    I was just saying that Real are lower than Barca this year if you want to look at it from another view. You could argue Diego Costa could have been the best player, Athletico beat Real every game they played (he was injured for champions league final). Its all well and good smashing teams. Anyway, I agreed this year and a half than Ronaldo is better than Messi. However just look at how their all times stats add up, Messi kills him in goals as well as assists.

    Two exceptional footballers but it has got to be Ronaldo for me, he never stops working for the team, he does his bit all over the pitch but still scores a phenomenal amount of goals.

    I have never seen Ronaldo have a bad game, but have seen Messi struggling, especially for Argentina.

    Messi in possibly the greatest club side of all time (albeit him being the most vital part of it), stats shmats.

    I'm not comparing history, that's what Liverpool fans do.

    I said he's the best in the world, and he is.

    This...
    Ronaldo has done it at Lisbon, Man Utd, Madrid and he practically got Portugal to the Worldcup on his own. (All with different styles of play).

    Barca's style of play is tailor made for Messi, which is why hes not as affective for Argentina when he hasnt got Xavi and Iniesta with him.

    Also Ronaldo is fantastic in the air ,he could play down the middle up front and would win a huge amount of headers ,his physique is awsome.
