I didn't take it like that. It was an uneducated dig and it made you look like an utter prick.

I agree but I also know it’s circunstancial Ronaldo just changed leagues countries teams new players new coach new system. But Messi has been phenomenal no shame in saying that.
Tbh they better not.
Please show evidence/proof of that. You literally said a few pages back that Cristiano has been better since 2014.
We don’t do alternative facts here.
Show me the proof of what you speak.
If you don’t know how to stay on a topic and resort to that type of statement it’s your problem not mine. Of course I wasn’t insulting you and your country ffs.
Like I said everyone is entitled to there opinion. I think Ronaldo and you think Messi and that’s FINE but the issue on why this thread sucks is because you see things like “so far ahead” “not even close “ and quite frankly those people are either blind or slow.
Football flat earthers.
He live on another planet compared to every player I saw in my lifetime with the exception of Brazilian Ronaldo.
On a side note, the poll on the top of the page is irritating. A moderator should remove it especially since it was fixed and doesn't represent the consensus on redcafe.

When did I say 2014. Find that post right now and tag me in it.
I said last few years. Quite frankly implying 2016,17,18.
I do think he was better 2014. Not 2015 though.
Read then respond.
Give it a rest, you are the one who decided to give it all 'billy big balls' and brought my country in it for me daring to suggest Messi is better than Ronaldo. Pathetic.
This and clearly not knowing feck all about my country and the players we had. you just assumed you could say shit like that because of pure arrogance
They put it there because there is a lot of bias on red caf leaning one way.
No circunstancial isn’t really, reality is he still can play at this level for more 2 or 3 years without problems. He is the most complete player. No problem with that.
You are correct.
Last time I will say something. It was only based on football nothing more than that. If you didn’t liked it no problem and sorry. But next time also think twice before replying with stupid language. And it ends here. Apologies to all Northern Ireland posters or Best fans. But for me Ronaldo is better.
Apology accepted.
Thanks. At least I said something right this time.
You’re welcome.
Best post ever
5th best player in the world making a big jump to win the Ballon D'Or for the first time ever.
Oh wait no it's his 6th. The fact he wasn't shortlisted last year was a disgrace.
Just give him the Ballon D'Or. No one has been near him this season/year.

It's the first time in a few years that Messi has stood up in the knockout rounds isn't it?
Ronaldo has dominated them the last few seasons.

Salty, very very salty.
It’s not just CL that matters. Just watch the games and admit it. You will enjoy the game even more after.
Why would I be?
Their are just factors that make it that Messi simply is not better though it’s very closer. His whole career has been in Barca for many years in the greatest team of all time (also due to him) we have never seen him tried and tested in other leagues and teams like Ronaldo. In Argentina we know how he is. I’m sorry but I just can’t see it. Ronaldo has more “credentials” to being the best.
Yeah agree, even the chance he set up at the very end for dembele had Ronaldo been in that position no way would he of passed.
If Messi plays well Barca invariably win the man is the ultimate team player and quite frankly we're honoured to be alive to watch Messi and Ronaldo in their prime.
To be fair, you lost your credibility when you said Cristiano was better in 2015. You haven’t recovered from that.
Find that post and tag me.
Ronado really did a lot in recent years to get himself around Messi's level again, so fair feck to him on that, it was really a great achievement, but it's Messi again who is in front by mile now.
What are part of Ronaldo's game that he is better than Messi these days? Apart from heading I can't see any. Messi is clearly better on free kicks than Ronaldo ever was, and weren't there some stats that showed that he is nothing worse with his weaker foot when it comes to scoring too?

Are you sure I am part of this discussion? I mean the most ridiculous thing I had the chance to read this week was some media trying to create the narrative this was a Van Dijk vs Messi and the winner would win the Ballon D’or.
They don’t live on the same planet, and the only one who tried to challenge this on the last decade never played on Liverpool.
Give me a break, I have to laugh at the innocent Rawk posts this week imagining a player like this fears their pace.
I was just jesting lads
sorry for being jokingly provocative 
Right now both have 600th club goals.
Pretty remarkable both in the same era.
I don’t blame you bro I get it. It’s what makes this thread stay aliveI was just jesting lads
I'm delighted that the Scousers look like finishing the season winning as much as United.Unbelievable. I wonder if @Cal? @SCP @SportingCP96 @FC Ronaldo @Peyroteo will show up after this?
Looks like they are arriving ^^^
The 2nd best player in the world occasionally showing his worth in the CL after 3 years of doing feck-all.
His movement is probably better(though Messi's always been more economical).
But yeah nothing else.
I don't see how anyone with a straight face can argue against Messi being the best this year. Ronaldo isn't even close to him. The gap has never been this big IMO.
I won’t single out a poster because he’s being bossed at the moment - but he is so salty it’s unbelievable
Everyone is entitled to an opinion. Period.
But feck me, I just can’t imagine being able to look at both players and not being able to realise who the GOAT is, let alone the better player of the two. For me, it’s painfully easy.

Yeah, I wanted to include it too, but then Messi scores more goals so I am not sure I can say even that is important when you look at it. Messi's movement is obviously better considering he is both creating and scoring more goals with his movement.
Don't know about how their stats compare in that season but in terms of their quality of their games, the gap was just as big as now in 2010-11 IMO. Both Messi & Barcelona were unbelievable that season and played Real off the park every time they played each other bar the Copa del Rey final in which Ronaldo scored the winner. 5-0 El Clasico, Messi making a fool of Real's defence in CL game at Bernabeu, them winning probably the easiest CL Final they had
IIRC, even Ronaldo had accepted at the end of that season that Messi is the best player in the world.They'll be fine. Barca is weirdly good at having the currently best player in the world in their squads. Before Messi, there was Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Laudrup, Romario, Maradona, Cruyff, ... It is incredible how many best of their generation level of players they had. Most top clubs have only one or two players of such quality through their entire history.
It really is quite cute how the CL is nothing more than a glorified cup competition which takes a lot of luck to win in the previous 3 seasons and has suddenly become the premier competition in the world once again.
