Argentina look s*** defensively, not a chance in hell that they'll win the tournament.

Re: World Cup 2018 Match Thread
Messi is a great player, but honestly watching him get pushed off the ball by Iceland vs watching Ronaldo dominate spain.... Ronaldo looks miles better.

HOO!
It’s the noise, the passion, the feeling of belonging, the pride in your city.

Its a little bit different when there is 4/5 players around Messi whereas Ronaldo was marked by just one player.

Every single time I've seen either of them in a game Ronaldo looks better.

Oh dear Messi. He misses a fair few penalties.

He hardly dominated Spain though did he? His first was a pen, second was a complete f*** up by De Gea (that anyone else could have saved) and the third was a freekick.

Messi has poor game and misses penalty. Obviously Ronaldo is better.

I find the debate completely and utterly pointless. They're as good as each other and we're bloody lucky that we've been able to watch them do it at that level for year after year.

At his peak Messi was better than Ronaldo, but ive got to say Ronaldo is aging much better than Messi is, imo

Played a bit like Newcastle. Be hard to beat first, then try and score.
