Cristiano Ronaldo

[JCB001]

I'm going to projectile vomit after posting this, but-
You're right about pitches and violent tackles,and taking that into account,and being of a vintage whereby I saw him in the flesh numerous times,then,(gags) I hate to say it, but George Best was a superb footballer.

Bucket please!!

So as the saying goes "The truth hurts" :) ....best in my lifetime ...all things considered .....No I am not a Rag

There's nothing wrong in appreciating great talent.
In his prime, Best was a joy to watch. Only the shirt he wore spoiled it. I saw him and Rodney Marsh playing for Fulham a few times, and Best was always light years ahead of everyone on the pitch.
When it comes to players I've seen in the flash, Best is second only to Maradona imo.

And yes, I've still got my Colin Bell 'Better than Best' t-shirt!

 

[Lavinda Past]

Ahh, the transfer window. Brings out the best in all of us.

Much more time to think on here than on the match day forum.
;-)

Outstanding on and off the pitch, he lived the dream, apart from the red shirt bit.

"There's nothing wrong in appreciating great talent."

So very true and something few people can do these days.

Even if we want him get him next year free and let him wreck juve for another year with his wages

We aren't getting Ronaldo so please can we pretend that this thread never existed?

The fact that some of you are fantasising about him scoring and celebrating at the swamp, doing his cringe little celebration and kissing our badge is fucking unnerving.

Either the sun has really gotten to some of you or you're simply off your fucking heads.

And no, he's not fit to lace Messi's boots. "He's played in different leagues" is the exact kind of argument someone comes out with when they haven't watched much of either outside of highlights.

No different to the Messi thread then.

 

[Lavinda Past]

Maradona best I’ve seen he made good sides great.

Messi probably second.

Pele

Cruyff

Both Ronaldos

Lots of players

I'll put my tin hat on...

Denis Law was a better player than Pele. Absolutely no competition imo.

To be fair, it is more entertaining than the window itself.

 

[Tugay One Cup]

No different to the Messi thread then.

As much as it was never going to happen, at least that thread had a bit of substance to it.

10 years worth of substance ha ha

Rude not to

 

[ancoats]

Ronaldo is no longer a statement player, but he is still an effective player.

he is now a statement show man you roll out to sell shirts and tickets
being a effective player is long gone just like messi

 

[Bobby Heaton Moor]

He'd absolutely destroy the league again with the supply from Kev but can't see it happening. Also not sure he and Pep are on the best of terms.

 

[Tugay One Cup]

10 years worth of substance ha ha

Yes, as opposed to 36 hours of no substance.

I understand what your saying but both are still top players but not what they were.

 

[mat]

He's a ****.

Not the kind of **** we need in our squad. We have a team of cunts. Not a team with selfish cunts playing for themselves.

So you are not keen then Mat ?

 

[Barcon]

Good player but he can fuck off.

I can't argue with his playing record.

There's just something about him I can't find him likeable.
