Sports journalists need controversy for the sake of making programs interesting, but to me--and I daresay to most people who understand football--it was never even a debate. There have been many great goal scorers in football history, though arguably Ronaldo is among the best especially given his longevity. But Messi is one of a kind. Pele and Maradona come in close, but again, neither of them had the longevity Messi has. And what makes him even more special is his humility. If anyone could boast about his achievements, that would be him. Yet he never points to himself. This is because nobody understands better than him that at the end of the day, it's 11 against 11. His goal is never personal. It's always for the team to win. That is what makes him truly great.

Cant compare Messi with Maradona and or Pele, different times, but those who witness the magic of the 3 will chose O rei Pele.

To be fair, Leo has never seen a defensive players and a football style Diego faced regularly. They were murdering him, especially in Italy. Attackers weren't privileged as they have been in the last 2 decades. And Diego NEVER had great players around him as Leo has always had, in Argentina or other squads. That's why different eras shouldn't be compared, it's not fair, usually to the older generations since newer impressions seem stronger.

No digo que 3 copas del mundo ganen automáticamente la carrera por el mejor jugador. Pelé redefinió el fútbol, lo hizo popular en todo el mundo, él era el fútbol, por eso es uno de los mejores, nadie hizo lo que hizo. Y 3 títulos son solo la guinda del pastel. Maradona ganó la copa del mundo con una Argentina promedio que estaba en pésima forma, y pasó del gran Barcelona al pequeño Napoli, y ganó, probablemente, la liga más difícil en la historia del fútbol y esa es la Seria A. Kroff literalmente creó el fútbol moderno. Ronaldihno es, con mucho, el jugador de fútbol más talentoso de todos los tiempos, es el único jugador que vi que hacía que otros jugadores parecieran niños a su alrededor, tenga en cuenta que entrenaba muy poco y estaba de fiesta todo el tiempo, y nunca se tomó el fútbol en serio. Qué decir de Maldini o Bekenbauer, que crearon un tipo de jugador defensivo moderno y ganaron todo lo que hay que ganar en el fútbol. Messi y Ronaldo son los jugadores más eficientes y con carreras más largas de la historia, y así sucesivamente. Como puedes ver, todos estos jugadores hicieron algo que ningún otro jugador hizo. No se pueden comparar eras, antes, el lanzamiento era terrible, la pelota era más pesada, la defensa era más brutal. Era mucho más difícil jugar mucho tiempo en los años 70 y 80 que en la década de 2010, cuando los jugadores tenían toda la atención médica moderna y la protección de los árbitros y la tecnología VAR. Si Messi jugara en los años 70 y 80, alguien se rompería las piernas y ni siquiera recibiría una tarjeta por eso, si Pelé o Maradona jugaran en la era actual con todas las ventajas en tecnología, serían una bestia. Y dime, si antes era tan fácil marcar, ¿por qué Maradona o Pelé no marcaron 5-6 goles por partido? Antes era menos táctico y más duro, hoy es más táctico pero menos técnico. Antes teníamos mucho mejores ambientes, jugadores con carisma. Hoy tenemos mejores estadios, tecnología VAR pero ambientes horribles y jugadores robot estériles. Entonces, respeta toda la historia del fútbol, porque algún día algún niño romperá todos los récords de Messi y dirá que el fútbol de 2020 es viejo y aburrido, pero eso no hará que Messi sea menos grande.

more like sleep with him lol

I mean hes a Football God.. but it’s his humbleness which is so rewarding. One of a kind let’s all enjoy him.. I love it when he gets mad though which is rare…

[@amarlokman]

Respect rio for acknowledging greatness when he sees it, despite being mates and having played with ronaldo, who is not a bad player himself

[@zaclazari5490]

The amount of disrespect Messi has received by even comparing Ronaldo to him. Absolute nonsense.....Messi is in a world of his own. Ronaldo cant do anything better than Messi apart from head the ball

[@speedwagon8852]

Seriously the disrespect is insane. Messi shouldn't be compared to anyone but a lot of people try to box messi into just goals and use that alone and compare him to others.

[@tojusote4896]

Even when it comes to goals Messi outperforms ronaldo

When I think about Messi I see some of the unbelievable goals he’s scored (literally 20+ goals flash before my eyes), I see some of the goals he scored when it truly mattered (again 20+ goals flash before my eyes), and then I see the assists or moments that weren’t goals. He has done things that are inconceivable, there’s no way to describe it, calling him a magician falls short. Best ever or I will ever see

I didn't understand what Henry said exactly?

[@L3th4LQu4rK]

Rio must love Messi so much he’s always talking about him and trying to know stories about him

[@Sigurjon96]

He likes Ronaldo way more. Just putting on a deceptive face as if he's fond of Messi. Rio Ferdinand would never admit that Messi is better than Ronaldo. It takes one egoist to appreciate another which is why Ronaldo is always better in his mind. Berbatov should of played in the finals against Barcelona top leading goal scorer left out for chumps like Hernandez, Owen and Rooney. I'm sure Ferdinand convinced Ferguson to play with weird tactics and leave Berbatov out of the finals. Such a pitiful display of performance. We would have had a chance with Berbatov it could of been competitive. But no bully Ferdinand has to decide everything like he owns the world. Rooney was terrible on his own in the frontline.

[@Ar17778]

[@nuclearwinter6231]

Christiano was never in Leo’s shadow, they had one of the greatest rivalries in football history with each one trying to out preform the other and succeeding until the other comes back with something else. The saddest thing is messi evolved his game to be more of a provider and not caring too much if he scores while cr7 still trying to score goals at his age. He’s ruining his legacy.
