Dismantling their arguments is so easy. Case in point.
Cristiano fans: Cristiano is better because he has has won more (debatable but lets go with it).
Messi fans: but that argument is not definitive, otherwise didnt Muller win more than Diego? Was Muller therefore better? Sergio Ramos has won more than Baresi. Who is greater?
Cristiano fans: no answer. But hold on, he's better because he scores better, esp in the CL.
Messi fans: Again, scoring more doesnt make one better, or are you now saying that Lampard was better than Zidane AND Iniesta because he scored more?
Cristiano fans: silence again. But Cristiano is better because he has more Balon Dor votes. Messi fans: again, cant always go by that, otherwise are you saying that Lampard AND Gerrard were MUCH better than Scholes because they destroyed him in Balon Dor voting (in fact, he never got a single vote in his career).
Cristiano fans finally respond: Well sometimes Balon Dor is wrong, look how Sneider got cheated by Messi in 2010. Messi should have 4.
Messi fans: but hold up. One minute you are swearing by The Balon Dor and using it to big up Cristiano, then the next, youre doubting its accuracy. Which is it?
Cristiano fans: Again, no response.
Messi fans: what quality as a footballer makes Cristiano better?
Cristiano fans: Well, how about heading and off the ball movement.
Messi fans: Muller had better heading and off the ball movement than Diego, did that make him better?
Cristiano fans: again silence. Hes another one, Cristiano is more clutch.
Messi fans: Muller was more clutch than Diego. Was he better?
Cristiano fans: silence. But Cristiano has proved it in different leagues, so hes better.
Messi fans: again not definitive. Or are you now saying that Marcel Desailly is greater than Beckenbauer, Moore, Maldini AND Baresi because he proved it in different leagues? Zola better than Roberto Baggio? Evra better than Maldini?
Cristiano fans: silence again.
Breaking down their arguments is like childsplay.
