When you are the best players in the world, you are bound to make it into the FIFPro World XI every season. It's no surprise that the duo has been in the team from 2007.

Despite making it to the team ten times each, it's Messi who's got to get more praise for this. He is two years younger than the Portuguese international and still has managed to match him.

Ronaldo aims to play for Real Madrid until the age of 40, but he is not likely to make it to the team in 3-4 years time. Messi might have it in him to get into the team for another 5-6 years, but until then, this record is bound to be shared between the two.
