Joe Hart says he played with someone at Tottenham who was even better than Ronaldinho
Joe Hart has played with some incredible players in his career.
Hart was lucky enough to call the likes of David Silva and Sergio Aguero teammates during his time at Manchester City, while he worked with the likes of Steven Gerrard and Wayne Rooney with England.
Hart also worked with some fantastic players at Tottenham such as Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son.
The former goalkeeper has now transitioned into punditry, and in a video for the BBC, Hart has been ranking some of the greatest players in Champions League history.
Hart ranked the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Toni Kroos high in his list, while he also had some special praise for one of his former Tottenham teammates.

Joe Hart praises Gareth Bale
The 2020/21 season was a strange year due to the impact of coronavirus on the Premier League, and while it may be easy to forget, Hart and Gareth Bale were actually teammates at Tottenham for that season.
Hart worked with Bale at Spurs, and when compiling his list of Champions League greats, the pundit put Bale in seventh place ahead of the likes of Thierry Henry and Ronaldinho.
Bale won five Champions League titles during his time at Real Madrid, scoring in two finals, and it’s fair to say that he’s one of the greatest players to ever play in this competition.
Gareth Bale an all-time great
Ronaldinho may have been a Ballon d’Or winner, but there is an argument to make that Bale’s legacy is greater than the Brazilian’s – at least at club level.
Bale won five Champions Leagues with Real Madrid, while he was also a two-time PFA Player of the Year winner in the Premier League.
Bale was a special player, that’s for sure.
Factor in that Bale also took Wales to a European Championship semi-final, and you have a player who made a massive splash on the world stage.
Bale is undoubtedly one of the greatest to ever play the beautiful game.
