Salah - PL top scorer, no trophies.
Ronaldo - CL winner, CL top scorer.
Modric - CL winner, WC golden ball.
Lionel Messi - La Liga + Copa del Rey winner, (beating Ronaldo’s Madrid to both), Pichichi, European Golden Boot, Most assists in the league.
Conclusion: Disgrace
Cristiano Ronaldo has played 27 World Cup games. He has scored a non-penalty goal in 5 of them:
🇰🇵 North Korea ⚽️
🇬🇭 Ghana ⚽️
🇪🇸 Spain ⚽️⚽️
🇲🇦 Morocco ⚽️
🇺🇿 Uzbekistan ⚽️⚽️
4 of these teams finished bottom of their group. They had a combined 2 points in total.
A quiet World Cup coming straight off an injury, and people forgot who Lamine Yamal truly is.
This is the best footballer in the world, and he had an absolutely outrageous season.
There’s this Valdano quote on Messi, how Messi was Maradona of 1986 every day of his career. Not only was he asked to be 1986 Maradona every single week… in 2026 they were still demanding he also be the Mbappé/Haaland of 2026 in the World Cup when he turned 39.
And this freak delivered on both.
The Greatest of All Time. 🐐
Busquets has literally everything Rodri has just added flair… which for a dm is unicorn shit. Why’s he doing every pass correct and also dropping shoulders on pressing players. Busquets is literally the Messi of his position. 🐐
Rodri just isn’t better than this. Hes an all timer for sure and now can chat to any midfielder ever with that cabinet. But he just can’t be better than this… a DM has never and will never get better than this
@fiago7 So your reaction after seeing hundreds of thousands of posts claiming Argentina to be an awful, racist, cheating country because of comebacks against 3 teams is to ignore that hate campaign (and not question the PR behind those) but to suddenly be upset a bit of positivity? lol.
"He definitively ended the debate about who is the greatest footballer of all time" 🐐
@MikeLahoud and @PhilKitro say Lionel Messi got the biggest legacy boost at this summer's World Cup.
Lionel Andrés Messi Cuccittini es el único jugador de la historia al cual siempre se le exigió estar al nivel de generaciones pasadas (Maradona, Pelé) y a las generaciones futuras (Mbappé, Haaland).
Y nunca falló, siempre fue mejor.
