Some of the media are promoting the final like a boxing match head to head between the two of the best! That is so presumptuous as there are other great players in both teams,there is no doubt that the result could bestow on these two great players but it doesn't have to! I think Messi has more to prove than Ronaldo as Ronaldo has been it.... seen it...done it and won it,they have both won the champions league but whoever wins will likely be awarded the highest individual accolades....it's Messi's turn now.But Ronaldo will be hungry to win those accolades again.
Ronaldo receives ballon d'or ...only a few players will ever get one in their lifetime!
Pele gives Ronaldo the Fifa world player of the year award....the highest accolade which means a player is considered the best in the world.
Messi and Ronaldo....
I've already said that Messi thoroughly deserves the awards that Ronaldo achieved last season,however as the season comes to an end I think it's about even between these two fabulous players.Messi has scored more goals this season,but Ronaldo has scored the more spectacular goals.So it's quality for me over quantity.Ronaldo was out for the first two or so months due to injury and I think he scored more goals than Messi has this season-during last season's campaign.However,as I said Ronaldo has scored more spectacular goals in the champions league not least the winner against Porto it was almost forty yards out and it was an absolute masterpiece!
I don't think Messi is a better overall player than Ronaldo.And up to this point I have not been impressed with him against British opposition.That could all change who knows? But aside from that in my opinion Ronaldo is a more complete player than Messi.Certainly the best of the last fifteen years in the premier league and perhaps the best player that Manchester United has ever had.Pele is still the greatest of them all but,some of the things i've seen Ronaldo do on a football pitch are just out of this world,and I truly have not witnessed from any other player including Pele and Maradona.
Ronaldo is just special and unique that's what sets him apart,you can play him up front or as a winger,he's fast,he's good in the air,he can score from any distance and any part of his anatomy,he's good with both feet right and left,he's the best free kick taker ever,his fancy step overs and his passing of the ball...including the little back flick he does from time to time is just amazing.I don't listen to commentators and pundits as I said before,sometimes I agree with them and sometimes I don't.Whoever shines between Ronaldo and Messi will likely be hailed as the better out of the two,but that is just one game! My opinion is based on what i've seen over a whole season and their performances within a team and as well as individually.My opinion will not change regardless of the outcome of the final in Rome.The Premier league is the trophy I wanted anyway and that is what I got.But,of course I want Manchester United to win again.I think Barcelona are a fantastic team,and have on the whole,been the best team in Europe this year so I won't be devastated if they win as I like the team and the players.
Make no mistake about it though,Messi is a stunning player,a phenomenal talent and Man Utd will have to watch out for him,he's super quick and hard to catch,he's dangerous and that is why he is one of my favourite players in the world.I also think he has a better chance of winning the world cup as Argentinia have a better team than Portugal.
Ronaldo is better looking though...wink wink.I think men prefer Messi generally speaking because of that reason.Ronaldo is a pretty boy and well groomed,men hate that.Messi is just an ok looking guy who doesn't look fussed about his appearance.
It must be said,which is something I have acknowledged,and that is there are other players in both teams that are fantastic.It may not even come down to a battle between Messi or Ronaldo,we have Tevez,Park,Berbatov,Carrick and Oshea,somtimes the lesser players perform and do the job for a team.In Barcelona you have Iniesta,Henry,Eto and Xavi.They could play a big part in the outcome.Either teams can get lucky and slaughter the other,you never know,it may also be even,or it may come down to extra time.There are just so many possible outcomes,an important player from each team could get sent off...there could be so many twists and turns and then again there may not be.That's why these games are always so enticing.
Steven Gerrard does not even come close to being the best player in the world! How he won football writer's player of the year is beyond me.Anyway Ronaldo has already wiped the floor with that award winning it twice....Gerrard can't even hold a candle to Ronaldo or Messi,if Gerrard tried some of the things that Ronaldo does on a pitch he would break his back! Yes,he's a good player no doubt.He would not be the captain of a top 4 club if he wasn't,but the top players including Torres,Kaka and even Drogba are far better than Gerrard.Gerrard still has time however,and one day he may get into top gear but when it comes to the cream of the crop he is currently and, perhaps will always be be second best in my opinion,even if he wins the world cup.In my opinion the premier league is the best trophy to win out of them all,because there is no league like it in the world,and it's the hardest trophy to win.That is perhaps one thing I agree with regarding the football pundits...the premier league is the trophy to win.As for United we've already won practically everything going this year including the world cup club.....who knows what can happen next? Anything can happen that's why i'm not making any predictions.
