Ronaldinho to Chelsea, Daniel Alves to Barcelona.

What the hell is this? Are they joking with the entire Europe or what? I really hope so... (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

[PS: I just posted this in the Milan NEWS section because it talks about 10R]

Not really Ash ... CR would be great at futsal, he is undoubtedly a star in the EPL. He has brilliant ball control and is one of the best assist players in the game. SAF has brought out the best in him.

Yet, when you compare CR and R10 .. It is obvious that tricks are part of their game and that they both share the same quality, in that they are unique in their style of play. But the difference is that to me, R10 is a much more effective team player; an eg. would be in the CL when we faced Barca at San Siro and when we faced United at San Siro, R10 played more for the team, while CR tried to go for his usual runs and therefor it was much easier to close him down! Now I might be biased in this analysis, but the fact remains that R10 has much more to offer than CR on a football pitch.

Ok, one of the biggest effects for a team is to assist right, so what makes Ronaldinho far more effective? Ronaldo is United at the moment, look at how they are playing at the moment without him. Yes I know Rooney's not playing either but I don't rate that guy any more than I do Saha. Ronaldo is United, just as Kaka is Milan.

If Ronaldo plays bad United play bad, just look at our 3-0 demolition of them at the San Siro, once we stopped him the game was won. Roma couldn't stop him and they went to hammer them 7-1, freak result maybe but I'm sure if Ronaldo wasn't in that team it would have been a lot different.

Don't get me wrong I don't think Ronaldinho is rubbish maybe a bit overly hyped but certainly not a bad player. I just don't get how these 'meaningless tricks' as they are described on Ronaldo can really be said now, not after last season anyway! He has the end product something he lacked for his first few seasons at Old Trafford. Plus there's still the fact that Ronaldo is 22, Ronaldinho is 27...
