Reece James has been criticised on Twitter for having ‘zero football knowledge’ after saying that Cristiano Ronaldo is better than Lionel Messi.

Another added: ‘Overrated player supporting another overrated player. We understand’.

James also answered other questions, including one on the toughest opponents that he has faced in his career so far.

The 22-year-old chose three left wingers in Real Madrid’s Vinicius Junior, AC Milan’s Rafael Leao and former Liverpool star Sadio Mane, now of Bayern Munich.

James wrote: ‘3 hardest players I’ve ever played against are all left wingers! Vinicius Jr, Leao and Mane!’.

James had hoped to be included in England’s World Cup squad, but a significant knee injury put paid to those plans.

It is hoped that James will be available shortly after the resumption of club football at the end of this month.
