Both on form I'd go with Ronaldo. When on form Ronaldo can be a good dribbler and goalscorer. Robben is a bit one dimensional too.

They are both similarly good in missing important pens :coffee:

They both choke when it matters.

However, Ronaldo did a good job of scoring against Barca in the camp nou last season.
Robben did a good job of dispatching Manchester United in the CL at old trafford in a couple years ago.

I'd say they're about equal.

Overall robben is a better dribbler, and Ronaldo is a better goalscorer.

Ronaldo. As amazing as it may seem, dribbling is not the only thing that makes you a good player.. and that's all robben has along with his shooting which has been poor lately

Ronaldo by a bit of a margin. Ronaldo has been consistent for 6 straight years.

amazing how the big game choker ronaldo manages to score so many important goals at crucial times for us.

Ronaldo is a top 2 player for 6 years now. On top form, well, Ronaldo is still better by a mile.

A couple of years ago I would have said Robben narrowly. But for one reason or another Robben is really lacking the threat he used to have.
Ronaldo is the better player by a fair margain in recent times.
