Football: Messi and Ronaldo Right to ignore each other

This debate over who is the best player in the world really is quite boring. Of course, the two stand-out candidates are Lionel Messi and Christiano Ronaldo, both of whom ran riot in La Liga and Europe last season; yet to choose between the two is rightly impossible.

Some will claim Ronaldo has the power and single-minded raw talent to drag his team to a domestic title, something he did last season with Real Madrid and for Manchester United in 2009. 

Yet others will point to Messi’s almost magical ability to beat defenders, pick a lock, and entertain the Barcelona crowd when pondering what makes him the greatest player maybe of all time. 

What is certain, however, is that this discussion, often waged on online betting forums, is both pointless and dull. What a relief therefore that Messi has come out this week to quell the daily reports that there is some sort of competition between the two players. 

“With Cristiano, I have absolutely no problem,” claimed Messi, on the eve of the Spanish season. “All that is said about us is to do with the press who want us to have our own personal battle, but I have never competed with him or fought him.

“I just try to do my job in the best way possible to win trophies for my national team and Barcelona.”

Surely that puts to rest this ridiculous media circus that has for some years now tried to fuel a feud between these two legends of the game. When Barcelona play Madrid, these two are hardly ever in the same half, let alone close enough to unleash this apparent intense hatred towards each other.

The media seriously need to find a new talking point ahead of the new season. Rather than make pointless comparisons between the two, why not just sit back and enjoy the football.

The Barclays Premier League will also celebrate its opening day, this weekend. Manchester City are the current favourites to claim the title, coming in at 1/1 with some bookmakers.
