I'd be curious to hear from people who watched them both how they'd compare peak Ronaldinho to peak Messi. I see crazy highlights from Ronaldinho and wonder if the fact that he rarely enters the GOAT conversation is mostly down to how brief that period of his career was (relative to the likes of Messi and Ronaldo), and maybe the fact that played a position where he wasn't scoring goals as much? Or even at his peak, was he still not quite the player Messi was?

Also just to clarify, I know he does get talked about among the greats, but I feel like he's generally accepted to be a slight tier below Messi/Ronaldo/Pele/Maradona/etc
