So, besides his 1 season wonder, why do people rate this mercenary again?

Because prime Ronaldo was the most complete striker in history.

this

that

How was he any different than, lets say, henry or van basten? keep in mind were talking about being 'complete' here

>So, besides his 1 season wonder, why do people rate this mercenary again?

t. Underage

He was better

>2 goals in a world cup final

> 1 match means everything in your career

also, one of those was literally a tap-in, and he missed 3 easy goals before that

fuck off you mong, True Ronaldo was GOAT

Both of those players are great as well, but Ronaldo was just a little better in more aspects.

>Who is Henry

a really depressing and naive one

A player with a better overall career, but still not as complete as prime Ronaldo.

1. Cruyff
2. Prime Ronaldo
3. the rest

Nostalgiafags

He was not a one season wonder, first of all.

And people rate him because the caliber of his talent was on the level of Messi.

Objetively, there is Real Ronaldo and Messi on the top, nobody else.

>mercenary

> he thinks southamericans have any kind sentimental relationship with Oil FC or Sportivo Mafia

lmao tremendo tanito de conurbano

THIS

Lul loyaltyfags btfo

Because - unlike you - he wasn't a system babbie and a choker in the national team. Now go to sleep, it's past bedtime for menlets, Lionel!

Who is Diego Costa

>complete striker

Let's use some real words there buddy

Holy shit. Quality b8 right here. I chuckled la'

his peers also elevated his status

Inter era Ronaldo struck fear all over Italy

too bad he couldn't win bigger trophies like the Champions League

his Dutch days weren't too shabby either but with the HGH and steroids being pumped into him there and if you believe Juve that all the Italian league were doping too, then it probably made his bones brittle as fuck and with his problem with hyperthyroidism it just fucked his shit up hard

Okay Messi

Le 3 straight WC final man
Imagine if his knee didn't give up on him and he didn't struggled with his weight later on.

>t. born in 1999

Hes not even the best Ronaldo

>Two rebuilt knees
>Unreal speed for an overweight man with two mechanical knees
>Partnership with Zidane
>Was the central No. 9 for all teams played for
>Killed Manure that time away in the black Real kit which still gives me boners.

Barca Days - Rapid
Inter Days - Rapid & Skill
Real Days - Skill and Setups
Milan Days - Skills, Setups and Hair

He lost skills and picked others up and developed into a completely different player by the time he was retired, but was still or even better as he got older.

That 2002 world cup was insane, literally had all the pressure put on him and completely delivered.

>his peers also elevated his status
>Inter era Ronaldo struck fear all over Italy

Ronaldo was a one man army for Barca and Inter. His supporting cast was extremely poor at club level pre-Galactico's when compared to the likes of Messi and Cristiano.

If ever there was an example of one man carrying a team by himself, it was Ronaldo in 97/98 with Inter Milan where he had to act as both goalscorer and playmaker. These were the next top scorers that season after him:

>Djorkaeff - 8
>Simeone - 6
>Recoba - 3

Henry was complete also, but his dribbling wasn't as good as Ronaldo's and he didn't have Ronnie's strength and balance either. Also his inability to score in cup finals is a bit of a black mark on his career, while Ronaldo scored in most finals he played in.

The only weakness either of them had really was heading. Well, not really a weakness but probably the least strongest aspect of their game attacking wise.
