Let me do a little football argument today, Mr Bayo:
You are free to love Ronaldo, but you cannot make an argument that he is greater than Messi.
What metrics do you want to measure with? Messi beats Ronaldo across the board.
But let’s flip their records. Would Messi still be greater than Cristiano Ronaldo if:
Messi had 35 trophies, while Ronaldo had 46, the highest in the world?
Messi had five Ballon d’Ors, while Ronaldo had eight?
Messi had 8 domestic titles, while Ronaldo had 13+?
Messi had just the Euros and two Nations Leagues, while Ronaldo had a World Cup, two Copas, one Olympic medal, and one Finalissima?
Messi had 2 FIFA The Best awards, while Ronaldo had 3?
Messi had 4 Golden Shoes, while Ronaldo had 6?
Messi had 0 World Cup Golden Balls, while Ronaldo had 2?
Messi had 0 World Cup Golden Boots, while Ronaldo had 1?
Messi had 960+ goals, while Ronaldo had 900+, but also the most assists, dribbles, and chances created, while playing two fewer years than him?
Messi had 5 Champions League titles, while Ronaldo had 4?
Messi had 0 Laureus Sports Awards, while Ronaldo had 1, the only footballer to win it?
I could go on and on. But even in that scenario, Ronaldo fans would still not concede that Messi is better.
But that is the reality we have here.
The whole of football knows Messi is both better and greater.
Ronaldo’s teammates attest to this. Messi’s teammates attest to this.
Top coaches in the world attest to it:
Pep Guardiola
Jürgen Klopp
Arsène Wenger
José Mourinho
Etc.
Legends of football attest to it, and their careers attest to it.
Messi is 39, and he is still playing with the highest creative and playmaking responsibility on the pitch.
Ronaldo shifted from the wings to the box as early as 2015–2018.
Now they are both at the twilight of their careers, and we see one still actively dictating play, while the other has become a shadow of his former self.
Messi is better and greater than Ronaldo in all regards.
"Di Maria carried Messi. I can't respect his world cup"
But you dey beg Bruno to carry Ronaldo😂😂
"Why can't they just pass to him"
No oo. He must do everything alone😂
Dear Airtel,
Since there's shortage of people that sell akara on Saturday morning, why don't you look into that business and leave this telecom business?
Best disregard,
An unsatisfied customer.
🚨🗣️ Jose Mourinho: "The referee intentionally did not want to give Carreras, Huijsen and Tchouameni yellow cards because they would have been suspended for the 2nd leg."
Valentine being on Saturday is not fair ooo. You mean they will enjoy your babe and return her to you tomorrow morning.
There is love in sharing anyway
