You'd think being this all conquering wonder of human nature that he is that he may have elevated his team to a higher position than that of 2nd in the league, 6 points behind the vastly inferior ronaldo's madrid.

15 titles in their last 18 tournaments is pretty good going.

"The Spanish league is the best in the world. Why would Messi need to prove himself by playing outside of it?"

Exactly.

Messi needs to play in Ligue 1, where it snows occasionally, to prove himself.

Word.

Why do the pro-messi lobby end all posts with "Argument over" ?

posted on 7/4/12

to say its not even close is ridiculous. messi is better than ronaldo. but he is not a million miles ahead
-----------------------------------------------------

Actually, it genuinely isn't close. Messi is a class ahead of Ronaldo.

'The people who prefer Ronaldo are usually homosexuals who are attracted to him.'

You just nailed it.

I think some only want to provoke that's all.

Why do you have to be good in the World Cup to be considered the best ever?

Argentina have a terrible defence, and Maradonna preferred Tevez over Messi when he was manager.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Because the World Cup is the biggest football tournament on Earth, it is the pinnacle. I don't recall Maradonna ever dropping Messi for Argentina. Regardless of what there defence is like, the fact remains that Messi has underperformed in his international career, so far. Still plenty of time, of course.


Only Messi assists more than Xavi too.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
And Xavi, Iniesta, Fabregas or Thiago assist the assist. Messi is great, but Barcelona are no one man team.

The Champions League is better than the World Cup.

Does it really matter? You've been proved wrong over and over again.

Listen, we know you'd like Ronaldo's piece inside you, but we're judging the pair of them based on footballing ability

I think the idea that he would need to overcome PL defenders to be considered great is stupid. Fact is, PL defenders are made to deal with PL strikers, they wouldn't know whats hit them if they came up against Messi.

Great argument. You've definitely managed to prove him wrong.

Comparing Messi to Ronaldo is like comparing Henry to Hasselbank.

No that is a fact.

The Champions League is better than the World Cup.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
That's a matter of opinion. But there is no doubt that the World Cup is a bigger stage than the CL, with a much larger audience, and an altogether different type of pressure.

Earl Brutus with his one liners.

You've come across way too many people with a brain.

If you had more backup you could've overpowered them with nonsense.

No Messi is miles ahead of Ronaldo.

Barca' play Madrid, only one player is noticeable. And it ain't the homosexual diver.

Sorry, I can't help it. Your stupidity is driving me crazy.

I think the phrase that sums this argument best is that Ronaldo has everything, but Messi has more.

I think the Champions League is better, the World Cup is a bigger stage though.

Like I love to say, Messi could score half Ronaldo's goals and I'd STILL consider him the better player. He's a class ahead of Ronaldo. There's a reason no one EVER compares Ronaldo to a Pele or Maradonna.
