Ronaldinho hails Reds ace

Barcelona superstar Ronaldinho has hailed Liverpool midfielder Steven Gerrard as one of the world's best.

Although The Reds missed out on Premiership and UEFA Champions League glory this season, their midfield schemer was again in masterful form.

Gerrard's exploits in England have not gone unnoticed and while Ronaldinho concedes Cristiano Ronaldo is right up there he believes it is the Liverpool man who sits firmly on top of the talent tree.

"Cristiano is a great player. But Steven Gerrard is, for me, one of the very best in the world," he told Zoo magazine.

"For the job he performs, for me, he is one of the greatest."

Meanwhile, Ronaldinho has not given up winning the Liga title with Barcelona despite a disastrous set of results at the weekend.

Raul Tamudo held Barca to a late home draw while Real Madrid claimed a last-gasp point at Real Zaragoza to retain their advantage of the top of the table.

"We had the chance to be very well placed and we've let important points slip away, but we're still fighting," he concluded.
