I’ll always debate Messi has been surrounded by more world class players than Ronaldo so can see why the debate will go on forever who was/is best. In fact, look at the players around Messi compared to the United squad yet Ronaldo still continues to defy logic.
I give Ronaldo the edge for that reason but we’ve all been blessed over the last 15 years watching two of the greatest players of all time.
Ronaldo: 812 goals and 230 assists in 1,117 appearances · Messi: 762 goals and 328 assists in 968 appearances
Messi scores 72 goals in a season once. Ronaldos best season was a pathetic 61 goals.
But you’re right. Two legends playing at the same time.
