Ronaldo

Former Chelsea defender William Gallas has had his say on Cristiano Ronaldo's future and whether or not a move to Stamford Bridge would work out.

William Gallas has urged his former club Chelsea to sign Cristiano Ronaldo on a six-month deal as he continues to look for a new team.

"Now, it will be more difficult as he has a connection with Liverpool. Bellingham is a perfect player for Chelsea and they should have signed him earlier. He is quick and good, technically, and has assisted the likes of [Olivier] Giroud. They need a midfielder who is tall, strong and can go box to box. If he goes to Chelsea, it should only be until the end of the season but I think he could do a good job there." Bellingham is one of the most in-demand players in world football right now. "I don't know if he will suit the Premier League as defenders are stronger and do not give you as much space.

Peterside Idah has hailed Cristiano Ronaldo's football exploits, maintaining that the Portuguese man has earned his rights in the game.

I say Ronaldo because he is a GOAT on his own; one of the greatest in the world,” he said on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily. Messi has won seven Ballon d’Or. The fans did and it has been good for football in the last ten years.

The 61-year-old Matthaus who has played in 5 world cups also took potshots against Germany's football team in the world cup. Particularly, the management.

I hope he performs on the pitch and I believe he will. Cristiano Ronaldo had this attitude 10 years ago, but the following game he would score a hat trick, and he was 27 – everyone would forgive him. “Ronaldo is of course a big failure of the World Cup, the opposite of Messi. “He has to do his talking on the pitch.

It’s like in life, some like blondes, some like brunettes.

SIR: The last 14 years have experienced the rise of football duo (Messi and Ronaldo) whose accomplishments might be doubted by generations to come.

And what was left for those of us queueing behind my GOAT was to pray that the other GOAT should lose it. Life is easier when we hold onto that popular line in the song written by the team of Jay Livingston and Ray Evans that was first published in 1955: “Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be, Will Be)”. Why do we have to be rivals when we can be riders? It was particularly spectacular because it was the last chance for the GOATs to establish who the real GOAT is. The undisputable is the fact that the two individuals in question are great; both are legitimately entitled to the GOAT title (Greatest of All Time). But for the record, I am Ronaldo’s fan.

As the era of Messi and Ronaldo gradually evolves to an end, nature’s continuity blesses us with another bright star to look forward to, Kyllian Mbappe, a very vibrant and compelling force that could pass as the hybrid of Messi and Ronaldo. Some of his words conjure the image of a mythical figure: But unlike Ronaldo and Messi who are contemporaries, Pele and Maradona played at different points in time which arguably renders the comparison of the latter less valid or relevant than the former. Some also base their assessment of the two footballers on markers beyond the field of play. Consequently, the distant posterity of each of the players shall depend more on story-tellers than on the actual reality. Therefore, the side of the debate one favours may depend on one’s personal values, philosophy or experience.
