Ronaldo de Assis Moreira is one player I'll never tire of watching, although he dumped my country out of the 2002 World Cup QF, he is just mesmeric. Never will we see another Ronaldinho again.
There are players who can be just as good as him, but he is the complete footballing package with skill, pace to burn, flair, and he tries outrageous things that seem to work.
Ronaldinho has played for three clubs but is about to make that four when he pulls on an AC Milan shirt for 2008. He has made 297 appearances at club level scoring 125 goals with Gremio, Paris St Germain, FC Barcelona, and now AC Milan. He has been capped 83 times by Brazil, scoring 33 goals too.
