The best markers in 2019 so far, CR7 not in the top 10
Ashley Cole, who represented two Premier League giants at Arsenal and Chelsea, is considered by many to be England's best left-back.
The back side, who now plays for Derby County, was asked to reveal who he found the hardest to score between Messi and Ronaldo.
"It must be Messi," he replied Monday night football from Sky Sports.
"People talk more about Ronaldo because I play more against him.
"But I think to mark Messi, the day of his departure … he was too good for me.
"But again, he has never scored (against me)."

After a successful career in England, Cole joined Roma in Italy before joining MLS with LA Galaxy. The 38-year-old joined Frank Lampard's Derby during the transfer in January, but has not yet played a game for the Rams.
