The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Porto-c39186 and Deportivo la Coruna custodian claimed that Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the finest attackers to grace the beautiful game.
Nuno became the latest entrant on the Lionel Messi-http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 ace.
The former Deportivo star hailed Ronaldo as the most complete player of all time, and rated him above the likes of Pele, Alfredo di Stefano and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Diego-Maradona-c11160, which automatically makes him better than El Pulga.
Nuno highlighted the attributes of the former Manchester United player and argued that no one before him has had the same quality. He pointed out his fast pace, perfect physical traits and ability to score in a variety of ways to support his argument.
"Messi is a great player, but Cristiano is absolutely tremendous. He is the best in the world because he's the most complete player," http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nuno-c28232 was quoted on Madrid based Spanish sports daily, AS.
"He is fast, powerful, scores goals, has so much quality and always helps his team out defensively if needed. He is the perfect 10. I have never seen such a perfect football machine.”
"Football has changed a lot, and I doubt that players such as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-c9622 does now with that intensity."
Nuno shares the same sentiments as Real Madrid boss, Jose Mourinho, who praised the 95 million Euros signing after their La Liga triumph. The Special One was in awe of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ronaldo-c31734’s tremendous record in all competitions that saw him finish amongst a pile of
goals and assists.
The 27-year-old finished the 2011/12 season with 60 strikes hitting the back of the net in 55 outings, an improvement of 7 from his figures of the previous campaign. The 2010/11 Pichichi trophy winner finished his La Liga campaign with an outstanding tally
of 46 goals, 4 behind Messi’s total for the season.
The heroics of the duo during the course of the season has set up a enticing Ballon d’Or race, with the odds favouring the Argentine to collect his fourth successive award.
