Former Liverpool player now consultant, Jamie Carragher has a strong opinion on the eternal GOAT debate between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Who, Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi, is the one and only GOAT? Since the coronation of “La Pulga” with Argentina, during the 2022 World Cup, the debate has been closed for many observers. An opinion shared by Jamie Carragher who did not wait to see the eight-time Ballon d’Or crowned with the Albiceleste to have a clear opinion on the question.
For the ex-Liverpool defender, now a consultant on the CBS Sports channel, “there was never a debate” between these two legends. “Ronaldo is far from having the level of Messi, he blurted. Ronaldo is one of the greatest scorers of all time, Messi is the greatest player of all time. Ronaldo scored goals, Messi scored goals and was an incredible player. »
Would the ex-England international have a grudge against “CR7”? Possible… The two men have been at odds since the former Reds player criticized the Portuguese striker by saying he was not a good signing for Manchester United, after his return to Old Trafford. On the sidelines of an English derby between MUFC and LFC, Ronaldo then gave him a huge blow.
