I would argue that Ronaldo is a way more complete player, actually. He can shoot with both feet (his 'weaker foot' is still better than most people's stronger foot), is fantastic in the air, physically stronger, taller. It's hard to find any weakness to his game.

Ronaldo's free kicks get worse every season tbh.
 
Hope Neuer wins, the salty tears will save football.



Pub defenders? His generation had some of the best defenders in history and goalkeepers for that matter. And this is when not only they were two footed and skilful but were allowed to kick the shit out of you. Santos played European teams and these pub league players seemed to do just fine every time. Somehow the pub league players kept winning the world cup.

Compare that to the defenders of this generation? Who are the best CB's currently? Christ.

Having said that, Messi and Ronaldo (and Robben, imo) are so far ahead of any other player that it doesn't really matter which one of them has the edge over the other.

I disagree. Yes he can shoot with both feet, so can Messi. He is stronger in the air I agree, but him beeing physically stronger doesn't translate to his game compared to Messi. It's a lot tougher to get Messi off the ball than Ronaldo. The major weakness to his game compared to Messi is that he is a reciever, a finisher. Messi could act perfectly as a #10, Ronaldo couldn't. Messi has a better understanding of the game, better insight.

Dayuuummm @ Ramos' lady O.O

Man these guys must be having amazing lives T_T

Edit: Wow people were pretty.. quiet when Messi was signing autographs and were chanting "Ronaldo"
Edit 2: Ronaldo arrived, people are going berserk.
 
Ought, Messi has the better girlfriend.

And the uglier suit

Cant even buy a proper styling assistent

Sent too much of his wealth to the tax havens

Has to wear some ridiculous shit so that the media will also write about him instead of only the best football player of the world, Cristiano Ronaldo
 
Still undecided on whether to vote for James Rodriguez or Robin van Persie for best goal.

James's goal is just perfectly executed, the kind of goal that knocks you off your seat.

But van Persie's is just incredibly intelligent, and a very rare kind of goal.

I think I'm gonna go with van Persie.

Why not Roche?

I agree as Messi gets older and loses his pace I could see him transitioning into a Xavi/Iniesta role his passing ability is insane, The other difference is Madrid play a counter attack style which gives Ronaldo space to run into whereas Messi usually faces 10 defenders because of Barcas possession based play.
 
Cristina is an awesome footballing machine, flamboyant, whiny, winky, but it is just all him.

No fake humble messy shit who disappoints children and fans.

Cristina ftw!
 
I can't believe David Luiz made the World XI he is a huge liability, the other three are fine but Diego Godin should have been there. Simeone should have been Coach of the Year as well, what he did with Atletico Madrid was phenomenal.
 
Heh.

Anthony Richardson ‏@AmhRichardson 6m
Sorry guys, I was in charge of the FIFPRO World XI but watched literally zero football this year. Thought David Luiz would be a safe choice​

Did they forget Brazil got absolutely pounded by Germany? Sure, Thiago Silva was suspended, but fucking lol.
