I'd like to see Messi go to another league where the team hasn't been playing together for the past 5 years. He's got the 2 best midfielders in the world to support him in Xavi and Iniesta. I don't doubt that Messi is an amazing player, because he clearly is, I just find it hard to believe you can call him better then Ronaldo when they're both absolutely magnificent. Obviously there are some things that both are better at then the other, but they kind of balance each other out and it makes them both eye candy for true football fans.

CR7 is a beast, anyone who knows football can see that, he's an ultimate athlete and has proven himself in EPL and laliga, his stats speak for themselves, but I guess if you're one of those youtube Messi is god omgzz!!11!!! kind of dudes


Ofc he is a beast. One would be crazy or ignorant to claim otherwise.
But that just shows what a marvel Messi is.
Also he has 3 Ballons against 1 for Cr7.

If you take that silly award seriously you're a fool.

Because top coaches, captains and media representatives are ignorant in football.

Not when fifa intentionally snubs out players and make voting for certain individuals not valid.
Scroll down to the Netherlands if you want to have a nice laugh.


Invalid vote? Are you assuming these were just not allowed by the evil overlord of FIFA, or do you actually have some evidence that these weren't the Netherlands just fucking up their vote?

The thing with Cr7 is that he is just a great player. But not a leader, he's not a player that will blast an awesome goal when his team is stack on 0-0.

Do you know how many goals has he scored against the big four in the island? I don't have the exact number atm, but it's something close to 15. 15 goals in 6 years?
Almost all of his goals were scored in convincing ManU victories over weaker teams.
Messi has scored 13 goals only vs Real, not even counting the other derbies.

His weak mentality clearly shows in the champions league scorer sheet, where every team is somewhat strong and willing for a fight.
Messi has scored 49 goals and Cr7 only 34 and he's 3 years older than Leo.

Also, as a last jab against his fans I'll leave this,xP

im not a fan of neither, to me maradona was better than them without even a question but you can't compare messi to ronaldo the same way with guardiola and mourinho. Playing in the best team of all times sure as hell boosts messi's performances wich is something ronaldo doesnt have.

What makes Messi a leader on Barca? I watch almost every Barca game and I don't see him as being a leader for the team.

Ronaldo has in 3 seasons almost got up to the amount of goals Lionel Messi has scored in 7 seasons, Messi scores more in the champions league but scores less in the Spanish league which shouldn't make sense because the teams he is playing are far easier then in the champions league.

I agree that he hasn't been as good against Barca, but not against other top teams, and recently he's clearly fixed whatever mental block he had because he's scored in his last 3 - 4 games against them.

Also he's clutch when he needs to be:

Reina came out and caught the ball, Perch stuck a leg out and tripped him up. Reina then get's up and moves his head towards Perch's, Perch goes down. Perch got a yellow for the trip, Reina a red for the 'headbutt.'

Bit pathetic really.

What would stop such behavior is give the person simulating the act the same punishment.

Yep, those three are such bad players. Kenny, along with basically every player except Suarez, Enrique, Gerrard and maybe Reina/Skrtel/Johnson should leave if Liverpool want to ever reach their "usual" level again.

We all know they're top votes for that year were sniejder. Yet their top votes were invalid and that's the same year fifa changed the format of the ballon d'or and added the opportunity for players and coaches to put their vote in. Also, i dont care about ronaldo. I just felt Sniejder deserved atleast a top 3 spot with xavi and iniesta that year.

While I agree with Sneijder being the player who deserved the ballon d'or most in 2010 (CL with Inter, WC finals with the Netherlands) or maybe Iniesta (deciding goal @WC finals) their votes were invalid cause they voted for their own coutrymen (Sneijder/Robben) which - as far as I know - isn't allowed (at least for players/coaches, for journalists it doesn't seem to matter)
