Paolo Maldini names the three greatest players he's ever seen, completely ignores Ronaldo

"The three greatest players I saw in my career were Messi, Maradona and him [Ronaldo Nazario]," Paolo Maldini has said in the fresh documentary about Ronaldo Nazario, O Fenomeno.

The AC Milan legend has actually ignored Cristiano Ronaldo here. He faced the Portuguese twice in the 2004/05 season – Milan won both times, so maybe Maldini wasn't really impressed with the 20-year-old at the time!

Leo Messi, in turn, hadn't ever played against Paolo Maldini. When a reporter once remarked that the Argentine was 'lucky' not to do it, Maldini replied: "No, no, I was lucky. Thank god he was injured."

Interesting choice by Maldini.
