The former France team-mates have had contrasting careers, but the Madrid man is still a model of consistency and hard work in Menez' eyes
Karim Benzema is still shutting his critics up, ten years into his career at Real Madrid, according to former international team-mate Jeremy Menez.
Menez and Benzema were part of the France team that won the under-17 European Championship in 2004, but the pair have had contrasting careers since then.
While Benzema went straight from boyhood club Lyon to Madrid in 2009 and hasn’t looked back, Menez has played for nine clubs in four countries and now finds himself in the French second tier with Paris FC.
