Wide Forwards: Cristiano Ronaldo and Eden Hazard

He may not have reached the incredible personal highs that he would go onto with Real Madrid during his time at Manchester United, but it’s simply impossible to leave the great Cristiano Ronaldo out of this combined side.
Arguably the greatest player to ever lace up a pair of boots, the Portuguese forward joined the Red Devils in the summer of 2003, becoming the most expensive teenager in English football history following his £12.24m move from Sporting Lisbon.
Initially recognised as a showboating winger, Ronaldo would display glances of his future greatness in his early years with United, helping them to win the FA Cup in his first season, but it was in 2006-07 that he really began to shine, breaking the 20 goal mark for the first time.
Nothing could’ve prepared fans for his incredible output in 2007-08, though; CR7 scored a scarcely believable 42 goals in 49 games as United won both the Premier League and Champions League. The Portuguese stayed for one further season before departing for Real Madrid having won 7 major trophies at Old Trafford, and while his longevity may not stand out, he remains a club legend for his incredible performances.

Another great player who eventually departed for Real Madrid, Chelsea’s Belgian wizard Eden Hazard starred at Stamford Bridge for 7 seasons and was practically an ever-present throughout that period. Arguably Chelsea’s best player during his time there, Hazard tormented opponents from a wide position, and was named as the Premier League’s Player of the Season in 2014-15 when he helped the Blues to the Premier League title.
Always popular with fans of the Blues, during their struggles in 2017-18 and 2018-19 at times it appeared that the Belgian was the only Chelsea player reaching anything close to an expected level, and in his last campaign, in particular, he carried his side, scoring a total of 16 league goals and registering 15 assists – meaning he was responsible for almost half of the Blues’ total.
By the time he departed for the Bernabeu in the summer of 2019, Hazard had made over 350 appearances for Chelsea, scoring 110 goals and helping them to 2 Premier League titles, 1 FA Cup and two Europa Leagues.
