You know, the one that should be rightfully ours, instead of Barcelona and their doped up heroes. lolzy
Now we know why he uses so much gel, he doesn't want to end up looking like Fellani...
He he love the afro.
He'd look really weird without gel now. He's condemned to use it for the rest of his life.
Even when he goes bald.
From Quaresma's facebook:
Andd again..
Cristiano Ronaldo is surely the greatest player ever to wear a Madrid shirt.
Oooooh Di Stefano would say otherwise. I haven't had the fortune of seeing much footage of him, nor many on this forum, but his record is incredible.
Players & athletes get better and better as time progress. I have no doubt Di Stefano was the best Real Madrid player during his time, but if you compare all eras, Cristiano Ronaldo is no doubt the greatest ever. It's like comparing a 100m record holder who ran 10.0 seconds in the 50s, and Usain Bolt who now runs 9.58 seconds. Both were fantastic during their times, but Bolt's time is better.
Aye but that's why you take context into these things. It's why Jesse Owens will be regarded as a better athlete than most modern sprinters despite them having faster times.
Yes, but at the end of the day the record was broken. 50 or 100 years from now, there will probably be new stars who will be better than Messi or Ronaldo.
What exactly is your point? I'm not sure I get it and how it relates to football in any way.
Are you saying that Ronaldo is a better athlete than Di Stefano? If so, why does it matter?
Not sure what you mean here, I know there will.
I was just saying that the fact Di Stefano wouldn't be as dominant in the current game isn't a reason to put him behind Ronaldo, you look at these things in context and how they performed at the time.
Disagree with that line of thought. You have to compare the players taking into account the differencing circumstances.
Players tend not to run just in straight lines. How about pitches, sports equipment and the game being a non contact sport? Different eras.
Di Stefano (86) married his 36 year old nurse/girlfriend this year. Lets see if Ronaldo can match that.
Gone off injured, managed to sneak a goal in before though of course.
He's only copying Messi because he's injured.
Bloody hell, some news
It still is the same game. Just shows how the overall game has improved!
Shes 36 Costa Rican, a lawyer, notary, FIFA licensed soccer manager and a sports journalist. This must have been the easy money of all that!
Ronaldo is already on the case.
He's still scoring!
But i'll bet it takes him four or five go's before he gets it in, before he would have got it in one.
ahghahahahahahahahahahaha
That's exactly the sound he makes when he comes these days
Well at 86, that's more than well I suppose
feck, that's more than me TBH!
Are those blue pills he takes on the doping list?
Anything that gives you an erection at 86 should be marketed widely not banned
If only so the heart doctors can make more money.
I imagine Di Stefano wouldn't. He never has been one for tooting his own horn.
Well with a wife who's 50 years younger, he wouldn't have to.
Sorry Snow - I couldn't stop myself hitting the reply
