THE CONFIDENCE OF CRISTIANO RONALDO Ronaldo's Self-Confidence: As someone who has always believed in himself, Cristiano Ronaldo, a five-time Ballon d’Or winner, proudly declares himself as the greatest player of all time. He thinks he is more skilled than other soccer legends like Lionel Messi, Pele, and Diego Maradona. Ronaldo's Achievements: Ronaldo has the stats to back up his claims, with numerous major awards and records to his credit. However, some people criticize him for praising himself so highly. His former teammate, Ferdinand, doesn't understand why anyone would doubt Ronaldo. Support from Zlatan Ibrahimovic: Ferdinand points out that when Zlatan Ibrahimovic makes bold statements, people praise him for his confidence and personality. But when Ronaldo does the same, they call him arrogant. Ferdinand believes that Ronaldo deserves to speak highly of himself, especially considering his incredible goal-scoring record for the past 18 years. Ronaldo's Career Highlights: During his time at Manchester United, Ronaldo won Premier League and Champions League titles, as well as his first Ballon d’Or award. He is now the all-time leading scorer for Real Madrid, a Serie A champion with Juventus, and still performing at a high level at 40 years old with Saudi Pro League team Al-Nassr.
