I think of Ronaldo and Messi as Jaedong and Flash, I think the comparison has a lot of mileage.


Yeah everyone knows Flash is better except Jaedong fans :p .


my point is that they are both so insanely far out ahead of everyone else, it may be possible to say one is better than the other but it doesn't really matter because both of them light up the game more regularly and spectacularly than anyone else playing right now.


yea it really doesnt ..

Actually yes, its kinda unbiased because i hate barcelona :D Also i can say Maradona is the best player of all time, Ronaldo (Nazario) best striker and Buffon best active goalkeeper (yeah, not Casillas), im not biased towards Spain, i just watch them playing on my league and thats my opinion.

Netherlands were absolute garbage here, only comparable with Ireland's mediocricity against Spain.

The only thing working in Oranjes was Van der Vaart and his long shots. Rest of the team should beg their supporters for forgiveness. Willems could've easily picked red card; Van der Wiel was CR's punching bag, Vlaar's skill made Jaap Stam's oldschool toughness look like pinnacle of genius; Sneijder had no idea who to play with; the only guy Arjen Robben got on well with was Arjen Robben; Huntelaar looked like extinct species and so, and so, and so on...

Deserved 0 points and ticket home for those 11 individuals who only slightly rensembled a football team.

First 20 minutes where again splendid, thought it would happen when the first goal happened and shortly after Germany scored as well.

Of course after that it all went downhill again.

Looked like Netherlands where 1 of the worst teams conditioning wise and of course our defense is terrible.
If you think you're good, you suck. If you think you suck, you're getting better.

no puedo contestar, can't argue, I was just considering the CR7 Messi comparisons to be honest.

This is just.. what ? How could anyone call that drug addict the best player of all time...

Forca Portugal ! We're gonna have a tough game against the Chech Republic but I know if we play well as a team we can win !

At least we played better than in the other two matches...

Anyway, I've been wondering about this, if we'd put the winner of the Champion's League against Spain (for example), how would that go?

Yea! I still consider Ronaldo the best player. The real Ronaldo, not this nancy from Portugal.

Yeah, in spain you have fabregas, xavi and iniesta in the midfield and it's already probably the best midfield ever existed. Then you add messi in barcelona and it's just ridiculous, feels like cheating.

National team almost has no chance against top clubs. Lets say Spain/Germany/Holland vs Barcelona/Real Madrid/ ManU(assume that you can duplicate player so clubs play at their full strenght)

Because clubs are like all-star team with un-limit players pool and a nation has quite limited option. Just look at ManC, basically a team that have to fight for relegation but with alot of money they became the EPL champion in like 3 seasons.

That Willelms is shit how is he the Dutch starting left back? He can't keep the ball and doesn't know where to stand. The dutch team didn't seem to know what they were doing this game, too many attacking players but nobody to control the middle of the pitch or supply all the players upfront. Bringing on Affelay for Willelms was a strange decision I know the kid is shit but bringing on a forward for the left back toppled an already unbalanced side.

Ronaldo played well today but i still think he is overrated, especially his speed he's not half as fast as people think.


Let me just start my post by saying that I don't like Cristiano Ronaldo very much, but that last sentence is just Wrong. Cristiano Ronaldo is the fastest active football player without the ball!
He's a perfect athlete..

No he's not and you don't have a clue what you're talking about. There's lots of players out there who can run sub 11 100 metres, Ronaldo can't. Not that 100 metre speed matters, acceleration over short distances is more important in football, and Ronaldo isn't that quick in this department either, which is why you don't see him outright beat a player very often.

It would still go the same way, but Spain would struggle even more to score if at all.
