Thierry Henry, who played for eight years in the Premier League, believes that Ronaldo is the better footballer right now.
“First of all, you have to take into account that Leo Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are different players,” he told Record. “For sure they can play on any position from the midfield up, they both have extraordinary technique, but they are different. And, if Messi is scoring more goals nowadays, Ronaldo is a player that has scored more and topped the scoring charts last season.
“Then, the greatness of a player is measured by the titles he has helped his team conquer. Therefore, I have to recognise that Cristiano Ronaldo is better than Leo Messi.”
