Best player ever?

Rex

That Portuguezer walks all over both Messi and Ronaldo with his average of 1.68 goals per game.

Biggus

And what about Gerd Muller?
He played back in the day and in a league when tackling wasn't illegal and when what would be called grievous assault nowadays would be punished with a stern talking to.

too quick to be even fouled.

It's like he's in the matrix and everything is slowed down just for him.

Cheat mode.

Messi plays football.
Ronaldinho plays with the ball.

Rex

I am sure Ronaldinho plays with his balls, but there is no need to post stuff like that on the forum. Think of the children!

Ronaldinho was awesome to watch. The only way he can even be considered in this debate though is if mentality isn't a part of it, which I personally think would be ridiculous.

But that's exactly what it is. His brain is too fast and his feet can match his too fast brain.

Much prefer to watch messi than ronaldo or ronaldinho. It winds me up a bit when I see ronaldo standing still doing those ball rolls and waving a foot over the ball only to then play a short pass to the side. Also ronaldinho's no look pass annoyed me. Starting the passing motion then flicking your head to one side is wee wee

Biggus

You sound very annoyed at everything Dules, little one keeping you up?

banduan

Ronaldinho pisses me off too cause he pisstakes a little too far. But still an eminent source of fun footie.

Couldn't agree more on Ronaldo. He's such a stupid show pony half the time, rarely does anything special at all on the dribbling front. Messi beats people over and over and he does with such grace.

Too much. How? How does he do that?

Ray

Meh, that isn't even in his top 10 goals.

Mirth

Sums it up.

Rex

Can you imagine what it must have been like for opponents back then to play against this combination of skill. close control, pace and power? So far ahead of his peers is truly remarkable.

Bold Tone

Great find there, Rex.
To this day my dad says nobody will ever be as good as Pele was.
His point has always been how much better he was than his peers and you can't argue with that.
