"He has scored something like 47,000 goals – crazy numbers."Why should we compare? At the time of Pele nobody compared Pele to other players and asked, 'Is he as good as him?' Now we have Lionel Messi and Ronaldo, who have dominated football for a few years.  "Messi and Ronaldo are, in the final moment, very often in the right position to score a goal – and that's the most difficult thing to do in the world."That's why they are where they are. The Ballon d’Or is always between them. It’s deserved. When they stop playing football we’ll miss them, 100 per cent. I don't have to make these kind of stories about Salah and Ronaldo. "It's not about having the better individual. Usually, it's about playing the better football – and, for that, you need all the other players as well." Ronaldo and Madrid closed out their La Liga campaign on Saturday by surrendering a two-goal lead and falling to a 2-2 draw against Villarreal .  Despite the draw, Madrid boss  Zinedine Zidane said the two-time reigning Champions League holders are ready for their European showdown .</blockquote>
