#Ronaldinho - Sport
What do you make of Ronaldinho's career, do you think he could have done more?
One of the best players to watch in his prime his prime and it's hard to do him justice without video so I encourage you to CZcams highlights of his performances versus Real Madrid and England etc.
I would also love your feedback about this new style of video, did you enjoy it?
Great video.
Ronaldinho lacked discipline but had superb skills, as always with most of brazilian players. Here in Brazil, club management is more like a political thing and it destroys everything. No player has the support it needs to become worldclass. He needed it for better mentality. It's a good theme for a video, btw: politics and football, presidents vs CEOs.
Search about "Cruzeiro EC corruption".
Recently, Red Bull has bought Bragantino, a small traditional club. They have been promoted to Serie A. They will show in 2020, very clearly, how our clubs are a big messy.
You know bro people just have their own way of looking at life. If you read the player's tribune article about Ronaldinho, you can see why he was like that.
He always wanted to be happy. And in my opinion, if somebody could instill the hunger and seriousness in him, then it would have done more harm than good.
It could be that he would be bogged down by the thought of winning and would no longer be willing or be able to perform like he did. Maybe we should just thank his carefree attitude, which gave him confidence, joy and willingness to play football and us the miracles to watch as a result.
Now this type of psychological phenomenon was also once the focal point of discussion when the people in England were wondering whether or not to start a football league.
So, I think that we should rather be thankful to his attitude than critical.
Kaka and Adriano
Totally love the new style, its different from what we are used to. Id love a Gazza video or some sort of Lampard vs Gerrard vs Scholes
@@shyamaprosadbanerjee8626 fantastic bro😎Sometimes we mhst judt stop wondering and criticising and just be thankful we got to see The Beautiful Man in The Beautiful Game.
Point is he did it his way. We wanted more while he just wanted to enjoy life. The better question is, does he have any regrets?
i don't think so , he won everything , but he may say how would it be if i had been deciplined like ronaldo
@@feelmymusicstyle5912 Why do we always have to try to put someone in someone else's shoes and want them to do it this way or that way. If he does not regret it then so be it, that's all I am saying.
@@KarimViteam not trying to put him to someone else's shoes , am just saying that he could've done more if he was more deciplined that's all
@@feelmymusicstyle5912 Ok, got you.
Not only that... is stupid and extremely euro-centric to talk about late Dinho´s career like it was a failure after Milan: he went on to win Copa Libertadores de América with Atlético Mineiro!!!
I think Ronaldinho lives his life how he wanted to . That’s a Win . Nobody has ever gave so much Joy to Football than Ronaldinho . No devate
Exactly. CR7 is an addict versus Ronaldinho who payed out of pure joy. Completely different realities.
Correct
He WAS dedicated. Dedicated to pure joy. He did what he loved the most and became a legend. I envy him. Ask the question what football is and the answer is Ronaldinho. He made a generation love the game.
one of the greatest, sure. a legend? I don't believe so
@@chromex21 a legend
True but I would answer this question with bergkamp
@@chromex21 ronaldinho is a Legend. I have seen games, he did things so incredebly beautiful. For me together woth Zidane the best players i have seen. Together with Messi and ronaldo who i enjoy a lot less then the former 2
@TheWeeaboo ronaldinho I think never gave his life for football. That's just the thing. Ronaldinho was just pure fun. And that will be his legacy. Ok yes it was a short stay at the top, but to say messi outperformed ronaldinho, is either caring about completely different things when watching football, or you never seen ronaldinho in his prime playing 90 minute matches for a season. This man electrified me like messi never did. This man didnt just won games for Barca, he put on a circus show while doing it. Ok he didnt score 50 goals, but the sheer fun reflected on the team and the fans, and was the (re)start of barcelona as most kids know it today.
Also, dont forget ronaldinho had a huge part to play in the start of messi's career in barcelona, arguably the most important moment of any player. So that also is part of his legacy.
The special thing, and never shown before, thing about Ronaldo and messi is that they are performing at that outer world class for 15 years. And that is a very special talent in itself.
Last but not least, I prefer midfielders over attackers. For me zidane and ronaldinho. The xavi iniesta combination, where the best I have seen. Then comes Brazilian ronaldo, messi and portugese Ronaldo. Then a shitton of amazing players that deserve mentioning. But looking back, these are my favorites.
He had a great career. He won everything without compromising on anything. He is a definition of living life to the fullest. Smiling assassin was and will remain one of a kind.🤙🤙
As a Brazilian I loved the video BUT
Every video I've ever seen about Ronaldinho undermines his spell in South America, where he went to lead the best match in the History of the Brazilian League while at Flamengo (a 5-4 match against Neymar's Santos), and almost singlehandedly won Atlético Mineiro their first ever Libertadores (South American Champions League).
With 20% of his talent he certainly did an impact in Brazil, a place where the fans always felt he could have done more for (since he left at such a young age).
Footballers like Ronaldinho are artists, expressing who they are when they play. If he had a different mentality, he wouldn't have been the player we all got to experience.
I am madridista, and I have not seen any better performance from any player than peak Ronaldinho. It was a force of nature.
We all know he could have been even greater but we should just appreciate the genius, however short his time at the top was.
The most iconic player of my childhood no doubt.
He is the most fun player of all time and is the reason why I love football and Barca
Samuel Ronaldinho.
True, this man made me a barca and football. When i was much younger i had his barca shirt, brazil shirt, and a shirt with his picture on it.
Wait...You're telling me that Ronaldinho could have been a better footballer than he had been? *Mind Blown*
If he was about that life .... Messi nor CR7 would not come close ... He was a GOD ⚽️💯
@@michaelparsons1532 Don't go there. I don't doubt that a far more disciplined Ronaldinho would have outdone Cristiano in terms of overall influence. However, Messi is more talented, more efficient, and is a refined, more complete, and more intelligent version of a peak Diego Maradona. Even Messi's mindblowing statistics don't show half of his greatness.
He would've lost his creativity though, he would get the same hate treatment as CR7 back in the day.
Kenny Song nobody was more naturally talented than ronaldinho. Doesn’t mean he’s the best but unquestionably the most talented
@@bigstan5705 naah naturally?? He's the third best after messi and maradona... I mean, leo and diego just ran at 35kmph with the ball within half a feet of there body.. Taking on 5/6 at a go
He played for the same reason we amateurs and Sunday league players play. He loved the game! He like us love playing this game.
He is the football itself.... A legend...
He won the Libertadores Cup, you can't ignore that!
That´s an excellent point. This was more than a "significant success". It was a milestone in his career.
Not so True desporto.. What Flamengo did this year is a one in a million case. Also Ronaldinho won The libertadores with a Team that was not even close to The favorites..
@@desporto6559 Libertadores are way more competitive/balanced than Europa League for example and Brazilian league its more competitive than France league, Italy league nowadays(old Italy its incomparable) and Portugal league. Its never the same teams to be in top 4, almost every year are different teams who finish in top 4. Flamengo played very well and managed to play even better than Liverpool in some moments of the match, if wasn't for Jorge's bad choices in substituitions, it could gone differently.. Real Madrid in 2017 had a discret result against Grêmio.. So, its clear that some south american clubs are getting expressive and Libertadores and Brasileirão are very competitive, it was indeed very significant for Ronaldinho's or any player's career to won it in the age he was, leading the team as he leaded.. Although for lots(many of them!) of reasons, mostly terrible administrative one's in the south american tournaments and clubs, the European leagues are far ahead. Still, some things we can not miss or ignore in south american football..
@@fillipiangelo Flamengo played better than Liverpool lol, it was a very discret win for Liverpool, they felt pressure..
@@desporto6559 Not "easily". He had a amazing team to coach with a chemestry that you don't find easily. Last year Sampaoli was on Brazil too and didn't win anything.
You miss a very important part of his career: He won the Copa Libertadores with Atlético Mineiro. He had some extraordinary performances in 2012-13. By the way, he is the only player in the entire world to win best player of the year/Ballon d’Or, World Cup, Champions League and Copa Libertadores. If you did not mention that may be only because of your lack of knowledge.
Your missing the point. Ronaldinhio could of lasted a few more years longer at the top but it's he's choice on how he faded out. Brazilians love to party especially Ron
Yes, he could. But, either way The Copa Libertadores conquest is relevant.
He just got a small team in brazil and became the champion of south America! I will always think he never had a bad time, the coachs didn't trust him just because he liked to party...like Romario...
A VERY SMALL TEAM !
I agree it would have been interested to see an analysis of him playing in the central midfield role for Atletico Mineiro atleast.
Ronaldinho is one of my favorite players of all time
Still the greatest I ever seen he made me fall in love with soccer and I was a black kid from the inner city of America where everyone else was watching basketball and football I was watching Ronaldinho
Great mini documentary.
Gaucho redefined football.
For me, he's the greatest to ever touch a football. Ever seen a person you can't find a thing to hate/dislike?
He was number 1 on the FIFA STREET game (2005) with a 97 rating too!
Y'all better put respect to his name
He could've been much more, but for sure he was the true embodiment of football's happiness like no one else before or after. Excellent video.
GREAT video. I think losing Frank Rijkard and that freedom he had took a lot of the joy from Ronaldinho, and without that joy he lost his desire for the game. He played for the beauty and purity of the game and had little use for micro managers like Pep who he saw as a painting contractor trying to teach Michaelangelo how to paint the Sistine Chapel.
The last statement on the video was deep FMS as a true football fan I nearly cried
He reinvented himself in 2012 and 2013 with Atlético Mineiro. He almost won the Brazilian league (a title that Atlético haven't won since 1971) and won 3 titles, including the first Libertadores in club history, being elected the best player and part of the team of the tournament in almost all of those competitions. Of course he wasn't the same player of the Barcelona times, but failing to mention this performance in a video that talks about his career because it wasn't in Europe is just disrespectful.
Make your own video on it then 😂, you sound buttburt
Kobe Leonard it is disrespectful
context
Nothing wasted with Ronaldinho . He played like he lived his life and we as football fans enjoyed every minute .
I'm sure Rivaldo wear 10 and Ronaldinho wear 11 in World Cup 2002
exactly
Yeah you're totally right
Why not
Ronaldinho is equally as good as Messi, the difference is that Ronaldinho is an accidental miracle that loved nothing more than to play football.
the greatest joyful legend of all time
He just enjoys playing, never giving the best in the world a thought.
It comes as a package, his spontaneity and joy of life is the reason why he was such an entertaining player to watch, but its also the reason why he was skipping practice to go party. We can't criticize one attribute knowing that it shares the same root with another attribute that we love.
Explained in one word: Fun
He just did what he wanted to do and did it with perfection. THE most talented football player of all time. Imagine he would have trained like Ronaldo, then even Ronaldo and Messi would be a joke compared to him!
Hmmmm, I don´t think so, but he was as good, that´s for sure.
im a messi fanboy and I do think he's the best player ever dead or alive. But your statement is true.. if Ronaldinho had trained like Ronaldo, i don't think Messi would hold the title of best player ever.
A bit of a paradox though don't you think? IF he trained like Ronaldo, he probably wouldn't of enjoyed his game as much and probably not performed as brilliantly.
@@SilvaAcademyFootball maybe he wouldn't have enjoyed his life as much because he liked the party life. But that's what I mean, if he had the work ethic of Ronaldo --which comes with sacrifices-- then.... So not that much of a paradox I think because his mentality would be different as well
@@gianflavio_ That makes sense. But do you think his 'party life' and carelessness helped with his skills? I think if he had a much more serious mentality, he wouldn't of been as creative/daring. I definitely see your point though.
He is the only player that reminds that football most of all is joy!!
Some people wanted him to have the mindset of a CR7 but i think he didn't need that because football to him was more than a game, more than a profession!! That's why he smiled most of the time because he was enjoying his dream
AK 47 yeah but if he had the mindset of Ronaldo his career at the top would have been longer
Ronnie made me fall in love with football and Barcelona. Without Ronaldinho , maybe I would've never fall in love with this beautiful game .
Even though Messi may be better and Ronaldo more potent, Ronaldinho's game was beautiful. It can be said magical. The way he touched the ball, his movements, passing was so mesmerizing..
Your last lines were simply poetic and filled with the same nostalgia as that of the ending scenes of The Hobbit: Battle of the five armies. Ronaldinho just lacked the discipline of Messi or CR7 but as a talent he is from another planet altogether.
Blessed to see this man at his peak! Nothing last forever, enjoy while u can!
My mind does not ponder, when i look at football today Iam grateful for every time i watch Ronaldinho played. If you like something you will want it to last forever which is unrealistic when he had the chance he did his best and mentored and inspired and celebrated that's his beauty. Until you understand that you will keep asking yourself irrelevant questions or worst questions you have answers too.
Ronaldinho played football in a way that was just that most could not even imagine. He epitomized the beautiful game. It wasn't just about a trick or a skill. It was actual functional , creative ability that excited the whole world.
Ronaldinho is reason why I started watching football and started supporting Barcelona. Btw, great video as always.
I don’t think he has any regrets
Otshepeng Ditshego well now he is broke, so...
@@alex-cm9fd I don't think so.
Ronaldinho's talent is wayyyy too valuable for him to be broke. People will still pay good money to watch the man do keepy uppies with a ball ffs
Ayodele Opedare no, he is broke, google it
@@alex-cm9fd lol dinho has TONS of money, dude
Just one point about the second goal, Cafú told Ronaldinho about Seaman position.
Great video! :)
Just about the only player who makes me feel like wanting to go kick a ball when watching him play
He did lead atlético mineiro to a libertadores title, which is no small thing... At Flamengo he was kind of alone in a team that wasn't getting paid.
even when you're not a football fan . you watch a moment passing by channels and get mesmerized. That is Ronaldinho. he will make you his fan.
I remember watching a documentary about him they called him “ a troubled genius, but the best footballer of his generation” 🤙🤙🤙🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
This man is the reason why I busted both my ankles when I was playing football way back in the early 2000's. I tried to emulate everything he did.
At his peak he was even better than Messi for
Me.
I agree. For me he is the most genius player we ever seen, followed by Zidane
@TheWeeaboo as a football man through and through I can honestly say Messi could only dream of being as skillful as Dinho but both him and ronny scored more goals
@TheWeeaboo your criteria is not complete. If it was, Thiery Henry should have won the Ballendor instead of Ronaldinho.
What Ronaldinho do with the ball Messi never did an cont do, Messi last longer an more discipline than he dose
Best player ever total game changer
Honestly this is the best football channel on CZcams. Great work!
You my friend, has just almost made me cry. 😢
I’m really crying rn abt a tactics video thank you😂😂
Happy New Year FMS, looking forward to more quality content over the course of the year. Please do a video on David Villa next, to commemorate his retirement. That would be aces!
Nice Video, dinho maded make of us love football and Barcelona, he was an amazing and fun player to watch and his smile was contagious
You could start a series of current managers in their platter years such as Carlo Ancelotti, Pep, Arteta and so on. Love your content and the huddle you put into this, happy new year's!
A dedicated Ronaldinho. Now, that sends shivers down my spine.
Good vid.. thanks..
Lived & played the way he wanted..
Really love your videos man. Keep it up! This one was brilliant.
Great video the info was clear & reflected a good part of his story
Your channel is so underrated man , pllz keep the Analysis and numbers coming and you'll have a guaranteed follower
Ronaldinho is the best player I’ve ever seen, unbelievable genius
You forget Ronaldinho won Copa Libertadores with Atlético Mineiro in 2013. This is an important milestone in his career. Football is way more than what happens in Europe.
The best channel i ever seen thanks man
Beautiful writing.
Football itself, thanks man for the video.
He is one of my favorite players, and the one I enjoy to watch the most
Still one of the top 10 players of all time for me. Ronaldinho in his pomp was devastating, a force of nature.
Bro, just imagine if Dinho did stay consistent. He would’ve had a MJ like career in my opinion. Comebacks and chips galore.
Amazing documentary
Ronaldinho at Barcelona in 2005 and 2006 : never before seen magical football.
From the 2006 world cup on ........ Ronaldinho fell from grace, not able to display the wonderful skill he became famous for.
I actually watched Ronaldinho play in Brazil for Atletico Mineiro in 2012 : he was a heavier and much slower player, yet there were moments of pure magic as when Ronaldinho made the assist for the winning goal.
The crowd was ecstatic by his mere presence on the pitch, and while at Atletico in 2012 and 2013, Ronaldinho's presence had a contagious effect with the performances of all the other players elevated to levels not before seen in their careers.
Then in 2014, the same old story ...... Ronaldinho way less committed to training session among rumors of hard partying and poor performances during matches.
Actually 2013 was the last magical act from one of football greatest magicians.
Amazing... Amazing New look of video and quality content that is simple and unique. Keep it up.
Great video man because of him I watch ⚽
I shed a tear when I watched this... 🤙🏾DINHO🤙🏾 the only player football fell in love with....
You made me cry with that closing line 😩
I absolutely love your videos 🙏🏼
My Favorite Brazilian Footballer
Messi makes you love a team. Ronaldinho Made you love THE BEAUTIFUL GAME.
I think you guys never saw Ronaldinho playing for Atletico Mineiro, after his release from Flamengo. He played great, was a leader in assists and became South America's best player in 2013, when he won the Copa Libertadores for the Roosters.
Love to see a video about Okocha
Messi and Ronaldo may be the best, but Ronaldinho was the most fun to watch
"A certain Messi was beginning to appear more often".....
Gave me chills.....
Denison - what could have been
Lit up all his tournaments
Was the world's most expensive
The best player I have seen in my 28 years
Ronaldinho just like Ronaldo & Alex Pato & Adriano (& probably Neymar) never reached their full potential
career wise, kinda reminds me of Rooney thou.
was amazing then suddenly plummeted due to physical condition (Rooney being fat and Ronaldinho being prone to alcohol and all that stuffs).
HenSt1985 yes, kind of...the sad fact is, too many Brazilian talents wasted due to (usually) lack of discipline, or injuries, no wonder the last world cup they won was 2002 ☹️
He won the world best 3 times so not that bad
Brazilians like to party haha, that's what i am noticing here
HenSt1985 to be fair Rooney had an amazing career with a United team which at the end of his day was no longer a United team. Scoring 20 goals as a number 10 and always putting in work for his team. I think you should give him far more credit
All I have to say is soccer wouldn’t be the way it is today if it wasn’t for him !! Game changer !!!!
I know he made me fall in love with the beautiful game, and he remains my footballing role model.
really good video!
Great video. Please do that of JJ Okocha
That was a really great video holy crap
He could had been so much better if his mind was like Ronaldo's
Sadly he went on the left side and became alcoholic hence why he was already fat in 2007
Tbf if anyones mind was like ronaldo they would really good
@@abdulkarimabro1113
Absolutely!
if his mind was like Ronald's. We would never have the Ronaldinho everyone loves.
He won't be the same Ronaldinho we remember if he's like Ronaldo. He'd like Ronaldo, but someone like Ronaldo who's not better, hence he'd be unknown.
Im surprised that Ronaldinho was the most talked about after the 2002 WC. I always remember it as the Ronaldo WC
With all the discipline in the world, he wouldn't be the icon he is today if he played without joy. The JOY brought out the beast in him. It's also clear he wasn't obsessed with success... that's why he'd lose a game and still smile lol...and no manager can take that...cuz they all wanna win...they all wanna be in control. Prolly why I still feel the move to less demanding leagues was the best for him...cuz that suited the lifestyle he wanted to live. Play the game he loves, and have time for himself too. & I respect him a lot for being bold enough to make that choice, cuz as we all know, the WORLD, really wanted him to be a slave to the game.
Still my fav footballer of all time!
I've been a Real Madrid fan for 22 years. Ronaldinho is the best player I've ever seen in my life. The end.
Thanks for being the best Ronaldinho ❤️
Nostalgia galore
Perhaps the most entertaining footballer I have seen play.
he made us enjoy the game. Man was genius.
Ronaldinho best player without most award
Football Misses ronaldinho
He enjoyed playing football and people enjoyed it so much. I think he doesn't have any regrets.
Ronaldinho didn't care much about stats and achievement, all he wanted was to play the beautiful game, which he did. And he doesn't regret nothing at all.
That's the difference between him and the Portuguese Ronaldo
Everyone has talent but you need to be disciplined
Part of the fun and playstyle from Ronaldinho is because of his personality. Ronaldo is great and effective, but also really boring.
CR7 is a great player but Ronaldinho was a god ... Period 👌🏿⚽️
@@jonnyso1 Great said,Ronaldo(Portuguese one) is just boring to watch while Ronaldinho gave goosebumps everytime he played
@@CommonSapien00 to be fair Ronaldo when he was at his prime years was not boring whatsoever and a joy to watch every games . He was the reason I started to turn me away from dinho 's tragedy Ronaldo has changed his playstyle alot but it was only made after some horrible injuries like muscle tear and knees problems.
Great Video. Would love to see one about the dutch god Dennis Bergkamp.
The question about if Ronaldinho could have been better if he worked hard like Ronaldo is moot. This man played football like nobody before or after him, he played like a kid in a playground, always had a smile on his face, he was never controversial and he made hundreds of millions love the game because of the joy he brought. That's not something Ronaldo (obsessed with trophies, awards & stats) or Messi (pure alien, unrealistic talent) could achieve. Being more "serious" and putting in work would have robbed us of his effortless charm & class. Which is why no one is like him, he made it look so easy and beautiful WITHOUT the effort. The man was simply the happiest man in the world anytime the ball is at his feet, just give him the ball and watch him do magic.
