Yeah I might’ve worded it badly in the original post on 2nd look 🤝

Yeah I can dig that, both world class in different ways. Both walk into any team in the history of football in my opinion. Shame we never saw them line up together

I didn’t say he was objectively a better goalscorer. I said he scores more often than Ronaldo, which is objectively true. Subjectively, I think Messi is the better player but the point of my post was to mock the use of the statistic not use it to prove Messi is better

I agree I think most people have a preference but neither is objectively better. Glad to have to seen them both play live. Messi only once but Ronaldo many times

Yeah both giants of the game however you slice it

I know there’s variables, like how Messi has played out wide his entire career whereas Ronaldo has spent many years at centre forward. However, my point is just that it shouldn’t be automatically given that Ronaldo is a better goalscorer in a debate

They are. The top statistic includes Saudi and USA goals. The bottom statistic doesn’t. Messi has more goals per minute using both metrics

Yeah Lacey likely the closest to breaking through

Oh yeah no doubt JJ and Kai are at least 2/3 seasons away

Fair enough but have to disagree generally, Barcelona days especially showed his talents, his numbers were immense and he stepped up in big games. 2015 when they won the treble he scored home and away in the quarters and semis and then again in the final of the champs league

Bar wolves it looks fairly tough but definitely easier than the 11 we’ve played so far
