In an interview with Sports illustrated, he said: 'The best opponent of my career? I've played against many, many good players, so I don't know who to keep.


 


 


'But I would say Ronaldo, 'El Fenomeno'. Why? Because he was my idol and because, as a football player, he was complete.


'There will never, in my view, be a better player than him.'

French striker Thierry Henry has praised the impact Brazilian strikers have had on the centre forward position.


Speaking to American magazine, The Blizzard, Henry was asked about his football idols and there were three main players that he didn't take long to think of.


"Ronaldo did things we had never seen before. He, Romario and Weah (the Liberian striker) have reinvented the centre forward position. They were the first to emerge from the surface to get the ball in midfield, to move to the sides, to attract and confuse defenders with their movements, accelerations and dribbles.
