Ronaldo was phenomenal. I remember as a kid, watching one of the 2002 World Cup games (Brazil vs Turkey, semifinals). A hard game, and suddenly he gets the ball and carries it from midfield to close the area and shoots it in a fantastic way. One of the most brautiful goals I’ve ever seen.
Keep in mind this was a shell of what was prime Ronaldo. And still he dominated the WC.
Pato left Brazil with only 27 official games, but he scored 12 goals and had 1 assist, all of that before turning 18. Unfortunately his career wasn’t what we expected, but his first professional years are also really impressive.
I heard cafu talking about him and he was so impressed with him. Maldini and him took turns marking him in training.
Chelsea legend.
I remember milan paying 25 mil for pato at 17y old or smth like that
I miss pato
Neymar looks so different in that picture if I didnt know it was him i would not have recognized him
That is why he is still called in Brazil “menino Ney” or Kid Ney.
R9 is the best no.9 in history. simple as that
Top 3 no.9 of all time
1.R9
2.gerd muller
3.Suarez
I remember arguments on r/soccer I had years ago where people told me Gerd was far better than Ronaldo because he scored more goals and that made him a better player.
Zlatan and Shearer on par with Suarez, Bati-gol, Henry and van Basten ahead.
And none of us saw Stefano play but…
Zlatan never did anything in the CL, beautiful goals but his best stats were in the French league
Suarez can’t be top 3 when he has 27 goals in the Champions League.
For all of you who didn’t see Ronaldo play … Man … guy is the best 9 I’ve ever seen. All he missed was being an aerial threat
The only striker I will say was hands down better than Shearer. Ronaldo on form was unplayable. Youths these days just don’t get how good he was.
He never needed the ball in the air.
This, had it not been for his injuries, I think the conversation of worlds all time best, could have been very different.
Endrick is way too raw to be a starting striker for RM. I hope Perez signs someone so we won’t have the same problem we are having now, only one striker in the team, Joselu this season and Endrick in the next one. Endrick should mix Castilla games with some first team appearances.
Still mad they passed up on Kane, would’ve been perfect to allow for Endrick to develop alongside and eventually replace him once he declined.
You have to take into consideration that Endrick barely played in, like, half of these 56 matches. His evolution in the last months have been pretty evident, I think he’ll definitely ruin many defenders’ day when he arrives at Madrid
Endrick so bad lmfaooo
What kind of 17 year old bags almost a goal a game from the very start 😭
What could’ve been
GOAT 9
Il fenomeno :( Why did medicine fail you.
I’d give up CR7 just have have had you at your peak for 5 more years
R9 is the greatest forward ever no question. He had Romario’s technical abilities plus he was fast as a gazelle

For some reason Ronaldo then went to PSV Eindhoven???
