Messi vs Ronaldo: He would probably have 15 Ballon d’Ors – Patrice Evra chooses GOAT

 


Former Manchester United vice-captain, Patrice Evra has picked former teammate, Cristiano Ronaldo as his GOAT (Greatest player Of All Time) ahead of Paris Saint-Germain’s Lionel Messi.

Speaking on Rio Ferdinand’s FIVE YouTube channel, Evra said if Messi had the same work ethic as Ronaldo, the Argentine would probably have 15 Ballon d’Ors today.

The Frenchman said, “I want to explain why I say Ronaldo, it is not because he is our brother. It is because I love his work ethic. I feel like Messi, God just gave him talent and said to go play with those kids.

“Cristiano had to work for it, even if he had the talent, he had to work for it. I think if Messi had the same work ethic as Cristiano, Messi would probably have 15 Ballon d’Ors today.

“I just love people that work hard and that is why I picked Cristiano and I know after the World Cup they say now the GOAT is Messi or whatever but Ronaldo is on a different level.

“If someone picks Messi I will agree with him but it is just that we have a different opinion, we just have to be blessed and grateful that we played with those players. There’s no wrong answer.”
