You can't compare Messi and Ronaldo,They both play different places,Different positions.I find Ronaldo better.Messi just got popular cause of 1 goal which was like Maradona's. Apart from that I haven't seen Messi do too much.

Apart from that I haven't seen Messi do too much.messi and ronaldo play very similar positions. and messi is popular becuase he arguably the best player in the world when healthy. hes not as physically gifted as ronaldo but makes up for it w/ his quickness and balance. i can't believe u can say the only reason hes popular is because of 1 goal...outrageous statement.

Barry Can Go For £14m - ReportAston Villa now look to be resigned to losing club captain Gareth Barry to Liverpool and have accepted a bid of £14 million, according to a report...Barry, 27, has risen through the ranks at the club and enjoyed over 10 years in the first team, rising to particular prominence this season, in which he has managed to become a regular in Fabio Capello's England side.Liverpool registered their interest in the Villa's versatile skipper towards the end of the season to the fury of manager Martin O'Neill, who rejected their offer and slammed the manner in which they had approached the player.That offer was thought to have been worth £10 million - a part-exchange involving goalkeeper Scott Carson, who spent the season with the Villans - but now, as Liverpool have continued to press and Barry has been lured by the prospect of Champions League football, a fee of £14 million said to have been agreed.Reds boss Rafael Benitez has his own problems, though, as generating the finances for such a move will not come easily, despite securing a fourth place finish in the Premier League. Immense debts coupled with plans for a new stadium have left the Reds cash-strapped in the transfer market, and Benitez will have to offload some of his fringe players in order to finance the move for Barry.John Arne Riise, Jermaine Pennant and Peter Crouch are said to be top of the departures list, with the 6'7 striker particularly eager to leave for first team football and Portsmouth favourites to land his services.Meanwhile, Xabi Alonso is reportedly on the cusp of a move to Italian giants Juventus, and Barry will most likely act as a direct replacement for the Spanish international.Udinese left-back Andrea Dossena is on the verge of a £7 million move to Anfield, having already completed a medical, with Espanyol's Albert Riera rumoured to be next.
