Cristiano Ronaldo - Legend (But just not as good as Messi)

These guys would pick the ball up all over the park tho. They’d get involved deep. Ronaldo has refused to run for 20 years now.

CR7 is the greatest sportsman of all time and it’s not even a debate.

Ah yeah different players completely but C Ronaldo not in the top 10 of all time would be a bit of a stretch.

Messi never really done it when his back was to the wall.

Greavisie always said Cloughie was better until the injury

The hipsters scrambling round spouting all kinds of nonsense tonight.

The stats tell us Cronaldo is a fairly average finisher

Of pints maybe.

Joining PSG will always be a stain on messis career.

He isn’t even the greatest Ronaldo of all time

Greavsie scored 357 goals in English top flight soccer. Alan Shearer the only one to get within even 100 of that total and Shearer was 74 behind that tally on 283.

It should be said that Messi generally handed Ronaldo his arse while they played in the same league during the peak of their respective careers

Correct, Messi has more wins & goals h2h.

He didn’t beat Barcelona to win any of those while at Real Madrid, Barca did beat Real Madrid in 2011, including one of the great Champions League goals in the second leg by Messi

Ronaldo is a great player but the lads who go over the top about him are the types who tend to value celebrity over football ability.

And 6 La Ligas vs 2 in that timeframe. Even one of Ronaldo’s La Liga wins came in a season where by far the most memorable moment is Messi scoring a last minute winner at the Bernabeu
