Many criticize Cristiano Ronaldo for his ego! But the Lusitanian has nothing more to prove. He has won everything in his career and is considered by many to be the best player in history (the GOAT).
Only, Ronaldo doesn’t really need each other’s opinions. He himself considers himself the best player of all time and made it clear in December 2017 in Paris after his 5th Ballon d’Or.
“Common, it will never be! At the beginning of my career, my goal was to win a Ballon d’Or. When I arrived in Manchester, when I saw the turning point my career was taking, I told myself it wasn’t going to be impossible. I felt I had the potential to do it, the Real Madrid striker told France Football.
“I didn’t want to stay among those who have only won one. Given my potential, my talent and the effort I was putting into it, I knew I could have more ”.Cristiano Ronaldo was the first to say
Hey yeah, you heard right! Ronaldo is above all. The Lusitanian trivializes the comparison with his sworn rival, Lionel Messi, and forgets the feats of Diego Maradona, Pelé, Ronaldo Nazario, Ronaldinho.
“I won a Ballon d’Or before Messi. Then he overtook me by winning four in a row. I don’t hide from you that I was sad and angry at the time. I went to the award ceremonies and never won.
At one point I was even unmotivated. I didn’t want to come anymore. Being there for the photo didn’t interest me, she admitted. And then, little by little, thanks to the support of those close to me, I told myself that everything in life had a beginning and an end. And that in football it was the end that counted, not the beginning. I’ve been patient. “Ronaldo added
“I don’t see anyone better than me. No footballer does things that I cannot do. There is no player more complete than me. People have the right to prefer Neymar or Messi.
But I insist: there is no one more complete than me. (…) You will say that I have the boulard… But, when you are at the top, it is normal for you to be criticized. (…) I’m the best player in history, in good times and bad.a conclu Cristiano Ronaldo.
