not too many people outside of england know who thierry henry is. he is an EPL legend. He is not a football world legend. enter any corner of this world and ask about pele or ronaldinhoo or ronaldo de lima even in the remotest villages they will say they know them. ask about thierry henry and most dont know him. he is an epl legend. thats all.

C Ronaldo has no business on that list biko.

But ur messi has only scored penalties this season without a single goal for both club and Country in over 10 games...answer to that...messi foolish hypocrites

we all kno messi is past is prime.... we all know what he did and records he set in d el classico n mind u he us still d highest scorer in dt fixture....messi is getting old n dts part of nature BT he deserves some respect for what he av done in soccer..

Messi is just nothing but a la liga great ...finito ...world cup belongs to pele, champions league belongs to cr7 ... messi only has la liga and thats local... when ronaldo was messi's present age, he was winning CL and CL top scorer , setting records...ur short man is busy relying on penalties to b on the score sheet this season...

Any modern player thst hasnt featured in the confederation Cup should not b mentioned amongst the greats... Ronaldinho, de lima , zidane , cr7 have all featured...messi is just on Lewandowski level or Alfredo di Stefano level

I didn't doubt Messi ability and I would never do, in the subject above, you sees Messi as the greatest and not Pele whom BBC, FIFA and proclaimed as the best. The question you didn't answer is, Messi in Barca and Messi in Argentina, which of the two do you prefer? I have no issue with Ronaldo because Messi is better than him but we are looking at Messi and Pele. World Cup is the highest football tournament and not UEFA Champions League nor any other league, Pele's statistics is 92 matches with 77 goal, with 3 World Cup trophy but Messi has played 140 times for Argentina and the thread showed his total goals and number of World Cup trophy won, thank you.

Messi dint hv a single contribution in the knockout games in 2014...di maria and higuain were the ones that took them to the final ...if not for dimaria that got injured in the semi final, Argentina might hv probably won the WC... messi was crap in the knockout stages

Bro, first and foremost...Coutinho wasn't even a starter at bayern and Bayern didn't want him after the loan....he was on his was back to the epl most likely arsenal at that time as Barca wanted to sell him until
Koeman came in called him back

Secondly, Barcelona didn't play Atalanta....it was Napoli...and what do u mean by it was a miracle?

U can keep watching Barcelona as long as u want.... everyone knows Messi has been the one carrying Barcelona since the past 3 seasons.... If he decides not to carry Barcelona this time around, we can't complain...he clearly wanted to leave...




So y is he not carrying them now?? Barcas biggest mistake was selling suarez... without a player of suarez calibre, messi will remain crap... iniesta, xavi , Daniel alves, neymar and suarez really helped messi in barca...suarez was the remaining general and since then, messi has been activated to Argentinas messi

Check out the Spanish national team between 08 and 2013... that was barcas best years ... its very clear that those players I mentioned were the reason messi was on top of his game... even though messi is Argentina top scorer, he has never scored really important goals ... 70 percent of his goals for Argentina came in friendlys... only a person without reason or fanatic will put messi in top 5 ... i ask again, whats the difference between messi , cryuff and di Stefano...

Please make me understand....what do u mean by Spanish national team of 08 to 13....how did it affect Barca please?....and who are the 'those players'.....u mentioned Xavi, iniesta, Alves and Neymar.....How does Alves and Neymar relate to the Spain national team...
What are u saying.... explain to me...

But first, don't say what u don't know....do u knw wat 70percent is??..... it's not up to 50percent....OKAY?.... it's 34 goals in friendlies.....or are u tellin me tht the remaining 37 goals aren't important....SMH

Dou know that friendlies are opportunities for countries to compete....outside their league.... that's exactly when Argentina plays against most top fifa ranking countries like Spain, france, Belgium etc....and yes, Messi has goals against them....guy it's okay that u hate Messi but abeg cut the guy slack.....even Pele no score as much as Messi against. Conmebol teams.... Messi has scored against all Conmebol countries and still has a good amount of his goals against Europe teams.....calm down bro...

How many times has Ronaldo scored against a Conmebol team??....Say u score 1000 goals against Lithuania no mean say u score Important goals for ur team....

Finally don't ask me this--- "I ask again, whats the difference between messi , cryuff and di Stefano"....ask urself....if u need some clarification, then ask....not asking me to differentiate players

I see someone who observe everyone in every team as more matured than one who could not differentiate who played specific role in a match. Messi is good but poor in Argentina.

U just wasted precious time posting total crap... i dont even know whr to start from cos u are totally confused... u talk about goals...what has his goals achieved for him in national team... every great South American player should at least win the copa America... cruyff won 3 CL titles and multiple league titles and also lead Holland to the final of the WC but never won any international trophy... same as di Stefano... di stefanos highest goal scorer in the CL was a record for half a century b4 it was broken by raul... messi like them both hasnt achieved nothing internationally

See ur life.....Every great South American player should at least win the Copa America.....yet Messi is above Ronaldo who has won Euro in the list..or Is Messi not a Copa American player??
And also Cruyff and Alfredo de Stefano who didn't win shit are in the List of greatest players based on people's vote all over the world.....u see now that ur bitter opinion doesn't matter.... People that recognise greatness are very much different from you.....

The earlier u start accepting the fact that Messi will always be above Ronaldo on every poll, the better for u.

Yes.....it was Ronaldo vs Juventus in Champions League Final and
It was also Ronaldo vs Liverpool in Champions League 2018
Lol....see this comedian attaching Madrid Team Laurel to Ronaldo's individual record.....yes he achieved it all alone.....let him achieve it all alone now in Juve na..
Baba can't even see Semi finals

Since he left Madrid....Tell me what he achieved for himself o?.....I don't even need to add the one he achieved for Juve....cause he's achieved nothing for them.


because Ronaldo hasn't won a golden boot since 2015, my man is giving excuses of the incompetent...

Also, I want u to be around on the day of Messi's retirement....so that u can erase the other years of his career and leave only last 6 years...
