Messi vs Ronaldo: I wish I could be like him - John Stones picks the best player
Manchester City defender John Stones has joined the debate over who is the better player between Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo and Paris Saint-Germain's Lionel Messi.
Speaking on Kit Collector (via Goal), Stones said he picked Messi ahead of Ronaldo when asked to choose between the two Ballon d'Or winners.
Stones also believes that the question has no definitive answer and that it is up to people to decide where their allegiance lies.
The England international added that he wished he could be like the Argentina captain.
"It's Messi for me. I don't think there's a right or wrong answer, it's just personal preference," Stones said.
He added: "I wish I could be like Messi with the ball and do what he can do and score goals. On the other hand, what Ronaldo brings physically and with different types of goals, they are both so good."
