I never said you favoured either of them in the quoted post. I'm saying it's rather unfair of you to attribute Messi's success to his natural talent and then say Ronaldo has worked harder than him when maybe 1 in a few billion will be as physically as capable as him while having his skill....

Basically, they're both genetic freaks who worked equally as hard.

That Ke19 fella is messi bum boy.

As somebody who has spent number of years watching both players and the respective teams i have the below to say.

Messi has a phenomenal natural talent and god like abilities all round the pitch. From a very young age is was apparent Messi was going to be one of the greats. The Barca team from 2009-2017 has been moulded to fit Messi like a glove, and when the rest of the team includes some of the greatest players in recent history it makes for a dominant powerhouse. The touch pass touch pass type of play within the midfield and striker zone suits Messi's quick feet and skill set. For a long time Messi reigned as king of football and still on a visual level.

Ronaldo although an outstanding player from the outset had to develop he's skills and fitness levels over period of time. First with the flashy style of step overs and runs at Man U and then with the more involved superhuman athlete at Real. However what a lot of people like about Ronaldo is he has changed he's style of football over the years to meet the demands of the team and he's body. Always adapting to the situation needed and scoring at the most vital times in Real's history.

I prefer Ronaldo however Messi is more naturally talented.

Real have been the better team this season, and Ronaldo has been the goalscorer they have needed, regardless of the way the goals are scored.

I don't think you've watched Barca the past two seasons consistently, it's Messi and sometimes Neymar doing everything and everyone else just watching them play. Iniesta is old as fuk, Rakitic cannot attack and there is no right back either. I have acknowledged Ronaldo to be a great player but his impact on the game is not near Messi's level. Ronaldo pops up at the end of great team plays and takes all the glory and steals the headlines (great finisher), when in actual fact Marcelo has been their best player this season.

Except several world best coaches & players also said otherwise.

Opinions are divided, titles speak for themselves & honestly, until Messi can show that he can perform outside Barça no1 will truly regard him as the goat like people do with Ronaldo

oh look a portugese hanging on tapnaldo's nuts, what a surprise

name one NON portugese personality that says ronaldo is better, i'll wait

Drogba.

Didier Drogba : " Ronaldo was better than me and Messi , he really deserved itthis year"

try again

"Everyone knows Cristiano Ronaldo is better than Messi, not only me, but for some it's hard to recognize that"

stay mad red

drogba'a a good guy, probably felt bad for ronnie knowing literally nobody with a SRS opinion on the matter considers him to be the better footballer
