Even for a club based in the "Cradle of Football", Everton's history is startling. In their 138 years of existence, they have spent only four years outside the top flight of English football. During this time, they have won nine League titles, five FA Cups and the 1985 Cup Winners' Cup. Since 1892, the club has been playing its home games at Goodison Park, the first major football stadium in England.

Messi is The Best Soccer PLayer “The world's best when I was growing up was Pele and he would have been a great player now, too, but Messi surpasses him. He's also way out ahead of Diego Maradona -- it's not even a close call any more”(‘m’ messi). Lionel Messi is an Argentine soccer player that currently plays with both Futbol Club Barcelona and his country Argentina. In the other hand, Cristiano Ronaldo is a Portuguese soccer player that is playing with Real Madrid Club de Fútbol and his country

Lionel Messi is arguably the greatest soccer player to ever live. His amazing goal-scoring ability has put him on heights players can only dream of. The way he dribbles past his opponents with ease brings fear to his upcoming defenders. Since his spell at FC Barcelona and the Argentinian national team, he has broken and set many world records countless of times, many of which being his own. The little Argentinian is nothing like our world has ever seen and is already considered to be a legend, despite

Ronaldo stands at 6'1" while Lionel Messi stands at 5'6 ½". Messi scored the memorable second goal against Manchester United, one of England's best teams, in the 2009 Champions league final with his head. But that was the exception to the rule.

If someone were to tell you that they've seen him gently push in 40 goals with one-touch kicks inside the goalkeeper's

Both giants in their own right, Barcelona and Real Madrid have traded success and feuded for a very long time. Both sets of fans have fought over which team is better – comparing players, stats, style of play, managers, stadiums, etc. B) What is your thesis? (this will be different than the Classical model thesis) Through the giant rivalry where both teams boast world-class
