    voting for Messi and Ronaldo just ruins the poll cause obviously they're the best but then again both of them play sometimes on the outside and sometimes in the midfield and sometimes as the main forward. Its silly to argue about this.

    Ronaldo isn't a striker either

    Rooney is really a CF then since he generally plays behind a striker...

    I guess what it really comes down to is that the strikers with the most skill are not leashed to one spot on the field and can be moved to expose the weakness of whichever team they face.

    In this regard, players like Drogba, Torres and Ibra should not even be considered due to their limited abilities

    Agreed, many people label him shit and just a powerful striker without watching him play, his ball control and technique are second to none as far as strikers go. Same can be said for Llorente, he has much more to his game than his height advantage and strength.

    They scored the same amount of goals last season, and about a quarter of Ronaldo's goals came after they were already out of all competitions.

    He's also outscored him in each of the last three seasons. Well, they scored the same last season. Neutral

    I voted for Ronaldo, I like him as a player and his personality.

    On another note where is Van Persie, he is brilliant while on form.

    That's because Barca own Madrid in the CL regularly in terms of longevity in the tournament. More games = more opportunity to score.

    League only? Over the past 2 seasons Messi has scored more goals overall, with a better ratio(although the ratio is close)

    They are basically tied as goalscorers. Messi does it in about 10000000 times less shots and adds more to the team so why prefer Ronaldo? scratch

    Ronaldo has swagger but Messi is modest. Ronaldo has the looks, Messi does not. Ronaldo is tall, Messi is small.

    Okay last two year's UCL:

    Ronaldo - 13/18
    Messi - 20/24

    How is this even up for debate? The only clear advantage Ronaldo has is his height.
