Would add strength in depth, sell shirts and seats. And he can still take a wicked free kick.
But where do we play him? Make him complete with Petrov and Robbie on the left, or SWP on the right? Or as a forward with Bellamy and the big 20 goal a season player we are hopefully signing this summer?
He's not as naive defensively as most people think, but he's no workhorse. Unless this is because Elano is off and Ronaldinho would pacify Robbie I can't see Hughes going for it. Maybe Robbie's contract states that there must always be at least one other Brazilian International at the club.

a definite yes from me
we could play a team like this without any additional transfers:
Bojinov
Ronaldinho Robinho
Ireland
De jong Kompany
Bridge Onouha Dunne Richards
Given
and on the bench you would have top quality to come on as in Swp, Petrov and Elano. We need to improve our squad a lot if were to compete at the top and ronnie would definitely improve us. Plus the fact he's a huge name still would enable us to have a better chance to bring other top players in. Who would the likes of etoo or villa for example rather play alongside? ronaldinho or vassell??

10 million is a steal for a plyer who still has a lot of quality, is only 29 and will be a sign of intent from our owners. The manager's task is reigning him in and keeping his partying antics to a low!

get him signed. he will give us moments of magic, but its the name more than anything. he will defo help bring players to the club just because he's there. he's a big name, and personally i think he is still a world class player. when u have play makers like robbie, ronnie and stevie, we dont need tall forwards, as the ball will be on the ground 90% of the attacking time. sign tevez and ronnie, then sort the defence out!

we should definetly sign him.
look guys he's the same guy who won fifa world player award in 04 and 05.
the thing is that players generally tend to lose motivation toward end of career. The thing is motivation, and that is the managers job. so long as hughes can motivate him to play then he will be excellent, whilst if he just whants to fight him, and treat him like how he treated Elano this year then he will get a ultra crap player who won't bother playing for the team. you see when it comes to managing top quality players managers have to change their views. cause what they need then is not discipline rather more motivation. if you control some shite team like blackburn going for 5th position then you discipline your players as much as you can, and in turn use tactics that match that mentality. but when you have players like CR7, Ronaldinho, Robinho it's all about motivation. if you treat them well they will play well themselves.
