🚨New: Sir Alex Ferguson on the Messi, Pele, Maradona and Ronaldo GOAT debate: • Interviewer: Sir Alex, the debate never ends — Messi, Pelé, Maradona, Ronaldo. Who is the greatest of all time for you? 🗣️Ferguson: “I’ve been asked this question more times than I can count over the years, and for a long time I refused to give a straight answer because the debate was still open. It isn’t open anymore. Messi’s World Cup in 2022 was the final piece. Before that tournament he already had everything else, the Champions Leagues, the league titles in different countries, the Ballons d’Or, the individual brilliance that no one could match. The only thing missing was the World Cup. He went and got it. When a player completes the full set like that, the conversation changes. He has now completed football. Every major trophy, every individual award, every level of the game. That closes the debate for me. Because of that completion, Messi sits clearly above Pele, Maradona and Ronaldo. I’m not saying the other three weren’t great. Of course they were. But the ledger is now complete for Messi in a way it never was for the others, and that has to count. Now, people will jump on the fact that Cristiano was my player. He was. He is still my boy in many ways. I have huge affection and respect for him, the hunger, the work rate, the way he rebuilt himself season after season. That part is emotional for me. But the ranking itself is no longer emotional. It’s factual. You separate the personal from the professional when the evidence is this clear. Let’s be honest about what Cristiano is. He is the more adaptable, all-round player. Different leagues, different systems, different styles of play. He could score with either foot, with his head, from distance, from six yards. He could lead a dressing room, he could carry a team on pure willpower, and he stayed at the highest level for an absurd length of time. No serious person denies any of that. Physical dominance, leadership, versatility — he has those qualities in abundance. But adaptable is not the same as greatest. In pure footballing terms — the genius of the first touch, the vision, the consistency at the absolute peak for over a decade, and now the complete trophy case — Messi is on another level. Ronaldo is not close in that specific sense. One is an extraordinary athlete and competitor who maximised every ounce of his talent. The other is simply a better footballer. That’s the distinction. Pele and Maradona were gods of their eras, no question. But the modern game is harder, deeper, and more athletic. The athletic demands, the tactical organisation, the quality of opposition week after week, it’s a different beast. Messi dominated a far stronger era for longer than either of them managed. That has to be recognised. I’m not sentimental about this. Sentiment is for fans and for the media. When you strip it back to what actually happened on the pitch and in the trophy cabinet, the answer is clear. Cristiano is an extraordinary athlete and competitor. Messi is just a better footballer. You can love Ronaldo more. You can respect him more. You can prefer his story, his personality, his work ethic. All of that is fair. What you cannot do is put him above Messi anymore. The ledger is closed.” Cristiano is an all-time great. Messi is the greatest. That’s just how it is now.”

Yet His fans don’t want to admit that he literally retired from international football after years of disappointment, then came back. In 2019, he even complained that Brazil was handed the Copa América. Yet they’re doing the exact same thing now. Brazil won two Copa América titles in three years (2021 and 2024) after decades without one, and suddenly it’s all fine because Ronaldo had already won a major international trophy with Portugal. Then there’s the Negreira case. Players have known about the allegations for years, and even Florentino Pérez has claimed Real Madrid were robbed of multiple La Liga titles. Yet nothing significant happened to Barcelona, while Manchester City have faced far harsher consequences over their own case. Fast forward to MLS and you constantly see clips of Messi pushing opponents, making late challenges, arguing with referees, and somehow the other player ends up getting booked. He questions nearly every decision. Then there’s the 2022 World Cup. Many fans still argue that Argentina benefited from controversial decisions throughout the tournament. Whether you agree or not, those debates haven’t disappeared. A former Mexican referee also shared a story on a podcast, claiming that after he booked Messi years ago, Messi questioned why he was shown a yellow card and allegedly said, “I’m the best player in the world.” The referee said he replied, “And I’m the best referee in the world,” before walking away. He described Messi as acting childishly. The same referee also spoke about officiating a Portugal vs. Brazil match. He said Ronaldo approached him at halftime, told him he’d asked his teammates to calm down, and assured him the unnecessary fouls would stop. According to the referee, Ronaldo came across as respectful and genuine. At the end of the day, everyone is entitled to their opinion. Mine is that Argentina have benefited from too many controversial decisions in World Cup history. If they win another one, I’ll still believe every one of their stars came with major controversy.

🚨 Reporter asks Vinícius Júnior who the best footballer is between Neymar Jr., Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo: 🗣️ Reporter: “Vinícius, you’ve played with Neymar for Brazil and you’ve watched both Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo dominate football for years. Who do you think is the best footballer among the three?” 🗣️ Vinícius Júnior: “First of all, it’s an honour to even mention those names together. Neymar is one of the most talented players Brazil has ever produced. Messi is one of the greatest talents football has ever seen. Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the greatest athletes the sport has ever had.” “But if you’re asking me to choose one, I would say Cristiano Ronaldo.” 🗣️ Reporter: “Why Cristiano?” 🗣️ Vinícius Júnior: “Because when I look at football, I don’t just look at talent. I look at the complete picture.” “Cristiano proved himself everywhere. England, Spain, Italy and Portugal. Different leagues, different teammates, different coaches and different generations, but the result was always the same — goals, trophies and records.” “His mentality is something I’ve never seen before. Most players are satisfied after winning one Ballon d’Or or one Champions League. Cristiano kept wanting more.” “He turned hard work into an art form. Every young player in football has looked at Cristiano Ronaldo and learned something from him.” “What impresses me most is the longevity. For more than twenty years he has remained at the highest level while football constantly changed around him.” “People talk about talent, but discipline, sacrifice and consistency are talents too. Cristiano mastered all of them.” “Neymar inspired a generation in Brazil. Messi inspired a generation in Argentina. Cristiano inspired the entire football world.” “That is why, for me, Cristiano Ronaldo is the greatest footballer ever”. {beIN SPORTS }

What Messi does, I did too." 🎙| Zico also spoke about Cristiano Ronaldo declaring himself the best in the world: "Yes, he has to say it. People talk about him as if he's just a goalscorer. It's not just that. He's a huge reference for any player. The guy's there at 40 years old running more than a lot of people. I hope he scores 2,000 goals and, if I were starting today, I'd have him as my reference. I still have a wish to meet Cristiano Ronaldo and shake his hand and say thank you for what he does for football and for the footballer, for the professional he is." ❤💪

🚨🎙️Giorgio Chiellini:For me, Cristiano Ronaldo is the greatest player of all time. Messi is a phenomenal footballer, one of the best the game has ever seen, but Ronaldo is different when the pressure is at its highest. He turns up in the biggest moments, especially in finals. Time and time again, he has delivered when his team needed him most. “People talk about talent, but the hardest thing in football is scoring goals consistently, and Cristiano has done that for nearly two decades at the highest level. That’s why I call him the most clutch player I’ve ever seen. When trophies are on the line, you always expect Ronaldo to make the difference. “I had the privilege of playing alongside Cristiano at Juventus, and I enjoyed every minute of it. Seeing his mentality up close was incredible. Every training session, every match, he demanded the best from himself and everyone around him. “Before we became teammates, he was one of the hardest players I ever had to defend against. You could never relax because he always found a way. Whenever his team needed a goal or a big performance, he raised his level. That’s what separates the greatest from the rest. For me, Cristiano Ronaldo is the greatest footballer of all time.”

🚨🎙️Jamie carragher on who is the greatest of all time between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. ‘Messi is always painted as a saint’ ❌ 🗣️I’m no huge Ronaldo fan and that’s pretty obvious and that’s not for his football ability. I’ve actually got so much admiration for him and his mental strength, I just think it’s unbelievable. He’s probably one of the strongest mentally because he’s had that thing his whole career, for how good he is, Messi’s on his shoulder. He could never sit back and go ‘I’m the best’ and relax, it’s constant ‘you’re not as good as Messi’. “It splits people, but I’d say the majority of people would side with Messi - I would imagine. I think to always have that and to always have to prove people wrong, it’s almost like he feels he’s not rated - although he’s one of the best of all time - and I can’t help but admire that drive, because I’ve got that drive just not that ability that he’s got. “It’s sad for him the way people are speaking about Messi towards the end of his career and Ronaldo - it’s completely different. It’s nothing to do with what’s going on on the pitch, it’s that idea that Ronaldo was about himself, his ego whereas Messi is painted as this saint figure I don’t think that’s true.” Satire : That is why he is the best .

Millions of young players around the world tried to copy his skills, his confidence and his creativity.” “Messi showed people that football intelligence and technical ability can reach levels that seem almost impossible. He inspired an entire generation.” “But when we talk about global impact, I think Cristiano Ronaldo stands alone.” 🗣️ Reporter: “Why do you say that?” 🗣️ Ancelotti: “Because Cristiano’s influence goes beyond football itself.” “You can go to Europe, South America, North America, Africa, Asia or the Middle East and you will find people wearing Cristiano Ronaldo shirts, copying his celebrations and following his career.” “He became more than a football player. He became a global sporting icon.” “His impact reached fans who don’t even watch football regularly. Very few athletes in history have achieved that.” “He changed how footballers think about professionalism, fitness, preparation and longevity.” “When young players talk about discipline and hard work, Cristiano Ronaldo is usually the example they mention.” “Neymar had an enormous impact in Brazil and around the world. Messi inspired millions with his genius. But Cristiano’s influence crossed every border, every culture and every generation.” “For me, if we’re discussing pure global impact on football and football culture, Cristiano Ronaldo is number one.” “He didn’t just leave a mark on the game.

Messi kept going over to check on him, asking: ‘Are you okay?

Cristiano showed him the shoulder, and they both wished each other well.” “Messi and Ronaldo were never enemies — and they were never close friends either. What always existed between them was genuine respect.” “One constantly declared himself the best, while the other simply let his football speak. Together, they defined the greatest era the sport has ever seen.” 🐐 🐐

Luis de la Fuente on facing Lionel Messi and Argentina in the 2026 FIFA World Cup Final. 🗣️ “I’ll be honest if there was one team I didn’t want to face in a World Cup final, it was Argentina. And the biggest reason is Lionel Messi.” “At 39 years old, he’s still playing football that doesn’t make sense. Most players at that age are watching the World Cup from home. Messi is deciding semi-finals, creating goals, leading an entire nation and carrying the pressure of millions on his shoulders as if it’s nothing.” “I watched the match against England very closely. Argentina were behind, the game was slipping away, and then Messi reminded the world why he’s different. He didn’t panic. He didn’t disappear. He produced two moments of pure genius, two incredible assists, and suddenly Argentina were in another World Cup final.” “That is exactly what scares every coach. You can prepare for Argentina for months. You can analyse every player, every movement and every tactical detail. But there is no tactical board in the world that can fully prepare you for Lionel Messi when he decides to take control of a match.” “He doesn’t need ten chances. He doesn’t even need to score. One pass, one dribble or one touch is enough to destroy ninety minutes of perfect work. That’s why he’s still the most dangerous player in world football.” “People keep talking about his age. I stopped looking at his age a long time ago. When the biggest matches arrive, Messi doesn’t play like a 39-year-old he plays like the greatest footballer in history.” “As a coach, I have enormous respect for Argentina, but I’d be lying if I said Messi doesn’t keep me awake. When a player like that is on the pitch, you know your team has to be perfect for every single second. One lapse in concentration and he’ll punish you.” “Facing Argentina is difficult. Facing Argentina with Lionel Messi playing at this level is every coach’s biggest challenge. He’s still the player who can decide a World Cup final with one moment of magic, and that’s why the whole football world respects and fears him.”

Luis de la Fuente on facing Lionel Messi and Argentina in the 2026 FIFA World Cup Final. 🗣️ “I’ll be honest if there was one team I didn’t want to face in a World Cup final, it was Argentina. And the biggest reason is Lionel Messi.” “At 39 years old, he’s still playing football that doesn’t make sense. Most players at that age are watching the World Cup from home. Messi is deciding semi-finals, creating goals, leading an entire nation and carrying the pressure of millions on his shoulders as if it’s nothing.” “I watched the match against England very closely. Argentina were behind, the game was slipping away, and then Messi reminded the world why he’s different. He didn’t panic. He didn’t disappear. He produced two moments of pure genius, two incredible assists, and suddenly Argentina were in another World Cup final.” “That is exactly what scares every coach. You can prepare for Argentina for months. You can analyse every player, every movement and every tactical detail. But there is no tactical board in the world that can fully prepare you for Lionel Messi when he decides to take control of a match.” “He doesn’t need ten chances. He doesn’t even need to score. One pass, one dribble or one touch is enough to destroy ninety minutes of perfect work. That’s why he’s still the most dangerous player in world football.” “People keep talking about his age. I stopped looking at his age a long time ago. When the biggest matches arrive, Messi doesn’t play like a 39-year-old he plays like the greatest footballer in history.” “As a coach, I have enormous respect for Argentina, but I’d be lying if I said Messi doesn’t keep me awake. When a player like that is on the pitch, you know your team has to be perfect for every single second. One lapse in concentration and he’ll punish you.” “Facing Argentina is difficult.

Wild: Ryan Clark believes the Ravens need to make a trade for AJ Brown and that he would be a perfect fit for the team. “You pair him with Zay Flowers and you finally give Lamar Jackson a win one-on-one guy that will be inspired…He’ll be coming off a situation where people don’t know what type of player he is anymore. He has an opportunity to go prove that, to go scorched earth and show everybody who he truly is again with one of the best players in the game [Lamar] and Baltimore has been looking for that guy.” AJ would be UNSTOPPABLE with Lamar 😱

After the 2022 World Cup, Messi won FIFA THE BEST AWARD in early 2023 for the 2022 calendar year. In 2024 when it was time to give the FIFA THE BEST AWARD for the 2023 calendar year, Messi won it again, a year at which he went to MLS after spending half of that year in PSG with no national team accolade. Apparently Messi won TWO FIFA THE BEST AWARD for two straight years because of one World Cup. As in, they loved him so much they felt he deserved to win the award twice after finally winning the World Cup. Meanwhile Haaland that won a treble with Manchester City in 2023 calendar year after losing Ballon D’or to Messi had to watch Messi win the the FIFA THE BEST AWARD for playing in MLS and doing absolutely nothing. Pathetic stuff. Mind you, these pundits are huge Messi fans but even they were in shock!

Reporters Asked Lionel Messi what his thoughts were regarding Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal's exit in the World Cup to which he responded stating that Ronaldo was a FRAUD and that he wasn't good enough👀 "he was never good enough to take them all the way" "the fraud was only able to score on Uzbekistan"

🚨🎙️Gary Neville: Cristiano Ronaldo is the most complete player in the world Lionel Messi is great but he is above him 🗣️Look, there’s no doubt that Messi’s scored an obscene amount of goals. He’s a ridiculous player. But Ronaldo, the three big differences are the headers that Ronaldo has scored four or five times more the wrong-footed goals, that Ronaldo has scored 30 or 40 per cent more, and he has scored more penalties. It just took me to the point where he is more complete in terms of the most important part of the game. The thing that tips it over the edge even more is that international record, of the most international goals ever. The fact that he’s won five Champions Leagues with teams that aren’t even as good as Messi’s team. Messi’s won more league titles with that Barcelona team, but I just feel that the international goal record and the Champions Leagues, aligned with the variety of goals that he scores, even though they’re very similar [in overall numbers], takes me to think that he is the greatest player of all time. 🗣️I looked at his goal breakdown. He can score with his left foot, his wrong foot. He can score with his right foot. He can score from distance. He is probably the best poacher now in world football. He can score penalties. And if you stick him in the box and hang it up there he will go and score with a header. He might even score with a free-kick. 🗣️So if you think about who is the greatest player of all time, I do think he is the greatest football player who has ever lived. He is the player who could win me a football match in the most different ways. He is the most complete player.

🚨Kylian Mbappé was asked who the greatest footballer in history is between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi: 🎙️ Reporter: “Kylian, when people debate the greatest player of all time, where do you stand?” 🗣️ [Smiles] “I always try to avoid these questions because, honestly, we are talking about two players who changed football forever. “I have huge respect for both Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. They have dominated the game for nearly two decades and achieved things that many people thought were impossible. “But if I have to choose one, I would say Cristiano Ronaldo. “It’s not only about the trophies, the goals or the records — it’s about the journey. “He succeeded in different leagues, different countries and different teams. He won everywhere he went and adapted to every challenge. “What has always inspired me most is his mentality. His discipline, his work ethic and his desire to improve every single day are unmatched. “He showed the world that talent is important, but mentality and hard work can take you even further. “For young players, Cristiano proved that there are no limits if you are willing to sacrifice and push yourself every day. “That is why, for me, he is the greatest. #ARGAUT {talkSPORT}

I'm so glad that I watched Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in their prime. I feel sorry for the younger generation that would be gaslighted that Messi is the goat or the better player. Because Messi is currently performing better than Ronaldo they are now making it seem like the Messi vs Ronaldo debate is a Messi vs Lukaku debate. Aside banter, i will always give Messi his flowers, incredible players and he's having one hell of a tournament at 39. But the goat still remains Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aviero 🐐
