It’s good the headline has changed from Ramos “could be” to Ramos “is” the best center-back of all time.

Since I am watching football I have never seen Any Defender better than Ramos, His consistency, goal scoring ability, His defending skills is something els. I hate this guy when he broke the ankle of Salah in UCL, But it doesn't change my mind that he is the best.
