Ronaldo Nazario's Top Ten List Snubs Cristiano Ronaldo, and Rightly So!
Ronaldo Knows His Footy
When it comes to the beautiful game, you can't argue with Ronaldo Nazario. The man's a legend, and he knows his stuff. So when he says that Cristiano Ronaldo isn't in his top five, you better believe he's got his reasons.
Messi and Maradona? Obvious Choices, Mate
Ronaldo's got Pele at number one, and fair play to him. The bloke was a magician on the pitch. And having Messi and Maradona tied for second? That's just good sense. These lads could dribble circles around most players today, and they made the game look easy.
Zico, Romario, and the Rest of the Bunch
Zico, Romario, Van Basten, Zidane, Figo, Rivaldo, Ronaldinho... these lads were the real deal. They had the skills, the flair, and the goals to back it up. Cristiano Ronaldo? He's good, but he's no Zidane or Ronaldinho.
Neymar Gets a Mention, and Why Not?
Ronaldo even threw Neymar into the mix, and why the hell not? The kid's won the Olympics, and he's a class act on the ball. He might not have the World Cup, but he's still a top player in anyone's book.
Ronaldo's Got Big Plans for Brazilian Footy
And let's not forget, Ronaldo's got plans to shake up Brazilian football. He wants to be the CBF president and sort out the mess they're in. Good on him, I say. The game needs more people like him, who know what they're talking about and aren't afraid to make big calls.
So, Cristiano Ronaldo Fans, Pipe Down
So to all you Cristiano Ronaldo fanboys out there, just accept it. Your boy's not the best, and he never will be. Ronaldo Nazario's said it, and that's the end of it. Now, let's get back to watching some proper footy, shall we?
