    Which player, Ronaldinho or Ronaldo, has made the biggest impact at their club during the last 5 seasons?

    I don't know who to pick, if i do pick Ronaldo then is that because i am being bias?

    This is why i want to know your views on this subject.

    Just to clarify, I don't want to know who is/was the better player but instead the player that has made the biggest impact at their club.


    Key things to consider:
    • How good were the teams when the players joined - Barca 6th in La Liga/Uefa Cup, Man Utd Prem Champions.
    • The age of the players when they signed for the club - Ronaldinho (23), Ronaldo (18.).
    • Players already at the club or breaking through into the first team - Puyol, Ferdinand, Xavi, Scholes, Iniesta, Giggs, Messi, etc...
    • Other key signings - Márquez, Davids, Eto'o, Deco, Giuly, Larsson, Rooney, VDS, Vidic, Evra, Park, Carrick, etc...
    • The managers
    • How the team does/would do without the player in their side for a long period of time.

    Barcelona:
    2003/04 -
    2004/05 - La Liga
    2005/06 - Supercopa de España, La Liga, Champions League
    2006/07 - Supercopa de España
    2007/08 -


    Man Utd:
    2003/04 - FA Cup
    2004/05 -
    2005/06 - League Cup
    2006/07 - Premier League
    2007/08 - FA Community Shield, Premier League, Champions League


    Stats from Wikipedia:
    Ronaldinho/Barca - 185 apps, 92 goals
    Ronaldo/Man Utd - 238 apps, 92 goals

    On this board Ronaldo has no chance.

    But the reality is Dinho 1.5 years... of top quality performance each week

    Ronaldo 2.5 years.... and still going

    stupid idea for a thread. Wait til Ronaldo has peaked and faded before trying to compare him.

    These sorts of threads generally descend into a war of attrition between agendas anyway.

    Ronaldinho pisses all over Ronaldo anyway.

    in terms of impact made at Barcelona compared to Ronaldo at Man Utd

    because you think Ronaldinho was the better player,

    or both?

    I was thinking back to when we came very close to signing Ronaldinho in the summer of 2003.

    But because of some problems, Ronaldinho signs for Barcelona and we end up signing Ronaldo instead.

    I felt gutted missing out on Ronaldinho back then but after 5 season Ronaldo has for Man Utd won the same things as Ronaldinho for Barcelona - 2 league titles and the Champions League.

    But now i can't complain, Ronaldo's transfer value has probably gone from £12m to around £40, he is still only 23 and going to get better.

    Because of the time period, Man Utd nearly signing Ronalinho, things won, i thought i would make a thread on who has made the bigger impact to their club.

    Dinho had much more immediate impact but has faded. Although you could argue that his dip in form has coincided with Barcelona's, so that would suggest he is very important to them.

    But Barca have Messi and Man U are a one man team, so Ronaldo.

    Ronaldo will prob never be able to do what Ronaldinho did in his first season for Barcelona. that was fucking incredible especially the second half of that season. he really dragged them from 11. place to 2nd.i cant remember ever seeing a player lift a team like that. also Ronaldo doesnt have any of Dinhos Genius. Ronaldo doesnt perform in big games like Ronaldinho did either. with that said we should wait because i dont think Ronaldo is good enough yet to start comparing him with great players like Ronaldinho. he still has time to learn and become better.

    Ronaldo is a long long way from disproving this theory just yet. Maybe the euros will help his case

    Not yet. He has to improve before we should go for him. im not saying he isnt a good player i just dont think he is all that. i have seen all the games in the big four for man utd except the one against Chelsea and i have yet to see Ronaldo make a big impression. and im not talking about goals because he is great at that. i dont really have any reason to be biased against him because i wanted him to come in 2006 when there was talks but i didnt really see him enough like i have now.

    also LRD just because i dont agree with what you say it doesnt mean you have to call it the most clueless post ever. can you truly say that Ronaldo has done the things that Ronaldinho did in his first season?

    So you are saying that playing against Derby is a big game? also if we go by that Henry has truly shown that he is world class after his performances for Barca against Levante.
