Happy Retirement Ronaldo Luís Nazário de Lima

[TRAV1$]

He's the best goalscorer ever.

Well technically, he probably isn't
Pele had 1124 goals in 1184 Club games, with goals against Europes elite
And 77 in 92 Internationals
But as the game has moved on since then, with Ronaldo playing at a recognised top level week in week out... it's easier to argue that he was the greater player.

exactly.

if he was from brazil or argentina, or even from europe he would be rated next to these guys.

Have you even seen him play? Or are you saying this based on wikipedia?

Pele includes friendlies and exhibition games in those statistics (like Romario), in competitive games he only scored just over 600. Plus he spent his entire career playing in Brazil.

But as a goalscorer, he had a better strike rate.

How can you put him up with the greats then if you've never seen him play a proper game?

If he was that good then he would've played for someone better than Cadiz. And scored more than 90 goals in almost 250 games.
