Fabio Capello believes Lionel Messi is more skilful than Cristiano Ronaldo

Fabio Capello has further stoked the fire over who is better between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, saying that the Barcelona player is 'more skilful' than his Real Madrid counterpart.

It has always been a source of debate over which player is better between Ronaldo and Messi, with both players setting the bar way higher than their peers. 

"Cristiano is a powerful player, with very good technique, but he does not possess the pure technical skill of Messi," the Russian national team manager told AS. 

"Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi are two extraordinary players but they are different," said the Russia manager, who attempted to sign Messi on loan for Juventus in 2005.

"Leo Messi is a very difficult player to play against.

"When I saw Messi play I knew he was special. I could see that he could do things that didn't occur to other players."
