Last twenty years.

Ronaldo>Zidane>Ronaldinho>Rivaldo>Messi

[Eskay Jones]

dont think messi can enter any lists unless he wins the world cup

[MEIRELES.]

Lens I am banning you from this room and removing you from my XBL friend list.

[Guest Yilmaz]

Ronaldo is the best footballer I have ever seen, and that includes Maradona, Pele and the like.

[Guest Yilmaz]

dont think messi can enter any lists unless he SINGLEHANDEDLY wins the world cup by scoring 15 goals in one f*ck*ng tournament

[Eskay Jones]

who negged me? man up. do I not speak the truth?

Ronaldo, Zidane, Rivaldo all won the world cup.

[Michel Kane]

The criteria to be considered the 'best player of all-time' is too subjective & you can use a number of reasons why a player is or isn't the GOAT. You have to be ignorant to OUTRIGHT say 'legendary player A' >>> 'legendary player B'...

Has Rivaldo ever won the Champions League?

Has Cruyff ever won an international trophy?

See where I'm going with this...

[Guest Portuguese]

If you want to go beyond last twenty years I don't think anyone will include Messi in this debate.

See the four I mentioned done it in Club/International level something Messi hasn't managed to do so far.

[Lieutenant]

You man know Lens was joking init

Bar Ronaldo, no-one did all that at 23/24, so yeah, let's chill with all the comparisons.

The reason why people bang on about Messi is because he's CAPABLE of emulating those legends, not because he has.

That's a fair point.

For me Ronaldo will always be the best(how can someone so young be unplayable and furthermore in Serie A)

Two career ending injuries in his 20's.

I am not going to say anymore the guy is a one off only Maradona was unplayable.

[Michel Kane]

Safe for pointing that out, yeah, I meant Ronaldo...

/

TBH, if Rivaldo 'won' the CL, so did Hleb with Barcelona.

[anelka]

lol @ Vieri being better than R9, he wernt even better than Batigol

I doubt Vieri would even make the top 10 Serie A strikers in the 90's or early 00's and i ws a big fan of Vieri

These kinda statements are a myth. Maradona has been marked out of games. Ronaldo has been marked out of games. Every great player has. Stop with that bullshit.
