I doubt that'll sway the voters. You either prefer Ronaldo's achievements or Messi's, I can't see anybody being torn between the two and opting for Messi based on his sportsmanship.

In a private conversation with a top Premier League manager, he came up with the definitive line on who is better -or so I feel. He thinks Messi is pure talent, and he is playing the same way he did as a kid (with some adjustments of course). But he feels that in 20 years we will see more Ronaldos, with bodies build up to be fast, strong, big and elastic at the same time, able to strike the ball powerfully. Cristiano, he feels, can be built. A Messi appears once in a lifetime. I agree.

Agree 100% with that.

Wenger has stated that Messi is the best player of all time.

If Ronaldo gets 80 goals this season and Messi gets 30, should Messi win the award just because he's "once in a lifetime"? Useless comment in a Ballon d'Or topic.

Was having a discussion with my house mate about the Ballon D'or today whilst we were watching the game. Unusually i ended up sticking up for Messi, when he claimed that Messi is the most overrated footballer of all time and that if he was playing in the Premiership he would only be a half decent player. He then went on to say that his top 2 players in the world were Ronaldo and Gareth Bale :laughcry:

Dag's probably basing this entirely on Ronaldo's reputation for going down easily while Messi tries to stay on his feet. That has to be the only thing going on in his head.
This is precisely it, and it will be what the voters think as well. Perception is reality.
:laughcry: How has he got away with this comment for more than 24 hours?!?!?!

Lol, best player in the world is Messi mate. Bale is massively overrated by some but has the potential to be a very good player.

Rachel off Countdown.

Seriously, Frank Lampard is an absolute legend of the game. He needs to be recognised in some way eg. Frank Lampard OBE, Sir Frank Lampard or some kind of lifetime achievement award.

Thought so, she's so great. Always in a sleek dress every weekday afternoon. She's sitting down there, was she on a panel show, and if so how did she come across?

She was really shy at first on Countdown, but she's a nice girl, good at maths and very fit.

Cracking looking bird I think. I thought she looked a bit like Louise Redknapp but too young to be her.
