all the people who have ever said Ronaldo or Rooney are next to Messi are absolute morons. Messi has been the best player in the world for the past 3 years. Its the English media thats perpetuated the fallacy that they can really stand up to him
And by the way i think Xavi and Essien are right behind Rooney and Ronaldo, in fact Essien might be the second best.
He did score this blinder that everyones forgotten, Makalele never did anything like this

Nice to see this whole thread being taken up with South West London club matters; my friend who goes to Griffin Park remains pessimistic about Brentfords future prospects. I do hope the Palace stay up though. QPR ive never been able to love.
