    No wonder you think he is so good, he is getting the credit for about 5 players work in your eyes! Do you find yourself thinking "This messi is everywhere!" when watching barca <laugh>

    <ok>

    Of course, but an assist is a goal that you have had direct involvment in which is why combined goals/assist tables are a good measure of attacking effectivenss. Messi leads Ronaldo in both goals and assists

    Yakubu is better than adebayoor and grant holt is better than suarez then according to you? Goals and assists are important but are only stats at the end of the day.

    When we are talking about 63 goals and 26 assists so far this season I think those stats start to carry a bit more weight

    I think Ronaldo's a self centred tool, always have done. Love the club not the player.

    Levante are 4th or something and highest paid player gets in a year what messi gets in about 10 days. And thats their HIGHEST paid player. God knows what the rest of them are on. And they are 4th in their league. Messi and ronaldo are brilliant but most of their games are unquestionably walk overs vs very poor sides.

    Andrew Keith Mitchell Carroll will become the new greatest player ever.

    It has been written.

    Neither player bottled it. They can't set the world alight every time they play. Chelsea had 10 players in the box at times, no one can dribble through that. Ronaldo played pretty well, just missed a pen, could happen to any player!
