The best description I’ve heard about Neymar is that “Neymar is a player who unfortunately got stuck between two different generations of football”. He rose to the top during a time where football was making a transition and was the first modern KZbin sensation of football, but in terms of style of play, belonged in the previous generation of players like Dinho. I think Neymar’s biggest issue was realizing the game was more changing towards a system based game instead of letting your star players cook with freedom. He looks like the type of guy who just wants to have fun on the pitch because he’s absolutely elite technically anyways. Probably had enough of all the coaches suppressing his talent. In terms of ability Neymar’s easily clear imo, but Ronaldo’s consistency and records + ability have to count for something in these type of debates.

[@paulcasey4282]

How about the fact that Messi is a playmaker who scores more goals per match than Ronaldo who is a more out and out goal scorer. He said how Messi dictates the play. For example the Man City team now, Haaland is getting all the praise but it’s De Bruyne who is their best player this season. People who don’t watch football properly will just go on about Haaland because he’s the one on the scoresheet but it’s players like Bernardo Silva and De Bruyne who are the reason why Haaland is unstoppable.

[@ShootingsBootings]

@@paulcasey4282 We all know their playing styles is different, using ur measurements I could talk about Ronaldo assisting way more than Xavi and Iniesta combined and also how he’s the top UCL assister? They are both non human in both categories it’s a joke to say anyone else comes close to them

[@paulcasey4282]

@@ShootingsBootings If you go off stats and numbers then I get why you would have Ronaldo as comparable to Messi but if you watch games then it’s not close. Messi doesn’t play in the same attacking zones as Ronaldo. He drops deep to pick the ball up like a midfielder would do. He’s a playmaker who then scores a tonne of goals. If we are just talking UCL then yes Ronaldo is better as he has won more but he still has a worse goals per game and assists per game measure. Your point about Iniesta not getting assist like Ronaldo is a great one as it is harder to get numbers when you play not as far forward like Iniesta. Messi also doesn’t play far forward despite what his numbers say. You are also cherry picking stats to suit your agenda but even then, they don’t hold up when we adjust the fact that Ronaldo is older and has played more games.

I didn't even come here knowing who Sharky, Starz, Faysal etc are. Came here as a new neutral and look forward every upload. I do think though Sharky, I know it's tough to probably ever have Shaun back on, but I think when the time is right, that's something you should look into. I think people can forgive him, however there's also other aspects like sponserships and relations etc. that obviously can be damaged. He can have a new role and not be there every week of course, or even expand the table on certain topics and episodes, although 4 people seems to have a more intimate effect which is perfect. Reason I say that and I don't think too many would disagree, it just felt 'right' to have Shaun, Starz and Sharky as the main trio but at the same time that takes nothing away from Fayz!

Neymar was not even in the conversation of best players for years.. He has never been the best player in a single season.. He is no where close.. I strongly believe that KDB and Modric have been the two best players after Messi and Ronaldo for the past 6-7 seasons.. And my fav. teams are Barca and Arsenal.. One more thing, Real Madrid WAS the best team of last season. To say that they were not is kind of disrespectful.

Sharkys argument makes no sense, you have to look at stats because the best players are the effective ones, the ones that win you games, if you only go eye-test then you might as well put Bernardo Silva up there in the goat debate and you wouldn’t do that. His De Bruyne argument also doesn’t make sense. If Gerrard is a better player then why would De Bruyne be the goat at the end of his career. Why would it matter what kdb does now to the end of his career if Gerrard is a better player anyway

[@adnanlone4467]

@@roronoalaw7772 lemme reply to everything you’ve mentioned. Messi has more chances created because Barcelona’s ideology was to keep the ball , which obv meant Messi would be on the ball more , hence giving him the opportunity to create chances. Whereas on the other hand , for majority of his career in united and Real Madrid , ronaldo played in a team which played a counter attacking style of football. This obviously limited ronaldo’s chances to create. However I ain’t denying that Messi is a better creator , in fact I think he’s overall more balanced. Ronaldos the goat for me , because of his ability to step up when it matters the most. I’ll explain this further… Now those who say Messi has a better goal ratio are idiots. Even tho it’s fax , they lack significant context. Ronaldo used to play as a right midfielder till 07/08 , which deteriorated his goal ratio. I think there’s a stat where at a point messi was 28 goals ahead of him in the CL. Also , ronaldos done it in 3 different leagues, we saw how bad messi’s goal ratio is in league 1 Thirdly , talking about more motm awards , I’d take a player who scores and makes a difference in big games , rather than someone who gets a man of the match against the likes of eibar , levante etc. Not saying Messi hasn’t performed at a big stage , but not even remotely close to the levels of Ronny

I’ll admit that Messi and Neymar are the two best forwards who can dominate a game even without scoring. They can impact a game through dribbling past players and taking the ball in deep areas of the pitch and make key passes. They can play the roles of a midfielder and an attacker all at once.
