Frank Lampard Declares Messi and Ronaldo Equal in Greatness
Chelsea legend Frank Lampard has expressed his belief that Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are on equal footing in the realm of football greatness.
In a recent interview with Diario AS, the former midfielder emphasized that neither player should be considered superior to the other.
Lampard, who faced both superstars during his career, acknowledged their extraordinary talents and contributions to the sport.
He noted that he has played against Ronaldo numerous times, particularly during the latter’s tenure at Manchester United, while also facing Messi in several memorable matches between Chelsea and Barcelona.
When discussing Messi, Lampard remarked, “For me individually, in terms of talent, he is probably the greatest ever in my opinion.”
However, he also praised Ronaldo for his impressive work ethic, dedication, and remarkable goal-scoring record.
“What he has done in terms of self-improvement, numbers, and hunger means they are just there together,” Lampard stated.
The football icon stressed the importance of respecting both players equally, stating, “It’s not fair to try and put one above the other.
They’ve been the most amazing players.” With such high praise, Lampard joins the many who recognize the unique talents and achievements of both Messi and Ronaldo as they continue to shape the landscape of football history.
Former English footballer, Jamie Redknapp, makes bold suggestion regarding Mohamed Salah to leave the club, Liverpool.
The suggestion came after Liverpool manager Arne Slot criticized the player — a move Redknapp called out following Salah’s benching in the last match.
The former player shared “I don’t necessarily think in January. I just think we have got to let this settle. But I don’t foresee that he will see out the two years of his contract. I think it might be more in the summer.”
Arsenal football manager Mikel Arteta speaks on the team’s defeat against Aston Villa, 2–1, in their match on Saturday.
It can be recalled that Aston Villa scored a goal in the first half, but Arsenal scored back in the second half. After equalizing, Aston Villa scored another goal.
“In the first half we had moments, obviously had the best chance after a foul on Riccy [Calafiori] that Watkins goes through,” Arteta said.
“In the second half we started really well. Scored a goal and we were really dominant.”
Former Liverpool player, Jamie Carragher, speaks on Arsenal’s next match and claims that their game against Aston Villa will be challenging and described it as a test for the team to see how well they perform.
“Arsenal have looked the best team in the league by a long way so far this season, but Man City are still only five points behind.
There’s a long way to go and Arsenal will need to keep their heads! It could be tested tomorrow against Aston Villa!!”
