@DJWellingt11432@creakio Yes it is. Back during those years it was very close. Messi has since pulled away and is now the clear goat. I’m responding to people who say it was never a debate at all, but the debate was fair to have back in those days.
@33Mukii@creakio More goals, more of a consistent threat when watching the games, plus winning the balon d’or. Again I agree messi is the goat, but there were definitely years where ronaldo was at the very least on his level
@DJWellingt11432@creakio Crazy how defensive messi fans get. Even though I agreed Messi is the goat, I’m not allowed to say there were a couple years where ronaldo was slightly better or on the same level in his prime without everyone losing it
@lasagnenrider@creakio No I’m just trying to fight back against some of this insane Ronaldo disrespect “How was this ever a debate” from watching him washed up at 41 past his time. In his prime it was absolutely a fair and reasonable debate to have.
@KurrKurr76@kyan_nez@creakio Idk im seeing people using this world cup to say “How were they ever compared” Like we all know Ronaldo is not very good anymore and is old, using this world cup to make that point is just disrespectful
@KurrKurr76@kyan_nez@creakio I think messi is the better player, I just think there were some seasons where where ronaldo was slightly better or at the very least it was a fair debate, and the disrespect Ronaldo has been getting is ridiculous
@lasagnenrider@creakio Yeah well my point is thats its close, and there were some seasons where I thought ronaldo was better, and some where it was at least fair to say it was a debate. I still think messi is the better overall player, my argument is just that it was a valid debate for a time.
@kyan_nez@creakio I think messi is the overall better player, my argument is just that it was a valid debate for some years in their prime, and the disrespect for Ronaldo I see on here is kinda out of control, that’s my only point lol
@_seedneyy_@creakio That’s perfectly fine, my only argument is that it was a valid debate and very close for some years in la liga. Messi is the better player overall, even tho I think ronaldo in his prime was maybe the scariest player ever to have to defend
@kyan_nez@creakio In madrid ronaldo played forward and basically only focused on goals so obviously from that standpoint messi effected the game much more. When ronaldo was on man u in 2008 he arguably did as much or more than messi did on the pitch though
@GxldeLM8@creakio My argument is that there was a debate and they were close at some point in ronaldos prime, not that he was better. So yeah its close but I still stand by that lol
