Barcelona

been watching them on telly a few times this season and feck me...they are brilliant...and that messi fella is supreme

I've put a tenner on Guardiola replacing Ferguson at United.

Messi is by far a better player than Ronaldo, but unfortunatly I can't see him in the Premiership any time soon.

I actually think Barca have laboured the last few games, but are still winning at a stroll. Messi is just ridiculous though. And Xavi, Iniesta, Eto'o and henry aren't too shabby either. Puyol at the back holds it all together and I can't believe United let Pique go. They are a joy to watch and would recommend anycody to go there for the weekend and watch them.

Don't know if they would beat United, but I hope it is the final.

I concur with that on the majority. I only thing I would say is that Ronaldo probably has a better shot on him than Messi.

Because of the weaker defences in La Liga, Messi would have to come to the Premiership to be definatively better then Ronaldo IMO.

They've scored 100 goals already this season.

When Messi has a world cup winners medal round his neck no one will be talking about Ronaldo imo.

Will the same apply for Ronaldo if he wins one before Messi? In my opinion Portugal are probably a better side than Argentina.

Ronaldo and Messi are both amazing players but have slightly different purposes. Messi is an absolute magician who brings others into the play. He is also capable of skinning a skeleton given the space. I think Ronaldo has more of an end product and will always score more goals than Messi but a side with Messi in will probably score more goals than a team with Ronaldo. Ronaldo is far superior in the air and is arguably more of a team player as he will run more than Messi in 90 minutes.

Not really worth comparing. They are both amazing players that have slightly different purposes in their respective teams.

I think Man City will try for Messi in the summer at a bigger fee than Kaka

Nonsense. Clearly Ronaldo is very good. But he's just a quick Beckham with a couple of (the same old) tricks.

Messi, on the other hand, is a once in a generation type of player. Quick thinking, instinctive and with the ability to back that instinctiveness up. He is insanely good.

Ronaldo is very overrated.

I agree. I have never watched Ronaldo and thought wow.

Ronaldo is very overrated.

I pretty much agree, fair enough he was incredible last season but he's been nothing like that this season.

Some brilliant finishes in that video.

Ronaldo is very overrated.

I'm sorry but when you score over 40 goals from midfield in one season playing against the calbire of opponents he was, you have every right to be rated.

My arse was he playing in midlfield.

He is not the best player in the world. Do you fancy him?

If either of them win the world cup for their country then yeah, it won't happen though Argentina are much better than Portugal.

He's scored something like 20 goals in 23 games this season, he's been brilliant. I just hope United get Barca in the Champions League final, would be quite some final.

agree

last season, ronaldo scored 40+ goals or something..some penalties and quality free kicks...to score that amount in the prem regardless of who you play for is simply world class...last season (IMO) he deserved the world player of the year etc...

but I think Messi (after watching recent barca games) will go on to be (and probably alreay is) better...

Man U and Barcelona are probably to the two best teams on the planet..it is there for all to see...and both play football the right way...

would be "the final" the sponsors will dreaming of for the CL imo

I didnt say Ronaldo was the best player in the world. I also didnt say he was better than Messi. I said both were awesome players but I dont understand how someone can be over-rated when they score over 40 goals playing against some of the best and toughest defences in Europe. As for him not being a midfielder, he doesnt occupy a central role and isnt a striker. At best he's an advanced winger/attacker. Even still, I dont know many out and out forwards banging in 40 goals a season anyway.

I didnt even say Messi hasnt been brilliant. Quite the opposite.

As for me "fancying" him, of course I dont. I just think its quite funny people saying he's "over-rated" on the basis of his form in the past couple of seasons, he's anything but. As is Messi.

Ronaldo is extremely good.

Messi is better. Messi doesn't roll around like a girl either.

I agree ronaldo is not over rated and is on merit one of the best 3-5 players in the world and last season deserved his acclaim...I have no doubt what so ever, messi will hold that honour very soon..he is too good not to..

two supreme players IMO....and glad we have one at least in the premier league..

They could both learn a thing or two from McGoldrick

He might not do that, but he does do this; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jF60oBBL4l0

Wonder where he learnt that from?!?!

Yes you do.

Yes you do.

Fraid not, he's too pretty for me. I prefer my men a bit more rugged. Roy Keane with his big grey beard does the trick for me.

Yep Barca are awesome.Don't forget Danny Alves, the best attacking right back in the world.

And Ronaldo is a c u n t !
