Tim Vickery: Ronaldinho's moment of truth is at hand in Brazilian championship

[Tim Vickery]

I was talking recently to an American who got into soccer as a result of watching Ronaldinho at his extraordinary best -- which seems a long time ago. Now he is not sure whether to feel angry with the player for spending so long betraying his own almost unparalleled talent, or grateful that for a few years Ronaldinho hit a peak of performance that few have ever matched.

It's shame seeing one of the greats of the game fade away like this. Could have been up there with the best ever but unfortunately his lifestyle paid its price.

I wouldn't mind playing in my home country being treated as a legend, playing the sport I love and getting paid ridiculous money. Nice life, eh?

I agree ronaldinho was world class, he was Barcelona's now messi for a few years. He would produce magic and skills that no one had ever seen. Outstanding player i wished Chelsea could of got him at his best!
