    Honestly it’s crazy how Ronaldo is still this good at 38, he found joy again after that toxic united spell and now united fans realize he wasn’t the problem but the guy was really going through it all the way until the end of the World Cup and the entire world turned on him. Then Messi won the World Cup after Argentina were gifted unlimited penalty kicks and then this subreddit just went bat shit insane acting as if Ronaldo was always shit. Then anytime Messi flicks a ball this subreddit loses its mind and says “it was never in contention Messi the goat!” The bias here is so insane

      Don’t you think the bias is because Messi is better? And also France won the World Cup with four penalties same as Argentina and I have never heard you guys botching about it.

        your first question, no and your 2nd question i dont see people on here claiming Mbappe is the best player in the world of all time and Ronaldo was always shit so thats probably why people aren’t complaining about it.

      He was always elite. His absurd wage demands were bad and he didn’t deserve that much. Although that doesn’t change the fact he could still play for an elite team, albeit with a lesser role

      Just don’t go to r/football , Messi fanboys will automatically downvote anyone that says Cristiano is a good player (don’t even need to say he is the goat) and whenever someone asks for names of players that are bad, they constantly say Cristiano Ronaldo. The bias is really insane.

      Did you even see his dribble vs Peru and Australia ? the pass vs Netherlands ? The assist vs Croatia ? The goal vs Australia ? The goal vs Mexico ? These are all in just last 10 months. Do you really think Cristiano was a good player in the world cup ? When was the last time Cristiano did something and you thought "well only he can do something like this "

      This means he IS not that good of a player he ever WAS. He was. Age happens. It will happen to Messi too. The bias is there because majority of people prefer Messi over Cristiano. There can be tons of reasons to that but that’s a fact.

      Last 6 matches of messi were against opponents ranked 22,38,27,38,45,90.

      Cristiano last 7 matches are against - 2 against (199) ranked, 2 against (85) ranked, and 48,63,67.

      This is all from last 10 months. Seeing this can you really infer he is the best player right now ? He hasn’t scored against a team ranked <48 in these 10 months.

      This is an Instagram reel comment lol. I swear, it’s always a victim complex with y’all. Oh no, the upvote ratio! Who the fuck cares? Why the fuck do you care?

      Also, is it that hard for you to accept that Messi has a very genuine case for being the greatest player of all time? Like, I would love to hear your case for why that’s an incorrect take.

      The victims complex is genuinely insane. Also, United went on their best run of form for ages instantly after Ronaldo left and won a trophy.
