Did Ronaldinho or Original Ronaldo never get to lift a World Cup? Shame

They both did. But I don't think the original Ronaldo lifted a CL - Confirmed, Original Ronaldo CL flop. Bojan > Ronaldo

 

[Linius]

Are we naming random transfers?

Iniesta to Man City as player-coach.

I recently found out Davids is player/coach at Barnet FC nowadays

It gets confusing when you realize that the original Ronaldo was actually called Ronaldinho when he started playing for Brazil.

Well yea, isn't adding the 'dinho' kind of like a term of endearment? Meaning young or little Ronaldo?

 

[Yen]

The real Ronaldo's son is called Ronald.

Wanyama isn't signing a new contract with Celtic, that's upsetting. Still an age to go on his current one, but probably off in January or the summer.

I hope Celtic at least get a fair price. In a world where young English and Welsh midfielders go for well in excess of £10m.

There was a Ronaldo who played CB for Brazil who went by Ronaldinho as well and I think that made Fatnaldo just go by Ronaldo.. then Ronaldinho Gaucho came along and took that name away from the other dude too. I Wiki says there was also a long-serving GK who went by Ronaldo at the time in Brazil but he didn't get much national team love (1 cap).

In the last couple of days we have heard and read stories linking former director of football Txiki Beguiristain and Manchester City. In fact, nothing new has happened regarding that issue for more than a week. A fact: Txiki met recently City chief executive Ferran Soriano for lunch in Barcelona. Conversations about City took place. It is very likely that Txiki ends up in England and the decision will be taken before Christmas. But Spurs has to be heard to. Will Txiki go to England? I'm pretty sure he will. We will see what club.

I don't want him to go to Man. City

City seem like such the anti-Pep of clubs.

His valuation has been quoted as £10m since the summer when City and United (and maybe Liverpool? One other club as I recall) were apparently interested. I guess we'll see what happens between now and then.

Yeah, I mentioned it last night. Keeping my fingers crossed! Even if it doesn't lead to Pep, I know Txiki was instrumental in many facets of Barcelona's success. He'd be great at getting the academy up and running effectively.

If City actually sign Jovetic, which of their strikers will they sell to accommodate him? Dzeko or Balotelli?

Let's hope Dzeko.

He'll do very well in the Premier League. He's looked really classy every time I've watched him play.

Obviously inflating it a bit, but I would honestly only want him to go if it was above £15m and towards £20m. That's unheard of in Scottish football though. He'll go for £4m and we'll have to like it.

Shows what the Champions League can do for a player (and club)! I think you're right in that he'd probably go closer to £15m (at least) anyway if multiple teams remained interested.

I'd laugh my bollocks off if Neymar flops against non South American opposition.

I won't be laughing. We can't really afford any more flops after Jo and Co.

Jelavic was the best striker in the league, and he only went for £7m.

Rangers needed the money a bit more than Celtic do. Everton probably didn't even end up paying half that, either.

Dutch is awesome, but it's a tough language to learn for foreigners. Though Danish footballers don't seem to have many troubles with our language :lol

Have you guys seen this classic Van Gaal speech in Dutch? This is real poetry.

Van Gaal will always be the 'Siempre negatifo, nunca positifo' guy in Spain.

Yeah it's certainly no French :lol

I understand that some consonants will make it sound like someone choking on a chainsaw. At least we can still make fun of Germans because they sounds like they're always yelling.

Yeah it's really surprising to hear Erikssen and the like give full interviews in Dutch. Mad props. Kenneth Pérez' Dutch is amazing, almost completely flawless.

Wooden should learn Dutch.

I love it how he always tries to speak the language of the country he's in. Great speeches.
