Let me explain why I disagree with you...

The difference between Pirlo, Seedorf and Gattuso and Ronaldinho is that the Ronaldinho is too static. He doesn't move, he just waits for the ball. Look at Gattuso, he runs and runs and runs. Seedorf also does more than Ronaldinho. The first three move more, contribute in defending (are midfielders), while Ronaldinho as a forward, I mean, a FORWARD should not be static at all. Ronaldinho is not a midfielder, not a forward really, he is just someone who needs to be to big focus point or else you better not play him at all. Now we got good players like Ibrahimovic, Ronaldinho won't be the one where it's all about. Ronaldinho: no movement, when receives ball he slows down the attack, doesn't defend... I see some difference.

May I remind everybody that Ronnie won 2 World Player of the Years playing like this... They didn't just give it to him for no reason.
IMO it's the rest of the team that just stand there and wait for him to do something special with the ball that is the problem. Difference is that the Barca midfielders and forwards were always moving and he could take on someone and give a killer ball to someone who was free.
With us, he gets the ball, looks and up and sees no one is on, so even if he does get past a defender there is no one to give a killer pass to so he just plays it simple.
For me, the reason Ronnie is not playing well is because he's not enjoying himself and I don't think he likes the lack of movement from the team.
Playing on the left wing area is his position and he has made a career out of staying there, so I don't think it's him that's the problem.

But he is losing the ball too much at the moment.

Did you really say that? Did you? Comparing THAT Ronaldinho to the Ronaldinho of nowadays is an insult to the game of football. Please, don't make such silly mistakes again. That Ronaldinho could win you the game any moment, however he wanted. This Ronaldinho can barely run at all, let alone win you the match.

I agree except for the last part. He has done that on a couple occasions in the past. But yeah, his best days are long gone.
