    Don't know where the love for that guy comes from. Seriously. Had about 5 very good seasons for United then * his career away.
    Must be an United/English thing. He's a couple of tiers at least down from Ronaldo and Pele. I would say Jinky was a better player as well.

    You mean if you ran on the pitch and had stewards after you and your favourite player stopped for a photo you wouldn't think that's cool as *?

    Messi finished this season with career total of 538 goals but Ronaldo with the CL final still to come is currently on 583 career goals.

    45 goal difference with Ronaldo being 2 years older, i reckon messi will more than do 25 a year in those extra 2 years.

    Strange that there is nobody in the 600 to 700 range obvious Ronaldo and I think messi will both get there but weird it's such a big jump

    One more goal from Ronaldo and he reaches the 600 mark.

    Since end of last season Ronaldo has extended his goal tally difference between him and Messi by 2 goals.
    Ronaldos 606 to Messi's 559.

    I mean fair play to Ron, but the fact that he's now equal with Messi in terms of Ballon Dors just doesn't sit right. The last 10 years they have 5 each, are you telling me that Ronaldo has been better than Messi for HALF of the last decade. I'm sorry I'm not buying it, Messi has been the undisputed best bar maybe a couple of years, 3 at best. Ronaldo's also been helped in the past two years that Real have been a far better all round team than Barca have. Not even sure I'd say that Ronaldo has been better than Messi this year, tho I can appreciate the CL final has swayed it.

    Though if we're talking about who's the better footballer then it's not even a serious question.

    I'm not a fan of individual awards like this, but it's ridiculous that Ronaldo has as many Ballon d'Ors as Messi.

    Messi has won it once since 2012. Crazy.

    I couldn’t give two * about the award.

    I only posted it to see how long it would take for the Messi fan club to come along
