“He get it wrong twice”, “Zero ball knowledge” - Fans react as Harry Maguire chooses ex-Chelsea star ahead of Ronaldinho while building legends XI

Fans reacted as Manchester United centre-back Harry Maguire included former Chelsea attacker Eden Hazard instead of Ronaldinho in his all-time legends XI.

The England international made choices between two players for all 11 positions. However, some of his choices raised eyebrows, attracting attention from fans on social media.

Here's how Maguire's interaction went, as posted by GOAL on Instagram:

"Ronaldo Nazario or Thierry Henry: Ronaldo"

"Samuel Eto'o or Zlatan: Zlatan"

"Robben or Bale: Bale"

"Hazard or Ronaldinho: Hazard. I've seen more of Hazard play."

"Xavi or Pirlo: Xavi"

"Zidane or Gerrard: Zidane"

"Roberto Carlos or Maldini: Maldini"

"Cafu or Phillip Lahm: Cafu"

"Gerard Pique or Rio Ferdinand: Ferdinand"

"Alessandro Nesta or Fabio Cannavaro: Nesta"

"Iker Casillas or Gigi Buffon? Buffon"

One fan said on the Instagram post:

"Zero ball knowledge brother"

Another chimed in:

"He get it wrong twice by picking Hazard over Ronaldinho and bale over Robben."

There were similar reactions from other fans:

"Did he say he saw more of hazard than ronaldinho? So meaning he will choose hazard over Pele and Maradona since he didn't see or watch more of them," one said.

Another said:

"Dude is lucky he never met Ronaldinho while playing .. quickly will he regret choosing Hazard over him .. I truly wonder how he will survive facing Ronaldinho"

A third fan posted:

"Robben >>>>>> Bale"

One more fan commented:

"Harry Maguire cements his GOAT status with his Ball Knowledge"

Magure missed Euro 2024 last summer because of injury, with his England side losing 2-1 to Spain in the final in Berlin.

How did Ronaldinho fare against Chelsea?

Ronaldinho is widely regarded as one of the best players of all time, winning big titles galore with club and country. The 2002 FIFA World Cup winner with Brazil won the UEFA Champions League with Barcelona four years later in a successful stint.

The now retired Brazilian crossed paths six times with Chelsea, scoring thrice and assisting once, with his team winning, drawing and losing twice apiece. All six appearances and four goal contributions came while he was at Barca in the 2000s.

Two of those goals came in a 4-2 defeat to Chelsea in the 2004-05 UEFA Champions League away. The other goal came in a 1-1 home draw with the Blues the next season in the same competition, with Ronaldinho assisting in Barca's 2-1 away win as they went on to win the Champions League.
