Ronaldo vs Messi
Before I start, let's just make it clear that Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi are the 2 absolute best players in the world right now. This argument has gone on for about 2-3 years now since Messi has established himself as maybe the best ever. Mainly between Madrid and Barca fans, Madridistas say Ronaldo's better, while Barca fans say Messi's better. I have no idea who's better, but I might be leaning very, very slightly towards Ronaldo. The only reason I say this is because I think Ronaldo might be a little more well rounded as a player than Messi is. Ronaldo and Messi both have great speed, footwork, positioning, vision etc., but Ronaldo can do just a little bit more than Messi can. Unlike Messi, Ronaldo isn't as tall as an 11 year old girl and can also jump higher than Michael Jordan in the mid-90s. Because of this, Ronaldo can get headers nearly 10 feet in the air and we saw this in a game earlier this season(look it up on YouTube, it was ridiculous how high he got). Before I start sounding like I'm Ronaldo's lover, let me talk about Messi now. Why oh why did Messi's ancestors have to leave Italy and move to Argentina? Every time I watch Barcelona, I just stare at Messi the entire time. His ability to make defenders looks like statues is amazing and every goal he scores looks so incredibly easy. He could be running as fast as he can and his touches are as soft as ever with the ball never more than 5 inches from his foot. Seventy-three goals in a season and 91 in a calender year is insane! I never thought I'd see that in my life unless Pele drank out of the fountain of youth and started playing again. The only thing that makes Real Madrid-Barcelona matches interesting for me is watching Ronaldo and Messi go head to head and see who has the better game. The battle for "Who's Better" between Ronaldo and Messi will never end until they both retire, but it will be remembered forever because these are two living legends and we are lucky enough to be able to watch them every weekend. The ultimate match would a Portugal-Argentina World Cup final. That will make the media have an instant orgasm. Overall, I'm going to give it to Ronaldo, but only by the slightest margin. He just has that very little extra to his game simply because he's not shorter than everybody else on the field. If Messi could go up and get headers the way Ronaldo does, then I'd have absolutely no clue who's better.

Why I Can't Stand Neymar
WARNING: THIS IS A RANT
Neymar is probably the most over dramatized, over talked about, overrated, flopping pu**** of a footballer I have ever seen. Every single time the guy gets "tackled" or really what I consider, slightly touched, he flies through the air and crashes to the ground like he just got sniped in the head while jumping off a cliff. He does absolutely nothing for his team. He doesn't score, plays ZERO defense and can't play anywhere else other than on the wing. The only qualities he has is incredible speed, footwork and hairstyling. When I heard Real Madrid were willing to toss 100 million euros for the flying pu**** cake, I nearly threw myself down a flight of stairs. What does Madrid even need him for? Help Ronaldo do his hair at halftime? Neymar is a disgrace to one of the most storied national teams in the world. I can't even believe Pele compliments him at all. Why am I even wasting my time writing about him right now anyway? I'm done, thank you for wasting your time reading about Neymar as well.

Gareth Bale
Gareth Bale has shot into the scene of the football world this season. With 17 goals for Tottenham and only 23 years old, it looks like a bright future for the Welsh international. Although, I do think he is being at least slightly overrated and this is probably simply because he plays in the Premier League. The EPL is like the Lakers of football with all the media attention no matter what's happening. The British media may be the most bias media in the world. They act as if Bale is better than Messi or Ronaldo, I wouldn't even say he's better than Stephen El Shaarawy of Milan. I don't want to sound like I'm putting Bale down, but let's see him do this again next season. One season doesn't define how good you are. Anyways, I hope Bale can keep this up because the more talent there is in the world, the more interesting everything else becomes.
