Lionel Messi vs Cristiano Ronaldo

[Flawless*]

The Euro final where Ronaldo failed to show up and they got pwned by Greece? The WC semis where he failed to show up and dived all over the pitch like a slag

Ronaldo is the ultimate fair weather player. Name a time against a top side when he's bailed his team out. Im talking an elite team not fuking Porto or something.

Revisionism at its finest,

Ronaldo was immense for Portugal in 2004 and 2006. His was their key player along with Deco. His was definitely one of the stands out players in Euro 2004 and the best player for Portugal in 2006. While Ronaldo was playing in the Semi final of a world cup, Messi was warming the ****ing bench

He couldn't do anything against Greece. And your boy Cashley had him in his back pocket in both tournaments. Name an elite team where he's made the difference when his side were in trouble or not dominating?

Lol at people saying Ronaldo is better than Messi. Ronaldo's a great player but he has never consistently done it in the big games.

Messi has scored 60 goals this season and he actually passes the ball unlike Ronnie..

I think Flawless must be addicted to FIFA 12 cos that is the only place Ronaldo is better than Messi.

[-Lowkey-]

Ronaldo is not a big game player never has been never will be.

Messi has proven he is the better player it shouldn't even be up for debate.

The exact same thing can be said about Messi,

However, I can prove with facts that Ronaldo has been effective when his team doesn’t dominate possession or a match. Against Barcelona, they don’t have possession yet Ronaldo has scored 6 times against them. Against Arsenal in Semi final of UCL, Ronaldo scores twice to kill the game and Arsenal held majority of the possession. Against AC Milan in Semi final scoring the opener. Scoring the semi final of Euro 2004 against the Dutch.

Messi would have bailed Barca out if they was in a similar position as Real today

That is such a stupid example.

Where was Messi when Barca got owned by Getafe and Osasuna? I could easily say Ronaldo would of bailed Barca out on those situations.
