Happy 39th birthday to the world champion, record 8x Ballon D’Or winner, and the greatest footballer of all time, Lionel Messi. 🐐

[Chinonso Ani @CipherChi1]

When the Ronaldo it’s no where to be found in World Cup legacy after playing 6 tournaments 😂

[🅓🅞🅝🅨 @Rmadonyfc_]

@u5syx That means after he passes Messi before he gets to Ronaldo

[Chinonso Ani @CipherChi1]

With same logic Messi it’s better than Ronaldo in all time Goals given the game ratio u used here…

[grandson @Grandsoncr7]

Kylian Mbappé has 20 goals in 20 World Cup matches, while Lionel Messi has 21 goals in 31 World Cup matches.

Messi is not even better than kylian Mbappe talk more of Ronaldo 😂 😂

[Chinonso Ani @CipherChi1]

Bigger World Cup over Ronaldo not Messi Bro he’s not Topping the goals nor assit of the tournament and both him and messi have played in two finals so what exactly does he have over Messi aside from the Golden Boot?

[Ceejay @Sir_jaay01]

You can’t use Mbappe to taunt Ronaldo.

Kylian Mbappe is bigger World Cup player than both Lionel Messi and Ronaldo.

Messi went to the World Cup and came back with 0 goals in his prime and a season he won the Ballon d’Or.

Mbappe lowest world cup goals so far is 4 goals and he has never been knocked out of the World Cup before the final.

So if the World Cup is the metric, Mbappe is the greater player than both Messi and Ronaldo.

[Chinonso Ani @CipherChi1]

With all the long conversations of winning it across different leagues ? Why didnt he win it in the biggest stage of sports after trying 6 fucking time. Yoo if he can’t do it in the biggest stage of the sports he doesn’t have any metric to be in GOAT conversatio…

[Zeal @_Zeal13]

The problem with so many Messi fans is that they think the GOAT debate begins and ends with talent and aesthetics....and speaking of talent, Ronaldo has enough talent to belong in any conversation about natural ability. You people have just chosen to ignore how outrageously gifted he actually was.

Now add adapting and winning across multiple leagues, unrivalled Champions League dominance, thriving under different managers and tactical systems, football's all-time goalscoring record, transforming Portugal from perennial underachievers into champions and remaining elite into his 40s.

Tell me Ronaldo doesn't have every bit as legitimate a GOAT case.

[Chinonso Ani @CipherChi1]

We’re going B2B in the biggest stage of sports ⚽️ i have dedicated 1000 gallons to drain Ogunmepon fans 😂

[Joshblaze @realjoshblaze]

Who remember when I posted this tweet in 2022 about Argentina winning the world cup in Qatar, with the way they are moving I'm kinda having the feeling they might win it again. y'all should be scared

[JA @DamnItWasFun]

Messi has surpassed Maradona by every single metric goals, assists, club trophies, individual accolades, and delivering a World Cup alongside Copas Maradona never won. Claiming otherwise is brainless. There is no 40% poll you liar. You manufactured that out of your ass to cope.

To say Messi had everything on a platter just proves you don't watch football with your actual eyes. Someone who carries broken teams on his back, scores the most solo goals in the history of the sport and creates everything out of absolutely nothing does not have a platter.

You have no point on his temporary international retirement. He came back, took total accountability and then anchored the team to win three consecutive international trophies. Whatever happened before is meaningless.

Your point about him never being signed for a transfer fee is a stupid argument that exposes your ignorance. Messi stayed loyal through thick and thin, making his team succeed from the ground up. He didn't need to jump from club to club like Ronaldo, desperately hunting for whatever pre packaged, elite team had already been winning their respective leagues for multiple years just so he could start padding his stats. Ronaldo took the easy way out by moving to ready made champions and claiming it was a "challenge"🤣. He fooled the football world.

Messi is quite literally a better goalscorer than Ronaldo. He has a vastly superior goals per game ratio, way less penalty goals, and he achieves this while simultaneously being the greatest dribbler and playmaker on earth. Ronaldo is a penalty box poacher who relies entirely on service. MESSI IS THE SERVICE, the dictator of the tempo, and the finisher all in one.

Negreira case or trying to link it to Messi's talent is just dumb. Referees didn't dribble past players for him. Off pitch noise takes absolutely nothing away from raw, on pitch footballing ability. That’s the ultimate distinction here Messi fans just need to talk about the actual 90 minutes of greatness on the pitch, while you lot have to look for every conspiracy under the sun to cope.

You can live in your delusional fantasy bubble and pretend no amount of Ballon d'Ors or World Cups will change your mind, but your refusal to accept the truth doesn't change objective reality. You have to actively lie to yourself every single day just to keep your narrative alive. Keep your blinders on if it helps you sleep at night but the entire world already sees the gap. Ronaldo is not half the player Messi is. Messi is the GOAT and it's not even close.

[Ray Touchline ⚽ @RayTouchline]

You are asking people to “act like they went to school,” yet you are using GOAT as though it means any footballer who was exceptionally talented.

It does not.

GOAT means the Greatest of All Time, and that claim must be tested against the highest level of football available. The World Cup is the sport’s ultimate competition. A player cannot be crowned the greatest footballer ever without conquering football’s greatest stage. Club trophies, goals, longevity and individual awards can place someone among the greatest players, but the GOAT standard must include a World Cup.

That immediately removes Cristiano Ronaldo from the GOAT category. He is an all-time great goalscorer with an extraordinary club career, but he never won the World Cup. Calling him a GOAT simply because he is one of the best players ever is exactly the same misuse of language you displayed by applying the term to Ronaldinho and several other legends.

Messi, meanwhile, completed the entire football résumé: elite goalscoring, historic playmaking, record individual recognition, sustained club dominance, continental success and, crucially, the World Cup, where he was also named the tournament’s best player. He does not merely possess a GOAT “claim”; he satisfies the full standard.

Ronaldinho is a legend. Ronaldo is an all-time great. Messi is the GOAT. These categories are not interchangeable simply because you admire all three.

And calling people “mad,” “foolish” or uneducated for correcting your misuse of a very simple term does not make your argument stronger. It only creates the peculiar spectacle of someone questioning everybody else’s intelligence while repeatedly failing to understand the words at the centre of his own argument.

[Ray Touchline ⚽ @RayTouchline]

This take sounds nice, but it dodges the real issue.

Appreciating Ronaldo’s greatness is not the same thing as manufacturing “two GOATs” to protect him from comparison.

Nobody serious denies Ronaldo is one of football’s greatest ever players. The problem is that some people only became comfortable with “two GOATs” when Messi completed football and the argument became harder to sustain.

There is also a difference between respecting greatness and moving the goalpost. When Messi had no international trophy, it was used aggressively against him. When he won Copa América, it became “not enough.”

When he won the World Cup, suddenly the World Cup became “just six or seven games.” Ronaldo himself questioned whether one World Cup should define the best player in history, saying it is “6 games, 7 games” and asking if that is fair.

Then we heard the Euros being placed on the same level as the World Cup. Ronaldo said Portugal winning the Euros was “equivalent to winning a World Cup,” according to Fox Sports/AP. That is not neutral appreciation of greatness; that is clearly reframing the debate around what favours him.

So no, the issue is not that Ronaldo fans are “sensible” because they appreciate two legends. The issue is that many of them spent years reducing Messi’s legacy, then started preaching balance when the evidence no longer favoured their argument.

Ronaldo is an all-time great. That part is settled. But the “two GOATs” argument often feels less like fairness and more like damage control.

[Shephad @Shephadkay]

This is one of the differences between Messi and Ronaldo.

Be the judge.

[Chinonso Ani @CipherChi1]

@UnkleAyo they All disguise now, where was all of them back then in 2016 when he’s not winning the trophy at the national lvl ?

[🇦🇷 @edgeandgonee]

3 back to back UCL titles, right after his commercial for Israel.

This is all making sense now

[LawJhay 🇦🇷 @Jlsesugh]

Atletico Madrid never won the Champions league in their history, but they participated in the club world cup over Barcelona.

So what OS should you actually be using if privacy matters to you?

Tails OS — runs from a USB stick. leaves zero trace on the machine. all traffic goes through Tor. when you shut it down, everything is gone. used by journalists, whistleblowers, and people with actual threat models.

Whonix — runs as two separate virtual machines. one handles Tor routing. one is your workstation. even if your machine is compromised, your real IP physically cannot leak. the architecture prevents it.

Qubes OS — every app runs in its own isolated environment. a compromised browser can't touch your files. Snowden uses it.

Hardened Linux — any distro beats Windows for privacy. needs configuration. but it doesn't have a GDID connecting to Microsoft.

Cry for me joor. Cry cry cry

[LERRY @_AsiwajuLerry]

Cape Verde, Egypt and now Switzerland

Look at the route to a World Cup final for certain somebody.

[Chinonso Ani @CipherChi1]

Now Argentina 🇦🇷 are done with the AFCONs as per say its now time to play the tough ones the Euros 😂

[Dr. Maalouf ‏ @realMaalouf]

The Egyptian Football Association released a video titled: “The Secret to Victory.”

They openly declare that the key to victory is to begin each match by cursing Christians and Jews.

Before every game, the team gathers to recite Quranic passages describing Christians and Jews as infidels under Allah’s wrath.

Coptic Christians make up 15% of Egypt’s population, yet they are not allowed on the national team.

Now, the Islamic team of Egypt has been eliminated by the ‘infidel’ nation of Argentina. Allah was not on their side.

[Chinonso Ani @CipherChi1]

@sepril23NG lol this it’s when your idol Ronaldo was defeated yesterday it’s pain Fifa President that your idol can’t execute his script

[Daniel Regha @DanielRegha]

Argentina had won two World Cup (in 1978 and 1986) before Messi's debut, and had won about 14 Copa America titles. It took the national almost 40 years to win another trophy, fourty good years in 2022. Now despite all Messi's accomplishments since his debut, that is, 35 titles in 17 seasons, Messi also won his first major international title in 2021 which was the Copa America, taking 16 years into his career, and almost 17 years to add the World Cup trophy to his collection.

Now during his years of Int'l trophy drought he was heavily criticized even by Argentines, especially after missing the crucial PK in 2016.

Messi lost four international finals back to back, almost quit the team, and had to struggle to win his first Copa America and World Cup, but all of a sudden it was rigged for him? Be serious.

[Chinonso Ani @CipherChi1]

lol 😂 i understand the comment its coming from 💔 but Messi has achieved almost all he has done the one that cant lace messi boots its Ronaldo he tried 6 x and couldn’t catch up. 😂

[Henry @Uzuakoliii]

@Wizarab10 Nobody is greater than him, even Messi can not lace his boots.
