he Colombia international has described the pair as
'the two most important players in the world' but feels that the
Portuguese ace has the edge
Monaco striker Radamel Falcao believes that Real Madrid icon Cristiano Ronaldo is a better player than Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi.
The Colombia international is a huge admirer of both players, having played alongside them in La Liga for two years before leaving Atletico Madrid for Monaco during the summer.
However, as far as Falcao is concerned, the Portugal international is the slightly superior talent.
"I had a physical problem and it was not
convenient to play," he stated. "It was risky. It was not a serious
injury, but it could have turned into something worse."

"Messi
and Cristiano are the two most important players in the world today but, for
me, Ronaldo is the best," the 27-year-old striker told El Tiempo.
Falcao only
returned to the Monaco line-up just before the winter break after a spell on
the sidelines with an injury that some reports suggested was merely a
convenient way of covering up an alleged falling-out with coach Claudio
Ranieri.
However, the
former Porto forward insists that there was no truth in the rumours that he had
been dropped and was trying to force through a move away from the Stade Louis
II.
