Sir Alex Ferguson theory on Cristiano Ronaldo vs Lionel Messi seen in new light in 2023
Sir Alex Ferguson had the best view of all as Cristiano Ronaldo went from precocious teenager to world’s best under his tutelage.
During his first spell at Manchester United, the Portuguese prodigy won three Premier League titles and a Champions League crown.
In 2008, he was also awarded the Ballon d’Or and recognised as the best player on earth for the first time.
He would split from Ferguson in 2009, joining Real Madrid and embarking on a record-breaking spell in the Spanish capital.
But his move to LaLiga coincided with the rise of his great rival Lionel Messi.
The little magician dominated world football, winning the next four Ballon d’Ors and assuming his place at the top of the game.
