Ronaldo - this is a trademark name in football. Whether it is Cristiano Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, or Ronaldo Luis Nazario de Lima, there is greatness associated with the name 'Ronaldo.' Very few people, especially footballers, are able to single out one specific Ronaldo is who is the best of the trio.
But then, there is one footballer who does not blink when it comes to making such tough decisions and his name is Zlatan Ibrahimovic, the self-proclaimed god of Manchester. When told to choose the best of the Ronaldo trio, the Swede told ESPN Brasil:
"I think Ronaldo, Il Fenomeno, was the best.''
"For me, it was an example of what football is. Everything he did something that made you think 'wow'. The way he dribbled and the way he ran.
"Ronaldo was natural, he was born to be what he was. It was not something he trained to become. This type of player is not made, he is born. He is unique.
"We [Ronaldinho and Ibrahimovic] played together at AC Milan, but he did not live the best days as before, but I loved it when we played and he was running with his hair messed up, dribbling fast and when he wanted to, he made others look like kids around him.''
And about Cristiano Ronaldo, Zlatan added:
"As for Cristiano Ronaldo, we did not play together. It is different because it is the result of hard training. It is not natural."
The debate of talent vs hardwork has stuck on the lips of many pro and anti Ronaldo fans, often used when differenciating between the Portugal star and his Argentina counterpart Lionel Messi. While it is believed that CR7 is more hardworking than talented, Leo is often described as being more talented than hardworking.
That explains why La Pulga (pictured below) made the decision to retire from international football last summer when Argentina were knocked out of the Copa America Centenario for the second time in a row by rivals Chile.
At around the same time, CR7 (pictured below) defied all odds, including a knee injury at the final of the European Championship, to win the title for the first time with Portugal. The debate about talent vs hardwork is not about to go away anytime soon and Zlatan's recent revelations are bound to add more fuel to the already-burning fire..jpg)
