Ronaldo Thread

Straight up call him fatty, Retundo or whatever the guy flat out scores, as shown at the end of last season I saw no Milan fan (even those calling him names) complaining then.

The guy lost weight and seems pretty focused. People don't call Maldini Gramps, Grampa, Oldie, or Nonno as its disrepectful.

I guess (IMO) we can bash a players form/how he is performing all we want. But to Dis/disrespect a player because of his physical make up, age or something that's natural, is not fair especially when he where's the Black & Red and has performed the way Ronaldo has for our club thus far.

Picking on people who are fat is too easy, plus Ronaldo has shed a lot of the weight...flip leave the guy alone.

Fat or not I don't care he's a Milan player and a pretty good one at that and I hope he continues his scoring ratio for our club when he comes back.

^^ Nice post.

Ronnie does look big in that video, like always. I don't think there is a chance of dramatic reduction of his weight, ever - he's very muscular and bulky, thats his bodily constitution. But he also looks fit and agile there as well, and thats a good sign.

ITALIA-BRASILE: 3° ATTO
17/11/2007 11.57.00
A Milanello, questa mattina, si è svolto l'ultimo allenamento che della settimana. E' stata giocata la 3° partitella tra italiani e brasiliani. Ora, per il gruppo, due giorni di riposo. La preparazione riprenderà martedì pomeriggio.

MILANELLO - Questa mattina la squadra di Carlo Ancelotti si è allenata a partire dalle 11.00. Il clima gradevole (sole, cielo azzurro e un leggero vento) ha permesso di terminare bene la settimana di lavoro, senza gli 11 nazionali. Si è trattato di una seduta piuttosto leggera...senza dubbio allenante e divertente. Nella prima mezz'ora, infatti, il gruppo ha lavorato unito. A parte, per tutta la durata della seduta hanno lavorato Marek Jankulovski ed Emerson.

Il riscaldamento è stato effettuato sul campo alto, alle spalle degli spogliatoi e della palestra. In questa fase i giocatori si sono impegnati nelle consuete corse lungo l'asse verticale del terreno di gioco, per gli esercizi riguardanti sia la parte superiore che la parte inferiore del corpo. Dopo alcuni minuti di questo lavoro si è passati alla fase dedicata allo stretching.

Intanto, a parte, Kalac e Fiori, con Vecchi e Abate per il proprio riscaldamento, con una serie di tiri in porta e di movimenti per gli arti superiori. Il resto del gruppo, prima di passare alla quarta fase dell'allenamento ha effetuato alcuni tiri in porta da limite dell'area. E poi...l'ultimo atto della sfida tra Italia e Brasile.

A sorpresa gli "azzurri" si sono presentati in campo con la maglia della nazionale italiana, per onorare al meglio la sfida, che dopo le prime due partite della settimana, vedeva le squadre in perfetta parità di risultati: 1 vittoria per ciascuno. Da una parte Kalac, Serginho, Digao, Costacurta (unico "straniero"), Pato e Ronaldo; dall'altra (appunto con la maglia della nazionale) Fiori, Maldini, Favalli, Nesta, Brocchi e Inzaghi. E' finita 5-1 per i verdeoro. Le reti sono state messe a segno da Ronaldo, ben 5 (di cui 1 rigore e 2 pallonetti incredibili), Pato e Serginho; per gli italiani ha segnato Maldini. La partitella è stata giocata sul campo alto, con 4 tempi da 4 minuti ciascuno, arbitro Carlo Ancelotti.
Per chiudere in bellezza, la squadra vincitrice ha si è fatta immortalare in una foto ricordo!!!

L'allenatore rossonero, da oggi, concederà due giorni di riposo. La preparazione in vista della gara di Cagliari, in programma domenica 25, riprenderà martedì pomeriggio alle 15.00.

I don't know what you have seen but Ronaldo seems like he's in form to me...he looks agile and quick in his movements and he seems as motivated as ever. Ronnie has a thyorid problem which was only discovered in September my Milan Lab staff. This thyroid problem adds on extra weight to a person diagnosed with it. He is taking cure for it and he has already shed some weight and he'll continue adjusting to this cure in the next few months. But it is said that personnel at Milan are very happy with the tough training schedule + weight-adjusting treatment Ronaldo has been undergoing and I think the results are already showing, even though we await the real games before we can judge. Guys please don't trash Ronaldo cos he is a fantastic player who can land us another Champions league this year. Whether I'm being realistic or optimistic I don't know, but I certainly believe in what I just said.

We can criticise Fatty if we want to. That doesn't mean we don't want him to come back quickly and do well.

I'm curious as to know why do the ultra's get away with such bad behaviour and bringing the game to disrepute? Why are they not put in jail and banned from entering the stadiums? Football does not need them, they are not a source of revenue, they do not improve the game anyway, so I do not understand why the Italian police and government is so linient with them? In my country the ultras would have been rounded up and thrashed by the cops, banned from enetring the stadiums and the game would have gone on. Who are they to disturb football? Football does not need them, the ultras need football, so they better disciline themselves and enter stadiums or be thrown out.

Nicknaming him 'Fatty' is really stupid coming from a Milan fan, unless we're talkin bout a young kid. The Milan players should not be a source of derision for you. But as you said, you can do what u want....not necessarily a good thing though....obviously.

Ronaldo's Miracle Hair Formula Revealed

Ronaldo's AC Milan comeback will apparently be joined by a full head of hair, with the striker's rapid hair growth being put down to a Swiss remedy that he's agreed to publicise...



zoom - galleria Ronaldo's AC Milan comeback isn't far off but, as per the celebrity status of top footballers, some would rather discuss the striker's hair than his feet.

According to Sao Paolo newspaper O Globo, Ronaldo's 70s style afro, which he revealed this week, is down to the Swiss hair remedy Crescina, which the Brazilian striker recently agreed to promote.

Ronaldo thus eschewed fourteen years of a 'number one' buzzcut to grow a mane. Speaking to Chinese news agency Xinhua, he remarked, "It may even help me score more headers."

Regardless, Crescina representatives are thought to be delighted that their product of gaining exposure, although some rossoneri faithful may see it as another distraction for a striker who really must return to the pitch soon.

Still, when he does, at least he'll stand out. Of course, according to some, perhaps it's only a matter of time until Ronaldo goes the whole hog and perfects the Carlos Valderrama look...




They're just jealous

I saw the game. Ronnie look out of shape and slow. But he hasn`t played for how long, 4-5 months and that´s normal. He looked exhausted after 30 minutes. I think he was wasn´t playing 100% because he was afraid of injury.
btw zidane performed very well and serginho was unlucky not to score from 25 metres, he hit the crossbar.

OMG that's...........FAT ! VERY FAT for an athlete. Well as long as he performs , he can go forever being FAT .

where's that fit model that Ancelotti claimed? that's nothin' but a tub of saturated fats compressed into human form...

His neck is big, as always. I don't see any fat there, no difference from before.
