What to do when you’re torn right down the middle with a dilemma?
Introduce a third option and just pick that, easy!
Mesut Ozil adopted that tactic when he was recently asked to settle the debate on who is the greatest footballer of the modern era – Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo.
While the Arsenal and Germany star acknowledged that both were among the best players he’s ever seen, Ozil threw a curve ball in the mix by bringing a third name to the table.
“They are both truly world-class players,” Ozil began, in a video appearing on Mirror.co.uk.
“But I am and always will be a [Zinedine] Zidane fan. So I say Zidane.”
