@AFCboston@Zerox0509@plixun_ What’s wrong about his points though who gives a fuck if Messi went longer at one point the only thing that matters in life is the finish line everyone knows this
@Deji_mide@_tuoyotosan First word you said wasn’t true and 500 people liked it wtf incase you forget Ronaldo shat the fucking bed at the World Cup and he still won the ballon dor
@thatbenniberry I know you also wouldn’t lose 2 World Cup finals wanna know how I know this cause you never made it to the final wow isn’t that one a shocker some people just talk just to talk🤦♂️
@Timmyofdelta I won’t even talk about the context of this take but let’s use your logic CR7 would now not even crack the top 400 best players of all time stick to basketball Timmy
@teeconstant11@bossWHYT@Timmyofdelta Everything you’ve listed here that Ronaldo has slightly more of isn’t even a fraction of the weight of winning the World Cup aswell as in the hardest era
@thattboy_lee@ForeveRFan_RF@lekanon_top You keep saying “overall influence,” but when the actual evidence overwhelmingly points to Messi having the greatest influence, you suddenly call it “just an opinion.” That’s not an argument it’s an excuse.
@thattboy_lee@ForeveRFan_RF@lekanon_top regardless of who played—they had the best squad and controlled almost every match. Argentina without Messi doesn’t sniff the final. That’s the difference between being the best player on the best team and being the player who carried his team.
@thattboy_lee@ForeveRFan_RF@lekanon_top progressive carries, and was directly responsible for nearly half of Argentina’s goals while dragging one of the weakest finalist squads statistically to the final. That’s why he won.
Rodri’s case isn’t comparable. Spain dominated the tournament
@thattboy_lee@ForeveRFan_RF@lekanon_top You’re hiding behind “it’s subjective” because you can’t actually refute the evidence. Every football award has subjective elements, but they’re based on objective performances. Messi led the World Cup in Man of the Match awards, chance creation, succwss dribbles
@Footbal7Funnys He doesn’t have a point at all… Pele Played in fucking 1950 Cards weren’t even a thing than is this a joke? If your using world cups as the metric than Ronaldo isn’t top 1000 your not helping your own narrative with your logic😭
@thattboy_lee@ForeveRFan_RF@lekanon_top The question is who was the tournament’s standout player for that team, and in 2014 it was clearly Messi.
If your own standard is “overall influence, not just goals and assists,” then the case for Messi becomes stronger, not weaker. Also sorry that it’s multiple parts
@thattboy_lee@ForeveRFan_RF@lekanon_top If one final decided the award, then players wouldn’t receive it based on six or seven games of work.
And saying Mascherano or Di María were also important doesn’t weaken Messi’s case. Every World Cup-winning or finalist team has multiple key players.
@thattboy_lee@ForeveRFan_RF@lekanon_top time), scored decisive goals in the group stage, and was the focal point every opponent built their defensive plan around. That’s influence.
Comparing Messi’s final to Rodri’s is also a weak argument. The Golden Ball is for the entire tournament, not one match.
