Former England boss Fabio Capello has weighed in to give his opinion on the Cristiano Ronaldo-Lionel Messi debate.
Messi and Ronaldo are the two stars of their generation, winning 13 Ballon d'Ors and numerous titles between them, but it has long been a divisive issue in the game over who is better.
Several big names have sided for one or the other, with the likes of Eden Hazard and Gary Lineker on the Argentine's side, while others such as Roy Keane have backed Ronaldo.
And Capello - who coached teams including AC Milan, Real Madrid and Juventus during his distinguished career in the dugout - has chimed in and explained his view for a 'simple' reason.
'[Ronaldo] is a great player,' he said when speaking at the Laureus World Sport Awards in Madrid.
