"It was funny when you were with Ronaldo the Brazilian, and he'd told you: 'Today I'm going to nutmeg you twice'. He said it, and he did it. Because if you say that and you don't do it, everyone makes fun of you," said Zidane.
Parker asked him whether 'Ronie' was the most skilled player he played with based on what he has said in other interviews:
"Yes, by far, I would put him everywhere on the pitch if you want," responded Zidane.
