"Supporting cast doesn't matter". Crashes out of UCL in a 4 nil defeat.

Emeka Osisi says:

Who is the GOAT?

Tigorah says:

Arturo Vidal has now won Serie A, Bundesliga & La Liga. By Ronaldo fans' logic he is now better than Messi, and the GOAT.

Hrsplit Hr says:

It sucks for Ronaldo to be playing in the messi era , he will never be seen as the best simply because Messi

Prudence Gowdie says:

Messi is just super, super. Now he has no comparison. Just great. Blessings everytime. Long live king Messi.

Ioan Bristow says:

It was all said in this video. He is the best ever! End of story

loukas papageorgiou says:

as a barca fan i say that liverpool will be very tough

YouTube HD says:

Same as how dependent Juve were on Ronaldo

Ahm S says:

Messi the top no.5 player better than no.1. Indeed football awards are a hypocritic joke nowadays. Shame on you football awardees.

BISWAJIT says:

Dembele is better! But he is being ignored by his own teammates.

Richard Dordoye says:

And this is the 5th best footballer in the world. If he trains a bit harder maybe one day he can become somebody.

kori Villa says:

La liga teams 7 champions league and 6 europa league in last years

Mensima Ampong says:

I just love him

Joseph Mohan says:

Ronaldo: Amazing
Messi: Magical

Ronaldo: Wow!
Messi: How?!

That's the difference.

isaac del valle says:

The stats and titles are not what makes Messi the GOAT. It's the fact that what he does with the ball, no other player has done or can do. That's what makes him the best ever.

Lanmbieng says:

I think FIFA should ban Messi , until the DNA test confirm He is a human being . He is not from this world
Thanks to GOAT

R S says:

Put some respect in Suarez. He does so much. Especially against the Madrid game where he carried the team.

Jeff Tavares says:

The quality of football that is in La Liga isnt at the same level that it is in England and Italy. On top of that Messi doesnt have Ronaldo to worry about anymore so its its a one horse race in la liga this season

saeed atenzi says:

Messi is my favorite player and I have no doubt he is the GOAT.
but Barca is with Messi and Messi is with Barca stop saying "barca is all Messi", we win as team even tho messi is a god role but can never count other members out.
Do NOT forget that "mes que un club" is our moto.
Força Barça

Mondli Firmino says:

Can't wait to see barca struggles to make top four after a messi retires

The Serving Ace says:

So long as lab techs at Barca have got his little sailors frozen, then the Catelonians will rule the roost of European football until the end of time

al hoceima brother says:

Messi best player ever…Maradona 2…Ronaldo de souza faria 3…ronaldinho 4…Johan Cruijff 5. Christiano Ronaldo 6. Del piero 7… van basten 8…ienesta 9…zavi 10.

Santi Suarez says:

Both CR7 and Messi are amazing, but I believe that Messi is more consistent than Ronaldo, and Ronaldo is better at making the difference in important matches.
That's the reason to why Barcelona have been almost undisputed in the league, and Real Madrid had better runs overall in the Champions League

Bandisa Masilela says:

"Cristiano Ronaldo is an incredible goal scorer "…….

That's why I love messi, he is not one sided, he does so much, and people still expect more.

Example is how people say he s bad with Argentina bluh bluh, just watch everymath closely, 2014 final for an example, almost all over the entire field doing this and that. But people clearly define a high performance in terms of goals only in soccer now n to me that's just shit….

Some of the best players dont even make it past the round of 16, but ai.

Paolo H says:

Messi says all the right things; Iniesta and Xavi were great players but good technical passers don't win you titles – Barca have always had these types of players…the difference is a man who scores an average of a goal every game plus many assists plus the forgotten aspect, the space created because other teams set up to stop him through fear often putting 2+ men on him…& he still scores & generally causes havoc!

Players like Messi & Ronaldo win you titles….end of! When teams have those games where they can't score ie Levantes game at the weekend…guess who pops up off the bench because those other useless twats (tongue in cheek ofc) can't hack it?

Vic Rattlehead says:

Messi himself has 10 league titles

Arjun Gurung says:

Wow barsa win. …

Arte Delint says:

Messi is God.
