Ronaldinho is the most naturally gifted footballer of all time and my favourite ever player to watch at his peak.
Have never seen anyone be so far ahead of his peers in terms of ability for those couple of seasons.
Like he was playing a different game to everyone else. He had fun doing it too!
He seemed to have a relaxed, smiley, laid back party attitude which stopped him from extending his peak and becoming a GOAT contender but that was all part of the mystique for me.
Ronaldinho alone was worth tuning in to a game and was guaranteed to produce at least one moment of brilliance every single match which just left me in awe.
Not the most consistent, productive or efficient player but for pure gob smackingly magical footballing moments, no one else comes close.
No other player has left me speechless in that way.
He wasn’t the greatest footballer ever though. Cristiano, Messi, Maradona, Cruyff and a few others were greater.
It’s a shame about the injuries to Brazilian Ronaldo though, El Fenomeno was an extra-terrestrial and would have topped the list in both categories had he remained healthy
