I hope the next golden ball for CR7, he is simply the best and this year no one can compare in any way. Also, because FIFA is a mafia and they already have their another favourite teams/players, being absolutely unfair. 14/11/2013 18:31

Spanish press : " FIFA despises CR7 in favor of Messi in their profiles of candidates for the golden ball. In the text accompanying the Portuguese player is compared in goals with Messi citing those achieved in 2012, which are not valid for the conquest of the trophy."
So FIFA is absolutely corrupted and a disgrace for football.

There are several difference between Messi and Ronaldo. First, Messi was recruited to Barca as a child and has played with them his entire career. Ronaldo was brought to Real Madrid for money - specifically what they thought they could and did make of off his name, hence CR7, the same as they did with Beckham (N.B. Madrid will lose money on Bale).

But Ronaldo has never had the mental game that Messi has. You often see him in a depressed mood, similar to Landon Donovan. Contrast that with Messi who is always smiling, even when he errs. This quote about the Champions league quarter finals from last year says it all:

'LONDON - One man never made a team, but there have been a handful in the history of the game who made all the difference.
Think Alfredo Di Stéfano and Real Madrid. Think Ferenc Puskas and Hungary. Think Pelé and Brazil. Think Diego Maradona and any of the teams he represented.
And now, indubitably, add Lionel Messi to that list.
His presence was never better felt than at the Camp Nou on Wednesday night. While Messi sat, hamstrung, on the bench, his Barcelona squad was second-best to Paris Saint-Germain.
When he came in after 62 minutes, Barça was a goal down and facing elimination from the Champions League. Within seconds, the whole game changed. Simply by taking the field, Messi had a psychological effect on Barcelona, on P.S.G. and on the 96,000 spectators.'

I watched that game and that quote is accurate. I don't see the same with Ronaldo.

All opinions should be considered. But what we should not allow is FIFA manipulating information to favour their favourite teams/players (Remember Champions League Chelsea-Barcelona, 4 penalties) If they show that attitude in public, what they do not do in private? No other player in the world in 2013 can be compared with CR7, however FIFA is damaging as long as they can. It not makes too much sense a player like CR7 with just 1 golden ball. 14/11/2013 22:03

I'm certainly not going to defend FIFA, however, Ronaldo not having more ballon d'or's doesn't mean that there is a FIFA conspiracy against him.

Perhaps Messi was just the better player those years. I cannot see how anyone can argue that he was not worthy of the ballon the year he broke the record of most goals scored in a season.

It is all about opinions, I deeply respect 100% people who think Messi worth those 4 golden ball and CR7 just one, so I do not discuss this point, from my point of view Messi is simply fantastic. It is all about Fifa and the unfair treatment and manipulation of data, media, referees, polls, etc to favour selected players, teams and private businesses in a careless corruption way. At the end, between Platini , Blatter and several other sharks executives of Barcelona into the corporations who control the football all over the world is lacking of the necessary credibility. I would like CR7 and Real Madrid no attending anymore FIFA and UEFA ceremonies after all. 15/11/2013 03:15

I find the Barecelona reference a bit odd considering Real Madrid is the truest form of corporate football. They are the richest team in the world, they bought both Beckham and Ronaldo for their ability to sell merchandise, and require their players to give as much as 40% of their endorsement/royalty earnings to the team. I have been told that Barca is considered the working man's team and Real Madrid the rich man's team. Love Real as much as you want, hate Barca as much as you want, but please don't think Real Madrid are some saintlike football martyrs.

Considering Barcelona a poor club is an absolute mistake. They are a lot more powerful than Real Madrid by far, maybe there is some information you need to know, per example the UEFA is integrated by 2 ex-Presidents of Barcelona and Villar, the President of the Spanish Federation who is a fanatic of Barcelona. Another example is Senes Erzik, Unicef Projects Boss, we all remember Unicef as sponsor of Barcelona. Ask yourself why the favourite Club for FIFA and UEFA is Barcelona and the World Cup is for Qatar. A World Cup in Qatar in winter? Fantastic Real Madrid can be despised because is the richest team in the world? Then we need new rules in football. CR7 and Real Madrid being despised is not opinion, but facts. Everybody can see the news and the videos. If you agree the way of discrimination then we can not go through further points and this behavior favors the existence of corrupt organizations. No one is surprised by the absence of resignations for unacceptable corruption, the scam of the votes, the Qatar World Cup, the sold referees at the World Cup's...This is the Fair Play and the football we all want for the future? 15/11/2013 05:55

MVP of the game
World greatest footballers on 21st century and
maybe the two best players ever but certainly
the best rivalry in sport of football. Messi who
win the FIFA Ballor O dor award couple of
months ago had the record breaking calendar
year 2012. he broke all kinds of records in
process of scoring more goals in 1 year than
another player in the history, he beat the
record set by German player Gerrd Mullur who
scored 86 goals in one year but Messi went on
to score 91 and its hard to think anybody apart
from himself or Ronaldo to break this record
anytime soon.
Ronaldo vs Messi in 2013-
2014 Statistics
Now we have a break in club football for
fortnight as players head for the national duties
and we took the opportunity to analyse the
records of Messi and Ronaldo. There are so
many website have done the same in last few
years of comparing Ronaldo vs Messi agenda,
why they do it ? well because people would
like to know who is better ? have we decided
who is better ? answer is NO. We will have to
wait until both players hang up their boots and
than we can look back and see who was the
better player. here are the 2012-2013

Who is more influential for
the Team
Both the players are carrying their respective
teams to glory in all formats. Barcelona are run
away leaders in La liga with 15 points difference
and we can safely assume that La Liga title is
theirs. While Messi scored 2 goals to help them
get into the Quarterfinals of the Champions
league when he outclassed AC Milan at Nou
Camp while Ronaldo scored in both legs
against Manchester United to get a ticket to
Quarterfinals for his team. and Ronaldo also
helped beat barcelona in the Copa Del Rey
semifinal when he scored in his 7 consecutive
El Classico. So we can say that both players are
equally influential for their teams.
Messi vs Ronaldo Who is a
better Team Player
LIONEL MESSI: Well Messi gel in perfectly well
with Barcelona team when they are playing
with Xavi Hernandez and Andreas Aniesta and
he not only score goals but his number of
assists are great aswell. When he puts on a
Argentina shirt he can not perform they way
he does at Barcelona. So we have to say that
Messi is a better team players than Ronaldo.
Who is a better player ?
Lionel Messi
Cristiano Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo: Ronaldo since his
Manchester United days has been labeled as a
bit selfish player, some expert would say well
thats they way he plays but he often get into
confrontations with team mates as it has
happened in the past. With Ruud Van
Nistelrooy in Manchester United and as the
reports suggest in Spain that he dont get along
very well with his spanish team mates in Real
Madrid. He often shoot from insane angles
sometimes it goes in but often he will leave his
unmarked team mate in better position left
unhappy. having said that thats the way he
plays and if being selfish will get any manager
half the goals he scores in a season they would
love to have a player like Ronaldo.
Good thing is Ronaldo and Messi are playing in
the same era, for two of the biggest rivals in
football Real Madrid and Barcelona and we see
go head to head 3-4 times in a season. last
year Ronaldo helped his team to win the La liga
title while Barcelona could only win Copa Del
rey. Messi have won 4 back to back FIFA
Ballon O Dor awards but that does not mean
he is head and shoulders ahead of Ronaldo.
Conclusion: Who is better ?
Ronaldo or Messi ?
Well thats the question on everybodys lips in
last few seasons, from experts on TV, in
football news and kids playing in play ground.
But its hard to tell before their career finishes.
But we would leave you with this voting poll
and this amazing video of two of the best
players who ever graced this beautiful game.
