"Messi would have 15 Ballon d'Or awards if he had Ronaldo's work ethic"

Former Manchester United player Patrice Evra once again compared footballers Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. His comments on Rio Ferdinand's YouTube channel 'FIVE' went viral on social media.
"I want to explain why I say Ronaldo every time. It's not because he's our brother it's because I'm in love with work ethic.
"I feel like Messi, god just gave him a talent and Cristiano had to work for it. He had the talent but he had to work for it," he continued.
"If Messi had the same work ethic as Ronaldo, he would probably have like 15 Ballon d'Ors today. I'm just in love with people working hard so that's why I pick Ronaldo over Messi," he said.
