Former Manchester United boss
Sir Alex Ferguson says Lionel
Messi is purely a Barcelona
product but believes Cristiano
Ronaldo would be a success
anywhere in the world.


The Barca and Real Madrid
forwards have won the last
seven Ballon d'Or awards
between them, marking the pair
out as the two best players of
their generation and among the greatest to have ever played the
game.

Ronaldo already has 50 goals this season, while Messi has shone since the turn of the year to help
inspire the Catalans to the top of
La Liga at Madrid's expense.

And Ferguson, who managed
Ronaldo for six years before the
Portugal international left Old
Trafford for the Santiago
Bernabeu in 2009, has backed
his former protege as the more
complete footballer.
"Ronaldo is tough," the Scot told
BBC Sport. "People say 'who is
the player in the world' and
plenty of people quite rightly say
Messi. You can't dispute that
opinion.

"But the thing about Ronaldo...
Ronaldo could play for Millwall,
QPR, Doncaster Rovers or anyone and he'd score a hat-trick. I'm not sure Messi could do it.


"Ronaldo's got two feet, he's
quick, he's good in the air and
he's brave, though Messi's brave
too of course. I just think Messi is a Barcelona player."
