Personally, I feel that there can't be a perfect answer to this question, not when we have a certain Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. Both players have done incredible things in football in this 21st century and because we have football fans who of different beliefs on who's better, we'll continue to have this debate of who's better between both. Personally, I'm a Cristiano Ronaldo fan whose love for the Portuguese superstar can't be underestimated but without being sentimental, I won't deny the fact Lionel Messi is also another great player in his own ranks. They're the two best players of 21st century but talking about who's better between them, I personally think it's Cristiano Ronaldo
Everyone's assessment of the two great players is always different especially when everyone always associates them with the number of achievements that both of them have achieved since they were young until now. But I also personally prefer Cristiano Ronaldo as the player I really like because he has had more achievements and records in every League he has played in so the individual trophy awards received by Cristiano Ronaldo are also very diverse even though the number may not be too much.
