Cheers Phil , I'll keep that in mind when talking about Messiah . It's just a pity the two greatest players of the modern era are both on the stage at the same time . Well it's not a pity it's great to see but you probably won't get 2 players of that calibre playing at the same time for a very long time . Right lads .... Who has the better looking missus between them ? See how f**k ye really are ?

Back in the 80s we had Maradona, Zico and Platini threading the boards at the same time.

Don't mind Philly.

He thinks Neymer is the greatest of them all.
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.

Rooney has changed his tune like a lot of people in the last 2 years
in 2012 he was calling Messi the best every - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jU0fCkvxy50

I myself have always said Messi was better, but in 2013 and 2014 its hard to deny Ronaldo the Ballon D'Or

Lionel Messi's father Jorge says the prospect of his son leaving Barcelona is "not even on the table", after an interview the 27-year-old gave earlier this week prompted speculation about a move away. (Daily Mail) 

Double Maxim without doubt the greatest drink in the world

I think its fair to say Messi started off at an incredibly high standard and has kept that standard for a number of years. He has some ups and down periods but over a whole season he has always been amazing.

But hats off to Ronaldo, I believe he works extremely hard and gets 10% better each season. He has been the better player than Messi the last few seasons.

Both are in the top 5 players I have seen in my lifetime - the others being Phat Ronaldo, Zidane, Figo

You really think Figo was that good, or are you talking about players you've seen play in the flesh?

Never seen in the flesh. He was just one of those players that always seem to have so much time on the ball, he could beat a player with skill not pace and scored/assisted some great goals.

He was a brilliant player to watch as every time he got the ball you expected something to happen. A bit like Ronaldinho before he became fat.
