      Mak, exactly. Messi is a brilliant footballer, broke so many records in a league where Ronnie scored 310 goals in 291 games and where Freddie Kanoute was made to look world class 😉

      Ronnie as a whole has accomplished so much. Won CL titles and leagues titles, top scorer at various different clubs and leagues, a international trophy for a average Portugal team.

      Messi has yet to reach a CL final without Xavi and Iniesta.

      In terms of honours Messi will come out of top because he played in a 2 team league and now a 1 team league and it is what keeps his record comfortable.

      In terms of wanting to do things the hard way, Ronaldo comes out on top.

        Banjo, I am not disapproving your opinion on who is the better player. You’re entitled to your opinion.

        I disapprove your opinion on Ronaldo only moving for money, when it was Messi who left for PSG because of money. He wasn’t so loyal to his club then and took the easy option.

          Ronaldo has played in 4 leagues in 20 years, stayed at Madrid for 10 years, Banjo…..took a pay cut for his latest move. He could have earned more in the US or elsewhere. Ronaldo likes a challenge.

          Messi wasn’t exactly earning peanuts at Barcelona. He left because they couldn’t afford his substantial wages. He is now on 1m a week at PSG. Only 1 club could seriously afford that and thats where he ended up. He apparently rejected City because they did not match his wage demands.

          There’s only 1 mercenary out of the 2, Messi only stayed at Barcelona for the salary and they had to get rid just to ease their finances, Messi has now ended up at a club which were more than happy to pay those kind of wages. He could have played anywhere for less money, why PSG? 💰

            I cannot imagine Messi accomplishing anything near what he has at Barcelona if he moved to a different league sooner.

            It is easier to build a side around Ronaldo in comparison to Messi imo. Ozil, Di Maria, Kroos, Modric, Carrick, Scholes and many others played their best football when Ronaldo was at his peak.

            Post Xavi and Iniesta, you cannot say the same about Messi’s teammates. Messi has done well in the Spanish league. Ronaldo has done well across Europes biggest leagues.

              Games shouldn’t be going ahead as they are now.

              The clowns at Downing Street have shot themselves in the foot hy limiting attendance or have games behind closed doors. Whatever they decide they will get called out on their hypocrisy and it will be a PR disaster.

              Public safety needs to come 1st and they should put their egos to 1 side and do the right thing.

                Manchester United vs Spurs…..ball went over the line by a metre, yet the linesmen failed to spot it, if he ever needed help, he just had to look at Carrolls reaction.

                  Quality of refs in todays game are shocking.

                  Kane should have been off, Liverpool should have had a penalty. Along with Ederson cleaning out a Newcastle player.

                  You have a tool there to help you get these decisions right. Yet they still some how get them wrong.

                    The reason why nothing is being done sooner in the UK is because the clowns got busted for breaching the rules themselves.
