Go down as one of the GOAT? Obviously not at this point in his career but considering he is the best player in the world at age 23 I could see him possibly becoming one of the greatest

He has to have international success. Pele, Maradona, Zidane, Beckenbauer, and Ronaldo have all won World Cups.

The same goes for Messi.

FYI, the economy will collapse in late 2008.

Put your money in bonds.

Not even close, he would have to carry Portugal to the cup in 2014 then resurrect his 2008 form for a few years all at the same time not coming off as a huge douche bag. Even after all that he wouldn't be the goat, just on that top tier.

Ronaldo has dominated the EPL and La Liga. It's not inconceivable that he goes down as one of the best. I'd put him in the Samuel Eto'o category of being a BAMF but lacking national team notoriety through no fault of their own (i.e. not having a brilliant manager and having a poor/not elite supporting cast).

Look, CR will go down as one of the top 3 players of his generation. He is undoubtedly, in my mind, the best goal scorer in the game today. GOAT is harder to decide.
