The veteran shot-stopper has backed his teammate over the Argentinean captain, suggesting that if it was up to him he would chose the Madrid number 7.
Real Madrid’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296, claiming that the contribution made by the Portuguese international to help the Santiago Bernabeu based entity succeed is much broader and instrumental.
According to the Spanish international, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ronaldo-c31734 has done a great deal to help Madrid over the past few seasons and that his performance has been more useful.
He voiced that he would chose the former Manchester United footballer over Messi if he had to make the decision.
While talking to Cope, the goalkeeper was quoted as saying:
"I'd choose http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-c9622 over Messi because he's a player who gives us so much every season and he's a player I spend time with every day. I know him, know who he is, know how he trains, know what he wants and where he wants to get to."
Messi and Ronaldo are the two athletes who have been compared in almost everything. Each season, comparisons between the two footballers have increased as the media tends to make the most out of their footballing prowess.
The Argentine skipper and his Portuguese counterpart have established themselves as the best players in the modern game and are surely above the rest in terms of skill and talent.
The current season has also seen the two athletes constantly compared to one another.
It was this past Sunday’s El Clasico which particularly caught everyone’s attention, and once again, all eyes were on Messi and Ronaldo as they scored 2 goals each for their own respective clubs.
According to Iker Casillas, Ronaldo is the better player among the two.
Continuing the discussion, the World Cup winner went on to voice his opinion regarding a reported rift between http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-Ramos-c33096 and Jose Mourinho.
The shot stopper suggested that matters are perfectly harmonious at the Spanish capital and that he has support for both professionals.
"Whose side was I on? On Sergio's, supporting a team-mate who was going through a hard time. And the boss' because he's looking out for the team. It's not a question of siding with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-c33030 or the boss but supporting everyone equally."
