very good chart... if only statistics could tell half the tale

Indeed..I've watched the match against Getafe again and it's impressive the number of chances Messi creates for the others..if it would have been any other footballer, we would have been impressed with his performance, but with Leo we know that he is capable of more. And we're never satisfied.

love how they conveniently tailored the stats to make cr look superior... lets add in that messi is above cr in the following:
  • pass success % (84.1, 80.9)
  • assists (14, 11)
  • interceptions (.6, .5)
  • key passes per game (2.6, 1.6)
  • successful dribbles per game (4.8, 1.8)
  • accurate through balls per game (1.5, .5)
  • accurate long balls per game (1.4, 1.2)
see what i did there?

at any rate, anyone who's anyone knows there is no comparing the one and only Leo Messi to CR, as good as he may be.

messi really is from another planet.

Let's not forget cl stats, am I naive to guess that Messi's cl stats are at least twice as good as cr's?

true. they completely omitted how messi outclassed ronaldo in every department in europe's top competition.. oh and the fact that, overall, leo has more goals than cr... but then again... the numbers dont do justice

Yep.

I think its clear as a goal scorer Ronaldo is fantastic in Liga football, but when it comes to creating chances for others, playing the game on a wider scale and moving into Champions League level, Messi is far superior.

Ronaldo = A great goal scorer
Messi = The best there's ever been at every aspect of the game. Makes the beautiful game more beutiful. (Although I am slightly biased. ;))

The Messi-Ronaldo debates are so pointless. If you ever watch a football game without shit in your eyes it's pretty clear who the superior player is.
Can't believe Culés still want to argue about it.

Barçapocalypse NOW!
The thing is that the overall press insists on comparing them, I guess it's good for bussiness... It gets even worse when Cristina scores a hat trick or a long range effort/freekick, suddenly all the balls he has sent flying to the upper decks of stadiums are immediatly forgotten and we hear terms like "rockets" and "tomahawk" and bullshit like that...

When Cristiano scores a hattrick, he's being compared to Messi.
When Messi scores a hattrick, he's being compared to Maradona, Pelé and Di Stefano.
