Ive always had the idea that if Ronaldo was the one playing all these years for Barcelona and Messi for Madrid, then Ronaldo would have been praised as the best in history and obviously above Messi.

But saying Messi couldn't do as well in any other team is a little risky, We dont really know how he would do in another team but he has played really well in Argentina and he is the one that other players depend on in Barcelona so.. I dont know why Sir Alex said that.

When Messi plays for Argentina you can see he doesnt play as good as he is with Barca. Which means if he leaves Barcelona he wont be good as he was before

Iraqi then how do you explain ronaldo preformance between Real and Portugal? deffinitly not the same level. Or what about Klose, legendery for Germany and average for clubs.

I think those kinds of statements are pointless due to the fact we will never see messi playing in a different club. All i can say is Messi has played in different styles from Rijkaard, Pep, Vilanova, Roura, Martino and now Enrique and he has done well in all of them. Messi needs to feel good to performe and he has been developing a good chemestry with Neymar and Suarez.

Actually, SAF said CR7 can play with any team. He ment physically strong tall guys. Does it make Messi less significant, I don't think so. I think he as a coach want result first then beauty but I personaly watch Messi because of the beauty of his football. He makes it differently than others, he makes it constantly I mean dribling creativity passing it just amaizing :) Barca makes beautifull football and SAF in the same interview says that "the most exciting side I've ever witnessed" That tells much!!!

He actually meant that, ronaldo can adapt more quickly than messi, which is obviously true.. however saying that he completely cant is preposterous.

When Messi is calm and has been given space, he can terrorize any defense. Ronaldo can play in any team, thanks to his physical abilities, but i doubt the ronaldo now would make any difference.

In football, team sport is important, but individual skills are important just as much. Barcelona wouldnt have make an impact against City if it wasnt for Messi's individual brilliance, nor madrid would even go through thanks to Ronaldo's aerial threat.

Ronaldo and Messi can play anywhere, they just need to feel accepted and trusted by the team to unleash their brilliance.

To be honest i hate it when people say ''Messi will never leave Barca''. I mean like, how the f%ck do you know? Can you see his plans in the future? Are you his father or something? He can do whatever he wants so you shouldnt expect anything.

I agree with Sir Alex. Messi is very much a "Barcelona player". He was groomed for Barcelona, and wouldn't have had his legendary success anywhere else without players like Xavi and Iniesta in his career. Never.

Cherry pick a video from Cristiano's mentor and old coach, this is pointless, you want to see Messi scoring hattricks without Barça ?

Messi takes the ball, from midlefield and drible drible 1-0. Ronaldo needs to be assisted or no goal...

here instead of Barça players put eleven pieces of wood, it will still a goal...

Ronaldo isnt complete, Messi is actually playing in midlefield, do you watch his games ? He is Legendary...

Its completely the opposite, Messi carries his team, in crucial moments or when they are off form, when Cristiano team is shit, he is invisible...

Put Messi instead of Suarez in Liverpool = youporn, put him instead of Alexis in Arsenal = pornhub, put him instead of Hazard = Chelsea to win CL...

I do not agree with this statement. I think Messi can play for any team he wants but the thing that what will affect his play and technique is the league he is playing in.

"when Cristiano team is ****, he is invisible..."

  • Isn't that what being sh*t means? That you're invisible? Speaking of invisible, that's what Messi tends to do in the majority of important matches.

Like what game ? tell me one, only one when he was fit and invisible and i would bring his individual higlight...

Against Atleti, Against Bilbao, Against Sevilla, Villareal, Against Valencia home and away MOTM, scores and assists playing in midlefield...

Messi best number of MOTM in WC, in the league and in CL. If you count tap ins and Penalty as pieces of brilliance, even if Messi has more goals...

He is saving energy not going on useless stats battle after 3-0, he has a final of copa to play, single handedly qualified vs Atletico, finishing the league and playing CL, after this directly starting Copa America in June, and his right foot is a little injured since Dimichelis tackle, here is his last game, a usual Messi game :

Marcus this is for you :)

Messi said that if he had to play for another team, it will be Celtics or Rosario his home. Yes Celtics, he said its the best Football atmosphere he has ever saw and he wants to play in Argentina before retiring, he has nothing to do everywhere else, Barça will never let him go to a direct rival until he decides to leave himself, he has nothing to proove.
Scholes and Giggs are world class, no need to change club to proove it, having Messi and parking the bus would be a BIG WASTE for the strikeforce he gives to the team, in some clubs where he will have awful teammates he will shoot from distance try incredible dribbles instead of assisting, direct play despite loosing some balls, some will go in...

Just like Suarez, no he isnt scoring from outside the box, not because he lost it, but because its more effective to build up with technical teammates...

Messi goal in 93th minutes in WC from outside the box is a perfect example of what he is able to do when he has no choice.

If small, agile players like Silva or Mata, who have a similar style to Messi, are among the best in the Premier League, I don't see why Messi couldn't thrive here. He already proved that he can cope with opponents who approach him with a very physical "style".

This is utter crap, look tiki I understand your opinion, however, why are you judging as if you were the coach, Real Madrid have modric kroos and isco, all are in-form and midfielders, so why the fuck should ronaldo waste his energy in going deep, You think each player does what he wants? NO! the coach tells each players roles, in fact I want a player scoring goals and not going deep, thats disrespecting the midfielders, its like they are useless and they need the forward to help. If we follow this helping role Sergio ramos for balon Dor, well since he helps the forwards and midfielders plus he is a defender.

Look, there is no such thing as tap-ins, or waiting in the 6-yard box. in fact did you see Ronaldos previous games? Yes he went deep and supported the defensive and midfield roles because we all knew of our midfield crisis. You see just like Messi in the world cup, if ronaldo knows that we have a midfield problem he supports! Now I know you must be furious but you must be misunderstood. Ronaldo will adapt quicker than Messi can, you see Messi isnt a 100%, no one is not even zidane, every player has a weakness.

As you see if we look at Ronaldo's performances completely over they years from sporting to Real Madrid as a football fan and not some kid watching too many troll football pics (in general not towards you tiki) you will see the ronaldos performance change from team to team, tactic to tactic, Ronaldo is so good at what he does he gets hate from doing it too much, Ronaldo was one of the best dribblers in his united days, he was a complete midfielder/winger, than in his first years in Madrid under mou, he had a huge role in the defensive and midfield part since team were relying on counter-attacking, (succeeded) but now under carlo, he play offensive with a mixture of possession and counter-attacking. I recall you said Barcelona had some midfield issues. If most fans noticed the problem, I wouldnt dubt enrique would. So the best solution was to let Messi go deep and let Neymar and suarez up-front which is succeeding allowing suarez and neymar more space since messi and iniesta attracts defenders.

Dont say Messi is more complete and Ronaldo only waits for goals, thats only simple minded people saying that crap, people who watch football for the first time and not understanding the game.

If Carlo wants ronaldo to dribble, he will. If he wants him to be a defender, he will and score hattricks while being a defender. Messi in 2013-2014 was average why? No not because of injuries, that was just an excuse. Its because of the parking the bus. Messi is an amazing dribbler, but he as well cant go past more than 6 men, 11 players on the defense is possibly difficult to penetrate with only one solo striker. Than came neymar, who wasnt really at the best in the first couple of months since he had to adapt to a completely different style of play, so you will notice he is usually marked with 1-2 players on that year, which wasnt a big difference for messi being marked with the 5 players. In came the main man Suarez, similar to neymar he didnt do well in the first 2 months, but in the third month, he came back to his predatory skills alongside an in-form neymar, Messi had only 2-3 defenders, which for messi is nothing.

Messi and Ronaldo are both great players, however with both of their own technique, none above the other. You cant judge simply from a single season performance, but his entire career if you would like to say this better than that.

Tiki or "other only CR7 the best guys" each of you can have your best player. Your version. Your preference. That is why I love potatoes and my wife macaroni :)) So this dispute is futile.
P.S. You feel crap after reading quarrel, and I hope we are not become a little bit stupid after that.
