Have you guys seen today madrid newspapers(as and marca) covers?
Unbelievable. The covers saying gold Griezmann and a tiny spot talking about Messi. After that legendary exhibition...
No way, its impossible not to laugh at it.

I thought it was just a typical Messi performance bar with the first 15 minutes where he was covering alot of ground. That's how good he is. Normal performance can be seen as GOAT display, and that mainly because our nation (England) are so fucking up our own arses we only hail great performances if it' against a Prem team.

So he equalled Ronaldo for most CL goals for one club

127 games, 105 goals.

Apparently Ronaldo did it in 101... once upon a time he was miles behind Messi, seriously the Club fucked Messi over good and proper.

Are we going to ignore that CR played for Man Utd too and arrived in Real Madrid when he already was an established World Class player and BdO winner while Messi's UCL career started with Barcelona as a young upcoming talent?

Well compare them from when Ronaldo joined Madrid, it's still in Ronaldoi's favour.

Lol what do you mean "still"? That's literally the same comparison you made the first time.

The point is that it was his United career that brings down his stats, which includes the period of time he was still a developing player just like Messi.

 

[sickstar]

Compare them based on their age, it'd be clear as day. Their total club goal isn't that far really, atm.

Messi has 105 CL goals in 127 games, 0.83 Goals/Game Ratio

CR7 has 121 goals in 160 games, 0.76 Goals/ Game Ratio

 

[raskolnikov]

Its crazy how much more matches he has despite Messi nearly playing everything. Same goes for the whole career in general.

When they both retire no one will hand pick certain stats to make one look better than the other.. They will look at their overall stats in which currently Messi has a better game to goal ratio in the CL.

Also worth a mention...

Messi 775 games 627 goals

Ronaldo 923 games 661 goals


Messi is only 34 goals behind the so called greatest scorer of all time.... in 148 less games AND 2 and a half years younger

 

[Blaugrana Bull]

All of a sudden Messi is the one creeping up from behind. What a turn of events.

 

[El Barcelona]

Well deserved 'cl player off the week' for the second time in a row.

It's all in his head. If he keeps showing the same hunger in CL this season he can't be stopped by any defenders.
