    Yes, in a heartbeat.

    Absolute worldclass and he's still got it to an extent. I wouldn't expect him to play 38 x 90 minutes but still.
    Someone changed my title just under my name! Awesome! Now how do I change the title to "Not gonna happen"?

    He is still a good player but his wages would be to high and he is too old, so I wouldn't take him

    Referring of course to his constant partying every night. I thought it was well known that he had a bad attitude and a massive ego.

    Barcelona‘s coach Rijkaard, who for the past 5 or 6 months has criticized him alot although in football it’s the team that wins together and it’s the team that loose together, you cannot really blame only Ronaldinho forBarcelona‘s lack of success for the past season and a half but yeah there is some problem with Ronaldinho’s attitude.

    I read also on the Barcleona forum after Guadiola got sacked to see a reaction from a Barcelona fans point of view that they think he could have been a far better player with a better attitude.

    Still more than capable of reproducing truly special footballing moments. Need I refer people to Santos-Flamengo, the 5-3 game. Ronaldinho was near untouchable. He just needs the motivation.
    The Italian national football team has won the FIFA World Cup 4 times (1934, 1938, 1982, and 2006), trailing only Brazil (with 5). Italy's club sides have won 27 major European trophies, making them the most successful Europian nation in the subject of football.

    The thing is, the club threw back "allegations" regarding his behavior. There's no solid evidence to back this allegation up. Ronaldinho, had every right to sue the club after unpaid wages and bonuses, and just because he chose that approach - I believe Flamengo decided to throw back allegations regarding his conduct and behaviour again this does not prove anything, I can't see no 'terrible attitude.'

    Your over reacting there.

    Someone like Barton is who I'd classify as a player with "terrible attitute" not Ronaldinho's. That's the only point I'm trying to get across... He does not have a perfect attitude, nor does he have a terrible attitude.

    His wage would be more than tenable in shirt sales alone. I'm unlikely to get the home shirt, but if we signed Ronaldinho then I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

    He's a class player who can do things with a ball that we don't have and he won't need pace with a midfield of pacey players around him.

    Fluke or not, Seamo was still dubious with high balls.

    Much as I don't want to see him in an Arsenal shirt, nobody can deny that he's the ideal player to bring on after 70 minutes when we're losing 1-0 - He's a game changer.

    People often forget the brilliance he produced for Milan in his second season too. He was so motivated by the prospect of playing in the 2010 WC and Dunga foolishly overlooked him. With the 2014 WC on the horizon maybe he'll find that motivation again.. especially with it being at Brazil. But this transfer will absolutely never happen.

    Wow, it wasn't THAT long ago. Search up what years he won FIFA WPoTY... 2005 & 2006 off the top of my head. I'd have had him in 2010 after watching his CL performances which were excellent.
