Some great points by Dwarf, Dlan and Jeff on this page.
I doubt the Ronnie argument will ever go away until he scores in a major
final or performs some ridiculous heroics. Im a big critic of Ronaldo's and will be
quick to call out his flaws, but he HAS to be World Class no matter what anyone
says. Just the 40 goals should be enough reason in anyones book.
Yes he does go missing sometimes and he can infuriate the hell out of you,
but this guy keeps winning all the awards and getting into the top 3 in
Europe and World players of the year. He will surely be crowned World Player
next time round, so surely we can class him as a World beater.
Rio seems to be the ONLY player that everyone agrees on which is surprising.
Even the likes of Ronaldo, Rooney, Scholes, Evra, Vidic, Tevez etc....have
not been given the 'world class' tag by some members, which is surprising
to me in some ways but not in others.
Everyone differs on their views of 'World class' which is fair enough.
It makes for a good discussion none the less ;-)
