Raul has scored the most number of goals in the UEFA Champions League up until now! He played some wonderful seasons with Real Madrid & he's doing a really good job in his current club FC Shalke. Raul is one of the best strikers of all time. He has 71 goals in the tournament up to now. The record for an individual season (discounting qualifying stages), is 14 goals, shared by José Altafini of AC Milan in 1962/63, and Lionel Messi in 2011/12 for Barcelona. The lowest number of goals scored by a top scorer in the current Champions League format was 6, by Alessandro Del Piero, while in the old European Cup format, seven different players tied for top scorer in 1987/88 - on 4 goals.
Messi is the best now shut up and go eat poo

Typically it's more of an opinion, but here are some facts for both of them in La Liga.Lionel Messi: Has played 24 games, scored 28 goals, gotten 8 assists and has taken 123 shots.Christiano Ronaldo. Has played 24 games, scored 29 goals, gotten 7 assists and taken 157 shots.So as you can see their stats are almost identical except for shots, which Ronaldo is leading. This could be seen as good or bad. It's good because he's making shots for himself, but bad because it seems that he may be taking shots that he shouldn't or that his accuracy is low.Personally I think that Messi is a more well rounded player, as in passing and seeing opportunities. Ronaldo can be a one man shows sometimes which isn't exactly bad if he's affective, but if he's not it's very bad.Dribbling: Lionel Messi (is considered the greatest dribbler of all time along with Maradona and R9)Skills and Tricks: Ronaldo (is considered best in footwork)Goal scoring: Overall: EQUAL--> Long-range: Ronaldo--> Dribble goals: Messi--> Freekicks: Ronaldo--> Chipping: Messi--> Penalties: Ronaldo--> Backheel: Ronaldo--> Team-play goals: Messi--> Headers: Ronaldo (due to Messi's height disadvantage)--> Scoring Records: Messi (highest scorer in a single year in history with 91 goals in the year of 2012.
