There is no end in sight for the long-running GOAT debate between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
It is a serious discussion topic in bars, barbershops, and five-a-side pitches, but neither side has ever agreed on who the GOAT is. Former Manchester United star Paul Pogba has come up against Messi and Ronaldo and has made his pick in the debate.
Ronaldo and Messi were the two best players in the world between 2008 and the early 2020s. They took their talent to an unprecedented level in La Liga, breaking almost every record in the book.
Messi’s FIFA World Cup win in 2022 seemed to cement his status as the GOAT, but Ronaldo fans have never backed down.

“There’s no Ronaldo or Messi. If I have to make a team, if I need to score goals, I will take Cristiano. Really, only to score goals. But if I need a playmaker who can score goals and make assists, I’ll take Messi. Everyday,” he said via Give Me Sport.
In another clip, Pobga doubled down on his take.
“You like Cristiano, I love the style and everything. Some people love Messi, because do you see what he’s doing? Messi is different. Have you ever seen Messi? He’s like that, right [short]? But you think you can push him and stuff like that. How can a person like this – so small – do this to people?”
Ronaldo recently reached a new milestone, but his lack of a World Cup is seen as a dent in his illustrious career.
