Manchester City fans love comments from Ruben Dias, who said he is the best Portuguese defender of all time.

A number of Manchester City fans are delighted with comments from defender Ruben Dias.

The Citizens completed the signing of the 24-year-old from Benfica last summer for the fee of £65m (BBC) and he has proven to be an outstanding capture for Pep Guardiola.

So far this season, he has made 47 appearances in all competitions for the club (Transfermarkt) and has been a rock at the heart of the back four. Such has been the level of his performances that he has even been tipped to be named the Premier League's Player of the Season.

It seems that the £63m-valued centre-back (Transfermarkt) also doesn't lack any confidence in himself, either. During a recent interview, he was asked for his view as to who is the best ever Portuguese defender. With little hesitation, he mentioned himself, even above the likes of the decorated Ricardo Carvalho.

Dias' comments were shared on Twitter by @City_Chief and they attracted plenty of attention from the club's supporters. These took to the social media platform to revel in the 24-year-old's self-affirmation.
