R9 is like Anakin skywalker, you never got to see his full potentional before injury, still good as hell post injury, and you always wonder how good he would've been without it

futbol wrote:R9 was a marketing machine like Neymar, he was forced to play a WC final through injury because Nike owned him. That's why you all rate him so highly. The marketing machinery surrounding him was insane. And once Perez made him a "Galactico", the rest was history. R9 was the very first Justin Bieber of football.

I was like 12 years old, didn't follow football at all except international tournaments yet still desperately wanted a Ronaldo jersey. Why? Because Nike indoctrinated me back then when I was a kid. But once I grew up I saw the cold truth. If you objectively look at R9's career, it was actually nothing special. He was evidently a lazy guy who didn't train well (watch his documentary on YouTube, Zagallo explains this very well), got fat by the time he was 28 and failed to lead any of his club sides to any major trophy. His WC 2002 was one of the most overrated of all time. Tap-ins against terrible opposition after terrible opposition. Hardly better than what Klose did for Germany all those years, except Klose didn't play alongside Ronaldinho, Rivaldo, Kaka etc. There is a reason why Brazilians didn't even rate that team before the tournament and Pelé predicted they would go out in the group stages. A whole lot of terrible opponents (Turkey and South Korea in the semi-finals of the World Cup ) and a lot of luck (Ronaldinho's intended cross ending up in the net, Kahn who was the MVP of the tournament dropping the ball, Rivaldo's playacting cheating Turkey out of the tournament) led to Brazil doing a Greece even before Greece did a Greece.

So would I take a lazy, fat, marketing-hyped Brazilian who would be a complete liability in the modern game or would I take the one and only champion of the people? Very easy choice. I don't expect you to agree with me. The majority of mankind are sheep, there are only a few who are enlightened.

You don't believe in half measures do you? Laughing

futbol is all in

Goddam :bow:

We praise Zlatan and Suarez for what CR has been doing for years. Meanwhile, the other day people will attack CR because he scores goals Laughing

by titosantill Sun May 22, 2016 4:18 pm

@valkyrja, good point, nobody says zlatan or suarez took too many shots or "didn't allow" their teammate score etc... still an impressive feat especially when you win a title alongside it, which is definitely more important

by zizzle Sun May 22, 2016 5:53 pm

Because Zlatan isnt known for being prolific despite being the best in the world at what he does. Suarez outscoring Messi is also a feat.

plus CR's stat-padding is nothing new :coffee:

Surpassing prime R9, officially confirmed.

Seasonal scoring records (club+nt)

63 Ronaldo 96-97
60 Suarez 15-16

Suarez can still surpass Ronaldo, if he gets enough tapins in Copa America.

Zlatan (56) also has still chance to enter 60 goals club.
