Messi or Ronaldo? The Eternal Question

Their are many eternal questions in this world. Where do we come from? Is there a God? Why is Kerry Katona famous? But perhaps the biggest question of all is, Who is better Messi or Ronaldo? But unlike the other questions (people may never know out why Kerry Katona is famous?) this one has a very clear answer. Messi. There is no doubt that these two are the best players in the world right now. Their skill is unrivalled by anyone in the world right now (though Pele would disagree). Both have one everything their is to win except the World Cup. That is one of the big differences between them. If Messi wins the World Cup, he will be regarded as the greatest ever (lots of people do already), if Ronaldo won it he would be considered one of the best ever. They both play for the two best clubs in the world. Their is nothing Ronaldo can't do that Messi can't do a little bit better (except maybe free-kicks). Ronaldo scores 41 goals in one season, Messi scores 53. Ronaldo's won the Champions League once, Messi thrice. Then there is their style of play. Messi is much more selfless, if he and one of his team mates are against the goalie, he will pass across where as Ronaldo will shoot. Messi only runs when he knows he can score where as Ronaldo will run even if he's surrounded by the entire opposing team. Maybe it's the team ethic that means they play like this. It's like comparing Coke and Pepsi. Coke is just that teeny bit better that means lots more people drink it and it's so refreshing to see someone as good as Messi.
