It's a shame he didn't shine where it really matters.

trollololol

 

[Keitanz]

What has he done in the Champions League since joining Real Madrid? compare it to Lionel Messi's record in the CL.. the only way Ronaldo will be known as being better than Messi is if he does very well in the Champions League.

apples and pears. Troll

Apart from his 13 Champions League goals in 18 games you mean? trollololol

Oh and I never mentioned Messi, it was the fat goofy one.

 

[cHodAX]

Oh and on the subject of Messi in the CL, might I just mention that he is an utterly brilliant player but when it comes to goals in the CL Rudd Van Vistelrooy has a higher goals to games ratio.

 

[cHodAX]

lol madness, they are lucky they weren't murdered!

I have not seen Ronaldo win an important CL match on his own, I have seen Messi do that countless times tho

I'll stop bashing Ronaldo now, I don't want all the deluded Man Utd fanbois calling me a troll

But you are talking about Van The Man!!

The guy is a legend here, even if he only stayed with us for 3 years, its amazing the amount of love he gets everytime ppl talks about him.

I so wish Mou accepts bringing Rutgerius again for a last season as 4th striker, teaching the boy Morata the rol of a pure 9 striker! :worthy:

The guy is a legend at United as well, it is so sad the way he left after falling out with Fergie but the fans will always love the fella, he conducted himself like a gentleman and gave us some brilliant memories.

While I'm sure no one here is doubting Messi's ability, writing this just shows how little you have watched or understood the way Barcelona play. While Messi certainly does some incredible things alone, he is much more a part of a holistic team effort than Ronaldo is at Madrid. Ronaldo is the definition of an individual, he plays for himself first and the team second. Messi's brilliance is more often than not fueled by the brilliance of those around him - the passing of Xavi and Iniesta, the incredible support he gets from Dani Alves. Which is not to say one is better or worse - in fact I believe Messi's propensity towards being part of a team makes him a far better player than Ronaldo - but Ronaldo drags Madrid (and, prior to that, Man Utd) through games on his own far more than Messi does for Barca.

Indeed. No one can take anything away from Messi, he is brilliant but he also gets brilliant service. If you look at the amount of goals that Ronaldo has had to create for himself, it is astonishing. That is not to say Messi doesn't do it or isn't capable, he just doesn't need to do it as often because the players around his share the workload and allow him to take up great postitions thus grinding the opposition into the ground trying to cope with him. Very different players with very different mindsets.

Huh? He's had an absolute brilliant season, Messi's playing in a far more familiar environment with a far stronger unit than Ronaldo. Yet Ronaldo is pissing all over him in the league.

Until messi does it in the premier league Ronaldo > Messi for me!

 

[Aoami]

i couldn't see messi performing as well as he does in la liga on cold wednesday night at the britannia.


trololololol

 

[Calaen]

Busquets has been cleared of racial abuse, what an absolute disgrace to football.

 

[soze]

He is a Barcelona player about to face a evil English team in the Champions League final there was zero chance he was getting banned.

I wonder what odds I would get for the game to be 0 - 0 till Man U get a player sent off before Barcelona go on to win 0 - 1?

He's still pretty good for Argentina though, and their midfield isn't any where near Barcelona's standard.

And the players Ronaldo has around him are not far behind the players Messi has around him.. Ramos, Kaka, Alonso, Maria, Ozil and a few others.

If you count the world war trophy's we won it 20 times!!!

 

[Cerb]

Anyone else heard the rumors that United have signed Alexis Sanchez? Or rather he is as good as signed on?

 

[megadave]

Nope, I decided to watch him after all the hype and it turns out he's not as great as everyone makes out Nani to get his move to Serie A then?

He is very good imho, altho got a bit overhyped after his 4-5 goal game

 

[megadave]

he seems to lose the ball far more than most wingers

Great two free-kicks from Ronaldo. Weren't people saying that his conversion ratio wasn't very good?

 

[megadave]

it isn't, he still fires them into the wall or row Z 19 times out of 20


beckham scored a decent freekick YouTube - LA Galaxy vs Sporting KC 4-1 GOAL David Beckham

 

[bainteor]

Now he was the true master.
