Griezmann names 1 player who can rival Ronaldo and Messi in debate as the greatest

- Zinedine Zidane has been rated by Antoine Griezmann as one player that can rival Ronaldo and Messi

- Griezmann even believes that winning the World Cup title with France places Zidane high than Messi and Ronaldo

- He added that Zidane needs to enter the debate with Messi and Ronaldo to be known as the GOAT

Antoine Griezmann has made it clear that Frenchman Zinedine Zidane is the only man that can rival Ronaldo and Messi in the debate as the greatest player of all-time.

Barcelona star Lionel Messi and Juventus forward Cristiano Ronaldo are currently both considered as the greatest players of all time considering their performances and achievements.

Antoine Griezmann has now stated clearly that Zinedine Zidane needs to enter the debate to be known as the GOAT.

The 2018 World Cup winner added that his opinion is based on the fact that he never watched the duo of Pele and Diego Maradona.

Griezmann also explained that Zinedine Zidane has one major aspect that gives him the advantage over the duo of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.

"It depends on the time, but I would say Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo.

"I never saw Pele or Diego Maradona or how they played. It's a complicated question because everyone has their own style.

"Zinedine Zidane is also there. He won a World Cup and Messi and Cristiano haven't done that,'' Griezmann told Oh My Goal.

Zidane left Spanish club Real Madrid after winning the 2018/19 Champions League title, and he has been out of job since then although he was linked with Chelsea recently.

Earlier, Legit.ng had reported how former Real Madrid gaffer Zinedine Zidane is reportedly interested in becoming the next Chelsea manager only if the Blues will agree with his terms and also keep superstar Eden Hazard.

Since the Frenchman left reigning European League champions Real Madrid, he has been out of job although he was linked with Manchester United before the club hired Ole Solskjaer.

Current Chelsea handler Maurizio Sarri has been under fire this season with reports suggesting that the Blues' board may show him the exit doors before the end of the season.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase of African Poetry

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
