Its crazy how much people already forgot his legacy just because they are too busy comparing him with others. Cr7 for me is the best of all time, as a footballer, not as how many records, titles he has. Messi is another goat for sure, but for me slightly under because for me the " clutch " factor make the difference. Too bad both of them are far from what it used to be , and even more sad to thing that we will never have 2 players of the same caliber in the same era. Football is beautiful, but was even more amazing with both on the pitch.

I think many people confuse prime with peak , Ronaldo's prime imo was from 2007 - 2019 , peaking during his noodle hair period in 2017 (i think he's peak was 2014 - 2015 imo)

[@Coach-rq6jx]

And I know exactly where that peak is: it's that first goal in the UCL final vs Juventus. Receives the ball from cutback, first time shot, sidefoots it into the bottom corner with strength, celebrates by saying "I'm here, calma" then doing his iconic Siuu celebration. One chance, Bang. When someone asks me to define Ronaldo, it's this moment right here.

[@MSE360]

@@Coach-rq6jx For me its he's 2 goals vs Osasuna in 2014 , the second especially is an amazing goal , and honestly one of his greatest

[@ans7033]

Real ones know that Ronaldo's absolute peak was from 2012-2014 That was the best Ronaldo out of any of his primes. He had everything, Speed, Physicality, Skills, Dribbling, Passing, Vision, Freekicks, Goal Scoring and even tracked back and defended when his team needed him to.

@@blaze9552 If we go by International goals then Lukau and Lewandowski have better International career than Pele and Maradona. It's not just the number of goals that matters , where did they score those goals is what matters. Everyone knows how easy it is for top players of Europe to score against those terrible European countries in qualifiers. Ronaldo only had one great game in his entire career in WC (against Spain). He was never named best player in big competitions such as WC or EURO. Never was capable of reaching a WC final and NEVER scored or assisted in knockout stages of WC. I can name at least 25 football players with better international career than his.
