MUFC Champions 2006/2007: Where will the goals com
A little conversation over at the United forum about Ronaldinho, i watch french football when i can and the guy seems immense, very pacey and tricky and what not.
My question being, how do you think he'd fit into the United set up?
Is his personal life to complicated for fergie to like, will he fit into the premeirship?, or will he be like veron, brilliant player, but needs time on the ball and consequently a couple of years to adapt.
Your views, si vous plais..
 
According to Elfie (whose opinion I value immensely), Ronaldinhio is a very talented footballer but has a social life that's similar to Yorkies and as such, she doesn't believe that he'd be a good fit with SAF.

The Guy IMO is the most talented player in the world, he can do stuff with the ball, most players in the world can only dream of doing. But as stated he has a bad aa attitude, not the player we need here, and who is gonna move over for him. If we buy any1 in my opnion it should be Mexes, Cisee and those two from sporting
 
the quality is there in Ronaldinho there is no doubt about this, he prooved this in the world cup by destroying lil ashley cole, rememeber he done the step over and laid it off 2 Rivaldo. Anyway i think he would be great for us, but is he actually any better than what we have? i dont think so, we got scholsey behind ruud and the only let down at the minute in my opinion is Giggs. I dont know if Ronaldinho plays on the left but i would have him instead of giggs even though it pains me to say it.
 
I do watch french football quite frequently. Ronaldinho has still much room for improvement. He has been playing well lately, but something tells me that he's not so consistent. He was injured for 2 months.

Frankly speaking, I see him as a good buy for Man Utd, he'll definitely bring some appreciable depth in our gameplay. The only prob is that, as we all know, british football is quite physical, and I have some doubts whether Ronaldinho will be able to beat players like Campbell, Hyppia etc.

Get him!
