The big names in football always like to throw out some controversial remarks, no, Capello is here again. He said that in football, only Pele, Maradona and Messi are truly talented players. And Cristiano Ronaldo? In his opinion, it just made a lot of players improve their rankings. To be honest, as soon as this point of view came out, it was like throwing a bomb in the crowd of fans, and the explosions came one after another.
Capello's era was indeed the world of Pele and Maradona, and these two great figures did leave a strong mark on football history. But the thing is, it's 2024, times are changing, and the abilities and skills of the players are developing at a rapid pace. Ronaldo and Messi, as the contemporary duo, have long surpassed their predecessors in their achievements. In this way, the older generation of fans may want to jump out against it, but the younger fans should all raise their hands in favor.
Let's talk about Cristiano Ronaldo. Capello said he wasn't a genius, which left me scratching my head a bit. Take a look at Cristiano Ronaldo's room of honour, European Cup winners, Champions League winners, league winners, Golden Boot awards, Ballon d'Or ...... The list goes on. Doesn't such an achievement prove his genius? Moreover, his career is like an inspirational novel, from a small-town teenager in Portugal to a superstar in world football, along the way, Ronaldo has forged his own legend with sweat and hard work.
Some people say that Ronaldo can't pass, he doesn't dribble the ball anymore, he has degraded. Is that really the case? In fact, Ronaldo has evolved. He doesn't need to be as good as he was when he was younger, because he knows that maximizing his strengths is key. Running without the ball, accurate tackling, lethal shots, these are the current Cristiano Ronaldo. He uses his wisdom and experience to be everywhere on the field, making opponents unguardable.
As for Messi, the Argentine little flea, is also a legend on the pitch. His technique with his feet and his vision of the pitch are unmatched, and his presence is an art in itself. Some people want Messi to leave Barcelona and go to other leagues to prove himself, but for Messi, he has a deep affection for Barcelona, and he stays here, not because of timidity, but because of loyalty. Messi's achievements at Barcelona have long proven his strength and value.
Speaking of which, we have to mention Pele and Maradona. These two superstars in the history of football have indeed made a huge contribution to the development of football. Their talent and skill were unparalleled in their time. But times are changing, and so is football. Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi, as representatives of a new era, have ruled the era in their own way. Capello may consider moving the two old-timers a little bit to make room for Messi and Ronaldo in the middle.
If Pele and Maradona are ancient gods, then Messi and Ronaldo are contemporary myths. With their performance, they proved to the world what is a genius and what a legend is. Cristiano Ronaldo was able to lead the team to win everything, while Messi conquered countless fans with his skills and intelligence. Their presence is a blessing for the fans of our time.
Now the question is, there are only three geniuses in Capello's mouth, Pele, Maradona and Messi, but should we count Ronaldo as well? Perhaps everyone has their own answer to this question. But no matter what the answer is, Ronaldo and Messi are irreplaceable legends in our hearts. Their presence has made football in this era more exciting and memorable.
Okay, fans, let's talk about it. Do you think Ronaldo can be called a genius? Who is stronger he or Messi? Are Pele and Maradona really unbeatable? Feel free to leave your thoughts in the comments section and talk about these two superstars in football.
Finally, I have to sigh that it is really a blessing to be able to witness the era of Ronaldo and Messi. Hopefully they can continue to create miracles on the pitch and bring us more wonderful moments. Isn't that the charm of football? Let's continue to look forward to and continue to enjoy this golden age that belongs to Messi and Ronaldo!
