      It's funny though.

      It's not easy to come up with all 10. I mean, Messi definitely gets 1st for me then I'd have problems figuring out the other 9 because they have a potential to be different if I decide to come up with 9 every hour.

      For me Iniesta and Xavi offer more, look how Messi plays for Argentina. A big reason for his incredible Barca form is because of those two.

      If you start a topic, don't come back in and criticize others if they have a difference of opinion!

      I haven't done it yet, but Ronaldo probably wouldn't be my number 2. Goes missing in big matches too often, at least when he was a manc, probably number 3 for me. Number 2 would be Lucas ;)

      Definitely.  I never once saw him have a good game, I watched Utd v. the big teams and he never turned up.  He was a demon against the newly promoted sides though.  Still, you can't argue with his goal return at Real, even if it is La Liga, 69 goals in 64 games...

      9. Dani Alves
      10. Sergio Ramos

      Can't argue with that at all, he is a great player. But still nowhere near Messi in my mind. Ronaldo looked average in the CL finals, whereas Messi is almost always right in the thick of it in the big ones. Ronaldo was so average in my eyes i actually didn't care if he was in or out of a game against us when at the mancs, he never made that much of a difference for me.

      Suarez               Ronaldo

        Messi

      Not a hope.

      Its not even questionable. He scored 53 goals last season!!

      Only Messi can say hes better. Xavi or Iniesta do not provide as much for their team as Ronaldo does to his!

      Surprised at the number of people with Rooney in their list.  Not because he is a manc, just because he blows hot and cold.

      To be fair i have put arguably 5 strikers ahead of him, and to be fair he is definitely one of the top 10 strikers in the world.

      Don't think Ronaldo actually deserves to be number 2. He rarely turns up for the big games but yet manages to get on the scoresheet.

      You always see the build up to el classicos about it Messi vs Ronaldo and it's usually Messi who steals the show. That, is a world class player.

      I know he scored 53 goals last season but he's scored plenty of tap ins and penalties. Tap ins considered being the player that just sticks his leg out to put the ball into the net. Whilst Messi has scored goals from a yard or two form the line, it's usually after he's ran with the ball.

      Then why the f**k start a topic asking if you're just gonna come in a dictate it then.

      I see the point, but at the same time he aint perfect. He scores goals and is damn good, but his fault is going missing when his team needs him most at times. That is an important factor in deciding these kinda things.

      I'd be damn close to putting him at number 2, maybe. But he is far from perfect in my eyes, considering he has a few years on Messi.
