2012 World Cup hero David Villa has picked former Chelsea flop Fernando Torres over Cristiano Ronaldo as a better player.
He also picked former Barcelona teammate Lionel Messi as the greatest player of all time.
It is not unexpected that the Villa believes Torres was a better player than Ronaldo, given that he played with the former Liverpool star 55 times in all competitions.
