Obviously that's why Barca had great team - Xavi, Iniesta and Neymar and Suarez and Puyol and like others were all great. No one can say Messi carried that team because they had great team.
Messi himself admits this.
Messi gets more credit because he was allover the contributions - a play maker likes of which this world hasn't seen
I know Ronaldo played less but even if you extrapolate his average it still won't be close to Messi Assists and that's for comparison that Messi isn't just about Scoring goals but also about creating chances and assists.

Any of his old teammates would have scored that. Place a bad player in a great team and they’ll still do amazing. Place a great player like Messi, Ronaldo or Lewandowski in a shit team and they won’t do anything.
Poor Lewandowski is living that
My point is teams deserve more credit than superstars in them do.
