When players of the current generation are asked the name of the player from the past they would have liked to play with the most, most select Ronaldo Nazário or Ronaldinho. However, that was not the case with Cristiano Ronaldo.
Erling Haaland finally brings out the truth: “I eat heart and liver because …”
For a long time, in a dynamic with SOCCER.COM, Manchester United 7 was asked to name a legend (considering all football history) with whom they would like to share a team. And even though he made it clear that it was a very complicated decision, he ended up opting for one of the best scorers of all time.
For what he has done for his country, for his legacy and for the bond he will always have with the Portuguese national team, El Bicho has named the perennial Eusebio as his dream attacking partner.
“If you could play any football player in the entire history of the game, who would it be?” That’s what they asked him, in a video (2019) that is on the SOCCER.COM channel.
And the all-time top scorer in professional football simply replied: “It is a very difficult question. In my head I have many players with whom I would have liked to play, but I will name one from my country: Eusébio “
He is one of the sons of Portugal and I would have liked to play with him because he is Portuguese and he was an incredible person. He passed away a few years ago, but I would have liked to have played with him in the national team.
Both are winners of the Ballon d’Or, both have obtained the Golden Boot, both are historical bosses of the Portuguese national team, both have the European Cup in their honor and both score more than 1,300 official goals at an overall level. Cristiano Ronaldo alongside Eusebio would have been an outrage to any defense.
