    Neymar Jr. - v5

    At this rate he'll be regretting burning bridges with the Barca board. He had a good thing at Barca thanks to Messi's selflessness and could have gone on to be a Barca great if he took the mantle from Messi. PSG won't be able to build the best team in Europe because all their money has gone on...

    Longevity aside Ronaldo isn't even the best Ronaldo, never mind a top 5 player of all time. The 2nd best player of his era, yes. Messi and Ronaldo aside it hasn't really been a golden era for great players though. I'd say the one year Ronaldo was the best player was 2008 and Messi has been the...

    Cr150

    He misses a lot of sitters. I remember a portugal game in the Euros (supposedly his finest hour) and he had a total nightmare missing chance after chance that was created for him. Any other year it would have knocked them out but the changes meant 3rd place went through even without them winning...

    Cr150

    Yes, I think Messi is a much better finisher (with his feet/main foot) but lacks Ronaldo's appetite for goals. Messi has passed up loads of penalties for Suarez or Neymar for example and free kicks. He passes a lot when he could shoot. He eases off when the game is won. Ronaldo would never do...

    That's where the Andy Cole comparison comes in. Cole's movement in the box was brilliant.

    Cr150

    I didn't say he was a better player, Ronaldo has been a better player. I said Muller is a better natural goalscorer and finisher than Ronaldo. There's a myth around Ronaldo that he's the best ever goalscorer. Players like Muller, Puskas, Ian Rush, Jimmy Greaves were unbelievable natural...

    He's more Andy Cole than Gerd Muller. Muller didn't miss stacks of good chances a game. Cole and Ronaldo are both forwards with great movement who played in very attacking and quality sides who created shitloads for them. 15 Penaldos every season helps too.

    Cr150

    He's not that great a natural goalscorer (compared to the best like Muller or Puskas). He's got a team full of world class players putting them on a plate for him every game while the standard of defending has got worse and he gets nothing like the level of attention off defenders Messi gets. He...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v5

    The whole team expends far too much energy on the Copa in Jan/Feb. Real have got knocked out early last two seasons and been fresher for the CL.

    Kevin De Bruyne

    Imagine it, a creative midfielder.

    Luis Suárez

    He was shit last season too. Carried by messi. It was also easier for him as the defenders were occupied by Messi and Neymar who also created a lot of good chances for him.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v5

    He's had to put up with a shit midfield for years now and now Suarez is playing like an amateur and Neymar has gone. He's let down by the shite around him.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v5

    Seemed frustrated with those around him today like Raki and Suarez fucking every pass up. Coupled with being double marked all game long and hacked down several times till his marker was booked. Nobody marks Penaldo though, he gets all the space in the world.

    Luis Suárez

    He is shit.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v5

    Suarez does him no favours at all.

    Luis Suárez

    Embarrassing for a lot of the game but at least starting to resemble a footballer in the second half. I don't get how he struggles so much with the basics. Needs to kick on because we can't carry him playing shit all the time.

    Luis Suárez

    Would rather have Peter Crouch up front. It's like watching Rooney these days.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v5

    He knows it's all about CL for the Ballon D'or or World Cup in World Cup year.

    Neymar Jr. - v5

    PSG need money after Neymar and Mbappe so Cavani could leave now.

    11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

    It was 3-4 months originally anyway, so 3 and a half about right. The worry is when you get players who become prone to these muscle injuries. Look at someone like Di Maria. Dembele's a player who relies on his pace, so if his hamstrings aren't right then it's a worry. Michael owen was never...
