Cristiano Ronaldo thought ex-Chelsea player who ended up in prison was better than him
Manchester United hero Cristiano Ronaldo is rightly hailed as one of the greatest footballers to have ever graced the planet.But when the future five-time Ballon d'Or winner made the switch to Old Trafford in 2003, he was quick to heap praise on another that would be deemed Sporting Lisbon's finest academy graduate. "If you think I'm good just wait until you see Fábio Paím," Ronaldo said, shortly after his £12.25million arrival.Now aged 37, Ronaldo has claimed League titles in England, Italy and Spain, bagged the international goal-scoring record and lifted the Champions League trophy on four separate occasions.
