I really can't stand these comparisons between Ronaldo and Messi. Both fundamentally and practically. Fundamentally, it's ignorant to treat two players as separate entities than others. Especially when there are others who are at least as spectacular.
Practically, the only reason Ronaldo's ratings are high as they are is because he uses too much initiative and shoots a quarter of the of the balls he receives. Half the players in both Real and Barça are better players than him.
In my opinion, Ronaldo is the second best player of the current generation. And he earned that position by playing in different teams and tournaments. There is nothing wrong with comparing these two players since they, in most cases, carried their teams last season.
