But the great Portuguese is still not needed by the top clubs in Europe.
These are tough times for Cristiano Ronaldo. For the first time in his career, he does not know what the future holds for him. At 37, one of the best players in the world faced the same problem as Artyom Dzyuba: nobody needs him.
However, there is news that will surely please the Portuguese. The long-standing dispute about who is still better – Messi or Ronaldo – is finally resolved. And allowed in favor of the Manchester United forward.
Krish’s superiority has been scientifically proven!
Where to go?
It has long been rumored that Ronaldo has become disillusioned with United and wants to leave the club. However, the coach of the Red Devils, Erik ten Haag, is confident that Krish is able to fit into his plans.
– I think Cristiano can become part of our system. He has proven everything to everyone. He is a top player and, of course, will be useful to us. A team is built around such players. We are not going to sell it, — quotes the words of the Dutch specialist portal Goal.com.
Perhaps after such words, Cristiano will have a desire to stay at United. Moreover, other European top clubs are not very eager to get an age-old super-forward. There are enough various gossips: Barcelona, PSG, Atlético… But all this, alas, is ordinary talk that accompanies any transfer window.
On the other hand, you never know how life will turn out. Nobody needs Ronaldo today, and tomorrow, you see, he is already signing a contract with a new club. So the famous British TV presenter Piers Morgan, who regularly boasts of his friendship with Cristiano, is convinced that the Portuguese will no longer play for United.
“We’ve been talking a lot lately. It is very unlikely that Ronaldo will play for Manchester United again. I think he outgrew this club. I can imagine the public will be surprised by his next transition,” Morgan told talkSPORT.
Officially the best
The fateful decision about his future Ronaldo will have to make against the backdrop of very good news. Cristiano was recognized as the best player of all time – and this is not just an allegation of another football observer. Thanks to Oxford University Mathematics PhD Tom Crawford, we now know that Ronaldo is officially better than Messi.
The scientist has developed an algorithm that allows you to display the rating of the strongest football players in history. 7 criteria were used to compile the list:
- Club goals
- Club titles
- International goals
- International titles
- Number of Golden Balls
- Availability of other individual awards
- The number of seasons with the highest performance (in other words, the stability of performances)
As a result, Ronaldo became the first, Messi took the second place, and Pele closed the top three. It is curious that of the current players, no one else got into the rating, except for the Portuguese and the Argentinean. The top 10 greatest football players of all time, compiled by the professor, mainly consists of players who shone in the 20th century – such as Ferenc Puskas, Marco van Basten, Johan Cruyff and Diego Maradona.
Of course, even such an objective study will not stop the controversy. There will always be those who will say that Messi is more talented, and Ronaldo is just a machine. And this will also have its own truth. In addition, a lot depends on the method. For example, the publication Goal recently made an attempt to compare Cristiano and Leo through such an indicator as the rating in the FIFA video game. Do not rush to laugh: the game developers do not take the numbers out of their heads. They conduct the deepest research, analyze big data and strive for the maximum breadth of approach. Even football scouts are not shy about using this data.
Goal journalists compared the ratings of Messi and Ronaldo throughout history and found out that Krish is a little better. However, if you look from 2010, Leo will have the advantage. So everything is still extremely ambiguous, and it looks like Messi and Ronaldo will be argued in the same way as the existence of the afterlife – until the end of time.
