nothing between them in terms of goals, only 8 goals.
 
I've always said if I had to take one player into a poor Newcastle team to positively influence our team it would be Ronaldo. Pace, power and premiership proven
 
Both footballers, both athlete's, only one of them was on growth hormone as a kid to be stronger and faster than anyone else his size(and most people much bigger than him) :p

Seriously though, both excellent players, Ronaldo tips it for me as he's faster and stronger than Messi. They are generally impossible to directly compare as they play in different teams, for all the crooning over Real's "best squad" rubbish, a lot of that team is poor, defensively there isn't a truly great defender amongst them(Varane really looks something special though, but has barely played as of yet), Ozil, Di Maria, Kaka, Modric, Khedira, Benzema, Higuain, to call them anything other than massively inconsistent is to simply be lying. All can have great games, none of them have great games very often, even when they are good they aren't really close to Fabregas, Xavi, Iniesta, Villa, Messi or Ronaldo(the last two are ahead of the other lot but they are all miles ahead of the Real Madrid lot).

Ultimately Barca would be good if Messi was injured, Real would struggle very very badly, with different quality players around you, with a different manager, and with different length of time with said players, comparing who is better is not possible. Messi has played with Fabregas, Iniesta, Xavi, for over a decade now, Ronaldo has been at Real for 3-4 years, and the team hasn't been mostly the same in that time either.
 
I would take Ronaldo every time. He just has more dimensions to his game. Messi, whilst brilliant, is more reliant on his team to elevate him. Ronaldo has the capability to do it all by himself.
 
I'd pick Messi rather than Ronaldo and for the same reasons why I'd pick Roger Federer over Novak Djokovic - the former in each comparison makes the game look beautiful, the latter makes it efficient.

Now that's a gross oversimplification because the level of talent means that they all demonstrate huge skill but if it's about who/what I get more enjoyment from watching then there is no contest. All have a place in their respective games and are doubtless hugely impressive to watch but the way they go about the task is different.
 
Ronaldo is not a team player the guy has a terrible attitude towards his team, if he was more of a team player i would appreciate his talent but i really hate the guy so much.

Messi for me is the perfect player always plays for his team mates great to watch always looking to bring his team mates into play.
 
You say there's not much in it but in those stats alone Messi has 21 more assists than Ronaldo and still has more goals. To me, that's a big difference. Also, I read a column in one of the newspapers comparing the two recently and Messi's stats are better in every single aspect apart from headed goals. Literally every stat favoured Messi, short passing and long passing completion percentages, chance convertion ratios, amount of shots taken, amount of passes attempted and completed, etc etc. He's definitely the more complete footballer.
