It was no surprise this year that Cristiano Ronaldo received for the fifth time “The Golden Land” in Paris. The Real Madrid Superstar is now at the same level as Lionel Messin of Barcelona in this direction, with “avantazin” of the Argentineans finishing second in the ranking after Neymar took the bronze medal. Both have shared the last 10 awards (“Golden Cup” between them, with Kaka, the last player to break “dupolin” in 2007. As such, many appreciate Ronaldo, as well as Messin, the two best players on the planet, although many fans disagree on this ranking that should be decided. After receiving for the fifth time “Golden Cup”, Ronaldo announced to the world that “is the best football player he's ever played”.

He has some evidence to support that claim. In fact, there are many signs for his claim, and one of them comes from another silver icon. Diego Maradona. When asked in an interview with “AS” about the CR7 statement, he had a very epic answer.
Maradon's Fine Answer
Diego Maradona: “tell him to stop speaking nonsense (scoffs)”
Interviewer: “If Cristiano is the best in history, what does that make you?”
Maradona: “That's why I said stop speaking nonsense”

Later, Maradona continued to discuss “The Golden Land” as a whole and gave a very interesting mirror.
Interviewer: “
Maradona: “Buff... Like a trophy... It's very hard to give only one Golden “Top” to a player, because giving it to a Cristerian and Mess... has become boring now”
Interviewer: “Isn't there anyone else in the elite that deserves it? ”
Maradona: “Maybe Cavani, Mbpé, Ibrahimovic, but I don't know”
Interviewer: “Return to your day, non-European players couldn't win “The Golden Land”...
Maradona: “

In reality, there is very little chance that another player, apart from Ronaldos or Mess, will win the prize, with Brazilian Neymar perhaps the only person close to duet. So Maradona did not agree with Cristiano Ronaldo's claim that he was the best ever, while noting football was the hardest of his days: Best “? For me... From what I saw from them, Alfredo Di Stéfano, Cruyff... and Messy, but it could be Cristiano. What does the Mess lack to be Maradona? It cannot be bought, it's inside you and it comes as standard. Messy won't be able to lower 20 players, talk to them and motivate them, just like me. Ronaldo? He's great. I like his definition. Another thing I like about Cristiano Ronaldon is that when the team needs him, he gives everything. There hasn't been many players since Cruyff with that quality”.
