Messi vs Ronaldo

There are differences when you use Torres as an example. Both teams he played for Torres was the centre of attention, the team was setup for him.

Forlan, Morientas or Kanoute was not given the same role Torres had Atletico or Pool.

He is an amazing player, but just because he is an amazing player, doesn't mean he has the mental toughness to be THE centre of attention and the Messiah(tm) of a team that would have fallen apart without their Golden Boy. A Maldini he is not.

PS: Just watched the highlights of the Argentina game. Messi's goal looked so easy, I seriously had the impression a child would be able to do it. The whole gamut of their style of play was flawless. Pure footy, at it's very best. *sigh*
 
So true hey. Messi has a way of making things look too easy, some of his goals looks like he is passing the ball into the net.

That was the phrase I was looking for. I always prefer those "make it look like a schoolboy could it" goals to blistering shots from outside the box. Meh... personal opinion's a b1tch :)
 
One more thing. This whole spitgate scandal shows how unwise it is to put too much pressure on such a young player. Fab is undoubtedly highly skilled and a pleasure to watch, but being labeled the Messiah(tm) of any team at too young an age is bad.

Nuff Sed.
 
No Competition!

Not fair to compare........
especially Players to Cry Babies.......
Messi - Great Player
Ronaldo - World's biggest Cry Baby:eek:
 
I still cant get over how long messi stayed in the air waiting for that header.
 
Again congrats to Barca
Ronaldo was excellent (Team however crumbled after the 1st goal) Messi was very good also:)
 
Messi again showed the world his the greatest player on the planet.UK press is going mad at his performance.

Funny how Ronaldo was throwing his toys out of the cot at the end.

Messi was good at times but didn't do anything spectacular. Barca on the whole were good!
 
Everyone has laid the messi v ronaldo debate to bed.Lastnight messi's performance has caused every UK paper to give him the highest ratings in the match.

Messi has shown his by far the better player in the ronaldo v messi debate.
 
here is a clip from the player rating form The Sun, a paper that never has anything wrong to say about anything "english".

Ronaldo got a 5 by the way in their ratings.

LIONEL MESSI - DREAM TEAM STAR MAN

Rose to the big occasion on the night. Like Ronaldo, the Argentinian was brought inside to play down the middle and mesmerised the stadium with his flicks and runs. He then got the goal that his performance merited with a superb header in the second half.

RATING: 9

different season no one was contesting that Messi shouldn't be the Balla d'or winner this year... yet you and Genius kept saying Ronaldo didn't deserve last season's Balla d'or...

lol please show me the post where me and genius said he did not deserve the award!

Both of us said before the award he was going to get it and said he deserved to win it last season.Please do a search on the forum.

The one thing we stuck by was that messi was by far the better player.
