Well I dont think it should be 5 v 5 for Ballon D'Or's but those types of awards dont sway my decisions anyways.Not sure how its pretty clear myself, they are both great players and so much better than the rest of their generation it isn't funny.
Not sure how you could split them.
I just think Messi's goal scoring records and rates outweigh Ronaldo's and Messi is younger so whatever Ronaldo is doing now, Messi will catch and go by. I think Messi involves his teammates more than Ronaldo does as well.
But really it's more the eye test. Messi can just do things with a football that Ronaldo cant, he scores goals Ronaldo cant. He's an absolute and total freak. Ronaldo is blessed with athleticism and power and speed which Messi doesnt have and yet Messi still outshines him for me.
Just my opinion though.
