I should become a pro footballer. I'd probably never dive or cheat

I'd probably be able to score around 3 goals during a World Cup None in a final though, I'm not that good

Man, what a bummer.
I'm just becoming accustomed to life without the World Cup again. Even though there are other tournaments coming up soon, they're just not the same.
And even though I may not be happy or satisfied with the result of this World Cup, it was still a great journey.
Damn 4 years is a long time. Hopefully I can be there at the next one.

Lol. Get over it. The kid is one of the best players in the whole world. That's why you can't stand him and hate him so much lol.
Your media was saying Rooney is the next Pelé. LMAO!!! Like we say here in Portugal : "Who tha fuck is Rooney ?" . He'll probably end up being another George Best . Rooney, English Pelé number 54 
Besides, before you win something, you must beat Ricardo, England's team worst nightmare.

Hey mate. Why do you insist on being so inflammatory? It is morons that dont see that the whole picture and sink with the media to the lowest common denominator of Ronaldo hate, you just become one if you come on here sniping at English players.
Especially using Best as an example of what? A shit player? Thats ridiculous, if you are talking about burn out then maybe be more specific. Either way its just aggro speculation for its own sake isnt it.
Hopefully i am just suffering a temporary sense of humour bypass and am missing that this bickering is all tongue in cheek. Despite it having been running for ages now...

C Ronaldo, Ronaldhino, A. Ronaldo, David Beckham and Zidane are the only soccer players I know of by name

Am i more inflammatory than someone which has the need to constantly bash C.Ronaldo ? Am i more inflammatory than this guy that makes a site, just because he hates a football player ? Am i more inflammatory than the hundreds of English fans that went to the last two games with France and Germany, to constantly whistle when C.Ronaldo played the ball ?
As i see it, most (not all) English fans seem to be under the media mass mind control and act accordingly, like hate drones. Do you remember the English media classified Portuguese players as "indisciplined" ? Check the stats on Portugal vs England, Portugal committed 10 faults, while England committed 18. The facts speak for themselves ...
Don't get me wrong, English players are great world class players. Personally, i think the premier league is fabulous, my favorite. It's the verbal and physical violence that some English fans practice that i despise. It's either English hooligans, or the excuse that some fans drink too much, get crazy, and start breaking stuff and people faces where ever they go. Yes, i would be ashamed if Portuguese fans did such shit, because that's all football is not, and that's what English fans are becoming, again.
George Best was deemed to become one of the world greatest players. Of course he has it's higher place because he was a hell of a player, but he could have been much more, if he could be more of a humble man instead of playing the super star role and ruining his life. Rooney, as it seems, is deemed to a similar fate. But that's just guessing ...

As someone who only got into soccer during this World Cup, I have to say C. Ronaldo is an amazing player. I think that fact pretty much speaks for itself.
But, he's also a bad actor and a whiny bitch.

It sounded like more than a couple'a 100 English fans to me. Nobody likes Portugal. Nobody. That's funny.
And you still lost anyway. And then got your asses whooped by Germany. Ho ho.

I agree on that to some extent. The last game with Germany, he simulated some faults, something which i don't like. About him being a whiny bitch, like you say, there can be several interpretations. But if you refer to the fact he cried when he got injured and replaced against Holland, well OMR, that's love for the game , the kid really likes and enjoy playing football, and he really is good at it.

No I'm talking about the fact that he dives alone more than all the Italians put together...hands covering his face, faking agony..

It's not JUST Ronaldo. The other teammates are more than happy to go diving too.
Ronaldo is just ridiculous at it though.
