Mason Greenwood Picks A Surprising Side In Messi vs Ronaldo Debate
Talking to Manchester United‘s club media, Mason Greenwood was asked to pick the better player between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
“For me, it’s always got to be Messi. For me, he’s just on another planet,” the youngster said.
“Ronaldo is obviously amazing, a physical, great athletic footballer. But to do what Messi does at his size, what he’s done for Barcelona and winning that trophy for Argentina, he is just on another level.”
