Ronaldo Brazilian is the best easily, problem is most fans today are youngsters who never saw Ronaldo at his peak during PSV, Barcelona and Inter Milan days
*This Ronaldo #R9 aka Fenomeno was the 1st one, then came Ronaldinho (Ro-nal-di-neo), then Cristiano Ronaldo #CR7. *Ronaldo #R9 and Ronaldinho are both from Brazil, Cristiano Ronaldo #CR7 is from Portugal. *It's like basketball, the era was more of the defining point. Jordan era will always be considered the tough, intense, physical and more exciting era, Similar to Ronaldo #R9 he will be the Jordan of football, facing defenders head on and traumatizing them, while Ronaldinho is like Kobe, and Cristiano Ronaldo #CR7 is LeBron, he is of the new era. *In terms of accolades and accomplishment. Ronaldo #R9 and Ronaldinho both are world cup winners which is the greatest of any sports medal, Cristiano Ronaldo #CR7 is not, on the hand Cristiano Ronaldo #CR7 have won 5 Uefa Champions League, Ronaldo #R9 never won it during his career. World cup is nationality based and Uefa Champions League is club based, and it is the highest club football medal. You can Wikipedia both of them for more intricate details, but if ask any true football head they'll tell you Ronaldo #R9 was the complete footballer, Cristiano Ronaldo #CR7 and Messi broke all the records but never won the world cup. MUCH LOVE!!!
Great points your right on noone maybe messi can compare to guys pulling you trying to keep you from moving but R9 will always be the greatest at making best defenders of that era look weak he was my inspiration for playing football n I loved wearing my #9 jersey in honor of the greatest soccer player to ever live
Dimas Brilian Haekal nah CR7 disrecpet Ronaldo with his name, R9 is the best of all times! But new generations just talk about marketing clout between Messi & Ronaldo and forget the real GOAT, yes sir R9 is the GOAT and all in south america knew it! Salutes from Colombia.
He was like an Eagle *Speed *Power *Accuracy His feet movement was faster than a boxer, he was the most dangerous striker in the D box, in one by one position he was the best..... O man, i am just out of my words Hands down, El Phenomeno.
This was the original Ronaldo. Ronaldinho got his name because he was originally called Ronaldo but there was already this one so he got nicknamed Ronaldinho which means "Little Ronaldo"
Actually Ronaldinho is just a nickname his real name is Ronaldo de Assis Moreira he was called Ronaldinho Gaucho due to the area he was from..Incidentally Ronaldo R9 was in fact called Ronaldinho in the Beginning of his playing career as there was another Ronaldo playing at that time by the name of Ronaldo Guiaro who was a Centre Back...Ronaldinho literally means little Ronaldo
To me Ronaldo, “the phenomenon”, is the best. He influenced a whole generation of footballers, and his story is great: in 99 he suffered a knee injury that made him stop for 5 months, in 00 he suffered another injury in the same knee that stopped his career for 15 months, he recovered and in 02 he conquered the world cup and the ballon d’or. The rest of his career is also great but that recovery was epic.
Loved to see Ronaldo play, I was there when he made his debut in Europe (Vitesse-PSV and many games after that) but he is not even in the top 5 of best ever imo, top 10 ... maybe. 1. Cruijff 2 (or 3). Messi. 3 (or 2). c-Ronaldo 4. Maradonna 5. Garrincha 6. Bergkamp. 7. Romario 8. Zidane 9. Best 10. Ronaldinho or Ronaldo
His kit, his trainers, his number 9, his pace, control, flare, his vision, infinite skill, his tenacity in charging at the box will remain in my memories for life, he was the complete striker and the best to ever do it. I love diego maradonna but the game evolved, with centre backs like nesta and cannavaro. A pele would get man marked and bounced off by athelico madrids giminez and godin. It’s a fact. The R9 ronaldo is timeless, he would dominate any era. In terms of individual success Messi and CR7 are the best. Diego Maradonna was my personal favourite but if we’re talking ability and talent, R9 and Zidane are the best ever. Thank you R9 it’s because of you I love this game.
Ronaldo fenomeno is the best because he was gifted from the start , he was special , one of those that you only get a few in a generation. Zidane said it himself , Ronaldo was the best he has ever seen , he always saw something new from him every time they trained together in Real Madrid.
You were right about him getting leg injuries he was too fast and powerful for many aggressive defenders back in the 90s and they just were hounding on him and he hurt his knee on many occasions and it changed him forever still one of the greatest but without the injuries he would’ve been a whole other beast ... it’s a shame . So young
Ronaldo Luís Nazário de Lima, commonly known as Ronaldo, is a Brazilian retired professional footballer who played as a striker. Popularly dubbed O Fenômeno, he is widely considered to be one of the greatest football players of all time
Ronaldo #9 because he was more physical in the field and 2nd will Ronaldinho because the man was a wizard with skills and the way he made plays and 3rd Messi because ronaldinho was like his teacher when they were playing together in barcelona 🤘
Ronaldinho was never his teacher. He Said it himself that He didnt teach him anything Messi already had it all He Just Made sure Messi felt comfortable because He was shy and helped him to adapt. If you Look at Messis Videos when He was Young He plays exactly the same as today so what did he teach him? They both have different playing Style. I Rest my Case. Messi is the greatest of all time even Ronaldinho Said it himself just 4 days ago Look it up
7:26 Easy. Messi and CR7 are among the greatest, legends of the game. But what separates Ronaldo Fenomeno and Ronaldinho is that they were also big and hard to bring down. Cristiano Ronaldo is big, but he runs tall, so his center of gravity is higher, so he ends up on the ground a lot. Messi runs low to the ground and has great balance, so he's hard to bring down, but he's not as physically strong. Also, during late 90's and early 2000's defenders were on some gangsta sh*t. They could get away with a lot more than nowadays, before tricksters and superstars became the protected species. You had the likes of Jaap Stam, Sol Campbell, Alessandro Nesta, Paolo Maldini, Gattuso, Keane, Vieira etc. who were stopping people in their tracks by any means possible.
I love that you guys give your honest opinions on everything you guys don’t know much about soccer but still respect the sport or give it a chance most people don’t 👏🏼💯
The term inho in Brazil means little. When Ronaldo Nazario started playing football people used to call him Ronaldinho. Then r10 ( Ronaldo de assis Moreira )appear, he is younger than Ronaldo Nazario so fans started calling him Ronaldinho. Obviously they stop calling Ronaldo Nazario -inho. On the other hand Cristiano Ronaldo is from Portugal. The first and the real one is Ronaldo Nazario R9
mtas pessoas pensavam q ele nunca ia mais jogar por causa da sua lesão de 2 anos ,mais Ronaldo foi para a copa do mundo ganhou ela e foi artilheiro e ainda foi melhor do mundo em apenas 6 meses ,por isso q ele tem esse apelido de fenômeno
he had a derrick rose like career towards the beginning of his career but he recovered from an impossible injury and won the world cup, became ballon d'or winner (mvp) couple of times more and had a devastating career ending injury later. first injury aged 21 2:47 at inter milan, second injury aged 31 2:49 at ac milan. ps how ironic he got injured in the two italian rivals of milan.
Three team sports with flow, Soccer, Basketball, Ice Hockey, flow is when game is always moving, the flow is what makes each player understand what is expected in order to make it all work in concert.
The best of the time for me is Pele, by the way, my sugestion for you is to see the video called pele tribute, very easy to find. But i like a lot this Ronaldo, i think he was the best striker from the 90s until today.
We have great ones, but The Best Player in Brazilian football history is Pelé, he won 3 World Cups for Brazil National Team, 2 World Championships for Santos FC, every sports Journalist agree he was for 11 seasons the best player of the world... He was a complet player, who could play in every offensive position, he had a style was a mix of Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, A Mix of Neymar and Ronaldo Fenomeno, a dribbler + striker... We also had Mané Garrincha, world champion as well, best player of the world, and Romário, Rivelino, Zico, Bebeto, Ronaldo Fenomeno, Rivaldo, Ronaldinho, Robinho, Kaká...
This is when brazil was unstoppable. When they had this roster. Ronaldo, cafu, roberto carlos, kaka, dida, junior,ronaldhino ... they had a team that even club teams wish they had.
Dad and daughter is the best duet that could be. I have a 2 year old daughter and she is the best thing in my life, so keep going with your work. For Ronaldo, this player is the best striker ever that played football, many consider him as the best player of all time. The injury scene in the video is an iconic moment for all soccer fans because he was injuried in his peek and he was off for three years, some say a non- injured Ronaldo is the best ever by far, and i confirm that. I grew up whatching him and even messi and cr7 (cristiano ronaldo) are below him
Brazilian Ronaldo (R9) is the OG of the Ronaldos. He is my favourite striker/forward of all time. when he was in his prime, before his second major knee injury, he was unstoppable. He was the first player that was as deadly with his right as he was with his left foot. He could dribble with the best of them, and that speed was ridiculous. Even when he gained a few pounds, and was 'out of shape', he was still too big for defenders to knock away from the ball, as his balance was second to none, and his vision and passing skills were also excellent. Ronaldo (Portuguese) R7 has proven to be a great forward, although in this era of the game, the physical play is not as crazy as it used to be during the 90s. R7 is an awesome player with excellent speed and size, but he is not the passer that R9 was. I like R7 over R9 in free kicks and heading, but everything else I give it to the OG from Brazil. Ronaldinho was an attacking midfielder, and never a true forward, so it is hard to compare him to the other two who are forwards. Ronaldinho was, in basketball terms, the best point guard of his generation. R10 (as he is also known) was the most creative passer, and his free kicks are among the best of all time. He was not a speed guy, but was not a slow player, but it needs to be understood that because he played in the middle of the park (as he was a midfielder) the ground he covered was typically in positions where he would need to set his teammates in the attack. R10 just happened to be a killer with his right foot, making him a trailing attacker in the case he advanced into the 18 yard box ready to strike, as he did so many times. I think that the debate is between R7 and R9 about the best ever, with perhaps R7 winning due to him being able to stay healthy for so long, while R9 may have been the most gifted, but needed to take long periods of time rehabilitating from NASTY knee injuries. Brazil has not been able to find their killer touch in front of goal, as they did when they had R9 taking care of things. Neymar is nice, but he is soft and immature, and so far has not showed the killer mentality that R9 had from the time he was a teenager. Brazil needs a new saviour, and it is not Neymar. As far as R7, Portugal will miss him, because he has been everything to them, and easily their best footballer of all time. Eusebio (another Portuguese legend) was awesome, but R7 took the Portuguese game to levels they have never seen it played. My heart says R9, but my brain is saying that R7 because of his ability to stay healthy. R10 was the most entertaining, but that is about it.
This video is all about the greatest player.. So undoubtedly R9.. His speed, skills & dribbling is unremarkable & r7 is good but he is not enough abilities to stand near in R9..
It's true that Ronaldo didn't work as hard as Cristiano is doing right now (because he didn't have to) but some things, like the disorder Ronaldo had, are just written in your DNA and can't be changed. I do agree on the heading part. Of course Cristiano has scored more freekicks but that's because he took more. Ronaldo didn't take a lot of freekicks because he usually had specialists in his team (when he played for Real Madrid for example) I wished that we could see the ratio's and other statistics of them.
I respect your point of view but you cannot compare R9 to R7 and say he was better at free kicks and heading and therefore better...R9 was a beast at free kicks and as to heading he never really needed to head the ball when he could take on 6 payers and score while R7 always needs to be set up by his teammates. I do not share the sentiment
Yeah, as others have said Ronaldinho basically means "little Ronaldo" in Portuguese and he was given that name because Ronaldo (the guy in this video) was already a massive household name in Brazil and the world. Ronaldinho is only a couple of years younger, so they played in the same era, but Ronaldo was already making waves by the time he was 19-20 years old.
So cool you and your daughter doing these. Thought I'd be the same way with my lil girl. She disowned me for some reason from her mom. U guys is awsome
If you want to know something interesting about Ronaldo I'll tell you one story. He was injured of his right knee several times (crossed ligament problems)one of those he was injured during 6 months, and he came back in the Italian Cup final and 30 minutes after getting into the field... he got injured from the other knee, but this time the injury wasn't so easy, he had broken the tendon of the rotula, a complete fracture. it took him 2 years to recover and when he came back (considering the type of injury it was a miracle that he could even walk) he won his second World Cup and after that he signed with Real Madrid and he won practically everything. Phenomenon!!
Ronaldo's name is Ronaldo Nazário. When he started in Brazil, he was nicknamed Ronaldinho, which is something like Johnie... a diminutive suffix also used for endearment when in names. That because he started at 16 in the professional team of Cruzeiro and at the Brazilian National Team (Ronaldo was World Cup champion in 1994, although he did not play in any match) When Ronaldo de Assis Moreira appeared at Grêmio, Ronaldo was already a big star worldwide, but was still called Ronaldinho in Brazil. So Ronaldo de Assis Moreira was called Ronaldinho by people in his southern state and as Ronaldinho Gaúcho in the rest of Brazil, since Gaúcho is a gentilic for people born in that state. The same with Juninho Paulista and Juninho Pernambucano. Both Paulista and Pernambucano define their states of birth (São Paulo and Pernambuco). While Juninho is a diminutive of JÚNIOR. Juninho Paulista: Osvaldo Giroldo Júnior Juninho Pernambucano (best free kicker ever): Antônio Augusto Ribeiro Reis Júnior (a direct translation of that name to english would be "Anthony August Riverside Kings Junior" :))
Many say that Pele was the best ever but he played in the 1950's and 60's. Maybe you want to watch him too. He was also Brazilian. And Diego Maradona (Argentinian) was crowned as the best player of the 20th century together with Pele.
This Ronaldo pre pre injury was the best player to play the game of football. He won the World Player of The Year at 20 (youngest winner ever) and then won it again the following year. Then he was struck by injury and didn't play for three whole years. He returned then immediately helped Brazil win the World Cup and finished top goalscorer of the tournament in 2002. But from the age of 19-21 this guy was on a different planet. The game was at it's defensive best with the best defenders in history and he destroyed them all. That version of him at 19-21 years of age in today's game would score 80 plus a season. Only Messi from the modern era comes close. And from the old-school era only Pele and Maradona are comparable.
R9 Ronaldo was one of the best ever. If wasn't for his seriously bad knees injuries, i think you could argue he would be the best ever. I was able to grow up watching him and Ronaldinho, and was a joy. But I'm a huge CR7 fan too. Pele was great, and despite the period he played in, he never conquered europe like so many of his compatriats.
Ronaldo (R9) would’ve been the greatest player ever if he didn’t have those knee injuries, which sidelined him for years. He was a complete player. He could finish, assist, dribble and was very strong and fast. He redefined the number 9 role by dropping down the midfield to collect the ball and confused defenders rather than wait for the ball up top like most strikers of that era.
My list is based on my perception of DEMONSTRATED TALENT. It's not about stats nor number of trophies. This is a top 5 of the "best" players as those who i consider to have shown the most talent. A lot o things can enter in a discussion of "who was the best". To me, the best is always that guy who does stuff that no other can do and gathers universal respect of his peers. This being said: 1. Maradona probably was the most technically gifted player in history but he was a cocaine addict. He was so good that he took average teams to the pinnacle of football and changed the game forever. Much of the mystique of the n10 jersey comes from him. IMO he was the best player that ever lived as much of what Pele has done was in the 60's against amateurs in the Brazilian league. Pele was overrated as fuck and more like a media product for being FIFA good boy (unlike Maradona who spent his life accusing FIFA of corruption and hanging out with Che Guevara and Fidel Castro). 2. Ronaldo was the best player that i saw in modern times. Bare in mind that he had 3 CAREER ENDING INJURIES where he snapped his knee ligaments. And yet, 2 of those times, he still came back to be the best of the world despite having lost most of his speed and explosion. I firmly believe that Ronaldo would have became the greatest of all times without a doubt has he was merely 22 when he had his first injury. And please remember that Ronaldo played in an era where guys like Zidane, Figo, Rivaldo, Beckam, Ronaldinho and so many otheres where at their prime. Still... No one came close for as long as his body held out. 3/4. Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi in no particular order. They are both still writing their stories and have had MUCH better careers than Maradona and Ronaldo. But to me they never had the unbelievable irreverence mystique of Maradona (who unlike Messi brought Argentina to glory while he has been failing miserably every attempt) nor the universal acceptance that Ronaldo had at that time. Ronaldo was considered by EVERYONE the best player they ever saw in their lives. There was no competition possible. He was called the phenomenon for a reason. He changed the way forwards play for a reason. He had the power of Cristiano while retaining the techinque of Messi. 5. I will say Ronaldinho because he was the only one with the kind of technical ability and magic that we can compare to Maradona. His talent was absolutely out of the charts and he own the world for a few years up until he started to pay more attention to partying than the rest. It's comprehensible for a Brazilian that, after the reign of Ronaldo and Zidane, and before Messi and CR, was the absolute nº1 with the added advantage to have a pure style of entertainment has we never saw before and since.
This Ronaldo (Ronaldo Luis Nazario de Lima or R9) is the greatest of all time. Without him a lot of the tricks and skills used by the current greats (Messi, C. Ronaldo etc) would not have been considered. Also, R9 suffered 2 cruciate ligament injuries in his career and still came back as good as he was before to win the Balon dor (best player in the world).
(Ronaldo and Ronaldihno were almost like Jordan/scottie pippen of the 90s, they are retired footballers. Old legendary cats) Good to see our American brothers and sistas finally joining the rest of the world to watch football. I'm sure you have seen a lot of comments on this but basically, 1. This #R9 Ronaldo(from Brazil) is retired he played from the mid-90's to early 2000's, one of the greatest players ever.(striker/forward/scorer) 2. His team mate was #R10 Ronaldinho(RonaldEENYO) also Brazilian, it means "mini-ronaldo" basically, both names are a latin version of "Ronald". He was also a great footballer, but known more for his dribbling and entertainment skills.(he was just as lethal as R9, but not as much a scorer(midfielder).Also retired. 3. Cristiano Ronaldo is from portugal and Messi is from Argentina (they are the new cats in football, and the world still debates who is better...)
This Ronaldo had the potential to be the GOAT! but he had a lot of knee injuries. Despite the injuries, he's a 3 time world player of the year, 2 time world champion (country) 1 time world champion (clubs) and a whole lot more
this ronaldo is the best thing anyone has ever seen his knee injury held him from reaching his complete potential and he was still better than anything this world has ever seen
IMO Messi. Not only is he like Kobe where he is a killer as far as shooting one on one but also like magic in regards to his passing ability. "I wear the number 10 Jersey for the US National Team in honour of the Greatest athlete I have ever seen: Messi." - Kobe Bryant This ties up my b-ball comparison.
The reason why so many is named Ronaldo is because Ronaldo is a common name in Brazil. It is their first name, but in Portugese/Brazilian culture it is normal to call someone either by their first name or a nickname. Thats why Ronaldo is called Ronaldo, not Nazario which is his last name. Fenemeno is Portugese for "the phenom", not his name. Ronaldinho is a nickname that means "Little Ronaldo", which comes from his first name which is also Ronaldo. To me, Messi is the best of all time. He is so clinical, so effective. But Ronaldinho/Ronaldo (Fenomeno/R9) is my favorites, as they both had such entertaining ways to play, with lots of skills and tricks Messi usually dont do. Ronaldo Fenomeno was hit with serious knee injuries, and it did ruin his career somewhat. But still a beast, and the things he did at such an early age, even won Ballon d'or at 20 which is the youngest ever. But without the injuries, I think Ronaldo Fenomeno could have been the best of all time.
That's the English pronunciation but it's Ho-nal-gee-nyo and ronaldo is ho- nal-do in Portuguese. It's almost like the r is silent, you can hear the slight bit of r before h sound takes over. I think also has to do with accents tho, the Brazilian Portuguese tends to pronounce it like that tho
@@Ed-sz3wq well... never notice that my name would be considered it. Nice! It is true, our "r" is not very strong when it is only one and in the begining of the word. When we use two rr, like in "carro" - that's car - it is a strong "r"
His career was plagued with injuries and he was still able to win world player of the year 3 times, many believe he would have been the best ever if he wasn't injured so much during his career.
Enjoy seeing you guys reactions . 💯🔥😂 Ya’ll should react to more football/soccer videos. It’s cool that you guys are interested in it & are not skeptical about it like some people. Keep grinding
Messi GOAT ! He's top 10 or even 5 of all time in dribbling, vision, passing, free kick, goalscoring, assists. Also has very good teamwork rate, flair, composure, play-building skills, has super awareness of where the space is for a pass or where he should be... He's also fast, agile, barely ever injured... Messi's just the best. No one is or ever was so good on so many things at once.
Check out great players from 60s 70s 80s & 90s. Most football scholars say Pele, Maradona, Cruyff, Puskas, Eusebio and many others. Others greats from this Ronaldo 's time include Zidane, Michael Laudrup, Romario, Roberto Baggio, Hagi, Dejan Savicevic, and earlier names like Zico (personal favorite), Socretes, Michel Platini, Marco Van Basten and many others. All these players are on Messi and Ronaldo' s level talent wise. This Ronaldo was perhaps the best most dangerous goal scorer in my lifetime. He was too much but injuries hampered his career. We all remember how great he was though and miss him greatly. Imo he is a level above Christiano Ronaldo and Messina he played at a ti. E when things were not in the attackers favor as they are today and he was unstoppable back then! The goat is Pele in history imo!
Ronaldo (R9) was the most lethal striker of his generation (shout out Thierry Henry). Messi is Messi today partly because of Ronaldinho (pronounced Ronald-in-yo). When Ronaldinho was at the peak of his powers Messi was 19/20 years old, they both played at Barca. For Me Ronaldinho will always be number 1, close second would be Zizou. Ronaldinho played the game the right way. With a smile on his face. The first Barcelona player to get a standing ovation from the Bearnabeu. In context that's like a CRIP getting a standing ovation on Bloods territory. Ronaldinho has a world cup trophy to his name too. The greatest Number 10 (playmaker) to ever do it.
This Ronaldo is the original and by many considered the best because most of what you saw was him at 17-19 and he ripped apart teams but he got injured many times and aquired a disease that did not let him lose weight. P.S. this is Zlatan's idol.
and just fyi....the fenomeno stands for 'the phenomenal'.....which speaks volume about his skills and talent and cud even have been the greatest...sad that his playing days were plagued with injuries......i cud go on but thats all for now....love....
It's a miracle that Ronaldo was recognized as a football emperor in the '90s. Never compare it to the present. His fellow player and legends are the only ones who can judge him. Isn't that correct? He is not a player we can evaluate.
In the past. The good players need to demostrate who is the best, winning championships. Now the players are model's and richest, and his passion are sold. Then doesn't need win a cup. Ronaldo say I want to be the best player from the best club of the best league of the world. His.demostrate.in every time he has the ball on his feet. The football's world know as Ronaldo Fenómeno,R9. when nike sign with Michael Jordan. Ronaldo just appear with 21 years and was the first Football's player of nike. and Unique with golden shoes just maked for him.
Ronaldo Brazilian is the best easily, problem is most fans today are youngsters who never saw Ronaldo at his peak during PSV, Barcelona and Inter Milan days
I agree by the time he went to Madrid , a.c. Milan and coriinthians his injuries took a toll on him ....:(
I saw Ronaldo in Eindhoven and Amsterdam and Kerkrade when he played for PSV he was something else.. and this after Romario
@@beejohn1016 he was still the best at real lol! Thats how good he was
I always say if he didnt get injured he would be the best ever
Brazil Ronaldo is the greatest he started that style of play Footballers still mimic his moves till this day
please... you don't know Garrincha?
Facts
Vicious Khan not really pele was the one that started this kind of playing
that is true bro!
I hate to disagree with you on this. You should watch the video "Pélé, he did it 50 years ago " to see where the move actually originated from
*This Ronaldo #R9 aka Fenomeno was the 1st one, then came Ronaldinho (Ro-nal-di-neo), then Cristiano Ronaldo #CR7.
*Ronaldo #R9 and Ronaldinho are both from Brazil, Cristiano Ronaldo #CR7 is from Portugal.
*It's like basketball, the era was more of the defining point. Jordan era will always be considered the tough, intense, physical and more exciting era,
Similar to Ronaldo #R9 he will be the Jordan of football, facing defenders head on and traumatizing them, while Ronaldinho is like Kobe, and Cristiano Ronaldo #CR7 is LeBron, he is of the new era.
*In terms of accolades and accomplishment. Ronaldo #R9 and Ronaldinho both are world cup winners which is the greatest of any sports medal, Cristiano Ronaldo #CR7 is not, on the hand Cristiano Ronaldo #CR7 have won 5 Uefa Champions League, Ronaldo #R9 never won it during his career. World cup is nationality based and Uefa Champions League is club based, and it is the highest club football medal.
You can Wikipedia both of them for more intricate details, but if ask any true football head they'll tell you Ronaldo #R9 was the complete footballer, Cristiano Ronaldo #CR7 and Messi broke all the records but never won the world cup.
MUCH LOVE!!!
🇧🇷✨
Yeah bruh Ronaldo #R9 and Dinho #R10 were the two greatest naturally gifted players I've ever seen #Facts
The Fenemino could of been the greatest of all time had it not been for injuries.
Great points your right on noone maybe messi can compare to guys pulling you trying to keep you from moving but R9 will always be the greatest at making best defenders of that era look weak he was my inspiration for playing football n I loved wearing my #9 jersey in honor of the greatest soccer player to ever live
uthman usman For sure Ronaldo is the GOAT - even with injuries he still doing unbelivible things ! Shotout from Brazil ! We love you, guys
I've been waiting for this. He's the original Ronaldo.
Man stop disrespecting cr7 man 😑 just call him brazillian ronaldo
nope i like cr7,but fact is he was one of the first when not the first who plaxed this style of soccer ,so he is the original ronaldo ;)
The original, the best. He appeared on The Simpsons. Wait, CR7 too..
But R9 is the Best.
Dimas Brilian Haekal nah CR7 disrecpet Ronaldo with his name, R9 is the best of all times! But new generations just talk about marketing clout between Messi & Ronaldo and forget the real GOAT, yes sir R9 is the GOAT and all in south america knew it! Salutes from Colombia.
@@rodrigoduartesantana4094 no cr7
He was like an Eagle
*Speed
*Power
*Accuracy
His feet movement was faster than a boxer, he was the most dangerous striker in the D box, in one by one position he was the best.....
O man, i am just out of my words
Hands down, El Phenomeno.
This was the original Ronaldo. Ronaldinho got his name because he was originally called Ronaldo but there was already this one so he got nicknamed Ronaldinho which means "Little Ronaldo"
And Cristiano because his mom liked Ronald Reagan.
Actually Ronaldinho is just a nickname his real name is Ronaldo de Assis Moreira he was called Ronaldinho Gaucho due to the area he was from..Incidentally Ronaldo R9 was in fact called Ronaldinho in the Beginning of his playing career as there was another Ronaldo playing at that time by the name of Ronaldo Guiaro who was a Centre Back...Ronaldinho literally means little Ronaldo
Facts
Nah his dad liked Ronald Reagan
@@DanialFiasco oh shut so Ronaldo from Brazil was also called Ronaldinho
To me Ronaldo, “the phenomenon”, is the best. He influenced a whole generation of footballers, and his story is great: in 99 he suffered a knee injury that made him stop for 5 months, in 00 he suffered another injury in the same knee that stopped his career for 15 months, he recovered and in 02 he conquered the world cup and the ballon d’or. The rest of his career is also great but that recovery was epic.
I don't think this video makes justice for what Ronaldo was as a player.
True that
Brazilian Ronaldo was the best ever
Colin Atkins 👑
Loved to see Ronaldo play, I was there when he made his debut in Europe (Vitesse-PSV and many games after that) but he is not even in the top 5 of best ever imo, top 10 ... maybe.
1. Cruijff
2 (or 3). Messi.
3 (or 2). c-Ronaldo
4. Maradonna
5. Garrincha
6. Bergkamp.
7. Romario
8. Zidane
9. Best
10. Ronaldinho or Ronaldo
Which Brazilian Ronaldo
Cruijff better than Ronaldo Fenomeno?! Are you drunk?
Who is Bergkamp and Best in football history?
His kit, his trainers, his number 9, his pace, control, flare, his vision, infinite skill, his tenacity in charging at the box will remain in my memories for life, he was the complete striker and the best to ever do it. I love diego maradonna but the game evolved, with centre backs like nesta and cannavaro.
A pele would get man marked and bounced off by athelico madrids giminez and godin. It’s a fact.
The R9 ronaldo is timeless, he would dominate any era. In terms of individual success Messi and CR7 are the best. Diego Maradonna was my personal favourite but if we’re talking ability and talent, R9 and Zidane are the best ever.
Thank you R9 it’s because of you I love this game.
3 bolas de ouro

Pra mim o gaucho é melhor R10 mano, mas é legal ver os gringo admirando nosso futebol.
The best!: Ronaldo "El Fenómeno" Saludos de un Venezolano en el exilio.
Saludos de Brasil
Ronaldo fenomeno is the best because he was gifted from the start , he was special , one of those that you only get a few in a generation. Zidane said it himself , Ronaldo was the best he has ever seen , he always saw something new from him every time they trained together in Real Madrid.
This is the most skillfull striker ever, speed, technique, killer instinct. If he wasnt forced to end his career he would be the best ever.
This is the original Ronaldo #9 best striker ever...
This man is the best footballer to walk this earth. And what he meant to Brazilian kids. Also Ronaldinho.
You were right about him getting leg injuries he was too fast and powerful for many aggressive defenders back in the 90s and they just were hounding on him and he hurt his knee on many occasions and it changed him forever still one of the greatest but without the injuries he would’ve been a whole other beast ... it’s a shame . So young
Ronaldo Luís Nazário de Lima, commonly known as Ronaldo, is a Brazilian retired professional footballer who played as a striker. Popularly dubbed O Fenômeno, he is widely considered to be one of the greatest football players of all time
Ronaldo #9 because he was more physical in the field and 2nd will Ronaldinho because the man was a wizard with skills and the way he made plays and 3rd Messi because ronaldinho was like his teacher when they were playing together in barcelona 🤘
kevin salgado Messi the goat
Ronaldinho was never his teacher. He Said it himself that He didnt teach him anything Messi already had it all He Just Made sure Messi felt comfortable because He was shy and helped him to adapt. If you Look at Messis Videos when He was Young He plays exactly the same as today so what did he teach him? They both have different playing Style. I Rest my Case. Messi is the greatest of all time even Ronaldinho Said it himself just 4 days ago Look it up
7:26 Easy. Messi and CR7 are among the greatest, legends of the game. But what separates Ronaldo Fenomeno and Ronaldinho is that they were also big and hard to bring down. Cristiano Ronaldo is big, but he runs tall, so his center of gravity is higher, so he ends up on the ground a lot. Messi runs low to the ground and has great balance, so he's hard to bring down, but he's not as physically strong.
Also, during late 90's and early 2000's defenders were on some gangsta sh*t. They could get away with a lot more than nowadays, before tricksters and superstars became the protected species. You had the likes of Jaap Stam, Sol Campbell, Alessandro Nesta, Paolo Maldini, Gattuso, Keane, Vieira etc. who were stopping people in their tracks by any means possible.
The Ronaldo that scared every defender during the day. He still is a legend
I love that you guys give your honest opinions on everything you guys don’t know much about soccer but still respect the sport or give it a chance most people don’t 👏🏼💯
Viisual Vlogs football
Aleea knows more than a few of the mls commentators...
The term inho in Brazil means little. When Ronaldo Nazario started playing football people used to call him Ronaldinho. Then r10 ( Ronaldo de assis Moreira )appear, he is younger than Ronaldo Nazario so fans started calling him Ronaldinho. Obviously they stop calling Ronaldo Nazario -inho. On the other hand Cristiano Ronaldo is from Portugal.
The first and the real one is Ronaldo Nazario R9
THE ONE AND ONLY GOAT!
mtas pessoas pensavam q ele nunca ia mais jogar por causa da sua lesão de 2 anos ,mais Ronaldo foi para a copa do mundo ganhou ela e foi artilheiro e ainda foi melhor do mundo em apenas 6 meses ,por isso q ele tem esse apelido de fenômeno
React to Eminem and joyner Lucas lucky you
No that shit trash
Why ? Because they are dabbing like fools ?
You guys need to react to some of that new Eminem album!! I know pops would appreciate the lyricism in this one
he had a derrick rose like career towards the beginning of his career but he recovered from an impossible injury and won the world cup, became ballon d'or winner (mvp) couple of times more and had a devastating career ending injury later. first injury aged 21 2:47 at inter milan, second injury aged 31 2:49 at ac milan. ps how ironic he got injured in the two italian rivals of milan.
Three team sports with flow, Soccer, Basketball, Ice Hockey, flow is when game is always moving, the flow is what makes each player understand what is expected in order to make it all work in concert.

The best of the time for me is Pele, by the way, my sugestion for you is to see the video called pele tribute, very easy to find. But i like a lot this Ronaldo, i think he was the best striker from the 90s until today.
We have great ones, but The Best Player in Brazilian football history is Pelé, he won 3 World Cups for Brazil National Team, 2 World Championships for Santos FC, every sports Journalist agree he was for 11 seasons the best player of the world... He was a complet player, who could play in every offensive position, he had a style was a mix of Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, A Mix of Neymar and Ronaldo Fenomeno, a dribbler + striker... We also had Mané Garrincha, world champion as well, best player of the world, and Romário, Rivelino, Zico, Bebeto, Ronaldo Fenomeno, Rivaldo, Ronaldinho, Robinho, Kaká...
This is when brazil was unstoppable. When they had this roster. Ronaldo, cafu, roberto carlos, kaka, dida, junior,ronaldhino ... they had a team that even club teams wish they had.
Y'all some real ones been binge watching y'alls channel for 2 month great content. There is nothing y'all can do to make this channel better.
El fenomeno "the phenom" was the original and was sooo unstoppable that players kept taking out his knee eventually ending his career.
Minute 2:45 the one of the saddest moments of football history, he never came back the same after that injury.
R9 destructive (nightmare) dribller
Ronaldinho dreamy dribbler
R9 and Ronaldinho moved the ball, while CR7 and messi follow the ball.
Dad and daughter is the best duet that could be. I have a 2 year old daughter and she is the best thing in my life, so keep going with your work.
For Ronaldo, this player is the best striker ever that played football, many consider him as the best player of all time. The injury scene in the video is an iconic moment for all soccer fans because he was injuried in his peek and he was off for three years, some say a non- injured Ronaldo is the best ever by far, and i confirm that. I grew up whatching him and even messi and cr7 (cristiano ronaldo) are below him
Hey, Brazilian here. Congratulations for channel, is amazing ✨💛🇧🇷
ONE of the best ever...i wish more blk & latinos here in the States would realize the beauty and skill of this game...
Sumumba Sobukwe what do you mean latinos are the main ones who play the game in the us
WildStutteringMushroomHead football is like religion for us 🤟🏼 we love it.
People wanna be ignorant and not take 5 mins to understand the beautiful game...their loss
Brazilian Ronaldo (R9) is the OG of the Ronaldos. He is my favourite striker/forward of all time. when he was in his prime, before his second major knee injury, he was unstoppable. He was the first player that was as deadly with his right as he was with his left foot. He could dribble with the best of them, and that speed was ridiculous. Even when he gained a few pounds, and was 'out of shape', he was still too big for defenders to knock away from the ball, as his balance was second to none, and his vision and passing skills were also excellent.
Ronaldo (Portuguese) R7 has proven to be a great forward, although in this era of the game, the physical play is not as crazy as it used to be during the 90s. R7 is an awesome player with excellent speed and size, but he is not the passer that R9 was. I like R7 over R9 in free kicks and heading, but everything else I give it to the OG from Brazil.
Ronaldinho was an attacking midfielder, and never a true forward, so it is hard to compare him to the other two who are forwards. Ronaldinho was, in basketball terms, the best point guard of his generation. R10 (as he is also known) was the most creative passer, and his free kicks are among the best of all time. He was not a speed guy, but was not a slow player, but it needs to be understood that because he played in the middle of the park (as he was a midfielder) the ground he covered was typically in positions where he would need to set his teammates in the attack. R10 just happened to be a killer with his right foot, making him a trailing attacker in the case he advanced into the 18 yard box ready to strike, as he did so many times.
I think that the debate is between R7 and R9 about the best ever, with perhaps R7 winning due to him being able to stay healthy for so long, while R9 may have been the most gifted, but needed to take long periods of time rehabilitating from NASTY knee injuries. Brazil has not been able to find their killer touch in front of goal, as they did when they had R9 taking care of things. Neymar is nice, but he is soft and immature, and so far has not showed the killer mentality that R9 had from the time he was a teenager. Brazil needs a new saviour, and it is not Neymar. As far as R7, Portugal will miss him, because he has been everything to them, and easily their best footballer of all time. Eusebio (another Portuguese legend) was awesome, but R7 took the Portuguese game to levels they have never seen it played.
My heart says R9, but my brain is saying that R7 because of his ability to stay healthy. R10 was the most entertaining, but that is about it.
This video is all about the greatest player.. So undoubtedly R9.. His speed, skills & dribbling is unremarkable & r7 is good but he is not enough abilities to stand near in R9..
Marco Van Basten before Ronaldo was the first deadly with left and right.
It's true that Ronaldo didn't work as hard as Cristiano is doing right now (because he didn't have to) but some things, like the disorder Ronaldo had, are just written in your DNA and can't be changed. I do agree on the heading part. Of course Cristiano has scored more freekicks but that's because he took more. Ronaldo didn't take a lot of freekicks because he usually had specialists in his team (when he played for Real Madrid for example) I wished that we could see the ratio's and other statistics of them.
I still don't know why Ronaldo only has 81 passing
I respect your point of view but you cannot compare R9 to R7 and say he was better at free kicks and heading and therefore better...R9 was a beast at free kicks and as to heading he never really needed to head the ball when he could take on 6 payers and score while R7 always needs to be set up by his teammates. I do not share the sentiment
"Fenomeno" isn't his actual name its his nickname meaning "phenomenal"
Football is divided into 2 era:
Before Ronaldo
After Ronaldo
Yeah, as others have said Ronaldinho basically means "little Ronaldo" in Portuguese and he was given that name because Ronaldo (the guy in this video) was already a massive household name in Brazil and the world. Ronaldinho is only a couple of years younger, so they played in the same era, but Ronaldo was already making waves by the time he was 19-20 years old.
Brazil all over the place, more one of our legends!
So cool you and your daughter doing these. Thought I'd be the same way with my lil girl. She disowned me for some reason from her mom. U guys is awsome
O melhor atacante de todos os tempos do futebol mudial .
Unfortunaly his knee was destroyed, one of the saddest moments in football history, to See Ronaldo crying on the ground 😞
Hard to pick my number one Football / Soccer Player of all time - they all are so different 😀 I love them all 😀
If you want to know something interesting about Ronaldo I'll tell you one story. He was injured of his right knee several times (crossed ligament problems)one of those he was injured during 6 months, and he came back in the Italian Cup final and 30 minutes after getting into the field... he got injured from the other knee, but this time the injury wasn't so easy, he had broken the tendon of the rotula, a complete fracture.
it took him 2 years to recover and when he came back (considering the type of injury it was a miracle that he could even walk) he won his second World Cup and after that he signed with Real Madrid and he won practically everything.
Phenomenon!!
Thank you guys for doing this , this is my hero ❤️
Ronaldo's name is Ronaldo Nazário. When he started in Brazil, he was nicknamed Ronaldinho, which is something like Johnie... a diminutive suffix also used for endearment when in names. That because he started at 16 in the professional team of Cruzeiro and at the Brazilian National Team (Ronaldo was World Cup champion in 1994, although he did not play in any match)
When Ronaldo de Assis Moreira appeared at Grêmio, Ronaldo was already a big star worldwide, but was still called Ronaldinho in Brazil.
So Ronaldo de Assis Moreira was called Ronaldinho by people in his southern state and as Ronaldinho Gaúcho in the rest of Brazil, since Gaúcho is a gentilic for people born in that state.
The same with Juninho Paulista and Juninho Pernambucano. Both Paulista and Pernambucano define their states of birth (São Paulo and Pernambuco). While Juninho is a diminutive of JÚNIOR.
Juninho Paulista: Osvaldo Giroldo Júnior
Juninho Pernambucano (best free kicker ever): Antônio Augusto Ribeiro Reis Júnior (a direct translation of that name to english would be "Anthony August Riverside Kings Junior" :))
This Ronaldo os way better than others. He broke the two knees, lost his speed and some dribbling possibilities but continued playing like a legend!
Many say that Pele was the best ever but he played in the 1950's and 60's. Maybe you want to watch him too. He was also Brazilian. And Diego Maradona (Argentinian) was crowned as the best player of the 20th century together with Pele.
Since you mentioned basketball, R9 is the Michael Jordan of Football.
Jordan only compares to Pelé, any other player wouldn't be fair to MJ
This Ronaldo pre pre injury was the best player to play the game of football. He won the World Player of The Year at 20 (youngest winner ever) and then won it again the following year. Then he was struck by injury and didn't play for three whole years. He returned then immediately helped Brazil win the World Cup and finished top goalscorer of the tournament in 2002.
But from the age of 19-21 this guy was on a different planet. The game was at it's defensive best with the best defenders in history and he destroyed them all. That version of him at 19-21 years of age in today's game would score 80 plus a season. Only Messi from the modern era comes close.
And from the old-school era only Pele and Maradona are comparable.
R9 Ronaldo was one of the best ever. If wasn't for his seriously bad knees injuries, i think you could argue he would be the best ever. I was able to grow up watching him and Ronaldinho, and was a joy. But I'm a huge CR7 fan too. Pele was great, and despite the period he played in, he never conquered europe like so many of his compatriats.
this is the OG Ronaldo. the greatest forward ever.
Ronaldo (R9) would’ve been the greatest player ever if he didn’t have those knee injuries, which sidelined him for years. He was a complete player. He could finish, assist, dribble and was very strong and fast. He redefined the number 9 role by dropping down the midfield to collect the ball and confused defenders rather than wait for the ball up top like most strikers of that era.
This Ronaldo is the original and best Ronaldo changed the game!!!
My list is based on my perception of DEMONSTRATED TALENT. It's not about stats nor number of trophies. This is a top 5 of the "best" players as those who i consider to have shown the most talent. A lot o things can enter in a discussion of "who was the best". To me, the best is always that guy who does stuff that no other can do and gathers universal respect of his peers.
This being said:
1. Maradona probably was the most technically gifted player in history but he was a cocaine addict. He was so good that he took average teams to the pinnacle of football and changed the game forever. Much of the mystique of the n10 jersey comes from him. IMO he was the best player that ever lived as much of what Pele has done was in the 60's against amateurs in the Brazilian league. Pele was overrated as fuck and more like a media product for being FIFA good boy (unlike Maradona who spent his life accusing FIFA of corruption and hanging out with Che Guevara and Fidel Castro).
2. Ronaldo was the best player that i saw in modern times. Bare in mind that he had 3 CAREER ENDING INJURIES where he snapped his knee ligaments. And yet, 2 of those times, he still came back to be the best of the world despite having lost most of his speed and explosion. I firmly believe that Ronaldo would have became the greatest of all times without a doubt has he was merely 22 when he had his first injury. And please remember that Ronaldo played in an era where guys like Zidane, Figo, Rivaldo, Beckam, Ronaldinho and so many otheres where at their prime. Still... No one came close for as long as his body held out.
3/4. Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi in no particular order. They are both still writing their stories and have had MUCH better careers than Maradona and Ronaldo. But to me they never had the unbelievable irreverence mystique of Maradona (who unlike Messi brought Argentina to glory while he has been failing miserably every attempt) nor the universal acceptance that Ronaldo had at that time. Ronaldo was considered by EVERYONE the best player they ever saw in their lives. There was no competition possible. He was called the phenomenon for a reason. He changed the way forwards play for a reason. He had the power of Cristiano while retaining the techinque of Messi.
5. I will say Ronaldinho because he was the only one with the kind of technical ability and magic that we can compare to Maradona. His talent was absolutely out of the charts and he own the world for a few years up until he started to pay more attention to partying than the rest. It's comprehensible for a Brazilian that, after the reign of Ronaldo and Zidane, and before Messi and CR, was the absolute nº1 with the added advantage to have a pure style of entertainment has we never saw before and since.
This Ronaldo (Ronaldo Luis Nazario de Lima or R9) is the greatest of all time. Without him a lot of the tricks and skills used by the current greats (Messi, C. Ronaldo etc) would not have been considered. Also, R9 suffered 2 cruciate ligament injuries in his career and still came back as good as he was before to win the Balon dor (best player in the world).
Love your videos. Shout out from Northern Ireland U.K. 🇬🇧
(Ronaldo and Ronaldihno were almost like Jordan/scottie pippen of the 90s, they are retired footballers. Old legendary cats)
Good to see our American brothers and sistas finally joining the rest of the world to watch football. I'm sure you have seen a lot of comments on this but basically,
1. This #R9 Ronaldo(from Brazil) is retired he played from the mid-90's to early 2000's, one of the greatest players ever.(striker/forward/scorer)
2. His team mate was #R10 Ronaldinho(RonaldEENYO) also Brazilian, it means "mini-ronaldo" basically, both names are a latin version of "Ronald". He was also a great footballer, but known more for his dribbling and entertainment skills.(he was just as lethal as R9, but not as much a scorer(midfielder).Also retired.
3. Cristiano Ronaldo is from portugal and Messi is from Argentina (they are the new cats in football, and the world still debates who is better...)
Ohh, your father looks like your brother! Brazilian Ronaldo my favorite player !
The best player of all time
All of them are the best! It depends on people’s personal taste in the style of football they play
He’s the original Ronaldo. He’s second to non when it comes to finishing. Pure class inform of goal, nightmare for any goalkeeper.
Now: C.Ronaldo and L.Messi
In one/two years: Bale, Neymar, Rashford and Mbappe
This Ronaldo had the potential to be the GOAT! but he had a lot of knee injuries. Despite the injuries, he's a 3 time world player of the year, 2 time world champion (country) 1 time world champion (clubs) and a whole lot more
this ronaldo is the best thing anyone has ever seen his knee injury held him from reaching his complete potential and he was still better than anything this world has ever seen
IMO Messi. Not only is he like Kobe where he is a killer as far as shooting one on one but also like magic in regards to his passing ability. "I wear the number 10 Jersey for the US National Team in honour of the Greatest athlete I have ever seen: Messi." - Kobe Bryant
This ties up my b-ball comparison.
The reason why so many is named Ronaldo is because Ronaldo is a common name in Brazil. It is their first name, but in Portugese/Brazilian culture it is normal to call someone either by their first name or a nickname. Thats why Ronaldo is called Ronaldo, not Nazario which is his last name. Fenemeno is Portugese for "the phenom", not his name. Ronaldinho is a nickname that means "Little Ronaldo", which comes from his first name which is also Ronaldo.
To me, Messi is the best of all time. He is so clinical, so effective. But Ronaldinho/Ronaldo (Fenomeno/R9) is my favorites, as they both had such entertaining ways to play, with lots of skills and tricks Messi usually dont do. Ronaldo Fenomeno was hit with serious knee injuries, and it did ruin his career somewhat. But still a beast, and the things he did at such an early age, even won Ballon d'or at 20 which is the youngest ever. But without the injuries, I think Ronaldo Fenomeno could have been the best of all time.
React to Kaka he won the best player of the world award! he beat messi and cristiano ronaldo ! He is a living legend 💯
He was God in his prime
He was the LeBron of soccer I mean he was so big and strong but was also so fast and quick..I used to look up to this guy playing soccer back home
Ronaldinho Is pronounced (Ro•nal•din•yo)
probably (roh-nall-din-yoh) for americans to understand
That's the English pronunciation but it's Ho-nal-gee-nyo and ronaldo is ho- nal-do in Portuguese. It's almost like the r is silent, you can hear the slight bit of r before h sound takes over. I think also has to do with accents tho, the Brazilian Portuguese tends to pronounce it like that tho
@@Ed-sz3wq nah bru , a'int no silent "r" , its just RO-NAL-DO or RO-NAL-DI "sounds like the letter D" - NHO " its not nyo but the sound is similar"
its not just ro-nal-do... go watch the interview with R9 and ronaldinho. There is an r but the way they say is almost like the r isnt there.
@@Ed-sz3wq well... never notice that my name would be considered it. Nice! It is true, our "r" is not very strong when it is only one and in the begining of the word. When we use two rr, like in "carro" - that's car - it is a strong "r"
His career was plagued with injuries and he was still able to win world player of the year 3 times, many believe he would have been the best ever if he wasn't injured so much during his career.
Robinho também foi um craque que merece ser lembrado
cool dad and great reaction guys
greeting from saudi arabia
Enjoy seeing you guys reactions . 💯🔥😂
Ya’ll should react to more football/soccer videos.
It’s cool that you guys are interested in it & are not skeptical about it like some people.
Keep grinding
Messi GOAT !
He's top 10 or even 5 of all time in dribbling, vision, passing, free kick, goalscoring, assists. Also has very good teamwork rate, flair, composure, play-building skills, has super awareness of where the space is for a pass or where he should be... He's also fast, agile, barely ever injured...
Messi's just the best. No one is or ever was so good on so many things at once.
Ronaldo (CR7) is the best ever, pure hard work and determination, greatest athlete ever
Check out great players from 60s 70s 80s & 90s. Most football scholars say Pele, Maradona, Cruyff, Puskas, Eusebio and many others. Others greats from this Ronaldo 's time include Zidane, Michael Laudrup, Romario, Roberto Baggio, Hagi, Dejan Savicevic, and earlier names like Zico (personal favorite), Socretes, Michel Platini, Marco Van Basten and many others. All these players are on Messi and Ronaldo' s level talent wise. This Ronaldo was perhaps the best most dangerous goal scorer in my lifetime. He was too much but injuries hampered his career. We all remember how great he was though and miss him greatly. Imo he is a level above Christiano Ronaldo and Messina he played at a ti. E when things were not in the attackers favor as they are today and he was unstoppable back then! The goat is Pele in history imo!
The depreciation in their faces. Yall really don't know how great he was. A highlights video doesn't even show how great he was.
y'all should react to R9 vs R10 ( Ronaldo vs Ronaldinho)
thats so cool. cheers from Brazil my north american brothers
I never seen any player juke goalies like center and fullbacks so sick.
React to Zero Doubt Me, the dude is insane! Or shot down, or complex. All are amazing
React to R10 vs R9 ( Skills battle between Ronaldinho & Ronaldo )
Ronaldo El fenomeno is to football as Roger Federer is to tennis.....just beautiful to watc!!!!!
Give me those Eminem Kamikaze reaction's! I want that shit so bad!
The best is the one you just saw - he's a pioneer and your favorite striker favorite striker.
Ronaldo (R9) was the most lethal striker of his generation (shout out Thierry Henry). Messi is Messi today partly because of Ronaldinho (pronounced Ronald-in-yo). When Ronaldinho was at the peak of his powers Messi was 19/20 years old, they both played at Barca. For Me Ronaldinho will always be number 1, close second would be Zizou. Ronaldinho played the game the right way. With a smile on his face. The first Barcelona player to get a standing ovation from the Bearnabeu. In context that's like a CRIP getting a standing ovation on Bloods territory. Ronaldinho has a world cup trophy to his name too. The greatest Number 10 (playmaker) to ever do it.
This Ronaldo is the original and by many considered the best because most of what you saw was him at 17-19 and he ripped apart teams but he got injured many times and aquired a disease that did not let him lose weight. P.S. this is Zlatan's idol.
and just fyi....the fenomeno stands for 'the phenomenal'.....which speaks volume about his skills and talent and cud even have been the greatest...sad that his playing days were plagued with injuries......i cud go on but thats all for now....love....
IL Fenomeno. The greatest pure forward ever.
Ha ha the way she said fenomeno! It's just phenomenon in Portuguese
It's a miracle that Ronaldo was recognized as a football emperor in the '90s. Never compare it to the present.
His fellow player and legends are the only ones who can judge him. Isn't that correct? He is not a player we can evaluate.
In the past. The good players need to demostrate who is the best, winning championships. Now the players are model's and richest, and his passion are sold. Then doesn't need win a cup. Ronaldo say I want to be the best player from the best club of the best league of the world. His.demostrate.in every time he has the ball on his feet. The football's world know as Ronaldo Fenómeno,R9. when nike sign with Michael Jordan. Ronaldo just appear with 21 years and was the first Football's player of nike. and Unique with golden shoes just maked for him.
React to the new eminem album especially the song "The Ringer" your dad gonna love it
