Ronaldo all the way for me .... Messi was the best and when he was the best 3-4 years ago he never stepped up a level again . People can say he couldn't step up as he had it all but the last 3 years Ronaldo has stepped it up and is a more complete player . Real Madrid's all time scoring legend Raul is just 2 goals ahead of Ronaldo and he has still plenty left in the tank .

Messi never stepped up .

What exactly more did you want him to do?

Ronaldo had a smashing World Cup to copper-fasten his number one spot .

Don't get me wrong, I like Ronaldo and both players are head and shoulders above everyone else.

It was far across the sea,
When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

To be fair to Ronaldo he wasn't fit in the world cup.

There's no doubt Messi has done it on more vital occasions than Ronaldo imo. It was Bale more than Ronaldo that stepped up in the final against Athletico in the last half hour I thought.

Messi can just create space out of nothing and under severe pressure which I don't think Ronaldo does to the same extent but then Ronaldo is better in the air. They're both fantastic but I'd have Messi ahead of him.

Ronaldo has the next Ballon D'Or wrapped up leaving him 1 less than Messi & has a strong team around him & getting stronger . Don't forget Messi has played only for Barca and with one of the greatest teams ever around him . Ronaldo played in a United team that he single handedly won games & trophys for . In terms of stepping up ... Messi was best & Ronaldo was 2nd best but Ronaldo was driven to succeed & he wanted to be recognised as the best in the world & stepped up his game & is a more completed player . A lot of people hate the way Ronaldo is cocky & arrogant nut we are measuring the quality of player not the quality of man . I'm sure wee Messi understands

Messi is one of the greatest no doubt. As is Ronaldo. Don't know why some people cant appreciate both players for what they are. They are football legends already.

Hey Butch, I'm sure the wee fella lies awake at night contemplating the idiotic ramblings of the gobsh*tes on this forum. As does CR3 no doubt.

I know everybody will have a different opinion on matters in football but i find it amazing how people can compare Ronaldo or anybody else to Messi. The little man is by far the greatest player that has and probably ever will step onto a football field. Messi's dribbling,reactions,acceleration and technique is simply unbelievable. Ronaldo has great traits with the power, speed & finishing he's a machine but i think there will be more players that will be similiar to him with enough dedication. I find it hard to believe anybody will come along that can beat 4-5 players then dink it over the keeper as easy as Messi does. I believe he's the greatest ever.
YESSSS! IT'S THERE
