Goalnando >>> Messist

[apalisoc_9]

Because outside of those three, who actually is competing?

None lf the German, Spanish, French players are going to win it due to club football....So its between Ronaldo or Messi so long as they reach the QF.

[dfens]

Unless Ronaldo or Messi embaarssess themselves in the WC, I doubt it matters because of the voting system.

I suppose if one does reach the final then yes it would make a difference. Something like Messi making the final even though real wins the Champions league. Or Egypt going to Quarters and winning Champions league while Messi and Ronaldo dissapoint.

son it's been a two man race for years. salah is great but not at that level.

[apalisoc_9]

son it's been a two man race for years. salah is great but not at that level.

He has the hype going for him and the offchance he wins the Champions league and they reach the semis he is going to gain massive traction.

His at 50 Goals contributed now in 42 games. Thats numbers only Ronaldo and Messi usually achieve.

son you can get whatever hype you want, this is football and none of that storyline nba faggotry works here. Penaldo and misty are on their own tier, they provide absolute elite production, spectacle and leadership. Plus their rivalry.

No but multiple finals appearance and dominating Serie A. They were on the cusp and now getting bounced earlier than they have in a decade and barely holding on to a CL spot. Not even blaming Ronaldo here, but a huge letdown compared to what expectations were when they first signed him.

Both Messi and Ronaldo are wasting away on painfully mediocre teams right now.

Both of them should join forces and play on the same team TBH... Now THAT would be entertaining...

Serie A is a farmers league, you get 35+ year olds scoring like crazy in that league all the time. It had Quagliarella lead the league in scoring recently. Roma just conceded 6 (!) goals combined to the 15th best team in Serie A (Spezia) only recently. They’re painfully mediocre if we are being honest.

Ronaldo is definitely having a good season though, but no teams in that league are worth writing home about. La liga is in a rough spot as well. Their top 4 is the worst of the past ten years if not more.

Without modric and kroos and Ramos he can’t carry teams to new heights. But hey, he scored a penalty vs Lyon and the crowd goes mild :lmao

Messi’s teammates conceded 4 goals vs Liverpool. Two can play that game. Ronaldo is losing to mediocre sides in CL now that modric and kroos aren’t behind him.

The fact that Ter Stegen was getting MOTM despite conceding 4 tells how many times the backline has doomed this club in recent years. Alba, Pique, and Busquets should never ever start for this team. Major change should have happened after Anfield. Messi was not the issue. Gonna take years to fix this backline.

Look, you guys come up with excuses for Ronaldo (who is the greatest cl player of all time) when his teams choke against Ajax and Lyon. And Juventus were HEAVILY favoured against Ajax and Lyon. But Ronaldo has NEVER had to deal with a defense this bad. Who did Lyon have? Ajax also didn’t have anyone close to mbappe’s level.

And I’m not even saying the loss today isn’t bad (it’s humiliating, imagine if Neymar played) but the reality is I agree Messi was pathetic against Roma. That was the worst match of his career in that second leg.

Today, despite Barcelona’s failings he was still the best attacking player and it wasn’t even close:

https://www.whoscored.com/Matches/1516650/Preview/Europe-Champions-League-2020-2021-Barcelona-Paris-Saint-Germain

As for griezmann, he’s been a bust. He’s played better since the new year, but I can hardly remember the last match against a decent side where you say “Griezmann outshone Messi”. At least with Neymar you can say he was Barca’s best player in the psg comeback.

Ronaldo is getting knocked out by the Lyons of the world, Juventus are barely hanging on to a top 4 spot and have their lowest trophy count in years. I have zero issue saying Ronaldo has a better mentality than Messi. However what I’m hoping even his biggest fans have finally learned is that no one player can do it himself. At least when Ronaldo played poorly/went missing Eder, Ramos, bale, and Benzema had crucial goals. For Messi you had it sometimes on recent years with Suarez, but only had one away CL goal over a 3 year period. Even this year in CL with a new team Suarez has been bad (amazing in the league though)

And this is why I always say Messi and Ronaldo deserve better than their current squads. They are wasting away with teams who have a low ceiling. At least Ronaldo’s team can defend. I mean Barca scored 4 against Roma, 3 against Liverpool, and even if it’s just 2 against Bayern that’s more than any other team put past them in CL. Which isn’t to say I thought Barca’s attack was great against Bayern. But the underlying trend here is that the defense is beyond atrocious. Ronaldo has never had a defense this terrible. I honestly don’t think if you swapped Ronaldo with Messi on this current Barca squad they’d be beating Liverpool or Bayern. Ronaldo wouldn’t be getting service from anyone on Barca outside of low crosses from Alba because Messi is the service. Messi has been papering over so many cracks on this squad. I actually think his 2019 season was crazy underrated despite him winning ballon d’or because that team had zero business winning the league or being a goal away from a CL final.

I’m Barca till the death and wish Messi the best when he leaves, but this team’s defense is a dumpster fire. And until that gets solved these humiliations will always continue to happen.

The 2nd half of Midget's career without Xavi and Iniesta is nowhere near GOAT caliber. Nothing but choke jobs without Xavi and Iniesta holding his hand. Absolute shambles :lmao

Bizarre Laporte never got the call up, but he seems to be out of the city rotation as well. Varane has his moments of being silly, but I'd easily take him over Umtiti/Lenglet. We just have a fetish for under performing french players :lol

Thanks. Hopefully, Pep doesn't change his tactics for the QFs like last year and City will have a chance this year. I wish they were a little more clinical in front of the goal but their defense has made up for it in a big way. As it pertains to Eric Garcia, he's a decent team defender but his individual defense leaves something left to be desired. I'm really not too sad to see him go but he's only 19 and should Improve. Barcelona is going to have to be patient with him.

Also, I like Messi but I don't think it's a good idea for city to sign him because they'll almost surely miss out on Haaland. Right now, Haaland > two years of Messi.

I agree Haaland is a better long term prospect. Are you guys even aiming for haaland? I know Aguero is probably gone this season and Jesus is hit or miss. I’m just amazed with Jesus misfiring, sterling being just OK and KDb missing some time yo-you guys haven’t missed a step. Dias deserves EPL POY

Yeah, Haaland's dad played for City so there's a connection. The problem is I think City want Messi for non-football related reasons. Messi at his age is still seen as a cash cow and the Abu Dhabi group want to cash in. I think Aguero is gone after the season and City will be looking for a replacement. No way can they afford both Haalabd and Messi without blowing past FFP. And Yeah, Jesus isn't your prototypical striker. He's a better dribbker and passed than Aguero but he's nowhere near the finisher. Sterling has been blah this season, loses the ball too easily, terrible first touches. Luckily for City, Gundogan, Foden, Cancelo and Bernardo Silva have been playing out of their minds. Defensively, Dias and Stones have been as good as it gets.

Messi with a masterclass against Sevilla. Top scorer for the calendar year although outside of Sevilla it has been against mostly mediocre sides. Still, he’s coming around nicely.

He [Ronaldo] has another year left in his contract, Juventus signed him to win the Champions League, but they have had worst results since he arrived," Cassano said, per Football Italia (https://twitter.com/footballitalia/status/1365617363320786944)."They would have won Serie A titles also without him. It was the wrong project. For 120 years, winning was the only thing that mattered at Juventus. It is still an obligation, but they tried to change their skin with Sarri and Andrea [Pirlo].
“Ronaldo has nothing to do with Pirlo’s ideas. He will carry on scoring because he can do it even sitting. He cuts inside from the left and can destroy the goal and his headers are unique.
“Andrea wants to build the action from the back, he wants to press high on the pitch. Ronaldo can decide games, but he doesn’t participate much. I think he did badly in these years unless they manage to win the Champions League.”

Juve sold Cancelo to City for just £27 mil and he's arguably the best full-back in the world right now :lol That tells you all you need to know about Juve's management.

Juve splurged on De Ligt (who has yet to live up to the hype) and signed a bunch of rejects and washed up players from other big clubs, through free transfers :lol

Now, the club's just hoping Ronaldo has one last great CL run in him to make up for their incompetence :lol

Real talk Bynumite, Messi has had some bad chokes but Barca are insanely dysfunctional. Their president just got arrested and this is their second president to have been arrested in the last ten years. This is Ronaldo’s first time being on an incompetent team, Madrid always was very well run, same with United. I’m hoping now you can show a tiny bit more sympathy how frustrating playing for a wildly incompetent club can be. To go from the midfield Madrid had to whatever the hell Juventus has is depressing for Ronaldo. You get a once in a lifetime type player and you decide someone with zero experience as a manager in Pirlo is the way go? Like what? At least Zidane had some time with the second division in Spain to get some reps in. Both these guys Messi and Ronaldo are wasting away their twilight years with these terribly run clubs. I’m die hard for Barca, and I wish Messi the best wherever he goes next, but he and Ronaldo need to jump ship ASAP.

How do you feel about zidane? Is he not originally Algerian? I guess less so than Benzema technically? Benzema and Mahrez linking up would’ve been amazing.

I’m happy Barca are getting some of these players on a free transfer, but we need to sign defenders. Also really worried that Koeman may continue with this flurry of Dutch signings. He’s just not good enough tactically.

By the way Mbappe’s mother is Algerian (his dad is from Cameroon)
