Who was better at the age of 17 - Michael Owen or Wayne Rooney?
It's a debate that's been sweeping social media during the past week after Owen backed himself against his former England team-mate.
Now Rooney has had his say - and he's been diplomatic.
"Michael and I are very different players," he said on the latest episode of The Wayne Rooney Show, which you can now listen to on BBC Sounds.
"I used to go out on the street and pretend to be Michael Owen - even though he played for Liverpool."
The debate began when former Liverpool and England striker Owen said on a recent Rio Ferdinand podcast: "I saw Wazza got asked who was the best out of us at the age of 17 or 18. And I did smile."
After being asked how he compared to other players at the same age, Owen said: "The only person you could possibly compare me to in our country is Wayne Rooney."
On Friday, BBC Match of the Day's X account asked - who was better aged 17, Michael Owen or Wayne Rooney?, external
And Owen replied claiming that he was.
Rooney, who is six years younger than Owen, said: "I think his comments are fair. Of course, he's going to back himself. I'd back myself.
"But, I'd never judge myself against Michael Owen because he's someone I actually looked up to and had the pleasure of playing alongside [for England and Manchester United]."
