promise you everyone knows this lol. And like I said, don't you trust experts opinions? Think, think why most of them which are unbiased have chosen Messi. You need to accept that they know more than you. You simply can't say "oh yeah it's fixed they're all biased or don't know what they're talking about"...they're experts of the game!
@@ThillyThauthageth I didn’t discredit Messi, I just gave the reasons why the argument used is flawed and why Ronaldo is better. The “experts” u are just normal ppl who also have an opinion. The reason the voice of those who say Messi is better seems much louder is because of the recent World Cup result, not because of Messi’s individual accomplishments compared to Ronaldo’s. If u believe Messi is better than fine, we agree to disagree.
@winybiny the arguments are not flawed actually what I said is correct however I have realised that the best way to prove that Messi is better isn't just by comparing stats which by the way yes Ronaldo wins in some but actually individually Messi has a lot more and there's nothing better to prove this than balon dor which only the last 2 were controversial. Best argument I think is that experts which I insist are professional footballers and coaches from around the world who know football more than fans (hopefully we can agree on this?) do mostly agree that Messi is better. If you take fanbase aside, every poll you see online, every ranking every aggregated opinion agrees that Messi is better and sorry but that's something that Ronaldo fans will have to accept. You can be a fan and still accept that Messi overall is a better footballer, and no this isn't Jordan vs LeBron debate there really is that much of a difference
Ronaldo has my respect cause he worked super hard to reach Messi' level and competed with him for many years but as they get older you can see Messi is still as skillful as he was 10 years ago whilst Ronaldo has lost to age when it comes to stamina and dribbling to the point where now he is a poacher in the Saudi League (that he still hasn't even won a trophy for) while Messi already gave Inter Miami their first trophy are leading their conference in 1st place whilst being a contributing factor in both goals, assists, chances created, etc. Messi the 🐐 But Ronaldo has my respect
@@SuRu10116 I agree but it's just annoying that most people think he is the goat only because he won the world cup. Also it's really unfair to say that Ronaldo is any less than a goat just because he hasn't won a world cup
@@farhannadeemahmedaiitj5323 yeah I get your point Most of the "new" fans who didn't witness cristiano and Messi rivalry at their peak tend to forget what Ronaldo did in his prime days. For Me both are goat's but Messi just edges it as I give watch factor a lot of priority in describing who's better Not saying Cristiano doesn't have the watch factor but Messi uff... You see him and you wonder how's he done that then
@@SuRu10116 exactly. Ronaldo will always be my favorite, but I have always said Messi is the GOAT. I hate how people wanna suck him off now only because of the WC. It’s a team sport, you think Messi, R9, or Pele could carry like Canada to a WC?
@@jp8410 agreed. These people are most probably gen z kids who see edits of Ronaldo or Messi and decide to choose one goat and hate on the other for no reason. Everyone with ball knowledge know in football there is Messi >=< Ronaldo then there is daylight then there are other players who played this beautiful game according to stats,trophies,awards and careers overall
The argument about the world cup is so stupid. Messi is playing for Argentina Ronaldo is playing for Portugal. I am portuguese and we do punch above our weigh but to use the fact that he won the world cup ( where he played shit in most games) with one of the best teams in the world as the deciding factor is an IQ test on its own
Messi is better at the end of their career Ronaldo fans know but they won't accept They'll divide opinions anyway for the things they have done Both are GOATs
Thinking that the only reason Messi is better than Ronaldo is the world Cup is just as dumb as think Ronaldo is better than Messi. Leo is so much better than Ronaldo with or without the stats and it's not even close.
Loved messi before and yeah skillfully and factually he is the goat , but now the feeling of supporting him is kinda faded away the same feeling which was there when he missed the penalty , idk why, maybe because his arc is complete now And for the same reason I feel more for Ronaldo now , l mean I would love to support him in his redemption for the trophy now, yk it feels good It feels like a good story ! So yes now I support ronaldo And in the future maybe someone else , who knows ?
Just because Messi won the world cup doesn’t make him the goat… because that will make mbappe the goat because he won the world cup at such a young age and came to final again with a hattrick… At the same time just because Ronaldo didn’t win world cup, he is not the Goat…. He is literally known as Mr UCL( the most difficult championship in the world) and the top goal scorer of all time… Both are the greatest players that that has ever entered the football world. Still debating on this is just cringe
@@aRonStoneX acting like certain trophies don't matter then you go for "how many UCL does Lewa have"🤡🤡. Ronaldo played for a stacked Madrid team during that period.

@@aRonStoneX PSG didn't have a Midfield they were playing teenagers when playing bayern💀 Still for PSG Messi has 71 goal contributions in 75 games despite mbappe being the main penalty taker Pretty good stats if you ask me especially at that age
Bro whats jj with his worldcup talking…we know messi is one of the goat but u cant say he is the goat because of a worldcup…giroud has a worldcup mate…and u gotta say no player has the ability to perform like ronaldo from the age 35+…not even messi…put some respect on his name..both of them are goats..respect them🐐
Let me explain this one..Messi was always in the goat convo with pele and maradona. We dont see cr7 usually in that convo. No, its not messi fans who created that debate. Messi was in that debate cuz of his abilities. But the thing is maradona and pele had a worldcup which was always used against messi to put him in the number 3 position behind the legends. People wanted messi to settle this. In the end he won a copa america and a world cup. Thats why people use the wc as an argument.
Maradona was never in the same bracket as messi and pele tbh,infact pelé and maradona don't even belong to the same generation,it was just a forced debate by argentines and in general football pundits,pelé and messi are in a league of their own,he was mostly known for his outrageous dribbling ability,yet there are many players who are better dribblers than him,jay jay okocha,garrincha, Ronaldinho,Eden hazard in his prime and messi himself aswell
Messi for sure no debate , media created this to make money , Ronaldo is not even close to Messi , great striker for sure but don’t compare to the Goat Messi
@@arjungiridhar638 that doesn’t matter cuz you need to remember who was benched and who was performing the most during the World Cup. Argentina is milking the heck out of messi while the Portugal players till today are just destroying Ronaldo despite his good form
Not sure if you know this little rule in football, if you get fouled inside the penalty area, guess what happens? It’s a penalty 😮😮😮 I know your mind is blown
jj just follows pr when ronaldo came back to united and was scoring goals most premier league fans said ronaldo is the goat (including jj) as soon as he leaves and messi wins the wc they all say messi is the goat This shows how bad their football knowledge is tbh
At the moment Messi is leading the goat debate and it will stay that way probably at the end of their careers But agreed the reason JJ has for Messi being the goat shows his ball knowledge is bad
More ucl , most goals , most int goals most ucl goals and assists . Most goals in a single ucl season 1and 2 . Most goals in ucl finals . 100 plus goals in 3 leagues . He has more records than Messi …

Ronaldo at 39 is still out performing a 36 year old Messi. They're both GOAT's, each has had better years than the other, but to pretend like one is vastly superior to the other is just stupid. Ronaldo will always be no.1 for me, but its obvious that they have both completely dominated football for the last 15 years and there's no one else who comes close to them.
For me it’s Messi I mean look who has the most Motm in the history of the game. The guy can drop a 10/10 without scoring or assisting, just from playmaking and dribbling past his opponents like cones.
The world cup argument is dumb as fuck. Argentina has always had a stacked roster of world class players. It was only a matter of time they won. Portugal tho??? Only Ronaldo, he can’t win WC by himself
I remember Ksi saying something about Ronaldo better because he could show who could stand the test of time, but now he says Messi is best because he won world cup

Overall Ronaldo >>> Messi ( Messi hasn't hit the same after leaving barca and he never will. Now that he has has played in 3 leagues he was/is shit in 2 of them but ronaldo was no.1 in the respective periods for which he played in that leagues except laliga ( messi was the best ) and i'm not including awards bcs after that fifa the best win by messi in 2024 i think fifa is being biased , Ronaldo has more power , pace , physical , heading , no weak foot , penalty accuracy , skills , delivers in clutch , more stamina over Messi meanwhile Messi only has dribbling , passing and freekick accuracy over Ronaldo Like c'mon Ronaldo as a player is so clear than messi the man is 39 he just scored a hat-trick yesterday ( 2 of them are freekicks ) i get it its in camel league , shawarma league Blah Blah but when was the last time messi scored a hattrick let me think oh in the international friendlies 😄 from my knowledge he never scored a hat-trick in MLS Or Uber eats league am i right ?

They are expected to win UCLs as they always have a solid team solid backline and midfield and ofcourse the attack

It's like if you won la liga with madrid it would be "yeah whatever" but if you win la liga with a mid table team being the star player that would be hella more impressive
@@SuRu10116 yea so winning the la liga multiple times and using that to seperate messi and ronaldo at his time in spain should be considered a "yea whatever" for messi since he was playing for a barcelona super team. At least Ronaldo has gone to other leagues and excelled and won titles there.

In other hand messi is playmaker and he has alot of goals 2 most goals in history and 1 most assist player in the world with 300+ assist 👏 which is amazing for me messi is clear from ronaldo but that doesn't mean ronaldo is bad it's just messi has alot of points in his side for example his play style is unique he has world cup more ratio goals which is impressive and more individual awards so that is what make messi unique but it's not bad to be second ronaldo is second best player in the world

Messi 🐐 greatest most complete player of all time
Littler looks a lot more relaxed on this than he did on happy hour
I could use so many arguments to explain why Messi is clear of Ronaldo. Better passer, dribbler, chances created, individual achievements,goal to game ratio, outside the box shooter, free kicks,and just literally start and finish the plays all the way from other side of the pitch...but the fact that there are way more professional footballers and coaches that choose Messi (and they are experts obviously) says enough
🤣🤣
That’s odd because half the stuff u stated favor Ronaldo: Ronaldo has better skills, more goals, better free kicks, outside the box shooter, etc. Messi played for Barcelona for 95% of his football career while Ronaldo kept his same level of talent in almost all the best European leagues he has played in. He’s also been in the game longer than Messi.
@winybiny I promise you you are incorrect and by the way I'm a madrid fan. Messi playing in Barca is not a reason to discredit him. Look up his stats against top Premier league teams I think he's got the best stats actually. Messi is much better at free kicks and outside the box throughout his career I can't believe you think otherwise to be honest. And better skills? He's been a good dribbler the first 5 years but after that he's actually been an average dribbler I promise you everyone knows this lol. And like I said, don't you trust experts opinions? Think, think why most of them which are unbiased have chosen Messi. You need to accept that they know more than you. You simply can't say "oh yeah it's fixed they're all biased or don't know what they're talking about"...they're experts of the game!
@@ThillyThauthageth I didn’t discredit Messi, I just gave the reasons why the argument used is flawed and why Ronaldo is better. The “experts” u are just normal ppl who also have an opinion. The reason the voice of those who say Messi is better seems much louder is because of the recent World Cup result, not because of Messi’s individual accomplishments compared to Ronaldo’s. If u believe Messi is better than fine, we agree to disagree.
@winybiny the arguments are not flawed actually what I said is correct however I have realised that the best way to prove that Messi is better isn't just by comparing stats which by the way yes Ronaldo wins in some but actually individually Messi has a lot more and there's nothing better to prove this than balon dor which only the last 2 were controversial. Best argument I think is that experts which I insist are professional footballers and coaches from around the world who know football more than fans (hopefully we can agree on this?) do mostly agree that Messi is better. If you take fanbase aside, every poll you see online, every ranking every aggregated opinion agrees that Messi is better and sorry but that's something that Ronaldo fans will have to accept. You can be a fan and still accept that Messi overall is a better footballer, and no this isn't Jordan vs LeBron debate there really is that much of a difference
Congrats to Ethan for proposing 🎉
Ronaldo has my respect cause he worked super hard to reach Messi' level and competed with him for many years but as they get older you can see Messi is still as skillful as he was 10 years ago whilst Ronaldo has lost to age when it comes to stamina and dribbling to the point where now he is a poacher in the Saudi League (that he still hasn't even won a trophy for) while Messi already gave Inter Miami their first trophy are leading their conference in 1st place whilst being a contributing factor in both goals, assists, chances created, etc.

Loved messi before and yeah skillfully and factually he is the goat , but now the feeling of supporting him is kinda faded away the same feeling which was there when he missed the penalty , idk why, maybe because his arc is complete now
And for the same reason I feel more for Ronaldo now , l mean I would love to support him in his redemption for the trophy now, yk it feels good

But Ronaldo doesn't
Let me explain this one..Messi was always in the goat convo with pele and maradona. We dont see cr7 usually in that convo. No, its not messi fans who created that debate. Messi was in that debate cuz of his abilities. But the thing is maradona and pele had a worldcup which was always used against messi to put him in the number 3 position behind the legends. People wanted messi to settle this. In the end he won a copa america and a world cup. Thats why people use the wc as an argument.
Maradona was never in the same bracket as messi and pele tbh,infact pelé and maradona don't even belong to the same generation,it was just a forced debate by argentines and in general football pundits,pelé and messi are in a league of their own,he was mostly known for his outrageous dribbling ability,yet there are many players who are better dribblers than him,jay jay okocha,garrincha, Ronaldinho,Eden hazard in his prime and messi himself aswell
Messi for sure no debate , media created this to make money , Ronaldo is not even close to Messi , great striker for sure but don’t compare to the Goat Messi

So now the world cup has lost its significance cus Messi won it?? Deluded fanbase
@@monikathakur4285what about u ucl 3 peat
Imagine having 0 Knockout goals in World Cups and being the "Goat"💀
@@henriquezc.3433 imagine having no wc Hattrick lmao
@gamingtechproductions4381 doesn't matter lil bro. Wc is still greater than 5/6 ucls
Cry harder
It was never a debate tbh
2:58 okay ksi well look messi in the World Cup took basically majority of his goals from penalty let’s not stick in there a “penaldo”
How many non-penalty goals did Ronaldo score at the wc?
@@arjungiridhar638 that doesn’t matter cuz you need to remember who was benched and who was performing the most during the World Cup. Argentina is milking the heck out of messi while the Portugal players till today are just destroying Ronaldo despite his good form
Not sure if you know this little rule in football, if you get fouled inside the penalty area, guess what happens? It’s a penalty 😮😮😮 I know your mind is blown
@@Ar17778 did you also know tap ins are also basic ways of scoring and messi did that and people praised him for it and got a ballon D’or for it
@@howtopost3450 sorry how many goals did ronaldo score
Anyone who says Ronaldo is better than Messi is simply delusional. 😂
jj just follows pr
when ronaldo came back to united and was scoring goals most premier league fans said ronaldo is the goat (including jj)
as soon as he leaves and messi wins the wc they all say messi is the goat
This shows how bad their football knowledge is tbh
messi is the goat, he got it right in the end at least, the other clowns like Fatzinga still say ronaldo is better
At the moment Messi is leading the goat debate and it will stay that way probably at the end of their careers
But agreed the reason JJ has for Messi being the goat shows his ball knowledge is bad
Messi was always considered the better of the two, JJ is just finally accepting it
@@Kugann I'm not saying who the goat is but some of these guys keep changing everytime and it shows they dont understand their technical ability
@@lilblitz7406 messi is goat.
I’m not sure they understand the concept of freaky friday 🤣
what is delusion - ronaldo fans
What is delusion - Sidemenstans and yesman
Messi is way, way, way better and it's not even close especially after the Euros 😂
Messi >>>
Some of what they're talking about and asking Luke 😂. Remember guys, the kid is only 17, you guys are all at least 10+ years older.
a pen a game wins you a trophy
ask messi
you been under a rock or something? did you not watch the last WC
without penalties ronaldo wont have a carrer so stfu !
Who remembers when KSI used to be a big Ronaldo fan??
doesnt matter whos fan youre lol you can still acknowledge messi is the greatest
my respect for Harry, Ethan and Luke 📈📈📈📈
U lot are gay for ronaldo?
his physique is better so … fckin akenfenwa is better than messi ronaldo ronaldinho r9 mbappe neymar
Ronaldo has about 3 stats in all of football he beats Messi in… Messi wins every other one convincingly the debate is so forced it’s embarrassing
More ucl , most goals , most int goals most ucl goals and assists . Most goals in a single ucl season 1and 2 . Most goals in ucl finals . 100 plus goals in 3 leagues . He has more records than Messi …
Before World Cup honestly Ronaldo was ahead .. only Messi fans think this way .. now he has won the World Cup
@@asrarfarooqui85 brother if anyone actually believed messi needed the world cup to be the goat they are just delusional, i could also sit here and name like 50 stats messi has over ronaldo and thats all you have is ucl goals and different leagues lol thats it thats sad but i cba, your just a clear bias fanboy lol anyone with eyes can see messi is very clear world cup or not, legit one glance at messi vs ronaldo head to head and the difference is staggering
@@asrarfarooqui85Playing for Madrid is so much easier than playing for Barcelona. Finally, the CL is nothing too special
fr
Ksi say facts👍🐐
CRISTIANO RONALDO IS THE GOAT 🐐
5 statistics why he’s better please? I’ll wait
@@Ar17778 he won't reply no need to wait
Only reason cr7 is their goat is because of charisma and six pack
In football sense both statwise,talentwise and watch factor wise Ronaldo is far below Messi
@@SuRu10116 all Ronaldo has is ucl stats and different leagues lol messi beats him everywhere else and it’s not close
@@Ar17778 Agreed and even the UCL is arguable since Messi is the second best the Competition has seen meanwhile Ronaldo is nowhere near second in world cups
In UCL
MOTMs :-
Messi 64 in 154 games
Ronaldo 40 in 181 games
Clearly seen who was the best individual player on the pitch and who was more depended on his teammates and team in general because if Ronaldo was the best player on the pitch he would have more MOTMs
In UCL
Goal ratio: Messi
Assist Ratio: Messi
Most titles: Paco Gento
Most Outside the box goals : Messi
Best Final Performance: Messi
Most Inside the box: Ronaldo
Most FK : Ronaldo
Most Penalties: Ronaldo
Most Dives : Ronaldo
Most Offsides : Ronaldo
But I'll give it to Ronaldo since he has the most goals in knockouts
of crying
No way that's a 17 year old kid sitting there
Messi's the undisputed goat, this shouldn't even be a debate man. He cemented himself as such beyond a shadow of a doubt after winning that world cup
Saying worldcup where they won all major matches with penalties.
Are penalties not apart of the game.. Ronaldo without penalties would not even be in top 50
Ronaldo scored many offside goals and he's the most penalty taker in history
Ronaldo at 39 is still out performing a 36 year old Messi. They're both GOAT's, each has had better years than the other, but to pretend like one is vastly superior to the other is just stupid. Ronaldo will always be no.1 for me, but its obvious that they have both completely dominated football for the last 15 years and there's no one else who comes close to them.
Tbh their career ended when they both left Europe for me
outperforming in the camel league lmao
@@Droidd1993 meanwhile Messi's in the burger league and still can't perform?
MESSI 👑
ps3 is literally older than this kid
For me it’s Messi I mean look who has the most Motm in the history of the game. The guy can drop a 10/10 without scoring or assisting, just from playmaking and dribbling past his opponents like cones.
There was never a debate
Like this comment if you think Ronaldo is the goat 🐐
Bez is living the dream he got bowen on the podcast
This was never a debate..Messi didn't need a WC to be the greatest. It just ended the discussion for the ones that were blind before that
The world cup argument is dumb as fuck. Argentina has always had a stacked roster of world class players. It was only a matter of time they won. Portugal tho??? Only Ronaldo, he can’t win WC by himself
argentina always had a stacked roster? did you watch 2014 2018 squads
with the squads Ronaldo had 2006 2018 2022 why didnt he win?
@michu020398 holy fuck, educate yourself before talking, kid
@@Scremaful because he has terrible teammates ? 🤣 Ronaldo is the first world class player from Portugal since Figo.
@@michu020398so now world cup has no credibility😂😂😂
I remember Ksi saying something about Ronaldo better because he could show who could stand the test of time, but now he says Messi is best because he won world cup
messi the goat
Easily
This is what sets KSI in different category than the rest of the sideman. Class recognizes Class
