The former German team was consulted by his followers on social networks and turned to the Portuguese
Former German international Mesut Özil, who has appeared in the past in Real Madrid, Arsenal and other teams and has recently been marginalized to such an extent that he practically no longer plays with the Gunners, spends his time on social media talking to his fans.
Thus, an initiative called #AskMesut appeared, which means in English, ask Mesut, and one of his followers consulted him about the eternal debate between modern football fans, who was better, if Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo?

For Mesut, who has been with Cristiano for years when they shared at Real Madrid, there is no doubt. And that he has faced Messi several times, which makes his answer more valuable.
“Messi proved to be one of the best in Spain, but Ronaldo has always been the best of all the countries in which he played,” he wrote in response to the fan who consulted him.
In view of this, he has received much appreciation and appreciation, but also much criticism alike, in an eternal debate that has no clear answer beyond the fact that these are two of the best of all time, though, to taste the colors, and for Mesut, Ronaldo is the best.
Özil, in talks with his followers, admitted that he did not regret wearing the jersey of the German national team, despite the fact that he had to resign from Die Mannschaft amid racist insults. And he also praised several footballers, including Sergio Ramos, whom he defined as “the best defender in the world” of his generation.
