Is Cristiano Ronaldo better than George Best?

There's seems to be no stopping the new hero of Manchester United. Two more sensational goals last night has Sportingo's Gerry Horsfield wondering if the Portuguese winker is now better than Bestie.

    After his latest sensational double strike against Portsmouth, the question has got to be asked. Is Cristiano Ronaldo now a better player than the legendary George Best?

    'While Best’s career ended nearly a quarter of a century ago, Ronaldo is probably three or four years short of his prime. How much better he could become makes the mind boggle'


    I’m not a Manchester United fan…but I do appreciate football genius. And there’s no longer any doubt that the Portuguese maestro is just that. A genius.

    His 25-yard free-kick that put United 2-0 ahead last night was truly special. I never played the game professionally so I can’t comment on the technique itself. All I know is that Sky Sports studio guests Jamie Redknapp and Graeme Souness, both highly-rated former players, were positively purring about it.

    ''It was as good a free kick as I've ever seen in the Premier League,'' gasped Redknapp. ''It was unsaveable.'' And Souness echoed: ''I've never seen a free kick taken like that before. It was so special. Unique.''

    Best was a legend and He was unique to his generation,ronaldo will be a better a player than best due his raw pass and eye for goal,but you couldnt find another best in his generation,whilst football today has many talents other than ronaldo

    This is a pointless debate like all debates between the dead and the living and the present and the past.Please grow up and just realise the futility of these sorts of debates.It ultimately comes down to personal prejudices,basic human primative emotions of like and dislike.Any TRUE football lover will have appreciation of both.END OF DEBATE.
