Opinion on Cristiano Ronaldo needed.?

Well, on the hot or not, I'll answer with my wife's first comment upon seeing him "Who is that!?!".  My impression, he's easy on the eyes for the ladies.\n\nGood player... no, I say great player.  Very very quick with some fantastic dribbling abilities.  Corners and free kicks appear to be a part of his repotoire as well.\n\nI am not so certain of his crossing, and I have seen some times where his touch and passes have let him down, though I think many times he is trying to do too much.\n\nFrom skills perspective, a fantastic have.\n\nMentally, though, I think he needs to grow (course, being like 20 years old, he has a lot of time ahead of him).  He is unpolished, and he needs to get a touch more build to him.  He is too easy to play physically, and that he tends to go to ground easily means he gets fewer calls then he probably should.\n\nI've also noticed some games he takes himself out of when frustrated or angry, and he has committed some silly retribution penalties that were just foolish.\n\nI expect, no matter where he is, be it Man Utd, or at some point Real or Barca, he will be one of those 2 or 3 guys who just always does something that makes the other team have to wonder how they can defend him.  I'd be awestruck to watch the ball work that he and Ronaldinho could produce - and the fact that Critiano can play right or left only adds to that.\n\nAs things are now, he is on the cusp edge of World Class (and after the world cup, who knows)... and I expect in the next 2 years he will blast himself into that 'elite' status of professional.  If he continues to progress as he has been, I expect he will (sadly) outgrow United in 3 years, likely moving to Spain as I think he'd get too beat up in Italy.

The whole body-language of the man says something is wrong.\nHe is a little over-weight and I do not think 100% fit.\nHe is also a victim of his own publicity as will many great players be that follow. They are built up in the media to be God-like figures and the whole country is depending on them and one bad game later they are shot down badly.This must be very demoralising to the self-confidence.\nI also feel that he does not totally compliment the style of play of Brazil at the moment with their great attacking midfielders; Ronaldinho and Kaka "invading his space"

We cannot judge. Cristiano is an extremely promising player, he is only 2, though Ronaldo is older and his good days have passed. We don't know what cristiano is going to do

I think he is the best  GK now. Not to mention the most expensive one. \nthe ppl who say he is not the best r having a serious problem.

do you really think that ronaldo has an email address that he will actually answer???  if you email him and actually get an answer, its from someone working for him. I say just leave the guy alone, hes busy enough without a bunch of papparazzi bugging him all the time

far much better than the first of their games...\nRonaldinho was Ok, didnt give his all....\nOverall.. a good team effort...\nBut as before... Ronaldo is Finished... he must go back to the Amazon.. buy a big boat and start fishing... may be then he can lose some weight in the hot and humid rain forest...

Not at all.\nI totally agree with his tactics.\nRonnie is not as good as many other Brazilians at the moment, but on form he is brilliant. There are others such as Diego and Kaka who are better than him at the moment and deserve to play. Ronnie is not playing well at the moment, and his exclusion from the team might make him wake up and get back on form and thus rejoin. Players are not chosen to represent their country for their reputations, but rather their form, and he is not in that bracket currently.

I'll say why not, he's a good player.\nI do fancy him, he's my type of men.\nlove England!!!\nBut he definitely makes the game MORE interesting!

i wouldnt say that necessarily, i think the other players on his team need to learn how to play WITH him, rather than BEHIND him. just chemistry and time.

Total midfielder! Hardcore player!! He is coming of age. n my opinion, i think he is learning alot from Claude Makelele on how to be a defensive midfieder while still possessing his unique attacking sting. He is a great player.

Sadly one of my favorites Ronaldihno. There have only been small glimmers of his brilliance thus far. Hope he steps up in the quarter finals

Other than one decent shot that Ronaldo took, he was looking pretty sorry. I don't think I saw him run (or jog for that matter) once. He even walked on the field late after halftime. That's just lame. You're playing in the World Cup, at least act like you're excited to be there. That's one good thing about the Brazilian team they play with such enthusiasm. He doesn't have it so he should cheer his team from the bench. Robinho should start in his place.

He is kinda overrated. He is a very good central midfielder. He can score goals, he can create pretty well, and his range is very good. \n\nBut I do agree that almost every show or a lot of fans judge him as the greatest. The hype begins to cloud the real player.

Ha ha ha. Nice story. You have a talent for story-writing, do you know that? Anyway, Ronaldo will always be Ronaldo. Nobody can stripped him of his honor of being called "one of the greatest." His record will speak for himself. He may be down now, perhaps because of age (?), but in due time he'll deliver again. The Brazilian team has a deep bench. With Ronaldinhio, they might have a repeat this year. Ronaldo's talent and energy is one of a kind, thus, i believe he will make a great comeback. :D

Ronaldo is my favorite player because of his amazing ability to find the back of the net. I bet he's arrogant and self-absorbed off the field as are  too many stars.

Kaka has been the driving force behind this brazil team throughout this world cup campaign.Ronalda is a proven goalscorer but still needs to get back into shape.Ronaldinho's performance has not been all that satisfactory.Kaka's the best.
