Ferdinand said: "He [Ronaldo] used to go 'did Beckham score this many goals? Did George Best? Did Eric Cantona?' He used to go crazy."

Continuing the selections, Beckham was chosen ahead of Angel Di Maria, only for Ryan Giggs to knock him off top spot.

The Welshman remained No1 as Ronaldo then dismissed Sergio Ramos, Pepe, Javier Hernandez, Marcelo, Xabi Alonso and Toni Kroos.

Ronaldo admitted it was hard to compare two players in different positions - but he did not think twice about picking Karim Benzema over Giggs.
