Ronaldo’s record in the Champions League is impressive despite the fake tan. Yes but where would the fun be without the comparisons. I do respect Ronaldo. It's a good job they're both around as they bring out the best of one another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie20 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 For me Messi is much more of a team player whilst still having scored an amazing number of goals. Be interesting to see a comparison of their assists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 You can have a debate about who's the better goal scorer - Ronaldo or Messi - because both have netted loads. You can't have a debate about who's the better player though, as Messi is better at every other aspect in the game - dribbling, passing, vision, assists, teamwork, movement, ball control etc. etc. At the same time, Harry Kane is currently a better goal scorer than Ronaldo. Is there anythng Ronaldo brings to the table that Harry Kane doesn't? I'm not so sure. I honestly maintain this thought... If Messi and Ronaldo played in the same team, Ronaldo would probably score about 80 goals a season. He's a better finisher than Suarez, and Messi would give him at least three excellent chances to score per game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inverurie Ram Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Watching the Chelsea v Hull City game, you just wonder what all the fuss about getting promoted to the Premiership is, I like our Rams winning a shed load of games in the Championship.

Inverurie Ram Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Hull City miss a penalty and 3 or 4 good chances to get back in that one. https://www.hullcitytigers.com/news/articles/2018/201718-chelsea-a-triple-trawler-tragedy-support/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the moment you look like finally establishing yourself as a challenger for the European spots, such as Southampton, one of the big boys takes your manager away and half your squad. That must be the killer. Falling in love with a squad of players only to see it ruthlessly picked apart. Van Dijk, Lallana, Clyne, Mane and Lovren all went to the same team! Then add Wanyama, Schneiderlin, Luke Shaw, Calum Chambers... Must suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a clear foul on the PSG defender leading up to that goal that he never gave Real are struggling even with dodgy officiating this year though. I think it's up for an English club to win. I think any of Spurs, City or Liverpool could win it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At that price you have to ask why they didn’t just buy him up front, with the money they’ve made from their parent club Liverpool, no reason why they couldn’t. Same with Fulham and Martin.
