Feel a bit sorry for Messi that behind he has a bunch of players clearly not good enough and also a manager who has swapped and changed constantly for months - shame his talent hasn’t been shown off more. Expect he will retire now at the end

Imo he’s got better around him than Ronaldo, and equally as good as what Diego had. Whilst the debate as to who was/is better at club level. I think the fans of their respected nations would have Messi as clear third.

I think him leaving Argentina so young has the crowd not on his side so much, he’s also missed at pivotal moments as well as retiring already.

Is there still a Ronaldo or Messi debate?

I expect there will be that debate until the end of time - their stats etc are so close with Messi only winning more leagues than Ronaldo but everything else is so equal it will always come down to who a person likes over the other

For me Messi just shades it , if I had to pick one for my team I would go for Messi but I would expect it would be a 50/50 answer

There is even a website for it

I'll say it..... Ronaldo is the GOAT. :eek:
 
Fantastic performance by Croatia and Argentina on the brink but what a gift for the first by the keeper. Take nothing away from Croatia and they dominated after that. I don't think this is a great Argentine side compared to some of the past and take Messi away and they'd be even more ordinary

Ronaldo is probably the best, and it is marginal, but Messi is the one you would want in your team.

Thats an arsenal fan response 😂😂

Surely if you say Ronaldo is better, you’d want him?

Im if the opinion that I’d pick Ronaldo first if it was playground footy. But would rather watch Messi play.

endless players diving, rolling around in fake agony, pleading with refs, all round fake histrionics.

This is likely very subjective,but I think a lot of people have a team they think it is the worst at it. PORTUGAL is my obvious answer. Pepe and Ronaldo alone div was much as any other team, while Pepe is a scumbag on the dishing out side as well.

No, Ronaldo is too divisive, too self centred, and not a team player.

Not a war. It was a conflict. It just was.

Well technically it was a war both countries were at War with each even if they didn’t “declare war” because their actions were actions of War.
 
I don’t think we’ll ever have the definitive answer to the Messi v Ronaldo discussion, I just think we’re lucky to have them both around during our lifetimes.

No question, Portugal would be my answer as well. Nothing redeeming about that team.

Regarding the ongoing question, Messi every day of the week.
 
Looks like Southgate has been looking in on the forum as reports are saying he’s dropping Sterling for Rashford
