@ABEAS717@Lord_Not_Jesus@FrankEra_ And if Messi farmed all of his goals and assists in group CL group stages, why didnt Ronaldo do the same, in addition to the knockout goals? And dont tell me he didnt try, the man is obsessed with scoring goals, no matter what match it is.
@ABEAS717@Lord_Not_Jesus@FrankEra_ Borg of them played over 1000 matches, yet you still cherrypick like 100 games which according to you hold all the weight. What about creation and dribbling? You blindly support Ronaldo like a cult (similar to Trump supporters), ignoring facts and reality.
@ABEAS717@Lord_Not_Jesus@FrankEra_ You can say that, but Messi still produced a better goal to game ratio while being better at everything else. Hence he is a better player. The world has never seen anything like that, and probably never will.
@Lord_Not_Jesus@ABEAS717@FrankEra_ On paper, maybe. He was still primarily a finisher. Nothing wrong with that, he was amazing at it. Just that Messi matched Ronaldo in that aspect while still being miles better at creation and dribbling.
@ABEAS717@Lord_Not_Jesus@FrankEra_ He has almost always mainly been a finisher, often operating in the box. Even though Benzema was the «striker», he drifted wide to accommodate Ronaldo.
He has never been anywhere near Messi in terms of creative output or dribbling.
@Lord_Not_Jesus@ABEAS717@FrankEra_ You only respond to like 1 out of 3 of my points in each tweet. Messi has never been an out an out striker. He is much more involved in the game in other areas of the pitch.
@Lord_Not_Jesus@ABEAS717@FrankEra_ You are cherrypicking and using hypotheticals, only focusing on goals. Messi isnt even an out and out goalscoring, he is just as much a creator and dribbler. He still outperforms Ronaldo as a goalscorer statistically, who since his early Real days has been a pure goalscorer.
@Lord_Not_Jesus@ABEAS717@FrankEra_ Messi has 914 g and 414 a in 1157 matches. Ronaldo has 973 g and 261 a in 1326 matches.
Messi has 129 g and 40 a in 163 matches in CL. Ronaldo has 140 g and 41 a in 183 matches in CL. Messi has better g/a ratio in every possible way.
@Lord_Not_Jesus@ABEAS717@FrankEra_ Calm down mate. Even if it should have been a red card he still produced the goals, showing that he is capable of doning so. Look at the WC stats between the two (or basically any other stat, for that matter). It is not even close.
@eddy87299456549@Lord_Not_Jesus@ABEAS717@FrankEra_ Well, he has 10 games in row in WC and Euros without a goal. He should be benched. If Portugal still play badly and dont win anything, then of course Ronaldo cant be blamed for that.
@Lord_Not_Jesus@ABEAS717@FrankEra_ I am a United fan, not a Messi fan. But it is okay to be in touch with reality even though it goes against your agenda or the players that you like. Messi vs Ronaldo is not a serious debate, and never has been.
@ABEAS717@FrankEra_ Martínez tactics are horrible, dont get me wrong. But you are deluded if you cant acknowledge that Ronaldo is a big problem for Portugal.
@ABEAS717@FrankEra_ Bernardo was really poor. But face the truth; the Ronaldo was only a passing option when he dropped deep and played a pass backwards. He simply wasnt able to create any space for himself.
@Rmadonyfc_ Yeah, cause no blame is to be placed on the guy who barely moves or offer anything in open play. He even ruined the big chance for Bruno Fernandes. You really are stupid.
@dhiicade12@NepentheZ Well, Ronaldo is just not able to generate any space for himself anymore. He doesnt run. It is almost like playing with one man less.
