R9 is the ONLY player who can possibly play for Barcelona/Real Madrid and AC Milan/ Inter Milan while still being loved and adored by all those fanbases
R9 was a beast during his prime. Looking back at his career makes me appreciate how long players like CR7 and Messi have been playing on top level whilst staying away from major injuries.
And it's sad that he did never reach his full potential. The injuries destroyed him and the only good thing about that was that we could see way more tricks.
well back then in seria A the defenders usualy didnt even try to take the ball from him they say it was lucky if they foult him no wonder he get all does injuries
@@vladbuciu3099 idk where people get this from. Serie A was very physical thats true, but they had one of the best defense line in terms of quality, they def did not go for a foul all the time. Some of the cleanest defenders of that time come from Serie A. Its a complete fallacy that defender in Serie A used to foul Ronaldo purposefully. They NEVER fouled him on purpose, it was a part of the game.
@@MadarYay its unfair to say he’d never be the best player in the world. We will never know because of those injuries. Based on watching him in his prime i think he had a good chance to be top 3-5 tho
@@MadarYay this probally has to be one of the dumbest things i've ever read, and my feed is full with idiots. Congratulations, i'm wondering what age you are?
when you see how many people get injuries it just makes it even more crazy that messi and ronaldo have been the best in the world for over 15 years, thats true goats.
Football is so soft now than back in the glory days that it is nearly becoming a no contact sport nowadays. That is why you don't see too many injuries nowadays.
@@mesbahulhoda9539 nah just the sport itself is more professional, players have better recovery technology, diet etc Football changed so much in this domain its not even comparable
@@VictorDurand-me5yu exactly lmao people saying it is soft will not even survive one tackle in the PL without crying. Hate when weak people think they can compete with pro athletes. Football is not softer now than the 90s because the tackles are just as hard and you get red cards for them that is the only difference. It is not like that stops players from doing hard tackles people are really stupid to believe this. The fitness and diets of players have improved so much. Buffon, Zlatan, CR7, Messi, Modric, Suarez, Lewa even Mane and Salah and players now reaching the age of 30 are reaching their prime years. Before 25-28 was seen as prime years and 30+ was retirement. Now most of these world class players are having primes from 25-35 some players even earlier depending on talent. The level is really high although I do think Midfield and defensive quality is not as good as it was in 2000s and perhaps late 90s which means strikers can boost their stats more. I still think it is very impressive how long professional career lasts now.
I don't judge the best on how many trophies they won or how long they managed to stay at the top. I judge them by how high they got. No one got as high as Ronaldo Nazario.
I'm an Italian Juventus Fan. I'm a greaf Messi and CR7 fan and I have seen many football stars playing by the stadium during the years ( Del Piero, Baggio, Zidane, Cristiano Ronaldo just to mention Juventus ones) and everyone knows the rivalry between Juve and Inter Milan, but for me there is no one like Ronaldo R9 , by far the greatest of all time. Usually a compilation video makes a good player seems a great player. But this isn't true with Ronaldo R9, actually its the opposite: you have to watch a full game to understand his greatness, never miss a ball, makes always a great decision and he was so quick and skillfull you can't imagine. He showed the world what this sport can be.
These videos are probably the most entertaining content of your channel. It’s cool to see you learn about legends of the game. R9 was the reason everyone had that haircut as kids because of how likeable and exciting he was as a player and person. React to Adriano now bro, he’s another Brazilian legend that could’ve reached a higher potential had he not suffered so many injuries and suffered from depression. His decline was so bad he quit playing football to gang bang back home in Brazil.
Adriano didnt gang back. He just got back to the hood to live alongside his family and childhood friends! He gave up his dream cause he lost his father so he went back to stay with mom. A true man!
Cruzeiro is the club from my city that i grew up watching and rooting for, and today he bought the team and it's bringing back to glory, so proud that he started here
I remember watching him in the 2002 World Cup I was a kid then but I I understood how great and respected he was, he’s a true goal machine a complete striker ❤️❤️❤️ that 2002 Brazil team was like an allstar team and I’m not even Brazilian lol
He isn't the GOAT because of the injuries and tireoide problems, but I've never seen anyone better than him. When he was 100% or even 80% there's no one in history I would take ahead of him.
Later on in his career, seeing him play was similar to seeing Tiger Woods play now. Didn't happen often but when it did it always brought a smile to my face. The dude was legendary
Sammer was the best performing player for Germany that year when they won Euro '96. He was a fine enough sweeper / ball-playing defender, but Ronaldo probably was robbed there TBH. And that wasn't Zidane, but he did play for France in that '98 final. He scored two headers IIRC.
Damn bro I remember you from when you had under 10k subs you've come along way since then, even your knowledge has drastically improved. Keep up the hard work man.
Flamengo is the biggest club in Brazil (in terms of popularity). They had a legendary player called zico who is maybe the 2nd best Brazilian player ever. He has the most goals of all time for a midfielder. If you can find a good highlights vid of him it would be cool to react to.
I still believe R9 never reached his prime. It is commonly said that most players reach their maturity around 25-28 years old, R9 never reached that age being healthy. I cannot imagine what he could have accomplished if he didn't have any injuries and had a healthier life style like Messi or CR7
First time comment, but old time viewer. Man keep it up! Makes me excited to see football again. Haven’t been keeping up since 2020, But the reactions brought me back. Wishing you the best! Keep them coming!
Respect for saying football and not soccer bro. Ronaldo was the most naturally gifted striker the world has and maybe will ever see. The only thing that could stop prime Ronaldo was his knees. There was never a greater sight in football than seeing him go through the gears and run at defenders. Youngest player to ever win world footballer of the year, back to back season world record transfers etc. Incredible player who will always have a :what if" by his name. THAT'S HOW GOOD HE WAS AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN.
5:05 "What kind of club is Flamengo?" I hate to say it since I hate the club, but they're the club with the biggest fanbase in south america (even bigger than River Plate or Boca Juniors), and within their country, they could be considered as the Dallas Cowboys of Brazil
R9 is what you get when you put together the power and strength of Cristiano and the skill of Ronaldinho. But he wasn't extravagant like Ronaldinho; he was economical and effective, more like Zidane. Did stopovers when he needed to, sprinted when he had to, rounded goalkeepers when he should have. He blended athleticism and skill in the right proportions, that made him the best. He IS truly the most complete no. 9 in the history of the game. Other insanely complete no. 9s who combine(d) athleticism and skill are Suárez, Zlatan, Eusébio, Eto'o, Van Basten and Henry. Then you have less complete no. 9s - but clinical and merciless goal machines - like Gerd Müller, Romário, Lewandowski and Agüero, who are also in the "Top 10 Forwards OAT" debate. But R9 stands out - despite the injuries, despite the hyperthyroidism - that was because he was the best. He could afford to be as artistic as Zidane and Ronaldinho; but he WAS also as dangerous in front of goal as Romário and Müller when he could.
cristiano ronaldo and messi are great but ronaldo was feared.one man army upfront. talentwise unmatched just destroyed by heavy injuries.football was much more defensive and harder back then so way harder to score
Being a Hazard fan i can only admire him more. Footballers after injuries are never the same but he even managed to stay on top with all those career ending injuries. Now i hope we get to see Hazard back to his best for the last time because he is reaching the end of his career.
Ronaldo made that haircut to make reporters speak of something other than his injury problems going into the World Cup, he was so fed up having to answer questions about it. It worked. 😂
I remember that 2002 world Cup. I used to bet on the football a bit and Ronaldo had been out injured for 1.5 years and he came back right at the end of the season and played 2-3 games for inter milan and scored 5 goals including a hatrick in one game. I remember checking the betting for top scorer in the world Cup a couple of months before the tournament and he was 20/1. I put £500 on him to finish as tournament top scorer and had a great time 😆
Rumors say that in that final against France, Nike forced him to play through injury, and was visibly not his usual self and probably was the cause of all his future injuries
Ronaldo Luis Nazario de Lima had the perfect nickname. "The Freak". Whatch his highlights .. you'll never see more defenders and goalkeepers hit the ground 😅🤣 ☠️
@@bigfundamental1096 yeah I mean, he Ronaldo had 3 ballon d'or for his career and already a world champion. So it is not kinda comparison. So it just the what if. What if Ronaldo didn't get his severe injuries? Would he set the that equals to Messi and Cristiano region?
