If you had to pick one between Ronaldinho and Messi, who would it be?
Now, forget numbers and awards. We all know Dinho had a short career and Messi has been a solid beast for years.
I'm talking about talent and individual skill set.
See, I watch Messi play and there are those moments I'm amazed, he makes it look so easy, his vision, passing, finishing. Or better yet, a video with the highlights of his careers and damn, what a player. I liked his younger version more though, he seemed more daring as a younger player usually is. So many memorable moments in his career.
But then I watch a Ronaldinho best moments video and I forget about Messi. The guy somehow managed to do the impossible. Coming up with unbelievable dribbling skills that the world never saw before and probably won't ever again. The way he used to embarrass his markers. Just so above everyone else on the entertaining level. The ball was his bitch, literally. He was that star that died quick but shone the brightest.
