Edwin van der Sar recently praised former Manchester United teammate Cristiano Ronaldo

During his time at Manchester United, Edwin van der Sar shared the pitch 167 times with Cristiano Ronaldo. They won a UEFA Champions League and FIFA Club World among others.

Van der Sar recently made an appearance on the High Performance Podcast. He said how Ronaldo used to spend time with his kids during their time together as teammates:

"Cristiano is a good guy. A lot of people have a really different opinion about him. But I found him funny in the dressing room. If I brought my kids, he would always play with them. I think what he did is incredible."

Much like Ronaldo, Van der Sar was a key part of the Red Devils under Sir Alex Ferguson. The goalkeeper, though, is suffering from serious health issues.
