I still think Ronaldinho's transfer fee and wages would qualify him as 'overrated'.
I'd have taken 2004-era Nedved over virtually any player in the world. Except Wayne Rooney during that magical fortnight.

transfer fees and wages over-rate loads of players tho, esp. in the PL

bent = 1/2 shevchenko
― darraghmac, Tuesday, 8 April 2008 16:23 (sixteen years ago) link
1/2 the wages, 1/8 the player
― Tom D., Tuesday, 8 April 2008 16:24 (sixteen years ago) link
4/5 the age.

looks terribly slow this season....robinho, ibrahimovic, pato will become their default front 3, r10 will probably be off to turkey or something

saddest thing since the last brazilian before rivaldo to be the world's best footballer.

peaked in their early 20's, that's pretty sad in just about every way I think.
― cant believe you sb'd me for that (darraghmac), Thursday, 14 October 2010 13:47 (thirteen years ago) link
peaked and fell off hard
― cant believe you sb'd me for that (darraghmac), Thursday, 14 October 2010 13:49 (thirteen years ago) link
hey at least they fucking peaked
― acoleuthic, Thursday, 14 October 2010 13:49 (thirteen years ago) link
also OMG RONALDINHO HE PLAYS WITH A SMILE ON HIS FACE AND SCORES VOLLEYS IN TRAINING OMG OMG OMG OMG
Still the one I'd tell the grandkids about first, regardless of hyperbole or reaction to hyperbole.

agree^^ hard to think of another player who made every game as much his show as ronnie at his peak
― sonderangerbot, Thursday, 14 October 2010 13:55 (thirteen years ago) link
messi is brilliant, and probably more effective but he doesn't have the range of peak ronaldinho- guy could beat you walking and still send you three wrong ways, then hit it from 35 yards. set pieces too.

this is true, but it's part of the reason messi is better
