Who is the greatest? This debate between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo could continue for generations because they have dominated the game for so long. Hence, fans love to argue to find who is the better of the two. It is an age-old debate that reached its peak when Ronaldo and Messi battled it out in the El Clasico. And now, they have joined Al Nassr and Inter Miami in the twilight years of their career. But still, fans argue about who is better, even players too. Sergio Aguero is one person who regularly uses the platform Twitch to voice his opinions. 

And in a recent episode, he explained how Ronaldo was a ‘normal player.’ Fans took to social media and criticized the Argentinian icon for making such an opinion. But the soccer star failed to comment on the incident and explained his thought process while stating his opinion.

He chatted with King’s League streamer Ibai Llano and explained how they just joked about it. Aguero stated Ibai’s Real Madrid connections forced him to argue with him about the player. Thus, Aguero also told how he didn’t care about the criticism he received. Aguero mentioned, “The criticism I received for saying that Cristiano Ronaldo was a ‘normal player’? I don’t give a s**t what people tell me. I was with Ibai, and I was saying it as a joke because Ibai is a Madrid fan. That’s why I said he was a ‘normal player’, as a joke.”
