Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo believes that La Liga is the best football league in the world.
Speaking on the occasion of being awarded Best Player at the annual Globe Soccer convention in Dubai on Wednesday, the 26-year-old maintained that his experience in the Premier League helped him mould his game but feels that he now plays in a superior domestic league.
"When I was at Manchester United, I learned the basic rules of football, especially the discipline of tackling, but La Liga is the best in the world because it is based on players' skills and technique," said Ronaldo.
The Portugal international has enjoyed a fine individual season for Real Madrid thus far, scoring 25 goals in 23 appearances for the Blancos.
