Only one season shared Cristiano Ronaldo and Rafael van der Vaart. Despite having a good squad in the 2009/10 version of Real Madrid, they did not win any titles under the technical direction of Manuel Pellegrini.
This Tuesday, the former midfielder of the Dutch National Team spoke with Deportes Ziggo and there surprised by stating that he had more quality than the current Ballon d'Or and FIFA The Best.
"Cristiano Ronaldo is a phenomenon. When I trained with him, I was amazed at his athletic ability, but I must say that I have better technique than him," said Van der Vaart.
Likewise, the former Hamburg and Betis player praised 'CR7' for his physical condition in all seasons. "You realize that he is incredible physically," he added.
