Young Cristiano. Messi. R10. R9. Maradona. Neymar. Zidane.
I've always been a fan of the playmaker type players which is why I put Iniesta in that bracket too. Just pure footballing ability. Some have come close, like David Silva, Fabregas and Ozil.
I remember as a little kid my first time watching Cristiano in the 06 World Cup. All I could think was wow who is this guy he’s incredible. I still have my old knock-off number 17 Portugal jersey, and it’s signed :D
Manchester Cristiano was cool indeed. He lost the magic to become a pure striker which is legit due to his numbers. But when we look at his career, seems like we are watching 2 or 3 completely different players
The numbers dont have anything to do it has to do with his injuries, he had better stats overall when he played as a winger
