    I've never seen another player dominate the game is so many different ways, from the right, from the left, as a center forward, deep in the mid field, and he's dangerous from all of those places, definitely the greatest, in my opinion.

  • @mgu-vx4ib

    Messi is a visionary, a creator, logistics and finisher.
    Ronaldo is a goal scorer.
    You don't have to be a rocket scientist to come to that conclusion. And the statistics back it up:
    Messi: 0.41 assists per game.
    Ronaldo 0.23 assists per game.
    Take away Ronaldo's goal scoring, you're left with a good attacking player.
    Take away Messi's goal scoring, you're left with a world class midfielder and attacking player.
    Messi is also ahead in goals per game. There really isn't much argument to be made that Messi is in a league of his own.

      mgu0000 “Ronaldo is just a goal scorer” whom has created the most chances, key passes and assist in seria A so far this season and also with 200+ assists in his career with over 400+ created chances created through his his whole career. In his Prime days there was nothing he couldn’t do. Stop judging the player he is now, he’s 33 bout to be 34 and is still winning player more of a winner than any footballer of this era and does with his brilliance

    • @mgu-vx4ib
      @mgu-vx4ib 6 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      If you're gonna quote me, then do it correctly. I didn't say: "Ronaldo is just a goal scorer". I said: "Ronaldo is a goal scorer". There's a big difference there.
      Then, you speak of most chances, key passes and assists in Serie A so far. First of all, he's tied in assists. Second, he's absolutely not the leader in key passes and most chances created, so stop talking out of your ass. And Last, it's only few games into the season. I'm talking career wide here, a decade and more of statistics. You're saying i can't narrow down on Ronaldo's performance now, (which i wasn't), yet you narrow down on his assists in this very early season and draw out a moot argument from that. That's hypocrisy and you're contradicting yourself.
      "In his prime days there was nothing he couldn't do"
      Ok, and who cares? I'm talking career wide here, not one instance in time. That would be the dumbest argument anyone could make. Many players have had an incredible prime. But consistency is key. Otherwise we could argue that some random player who had one great season and failed since then could be considered the greatest player of all time, but that's not how this works.
      "he’s 33 bout to be 34 and is still winning player more of a winner than any footballer of this era and does with his brilliance"
      And we can consider the English language butchered. Honestly, i'm gonna have to guess at what is it you were trying to get across. I suppose it's something like: "He's still winning more then any other footballer", which again is incorrect. Messi has much more trophy's in his trophy case.
      Either way, that entire last paragraph would change things into a team based discussion, not an individual one.
      Stats don't lie, read my initial post again. There is no argument to be made for Ronaldo being better then Messi.

    • @kobeforever-hokage5471
      @kobeforever-hokage5471 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Ronaldo does have the most assist and chances created in the Italian League so far. Just because he’s tied Dosent mean he dosent have the most assists. Most chances created and that’s a fact. And if u never meant to say Ronaldo’s is ‘Just a goal scorer’ why didn’t u point his other strengths? Even till this day ronaldo is more than just a goal scorer. He doesn’t have have the talent Messi has, he’s 33 he switched his game so he can have a longer career. As said by himself. He delivers when it’s needed the most and that’s why he’s best even at his age. It dosent matter what competition or team or league he plays in he will always deliver the goods. He is the most winning player of his era and that’s just facts. The most individual awards, the Most CL trophies the same amount of the the 100 year history of Liverpool, Barcalona, Bayern etc. an international trophy with average team. The most records broken than any player. Messi has a slightly bigger trophy by two or three but from comps like copa del Rey. Don’t doubt his ability even now he can do anything thing when he wanted to.

    • @mgu-vx4ib
      @mgu-vx4ib 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Tied for most assists early league. Absolutely NOT the most chances created. Provide me with a valuable source that states otherwise.
      What are his other strengths? I said he was "a good attacking player". What strengths does he have over Messi exactly? There are none, so i didn't name them.
      "Even till this day Ronaldo is more than just a goal scorer."
      - I never said he wasn't. I said if you take away his goal scoring, he's still a great attacking player. But compared to Messi, he's average.
      " he’s 33 he switched his game so he can have a longer career. As said by himself."
      - And this has anything to do with the topic at hand... because?
      "He delivers when it’s needed the most and that’s why he’s best even at his age. It dosent matter what competition or team or league he plays in he will always deliver the goods."
      - I never said he didn't deliver or that he doesn't play well in any competition. Again, what does this have to do with him being statistically behind Messi by a long shot?
      "He is the most winning player of his era and that’s just facts. The most individual awards, the Most CL trophies"
      - They are tied for Balon Dór. Messi leads in the Golden boot, 5-4, What other individual awards are important? Do tell.
      - Messi has 4 Champions League wins. Ronaldo has 5.
      - Messi has 9 La Liga wins. Ronaldo has 2 La Liga, 3 Premier League.
      - Messi has 8 Spanish Super cups, Ronaldo has 2 Spanish Super cups and 1 Fa cup.
      - Messi has 6 Copa Del Rey, Ronaldo has 2 Copa Del Rey and 2 League Cups.
      Are you saying 1 UCL cup is worth 4 La liga wins, 5 Spanish Super cups and 2 Copa Del Rey cups?
      How is he winning the most of his era when Messi has 11 cups more in his trophy case?
      " an international trophy with average team. "
      - Everyone knows that Portugal was by far the most undeserved winner to ever win the Europa Cup. They were lucky and Ronaldo wasn't a top player whatsoever.
      - Messi has won the world cup under 21. Guess who the top scorer of that competition was.
      - Messi has carried Argentina to the World Cup in Russia, the World cup finals in 2014 and did all he could but his teammates let him down.
      - Messi has carried Argentina to two Copa America finals.
      - Messi was assist leader and top scorer in all instances mentioned above.
      And even if we disregard all this, you're again selecting specific moments to narrow down a player when it's not about a few world/europa/copa cup matches. It's about career wide, which again, is where Messi tops Ronaldo in everything that is important.
      ""The most records broken than any player"
      Unimportant records to begin with, and who cares for records when you have goals/assists?
      -Messi holds the most important records to begin with. 91 goals in a season. Tapinaldo/Penaldo has records in diving and crying when his teammates score.
      "Messi has a slightly bigger trophy by two or three"
      -11 actually.

      @@ArnoldEwin well there's a problem with the voting method. 99% football players would have watched the world cup. And who performed better in the world cup? Modrich and Mbappe and that's why Modrich won the title for the best player, coz he played well on the biggest stage and got the most attention, hence MOST VOTES.
      Now the 2nd most watched tournament is CL, and Ronaldo scored 15 goals(I guess), got attention, hence VOTES.
      So the pitfall of voting is that very few players vote based on OVERALL season. And we ALL know who had best of the season.

He ticks every box with "sublime": scoring, passing, vision, ball control, dribbling, holding the ball up, closing spaces on his opponents, tracking back to defend. A complete, all-round performance. A soloist like Pavarotti and a maestro like Von Karayan. He has got it all. He is incomparable.

    There's a difference between greatest and best.
    Greatest refers to your legacy which relies on the trophies you won , while being the best refers to you being the best player ever in terns of intelligence , skill and improvisation.
    You chose which you prefer(the best or the greatesr).
