Legendary Brazilian footballer Ronaldo compared his generation of players to the current one. According to the former striker, modern stars have a significant advantage. "They eat well and sleep a lot. In contrast, we used to do the opposite, just think about how many women each of us had. We just needed to have the same mentality. Lionel Messi is unique, unstoppable, and a technical player who wants to score in every match. Neymar is another top-level footballer. I hope he wins something with the Brazilian national team, but of course, he will face criticism for his private life. So, the current generation of players is better than ours beyond doubt," said Ronaldo. Who does he think is the best striker in the world? "That's Karim Benzema. There is no doubt. Robert Lewandowski follows him. Erling Haaland will one day lead the list, but now he falls behind the mentioned ones. Of course, Kylian Mbappe is very talented. I read that he signed a contract with Real guaranteeing 50 million euros per year. We were simply born at the wrong time."
