Messi or Ronaldo, who's better?

Jose Mourinho refused to disclose his preference, instead calling them "from another planet". How alien are Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo? What do you think?

Jose Mourinho, the Real Madrid coach who considers himself "special" enough, elevates Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo to another level. Footballers "from another planet", he reckons.

The Barcelona and Real Madrid pair are both great, both playing brilliantly in the latest Clasico last Sunday. Messi and Ronaldo each scored two goals. The score ended 2-2.

They are now joint  top scorers in La Liga, with eight goals.

Who do you think trumps the other?

For two men who seem heads above the rest, click on the slideshow for their face-to-face encounters.

My dog is better.

Runs faster.
Juggles with its tail.
Saves with its mouth.
Scores with its nose.
