Casemiro's surprising comparison of Ronaldo and Bale

Casemiro surprised many by claiming that Gareth Bale was the most complete player he had ever played alongside at Real Madrid.

Ronaldo and Bale once formed a formidable wing partnership for Real Madrid.

In a conversation with Rio Ferdinand on his personal YouTube channel, Casemiro spent a lot of time reminiscing about his golden era with Real Madrid. The Brazilian midfielder talked about the legendary "BBC" trio (Bale, Benzema, Cristiano Ronaldo), the pressure at the Bernabeu, and the classic clashes with Barcelona.

What caught the fans' attention the most was Casemiro's comment about Gareth Bale. According to the former Real Madrid midfielder, Bale possesses a more complete skill set than Ronaldo.

"Cristiano is the best player, from another world . But if we're talking about all-around ability, Bale is number one. He has speed, strength, goalscoring ability, defensive contributions, is good at heading, and is also excellent at free kicks," Casemiro shared.

Nevertheless, Casemiro still holds Ronaldo in high regard. He believes that the most frightening thing about Ronaldo is his seemingly limitless ambition to score goals.

"Even against smaller teams like Levante, Cristiano still plays with the mindset of having to score. He's always hungry for goals," added the Manchester United midfielder.

Casemiro admitted Lionel Messi is the most difficult opponent he has ever faced in his career. The Brazilian midfielder believes it is almost impossible to mark the Argentinian superstar alone, as Messi is always capable of making a difference with just a few touches of the ball.

The former Real Madrid midfielder recalled many matches where Barcelona didn't play particularly well, but Messi still single-handedly decided the outcome. According to Casemiro, that's what makes Real Madrid players always wary when facing their arch-rivals.

In addition, Casemiro also shared his thoughts on the legendary midfield trio of Real Madrid alongside Luka Modric and Toni Kroos. The Brazilian international stated that their natural chemistry was key to their dominance in European football for many years.
