Ronaldo scored his 50th hat trick on Sunday

[life on mars]

Missed this achievement on Sunday , as we were so buried in the drifts of snowgate , just incredible 50 hat tricks ,really 😮

[J R Hartley]

After a slow start to the season his form in 2018 is incredible. Averaging 1.5 goals per game so far in 2018.

[J R Hartley]

21 in 13 games in 2018, and he didn’t score in the first 2 games of 2018 so it’s actually 21 in 11.

Only failed to score once in the last 11 games, and scored 2 or more in 8 of those 11 games, including 3 goals against much fancied PSG in the last 16 of the CL.

That’s an incredible run of goals even by his standards.

I know your game buddy!
He played really well Sunday best I've seen him for a long time.
Still some way off being a better player than Messi and you know it, but im not getting into this today

I didnt even mention Messi

Im just reeling a set of amazing statistics, which even the most ardent of Ronaldo haters such as yourself cannot argue with.

I appreciate both players, its just a shame others cant and have to pick sides. We are privelaged to witness both these players, at their peak, at the same time.

Of course we are but I'm not having that you weren't fishing for bites for one second

I wasnt, but fair enough my reputation goes before me.

It is outstanding. He's a machine.

However, if Messi was as greedy, and his team mates passed to him everytime, even if there was a better option, then he'd probably have scored double what Ronaldo has.

Shock Horror!

Team gets ball to their best player as quickly and often as possible.

Ronaldo is the best in-and-around-the-box player the world has ever seen. A brilliant finisher.

Imagine a front three of peak Ronaldo, Ronaldo and Ronaldinho.
Messi can play as a number 10, but only if he incorporates Ronald in his name in some way.

Maybe he can dress as Ronald MacDonald.

I've always thought that if Original Ronaldo hadn't had the terrible injuries he had from about 22 onwards, he'd have become the greatest of alltime by some distance.

Wait til he finds out you been two timing him with Messi

[Wales-Bales]

Messi is the greatest player never to have scored 50 hat-tricks NQAT

I was thinking of adding at the end "but it's now Messi" but thought you would already know that

Ronaldinho is mine

You also have to consider his age ,he must a physically very fit ,he's got a good age gap on his understudies ,such as Messi ,Neymar and Zahore.

[jamieccfc]

Ronaldinho is mine

Wouldn't argue with that the amount of videos I've watched of his and he's just training It's frightening what he could/can do with a ball

He doesn't really cover much ground anymore just sticks to what he's good at but it's not as if he's the first footballer to still be world class at 33

If I was a manager and I had a player with Ronaldo's strike rate, I would attach him to the penalty spot on a 6-yard leash.
