Gary Lineker has disputed Sir Alex Ferguson's controversial claim that Cristiano Ronaldo could succeed anywhere unlike Lionel Messi, who is simply a " Barcelona product".
The legendary Manchester United manager's comments are from 2015 but have resurfaced in the wake of Messi's recent struggles at Paris Saint-Germain as the French giants were knocked out of the Champions League. The French giants suffered an embarrassing collapse against Real Madrid as the Argentine was unable to make a significant impact over the course of the tie.
That's been the common theme throughout his debut season at the Parc des Princes as the Barcelona icon has failed to replicate the form he showed on a consistent basis at the Nou Camp. Many believe the 'greatest all of time' debate between Messi and Ronaldo has now shifted in favour of the Portugal star, prompting Ferguson's old comments to re-emerge.
