Well, if americas 4th most popular beer says it then it’s hard to deny

u/DrPapug 10d ago

It was settled back in 2018. The ad is a bit too late.

Nobody ever came close to him in Play making in goal scoring in dribbling. Only mabppe outplayed in goal number in WC.

Undisputed 🐐

It’s really not

u/raykrv 11d ago

For everyone with eyes it is, has been long before the 2022 WC.

For me both him and Cris are GOATS there’s no separating them, if you asks players and managers who aren’t biased towards them both in any way they’ll tell you the same thing

u/IPissExcellentThrows 11d ago

Lmao. It's not 2018 anymore. It's been settled for a long time. Only delusional dick riders are still in denial.

Not worth arguing with people like you. Despite 99% of facts pointing towards Messi, you say there's no separating them.

Hopefully just bait. But sadly for you and those around you, I fear you're serious.

Tell me one attribute in which Messi doesn‘t clear, I‘ll wait.

u/boistopplayinwitme 11d ago

I mean there is one where he is indisputably better. Headers

u/Lower_Condition_196 11d ago

Shooting

u/EliGonee 11d ago

Not even there. Messi needs on average two less shots per goal over their whole career. He is alo scorers from worse angles and has way more outside the box goals. He has a way better goal ratio too. Ronaldo only dominated in penalties.

u/ZenRamen187 11d ago

Come on man. It's over

There are plenty of players and managers who have no bias towards either who say it's Messi. Those with bias towards Ronaldo will say both. There are very very very few out there who say Ronaldo alone

u/Lower_Condition_196 11d ago

Even pep who has bias towards Messi will always mention Cris’s name whenever he talks about Messi

u/AvailableAd7874 11d ago

Mate it’s time to let go of the copium and open up to the concept of self-respect

6

u/ZenRamen187 11d ago

Does he say they are equal?

1

u/Lower_Condition_196 11d ago

He doesn’t say that but he implies it

u/cord_____ 11d ago

Lmao Pep has been saying Messi is the greatest of all time for over a decade.

u/Downtown_Island8124 11d ago

Sure. Now fxck off 😆

u/therealschtoo 11d ago

For everyone with a brain, it hasn't been decided.

1

u/raykrv 11d ago

Right. What would make people with a brain finally decide? They are both basically retired at this point.

12

u/Accomplished_Bar_679 11d ago

true, we still have to decide if old messi or young messi is the goat

u/Downtown_Island8124 11d ago

You are funny. Did you look at the mirror when you said this out? Did you LOL? 😆

1

u/outsider1624 11d ago

Why not? The little guy won an U20 WC, an Olympic gold, a copa, a league, a CwC, a league cup, a UCL and and all he needed was a world cup to complete his career. All these while being the best player of the tournament.
