"I am the best in history. The numbers prove it," Cristiano Ronaldo said in an interview with Spanish TV channel La Sexta. The Portuguese superstar has never been afraid to praise himself. This is not the first time Ronaldo has affirmed that he is the best player of all time.
The 39-year-old striker is proud to be the player with the most goals in history (only counting official matches). This is an accepted statistic. The striker, who has won the Champions League five times, is the first player to surpass the 900-goal mark in his career. He is still increasing his scoring record while playing at the age of 39.
Ronaldo added: "I am the greatest goalscorer in history. Even though I am not left-footed, I am still in the top 10 players who have scored the most goals with my left foot. Those are the numbers. I am the most complete player who has ever appeared. I am good at heading, I am good at free kicks, I am fast, strong and jump high. I have not seen anyone better than me."
In the interview, Cristiano Ronaldo also said that the way he thinks about his career and matches has changed a lot compared to before. Having achieved the greatest achievements in history, the Portuguese superstar no longer cares much about criticism or criticism.
"Those are people who don't understand me, people who are jealous. I live with people who love me and others too. The anger of losing has decreased. I can't go home and be sad with my family. It was different before. In Madrid, if I missed a penalty, I would lock myself in my room, not have dinner and question myself," Ronaldo shared.
However, the desire to win every time he steps on the field has never changed in Cristiano Ronaldo. The 39-year-old football legend said he still likes to compete like when he was a child. Ronaldo was once nicknamed "crybaby" by his friends because he often cried and got angry when he lost. Now he is no longer burdened by failure, but his competitive nature and love of conquering challenges is still there.
"Something has to happen to you to appreciate what you have. I am a competitive person, so much so that sometimes I forget what I have achieved. If there was someone else in this position, they would have left football 10 years ago. I am different," Ronaldo added.
