Cannavaro made a mistake when he signed for Real Madrid. Spanish championship is not for Italian players, specialy for defenders.

The reaction from the chelsea-players was a totally disgrace for footy, they are heroes for young players and then they act like they are not more then 10. I hope fifa put ballack and drogba under a very long ban. I`ve never liked those two players, drogba is just a big of a fanny as c.ronaldo is.. They have great skills but they act like kids on the field. With all this happening, all the people supporting chelsea can just stick their blue flag up their ass!

Guy is on his way to possibly winning his second Champions League, but hey I guess that is normal to hate the best player in the world.

Happens in every sport, but if he was on your team you would be sporting Ronaldo kits.
you can't say anything against his technical qualities...but there are a lot of people how believe lionel messi being the best player.

the problem with ronaldo is, he is just sooo very arrogant during the matches and is crying like a little child when he "dives" and doesn't get a free kick :lol:

even a lot of ManU fans don't like him for this attitude!!

he should move to real madrid in summer, that's the perfect club for him...and at real every player becomes worser and worser ^_^ ...a few examples? michael owen, david beckham, ...

Hey Bernd,

I am LOL'ing because everyone has that hatred for him and that is normal for a player to be so hated because all he does is win.

Hey, I don't like the whining part either and I don't want to hijack the thread but if at some point when he was younger some coaches had the balls to do something to him, maybe he would have learned not to do that.

I am speaking of hockey here but we have so many Superstars in the NHL that act like that, take Sidney Crosby for example. One of the best players in the game, feels like he takes too much abuse for someone of his ability and the refs should watch out for him because he is talented. He gets away with his whining most of the time, but sometimes the Coach says I have had enough and makes him sit on the bench for a couple shifts to think about how his crying is hurting the team.

I only say that these talented players do this because they feel like the Coach won't do anything about it. Imagine if the next time Ronaldo sat on the field with his arms up and as soon as he got up, he was substituted? Do that to him a few times and maybe his rants don't happen as often as he may be afraid he will get pulled from the game.

It is a fine line when dealing with talented players because if you don't give them what they want, they don't play as hard, but when they are sitting on the field crying and not running back hard to help his other teammates defend, that to me is worse because that is not showing you care about your team and how they fare, only what injustices happened to you.
Blood, Sweat, RESPECT!!

Metal/rock bands are also heroes for youngsters. Why not ban James for drinking or for his swears during concerts?
Sorry but this is a lame excuse for a bad parent/teacher. Those players are not there to educate, they are there to kick a ball.
I'm a Liverpool fan.

Fucking scouser aye? Have you ever seen James run after a person on stage trying to attack him and only being prevented from it by big security-guards? Its called violence and is illegal by law, atleast from where I come from. Your arguments fail!

Do you know how many rock stars took drugs? Remember Axl and his fights? Remember Marylin Manson and whatever he calls those stupid things he had done? Sex, drugs & rock n roll where do you think it comes? Do you think is just a sentence?
My friends, who are not listening metal/rock, always ask me (joking) why I'm not drinking or taking drugs like the rock stars.

So? I just scanned my last posts and I cant seem to find where I wrote that drugs and fights was ok as long as you are a rockstar. So saying that its ok running after a ref just because rock-starts are taking drugs is not a valid argument. I wrote that Drogbas and Ballacks reaction can not be associated with footy because it condones violence, role-model or not.

It seems you distort things as you want and you should read better what you write.
