#3 Gerard Pique
Gerard Pique has had the honor of playing with/against both the five-time Ballon d’Or champs.
The Spanish defender is presently playing close by Messi at Barcelona, yet he likewise had the delight to play with Ronaldo at Manchester United for a long time.
The Barcelona man has commended both the footballers and considered them to be ‘two of the best players’ to ever step on the football pitch.
Upon asking on who was the best between the two, Pique said:
“I think that they are both amazing. We are talking about two of the best players, not just in the world but the history of this sport.
I always said that Messi has some talent that no one has. I mean, he has the ball and his speed controlling the ball. The ball doesn’t go two metres far from his foot, it’s always there. It’s impossible to catch him, this talent I didn’t see from anyone.
He further added: [Ronaldo] is such a different player, they are very different. He is tall, strong, he’s really complete. He can do anything. He can do goals with the head, free-kicks, penalties, take one on one.
But for me it’s like Messi is not human but [Ronaldo] is the best of the humans.”
