R9 was something else 🇧🇷 🔥

I didn’t really get to see him in his prime (Barca, PSV & Inter). Only seen him at the WC & Madrid & always thought he was fuckin brilliant. How he gets disrespected by people, who’ve probably never seen him play, is beyond me 🤦🏼‍♂️

One of the best ever and imagine if it wasn’t for his injuries aswell

Absolutely, the man came bk from that injury at Inter & led his team to the WC & bagged the Golden Boot in the same tournament 😂 There’s a reason they called him the phenomenon ffs 😂🔥

His barca time! The only player I thought he wasn’t from this world. With all my respect to Messi and Ronaldo, Ronaldo nazario was something else

We all watched him I love him I love cr7 But truth be told Nobody is touching Lionel Messi I don’t like Messi but his footballing skills and what he did on the pitch and for how long Closest to Messi was Ronaldinho!! Ronaldo is living off the 98 World Cup and 20002

14 Champions League goals in his whole career. A great player but still one of the most overrated of all time

Definitely not overrated

Nowhere near as good as the other Ronaldo and I don't even like him

💯 is

Most people forget about the Phenom, let’s not forget he won the 2002 World Cup with accolades. He’s definitely in my top 3, next to Pele and Messi.

He never truly had a “prime” , he was already the best player on the planet in psv then Barcelona when he was still a teenager, the he was getting close to his prime at inter then his knee literally exploded , then gained weight and was still world class despite everything.

Nobody comes close to him!! People can call the likes of Messi the Goat but R9 was on another level. Absolute God

“Best” and “greatest” are not the same. R9’s career was hampered by injuries so he wasn’t able to become the greatest. But for my money, the best to ever play the game.

It’s just nostalgia… nothing we haven’t seen before

Until messi entered the chat🐐.

2003 UCL quarter final, R9 pulled up to Manchester United and put a hatrick in the net, he was subbed with Madrid up 6-5 on aggregate and the stands rose to give him a standing ovation, Old Trafford knows greatness when they see it.

When he picked up the cruciate ligament injury, the football world literally stopped and mourned. Fans, players, coaches and adversaries, That was all they talked about, because there was a possibility El Phenomenon would never grace the field again

Too many people won’t listen when I tell them this. The absolute greatest 🫡

Ronaldo the Real Ronaldo was a great player

My man said fu fu fu fu fu 🤣

Messi, R9, and Romário: the three special geniuses I had the opportunity to watch live. The portuguese diva doesn’t even come close to them. Great athlete indeed, but never a football genius.

Greatest striker of all time.

Really! Absolutely incredible. It was a travesty he didn't play the '98 WC final.

They don't know. They just don't know, how good this guy was...

The best, and I have the privilege to see him in the begining, in Cruzeiro EC, from Brazil, my team!!!

If it wasn't for his injuries... everyone back then thought he was the next Maradona. He was the muscular version of Messi, and the nimble version of Cristiano.

I watched him in his prime and he was incredible. Just wish he took Football seriously

He was actually a monster

People just have NO idea how broken peak R9 was....God had to cut his career short due to how overpowered he was!

Can we all agree R9 is the mentor for Cr7 or I'm being brutal

Dad how good was prime Ronaldo?

Lmao 😂 This was before Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi came into the game. This Brazil Ronaldo is not even a better dribbler or a better goal scorer than CR7 or Messi, and he’s not even faster than CR7. R9 was good but he’s overrated and overhyped. CR7 & Messi are far better

This video made it sound like R9 is dead.

One of the best in his prime he can literally bully any team! Yes team not a player 😂

If he stayed, there wld be no talk of Pele, Messi, Maradona or Ronaldo 7

❤️

To have Zlatan admitting that you are Brilliant that means you are Goated 👊

Forget Any number 9 before or after R9onaldo. They will never compare. NEVER!

R9 is the real Ronaldo 👏🏾✊🏾

Damn his feet were crazy
