Forget about Ronaldinho. The guy you really want to see playing is Lionel Messi.

You might be able to find on YouTube the golazo Messi scored last year in the game Barça vs Getafe in the Copa del Rey. Essentially the same gol that Maradona scored in the 1986 World Cup. It's out of this world.

Make sure to take a good look at a Gaudi buildings while in Barcelona. And if you try a real Basque restaurant, the menus might not be written in Castellano, but in Basque.

I remember Argentina bringing him on late in the matches against both Mexico and Serbia/Montenegro in the last World Cup. I think he is a huge talent. I had forgotten that he even played for FC Barcelona.

You know, I have a personal autograph from Pele (Brasil) that I obtained directly from his hand during the half time break of a soccer match while he played for Santos when I was a very young whipper snapper.

Cristiano Ronaldo is better than both of them...

Seriously he dominates in the Premiership which is the hardest league in the world.

I would have said the Scottish League for sheer brutality...

Don't agree with you. In the biggest Champions leage games he disappears. I would take Messi or Kaka over Ronaldo any day.

I agree here, especially as a Man Utd fan, he is the best in the world at the moment, he deserved to win world and european player of the year to me.



Excellent talent.

Excellent talent.
He is a pansy friggin' crybaby.
Not since Maradona have I seen such a *****.
His performance against England in the last World Cup should have had him hide his face for years to come.
If he would stick to his skills he would have my utmost respect, as they are dazzling, but his onfield antics within 10 yards of any tackle are disgraceful.

I disagree, the Premiership is the hardest league in the world while the Spanish is the best. Messi is a better player that Ronaldo, he is faster with the ball, better on one one and has better technique (they are equally dangerous in front of the goal). Ronaldo on the other hand is better in the areal game and on free kicks.

Sorry, back to Blu-ray...

Cristiano Ronaldo is a very flamboyant player and I'm sure he'll make Player of the Year when he's older. They had to give the award to someone who won the Champions League and proved essential for his team throughout the past seasons.

Well take it from an England fan (a very bitter one at that), Ronaldo is the world's best player, seriously. No one even comes close, not Messi, not Ronaldinho, not even our own stars like Wayne Rooney or Steven Gerrard. I hate to say it, but on Sunday he will take Spurs to the cleaners and pick apart our defence like it doesn't exist, he always does.

Could we perhaps set up a separate soccer thread?

Good idea, I'll test out my moderating skills...

Edit: How's that?
