Ooops, I think I misunderstood the first quoted post!
Ronaldo would, if he'd stayed in the EPL, have absolutely battered Shearer's goal scoring record.
He'd have battered all EPL goal scoring and assist records.

hed certainly have beaten the goals imo. But the assists? I'm not sure sure. Whatever club he was at he would be the main striker. But in a league where the top teams score approx 30% less than in Spain. He'd had contributed less.

I also think his totals would be around the 40 a season as he did at Utd. Not the 60 he gets at Madrid. Which would have still been Fantastic. But would have made him look inferior (he isn't imo) to messi.

I heard somewhere that he's scored 25 headers out of all of his hat-trick goals, which is 3 more than Messi has scored in his whole Barcelona career!

Unless of course he'd of tripped over the cat and done an injury that finished his career, there's no way you can state he'd of battered all EPL goal scoring and assist records, he may of had the potential but we'll never know.

Right now Messi has 22 honours compared to Ronaldo 17 plus a better goal to game ratio

There is no definite stat that proves who is better

Spot on.

We're lucky to witness both careers run simultaneously. I think that competitiveness has driven them on to better than if they'd played in different eras.

Absolutely, it's all about opinions, and that's one of the reasons that superb forums, such as this one, keep going.

There really is no definitive answer ............................... although Ronaldo is a slightly better player :whistle:.
