ronaldo lovers take note - ronaldo is a disgrace

[ronaldo07]

Peter Cech isnt a wold class player, he dont score regulary ..
if that make sense to u

[Le King]

hw can he b over-rated when hes gonna win world player of the yr???

[Hawkesy]

Clearly the judges are the people over rating him then.

What about the people calling him the best ever, better than best etc.. He's not fit to lace George Best's boots.

[Zakynthos]

is ronaldo a disgrace? are you sure???

the guy has scored 38 goals in all competitions, do you understand?

this is from a wide player, a guy who plays on the right hand side of MIDFIELD

if you are going to compare him to Lionel Messi then fair enough olympiakos you have a point. Only messi is better, but otherwise the skill level this guy has, sadly the whole greek national team doesnt have

and I know what you will say that greece defeated portugal back in 2004 but it was ronaldo that was crying that day when portugal lost, the other portugese players couldnt give two fucks that they lost

ronaldo is not a disgrace

Goal scoring yes, he's good but a disgrace to football. he most certainly is. Him and Drogba are the worst for it in the English league. Thank god that Robben has gone.

As for him being a midfielder. Midfielders track back, midfielders track back etc.. He's a winger at best.

my understanding is that man united play a 442 system, so from my understanding then ronaldo is a MIDFIELDER, a winger plays further up the field like in a 433 system which barcelona play and no one else

so at man united he is a midfielder, you might also want to theck the stats of how much ground this guy really covers, it is quite alot

When was the last time you saw Ronaldo track back with his man and make a tackle. He's a good winger though, but don't belittle the hard work midfielders do, by calling him one.

[Thryle 7]

as a man utd support i wouldn't call him a midfielder, he is a winger.

[ronaldo07]

maybe it's part of fergie tactic - save his energy for attacking, and let the defending works to our great back 4 ... and hey, it really works .. we score the most in EPL, and we conceded the least in EPL .. thx ..

[Hawkesy]

as a man utd support i wouldn't call him a midfielder, he is a whinger.

I agree!

lol you made me look for a minute there but i knew what i had posted

[Le King]

gotta love ronaldo, he gets more attention on here then the rest of the epl teams/players
jst adding 2 his popularity of the worlds best player

VIVA RONALDO!!

[delfino_1936]

its almost an offence to real midfielders to call Ronaldo a midfielder.

he can't defend and he doesn't track back.

For me he is an Attacking Winger.

Man United Do Not play a 442 and havent on a regular basis since cantona, bruce and co. even going back to the days of the fab four they play a 4-2-2-2 this consists of:

Defence - Right Back, Right Centre Back, Left Centre Back, Left Back
Midfield - Right Centre Midfield, Left Centre Midfield
Attacking midfielders - Left Wing, Right Wing, Attacking Central Midfielder (Centre Forward)
Forwrds - Striker

The ACM was replaced with a secondary striker during the Cole and Yorke era etc.

with all due respect, I have watched many of man utds games in the last two years on foxtel and they do NOT play a 4-2-4 system like you think. If you think that giggs stays near the attacking corner flag when man utd go on the attack then you are gravely mistaken.

[pannafc]

hahahaha every1 that bags ronaldo is a joke. if im not mistakin he is the hughsest scorin player in the epl . maybe i sense a little bit of jealousy here. just think if he was playing for your favourite team and scored that many goals in midfeild i bet u wud love him ey get ova urselfs use r all just jelous cause he s*its all ova ur teams RONALDO IS A KING

:?

That looks like 4-5-1 to me or at most a 4-2-3-1. Where do you get 4-4-2 from?

[Jester2]

Oh my god??? I can't believe what I am reading.

There is not one player in whole of the EPL that would not give his left nut to have half the talent of Ronaldo – you only have to listen to how the other top 10 players in the world talk about him to know that he is head and shoulders the best player in the premiership today.

No I don't go for Man Utd - but I will watch them to watch them because of the talent on show. He is a winging, whining, diving so and so – but f*%k me, give him the ball and he is spectacular!

Anyone here put their hands on their hearts and say they can do this???

Alan Stubbs and Neil Harris did - they're still not as good.

A couple of people need to read the thread a little instead of hopping aboard the "ZOMG lets come to the defense of Ronaldo!" train. Noone can deny the kid has talent, it's how he uses that talent and his conduct that the thread is about. Nobody said he didn't have skill.

[Le King]

he uses his talent very well, and the PFA awards proves this, most consistant

I completely agree. C. Ronaldo is a great player but I wouldn't call him a "Champion" due to the way he conducts himself on the pitch with excessive diving and more importantly his berating of referee's and the general arrogance in the way he carries himself. For example, when Kaka' won FIFA Player of the year, you should see the look upon his face towards Ricky. These qualities don't necessarily endear him to footballer followers who don't support Manchester United. Kaka', Messi, Torres (even Federer) are admired not only for their ability but are respected for the way they conduct themselves.

it is a disgrace to question ronaldo's talent

1. he is runner up to FIFA player of year alongside Messi
2. he has just won the PFA players player of the year in England

what more can the man do??

if he is always diving then why are refs not handing out yellow cards to him? hey?

I suppose there are better honest players in the superleague in SA? god forbid we critise the players in the super, premier or state league?? god forbid ..!
