Luka Modric at 32yrs old took Croatia to a World Cup Final playing with Rebić on the wing and a backline of Versaljko, Lovren, Vida, & Strinić
Ronaldo apologists are the worst of this sport.
"It's cruel because the best two teams Cristiano has played with came at the start of his career and the end of his career" 🇵🇹

Neymar fans despise Messi. Ronaldo fans despise Messi.
Epl fans despise Messi. never see those fan bases arguing against eachother, why? They all know Messi is at the throne and they all want it.
Messi aging. Arthur Melo sold. Bartomeu destroyed the club. Losing the league to Madrid. Wasting messi’s final years.
De Jong injured. Bottling the CL. Rakitic & Suarez are starters. Average squad age is 74. La Masia rotting in the bench. Tiki taka dead.
Me currently 🔊:
Cristiano knows it‘s his last big international tournament, he misses a late penalty risking to leave the stage as the man who “got Portugal knocked out“, his mum in the stands crying. Which grown man wouldn‘t have shed a tear? It’s called emotions. You can roast him for his
I don’t think most people on here understand how insane it that he didn’t retire after sustaining not one but the two biggest injuries in football.
Regardless of how he plays when he comes back, his mentality has my respect
2009 Sextuplet:
- Messi scored game winner in the UCL Final
- Messi scored game winner in the CWC Final
- Messi scored in Spanish Super Cup Final
- Messi scored in Copa Del Rey Final
- Messi assisted the game winner in the UEFA SuperCup Final
Name me someone else who did this
can’t stress how much I LOVE THIS!
“Give me Ronaldo & 10 pieces of wood”
“Ronaldo doesn’t need a team”
“ Ronaldo isn’t a system player”
“Ronaldo doesn’t need Madrid”
“If Ronaldo had the service he had at Madrid he’s score more”
“Ronaldo needs a better coach”
Dani Carvajal said it best on Messi vs Ronaldo
“... theyre different. Messi is a player who generates more football, has better vision, passing, amazing close control, & finds the spaces while Ronaldo is one who looks to run inside the box, tries to find the spaces,& works hard”
Friendly reminder that Lionel Messi has never placed out of the top 5 in the Ballon D’or. He has always been considered part of the top 5 best in the world every year since 2007. A 13 year record.
After saving my money for a long time to come to Spain I can now say -I’ve seen the team of my life in person
- Messi in person, chanted his name, and even celebrated a Messi goal.
One of the best days of my life... Visca Barca everyone :)

Leo Messi has become literally the FIRST & ONLY not just footballer but athlete (from a team sport) in HISTORY to win the
@LaureusSport
World Sportsman of the Year &
@brfootball
could care less the whole day. Point is this account is under a PR but it’s not Messi’s.
Grateful Messi & Ronaldo played in the same era. I’ll never have to hear the Maradona v Pele excuses:
- “if he would’ve played in this era”
- “he didn’t play vs these players..”
They played vs eachother in a CL FINAL! CL SEMI! & the SAME LEAGUE for 9 YEARS!
..and HE always won
Madridistas: “we’re the only team to 3peat the Champions League “
Neutral: “Ajax & Bayern both 3peated right after the other in the 70’s”
Madridistas: “don’t count. champions league started 1993”
Neutral: “okay, so then you have 7 CL’s right?”
Madridistas: “ 🤡...no 13”
Messi’s 19/20 season is so average he’s playing as good as an in-prime 02/03 Theirry Henry (24g 20a)
Ronaldo’s 19/20 is so good he’s playing as good as an in-prime Ciro immobile
Just to make it clear:
- Do I want Xavi at Barca? YES
- Do I think Xavi is ready? NO
- would I prefer someone else before Xavi rn? YES
- Then why be happy about Xavi? Because ANYTHING is better than Valverde or koeman. Can’t get any worse than rock bottom.
The fact that Messi shouldn’t have 700 goals since he doesn’t have good heading ability isn’t talked about enough
players who exceed 500 goals have great heading ability. Messi’s scoring ability is limited but he is outscoring players who excel in everything.. with only one foot
DANI ALVES at 23 years old...
@DaniAlvesD2
what Genertaional Talent actually looks like (THREAD)
Dani Alves VS Real Madrid 2007
-defending R9 successfully, clean, multiple times
-decision making
-the pass at 0:40!!
-crossing/passing
-confidence to dribble forward
It’s been 3 years since De Ligt, De Jong, Van de Beek, & Hakim Ziyech from Ajax’s 18/19 golden generation left. None of them have lived up to their potentials or hype.
Sid seixeiro went from dragging Messi in 2016 to dragging Ronaldo in 2022. We won lmao.
“No Portuguese fan wants him back in the national team. He does not work on the field, he doesn’t make runs that matter, & he doesn’t play for he team. It’s all stats, stats, stats.
@brfootball
The fact that beating Messi is still being celebrated 8 months later instead of beating Tottenham in the CL final proves that Messi is currently bigger than the sport.
Messi is the reason why we’ve gotten humiliated in past two years
If not for him carrying the team we would’ve gotten kicked by Lyon, or Napoli, but because he carries this team so heavily, he puts us up against teams that brutally exposed how bad the rest of the team was
A 2 minute video comprised of only 9 clips. He even had to edit out Messi dribbling through the entire inter Milan team before the assist at the end. It’s so hard to make him look bad. once in a lifetime player.
Pele, apart from just naming the best also more importantly explained the difference between Messi and Ronaldo
CR is one of the best goalscorers Messi is the most complete player
Eden Hazard’s thoughts on Messi. Many thought this was fake; here’s the video:
“Nobody can be compared to Messi, it’s impossible! Its true that we have some similarities; we’re both small & fast.. but he scores in all the games, I don’t. I cant be compared with the incomparable”
Wow
@cr7raprhymes
for a Ronaldo fan page who apparently doesn’t care about the BallonD’or, your really hurt dude. You’ve posted about ronaldo exclusively just once in the past days. The textbook definition of rent free. Every post is about Messi LOL
July 2018,
@EduAguirre7
after Ronaldo’s hattrick vs Spain:
“Congrats Ronaldo, you just won your 6th Ballon D’or at 33 years of age! Messi only has five🤷🏻♂️. This makes you the best in history, end of discussion.”
...Here we are a year & a half later. Crazy how life work
The fact that Ronaldo’s usless goal vs Atlético Madrid in the UCL final after Bale and Sergio Ramos singlehandedly saved Madrid is counted is the sole reason why I don’t talk to people who talk stats. Eye test > stats
The greatest lie: “Cristiano Ronaldo is Barcelona’s Biggest Nightmare”
A thread Breaking down the deceiving stats
- For context Cristiano isnt a bad player or discrediting what he did, but simply proving that he was rarely a threat when facing Barca
(THREAD)
Did I say I didn’t like kpop!? Nah what I meant to say was I didn’t like that kpop’s intellect isn’t appreciated enough. I “Stan” a kpop singer who isn’t blinded by the marketing to know messi is best. ✌🏻
10 minutes & not a single clip or pass is replayed, & you could still make another 20 minute comp with completely new clips
Messi is the best & most complete footballer of all time
Damn you’d think Madrid fans would be mocking Barca rn but we’re so irrelevant to them now 😭😂 they’re throwing shots at Liverpool, Mbappe, ronaldo, & the premier league.
Messi won a Ballon D’or & league with a midfield of Rakitic, Vidal, the same Arthur Melo Ronaldo has, with Semedo & Langlet defending, Valverde as coach & Bartomeu burning the club
Ronaldo really has no excuses
The transfer isn’t confirmed, for sure, but what people don’t undertand is we don’t care lmao. We want Messi to leave the assertive way, the arrogant way, the superior way. fvck peace, we gon start a revolution regardless. End of the transfer saga, we talk again.
@VirgilvDijk
@AnfieldRd96
I agree with you but Sorry to tell you Virgil but your opinion even after facing both ronaldo and Messi is wrong because it doesn’t align with
@cristianocomps
ideas therefore in his eyes your clueless because having played ronaldo he should’ve been your toughest
Luis Enrique made people think that managing a super star attacking trio was so easy that all you had to do was sit back & watch them score. Put some respect on his name.
Barca fans a really going to praise Dembele as if he had a masterclass huh? Y’all dig at ronaldo fans for glorifying a goal after 90 minutes of mediocracy but are doing the exact same thing. Y’all give me headaches.
This scene says it all..
the fact that Ronaldo had a scene specifically showing Messi playing the WC Final & lifting the MVP trophie shows how much it hurt him
Acting confident & saying your the best for your fans when deep down you know the truth must take a toll on him...
38 year old, I repeat, 38 year old Ibrahimovic who came from the MLS out-preformed Cristiano Ronaldo... one plays in the best team in Italy the other in Milan.
Say what you want about Ronaldo but, I know for a fact that even if Ronaldo had a bad coach, bad teammates, or a corrupt board he would never allow his team to lose by 4-0 or 8-2 or 5-0 or 5-1.
@ESPNFC
It’s not their fault I get it, it’s the buisness. Nonetheless athletes in general don’t deserve this much money. From basketball to football. All the do is play.
RONALDO IS A GOALSCORER WHO NEEDS A SYSTEM AROUND HIM. MESSI IS THE SYSTEM. The standards between a goalscorer like CR & a complete player like Messi will never be the same. This is why ronaldo is protected like today and Messi is criticised vs Napoli having a half injured squad
Saw Ronaldo fans say Neymar is better than Lewandowski because he’s more effective and offers more than goals...
What’s next, are vegans going to praises meat for being a good source of protein?
@modric_fan
He’s going to be 40 being sold to a team in China and his fans will think the transfer was organised by UEFA to get him out of Europe on purpose for being too good.
Hey y’all so my friend (who is a black man) has a roommate who falsely accused him of sexual harassment because he touched her pans and called the police. Her name is Mila Jovanovic
First loss of thr season because of an Argentinian guy who parties for 20 days and a Brazilian who can't behave himself on the pitch and defenders who can't defend. End the season already
Messi vs France (WORLD CUP)
- 2 assists
- 3 key passes
- 1 big chance created
While being man-marked by prime Kante
Ronaldo vs France (Nations league)
- 0 goals
- 0 assists
- 1 big chance missed
- 1 key pass
- 0 succ. dribbles
Messi is useful even when he doesn’t score
Sergio Reguilon’s (Madrid player) reaction after pulling Dušan Tadić on Fifa20 😭😂
“this son of a b*tch... He knocked me out of the CL last season! You knocked me out you as*hole. I could sell you cause your worth money but out of pride I’m gonna discard you. Go f*ck yourself”
@_TrillScott
The guys that these girls are hoping see that tweet probably saw it and said “ahh that was probably for me lol which means I still got a hold of her, let me go say what I have to, hit it, and keep her on a string for later”.
Please don’t call your self a football fan or fan of sports for that matter if the first time you ever heard of the laureus award was when Messi won it. This is how uncultured some of these people are. Credibility out the window lmaoo how embarrassing
