Ronaldo, Luis Figo and Stevie Gerrard are standing before God at
The throne of Heaven.
God looks at them and says; "before granting you a place at my side,
I must first ask you what you believe in."
Addressing Ronaldo first he asks, "what do you believe?"
Ronaldo looks God in the eye and states passionately, "I believe
Football to be the food of life. Nothing else brings such unbridled
Joy to so many people from the slums of Rio to the bright lights of
Madrid. I have devoted my life to bring such joy to people who stood on the
Terraces supporting their club."
God looks up and offers Ronaldo the seat to his left.
He then turns to Luis Figo, "and you, Luis, what do you believe?"
Figo stands tall and proud, "I believe courage, honour and passion
Are the fundamentals to life and I've spent my whole playing career
Providing a living embodiment of these traits."
God, moved by the passion of the speech offers Figo the seat to his
Right.
Finally, he turns to Gerrard "and you, Stevie, what do you believe?"
"I believe" says Gerrard "you're sitting in my seat."
