Thing is, it’s either him or Messi, definitely a two horse race, no one else is EVEN close, and in that two horse race…Either one could be the winner…For me, Ronaldo edges it, but only just…
Greatest of ALL time, though?
He isn’t even the greatest player called Ronaldo

He is though…As much as I loved Ronaldo, the fat one,… Ronaldo, the Cristiano variety, is far far superior as a player, his stats, his goals, his assists, and his trophies, far outweigh the fat Ronaldo…
Although, George Best, is the real GOAT…

LOL…Honestly, I love the original Ronaldo, supremely talented, and enjoyed his football…BUT, Cristiano is just …BETTER, sorry, but he is.
Only way I can judge it, is by who would I want in my team…
Fat Ronaldo would be fantastic to watch, pure outright entertainment…
Messi, similarly, great to watch…
Cristiano, GUARANTEED trophies, that’s what we are all here for…

Aaaaaaand you said better in capitals, too 
It’s hard to say. Ronaldo 9 is a far far better dribbler than CR7. Yea CR7 has much better goals/assists stats but Ronaldo is far better at dominating games by himself. CR7 doesn’t really dominate games by himself.
CR7 is far fitter than most versions of R9. Partly due to injuries and partly due to modern protein/steroids/diet/nutrition/training
R9 is the bigger talent, CR7 self actualised more so.

How many world cups did he win then? None because he’s shit
You’re right, he is shit…I mean he has hardly won any trophies, any medals, hardly scores any goals, gets no assists, AND never won any individual awards…Come on…

Needed an elite team to shield him. Pros like Maradona and Platini carried their useless nations to honours. CR7 needed baby sitting mate

But, by the same token, we can’t really say Ronaldo won it for them.
He was pretty crap the whole tournament, as were Portugal as a team, and when it came to the crunch, he was off the pitch anyway.

Outstanding in the semi finals though.
I have said this MANY times before…I was NEVER a Cristiano fan, thought he was a twat, a diver, a cheat and a scrawny little shitbag, but he went from being that sort of character, to the best player on the planet…Awesome for Madrid, awesome for Portugal, and just awesome all round…In my HUMBLE opinion, and that is all it is, he overtook Messi, and became the best player in the world…
Opinions are what makes football…
