@brfootball Why should Mbappé be the Ballon d’Or winner?
Golden Boot in La Liga
Golden Boot in the UCL
Golden Boot in the World Cup
And the all-time top scorer in World Cup history
#MbappéBallonDeOro
When someone said winning the Euros is equivalent to winning the World Cup, for his country, this is what he meant.
It was only controversial because he said it.
This is what actually vexes me. We’ve watched these two go head-to-head for almost 15 years. If you couldn’t decide who your GOAT was throughout their primes, why are you suddenly using what they’re winning at the very end of their careers to settle the debate?
Did anyone say the debate was over when Ronaldo won his second international trophy? Did everyone suddenly crown him the undisputed GOAT? No. So why should the opposite happen now?
If you think Messi is the greatest, that’s your opinion and that’s fine. But changing your mind solely because of trophies won in the final chapter of their careers makes no sense. Judge their entire body of work, not just how the story ends.
Ronaldo is the Goat, Messi should win 3 World Cup, Ronaldo remains the GOAT.
Ustedes son muy jovenes pero entre 2014-2020, cuando ambos estaban en plenitud. Cristiano ganó 4 UCL siendo una bestia en las 4, Messi se iba mirando el piso. Cristiano ganó 2 titulos con PORTUGAL y Messi perdia finales, pero alli no decian "debate terminado".
If I’m the only one left who still sees Ronaldo as the GOAT, then so be it o.
Like I should turn my back on a 41-year-old Ronaldo who gave me so much joy for yearsss just because Portugal can’t play at the level Argentina plays. Lmaooo!
GOAT jor 🧏🏽♂️
WE’VE GOT TO ADMIT IT WITHOUT FEAR
As a lifelong Cristiano Ronaldo fan, if Messi wins a second World Cup, whether i think it was deserved or not… it becomes impossible to deny him.
He has to be recognised as the second greatest footballer of all time.
Still comfortably behind Cristiano GOATnaldo. 🐐
Okay banter & agenda aside, a very honest question:
If you Messi fans did not concede Ronaldo was GOAT when he was running rampage & Messi was crashing out of international trophies, why do you expect Ronaldo fans to do so now?
10 marks.
Bias aside, he was able to win the premier league & UCL 3x times in a row (two toughest competitions in football history), become football highest goal scorer and still win 5 Ballon D’ors in a system that highly favours your rival, that’s definitely a more impressive career
