    • Hmm Mbappe is good but can he dribble past defenders like Nesta and Maldini in their prime and the only ways they could stop him is by holding on to R9 jersey or by tackling him from behind ! R9 got tackled many times and it wasn’t issued a yellow card or a free kick and he got up and kept playing and made a gooooaaal. Why. Bc football back then was way tougher and had a lot more competition. No hate towards Messi , cr7 , or , Mbappe but R9 is just better. The media hypes them to be better then they actually are. R9 let his talent speaks for himself.

    • That's right. R9 (OG Ronaldo) uses his skills to actually get past the defender--effective, artistic, creative, spontaneous. R7 uses his to look cool or to impress his fans but it usually doesn't accomplish much. Take for example just look at when r7 does his stepovers, his not in any better position to beat the defender after having done it usually. It's just sorta like a rigid robotic dance to impress thats not functionally integrated into the play. For r9, it's like a flawless dance and a powerful artistic expression.... and yes, it actually helps him get PAST the defender.

R9 had the best peak ever seen in the game, he was the top scorer in holland when the dutch league had the highest UEFA country coefficient, which ranks the collective clubs’ performance of each european leagues. He was also a top scorer in La Liga, which was much stronger than today, and also a top scorer in the HARDEST league EVER (90’s serie A) in the HARDEST and most defensive era in football history (1988-2000, approximately). Back then, the average of goals scored per game was much lower than today, the defenses were paradoxically much better, they played non-defending tactics since occupying spaces wasn’t really a thing as it is today. The offensive and defensive tactics didn’t work in blocks like they do nowadays, there were kilometers of empty spaces between each defender and EVEN SO they managed to concede much less goals than today. CR7 plays is a considerably easier era to be an attacker, scoring 40 goals today is completely different than back in the 90’s.

Yeah you are saying that he dominated in 90’s serie a, but let’s be serious here, 1990-2000 premier league was like 10x harder than the serie a. Ronaldo, at 19 completely dominated there. I don’t expect R9 being the best but surely dominating there. R9 had never saved his team with a hattrick against a professional team ever. While Ronaldo on the other hand, destroyed for example Barcelona in the Champions league and atletico Madrid. And let’s be honest here, Barcelona is a legendary team no doubt. You’re saying like R9 did all that stuff singlehanded while he didn’t. If he didn’t rely on his team he would’ve been nothing. While Ronaldo singlehanded destroys big teams. There no comparison between Ronaldo and R9.

For people to understand, by the mid to late 90s, right around the 1996-1998 , we had a lot of legends playing, some in their prime or others just after or before it; Baggio, Romário, Rivaldo, Zidane, Del Piero, Nedved, Maldini, Figo and others... AND BY THAT TIME NO ONE EVEN QUESTIONED who the best player in the world was, there wasn't even a glimpse of a debate, that was the kind of level this dude was playing at around age 20-21; the thing is he never actually got to hit his prime, his true prime would probably be around the 2002 WC and the years after it with him being fully mature as a player and still having the physical explosion but it never happened sadly. Every single one, some of the greatest ever called him the best player they've ever seen, Buffon, Thuran, Cannavaro, Nesta, Vieri, Batistuta, Maldini, Zidane, hell even Mourinho and Bobby Robson. That's no disrespect to anyone else, just how good it is. In the words of Buffon: ''the fact he's not remembered as the greatest player ever is one of the tragedies in football'' Hell, even Maradona himself (who for me is probably with Pelé and Messi the most talented trio of players ever) said a year ago in a probgram with Ronaldo he always though Ronaldo would have overcome him and Pelé and be the greatest ever if not for the injuries

R9 for one was diagnosed with a hypo Thyroid condition and was unable to treat it properly due to it containing a steroid banned by FIFA. one of the main symptoms is weight gain, then you add all the other injuries also being forced to play due to Brazils sponsorship agreement with nike and yeah you have the tragedy of R9. so yeah this man was never lazy and was an extremely hard worker on the pitch even when he looked fat and out of shape you just have to look at what he did against Argentina whilst looking like he just come from a chinese buffet

  • R9 was the reason I started watching football. Saw him play live in Milan. I might be subjective, but I think that Cristiano's impact on football was never precedented in terms of popularity and $, while Ronaldo's mark is more inspirational. I have seen many all-time best players (Zidane, Crespo, Eto, Ronaldighno, Zlatan) talk about R9 being the driving force behind their motivation. All of them use the word "beauty" when they talk about Il Fenomeno. So, for me, there will never be someone to top R9

    • The two started playing more or less in the same way despite the fact that the "R9 phenomenon" was always "better" or slightly better, but as the years passed, CR7 changed its way of playing, much more deadly and intelligent to occupy spaces. .... much more decisive than the R9, which sometimes played very well and gave more shows, but it often failed and was not decisive, and teams or players who play football more beautiful for audiences are not always the best teams or better players, football nowadays is much more than that and then the Cr7 surpasses the R9 in everything besides having a career always at the top or at the top. R9 had many ups and downs and that I only remember three players always at the top level until the end of careers. Zidane-Messi-CR7 is an incredible achievement. Neither Maradona or anyone else, has all gone missing years or ups and downs. CR7 is unique I do not say that he is better than Messi but I give him more value because he plays well in any corner of the world or style of play.

For people to understand, by the mid to late 90s, right around the 1996-1998 , we had a lot of legends playing, some in their prime or others just after or before it; Baggio, Romário, Rivaldo, Zidane, Del Piero, Nedved, Maldini, Figo and others... AND BY THAT TIME NO ONE EVEN QUESTIONED who the best player in the world was, there wasn't even a glimpse of a debate, that was the kind of level this dude was playing at around age 20-21; the thing is he never actually got to hit his prime, his true prime would probably be around the 2002 WC and the years after it with him being fully mature as a player and still having the physical explosion but it never happened sadly. Every single one, some of the greatest ever called him the best player they've ever seen, Buffon, Thuran, Cannavaro, Nesta, Vieri, Batistuta, Maldini, Zidane, hell even Mourinho and Bobby Robson. That's no disrespect to anyone else, just how good it is. In the words of Buffon: ''the fact he's not remembered as the greatest player ever is one of the tragedies in football'' Hell, even Maradona himself (who for me is probably with Pelé and Messi the most talented trio of players ever) said a year ago in a probgram with Ronaldo he always though Ronaldo would have overcome him and Pelé and be the greatest ever if not for the injuries
