that you're the ONLY ONE who doesnt think C.Ronaldo dives??
There's like 5-6 of us saying he DOES dive...
And coincidentally you're the only Portuguese here...
Again, dood, i LOVE the Portuguese aka Pork CHops, and i can understand the bias.
But REALITY has to set in at some point...
And no, Kaka doesnt have 27 goals this season. But he doesnt play for stats.
As a Milan FAN, I'm not even saying Kaka is more talented, coz he's not (notice the reality-check?? Me being objective??)
---> But i'd take Kaka on my team, which he IS, thank God, over Ronaldo anyday. |
Almost every player dives at some point in his life. Yes, Ronaldo probably does it more then Kaka, but then Ronaldo also gets fouled a lot more then Kaka does. You have to remember that in the English game skill players like Ronaldo have to deal with far more physical challenges then players in the Italian or Spanish leagues where defenders back off skill players. Does that justify Ronaldo's antics ? No - it doesn't. But when you track his history of diving, you'll realize that he's been diving far less now, then he did 3,4 years ago. Diving it seems is taught to Portugese players at a young age, and it's something that needed to get stamped out by Sir Alex and the coaches at United.
With regards to who is better - There is simply no question about it. Ronaldo is better. He has the stats to prove it. He's done more in all forms of the game in the last year then Kaka or Messi. He's played more games, He's scored more goals. He's provided more assists, and he is playing in a team that is still competing for ALL three major club titles (Domestic cup / League and European Champions League). Kaka on the other hand will be fortunate to play in the Champs league next year. Messi could potentially rival CR7's stats, but unfortunately the man can never go a season without getting injured at least 4-5 times (and most of them are 4-6 week injury layoffs)
For the position that Ronaldo plays, he is undoubedly the best wingers in the world. If he played in the position that Kaka does, he would probably score even more goals.
Finally...Kaka doesn't play for stats...hmmm right of course not, he probably plays for Jebus and the Virgin Mary but tell me - does he play for titles right? Lets see how many titles he will win with Milan this year. Something tells me it won't be nearly as much as Ronaldo wins.
and sadly, even though Ronaldo has been a superior player to Kaka, he will still lose to the Brazilian. UEFA has a bias against English based players which is why either Kaka, or Messi, or someone else with lesser numbers will win the award. Even though it rightfully belongs to CR7.
