After weeks fighting copyright claims, I had to trim off a bit of the video at 11:38 so it could come back online. In that segment mentioned that then Ronaldinho went trough a poor season with sub standard performances, before another poor season with injury problems that many believed were caused by the fact he constantly missed his sessions with the club's medical team, not doing any physiotherapy and finally that his teammate Alexander Hleb even said that he and Deco would show up drunk to training, leading Guardiola to see them as bad influences on a young Messi and demand their exit from the club,

He may have not won the most trophies or scored the most goals, but during those 4-5 peak years he achieved Maradona level legend status. People weren't even mad that he was partying like he was, but it's the media's job to make it look bad. Even if you speak to someone who doesn't watch football, they will for sure recognize Ronaldinho. True global icon. It's a shame that he was manipulated and was taken advantage of for his status

I wish you delved a bit more into how much people absolutely adored Dinho. The man was an absolute phenom, everyone loved him and I mean everyone! It wasn't just because of his outrageous skills but his personality, his smile even after being fouled, his dance with the ball, his samba celebration. What a lad. It's no wonder so many players today mention Dinho as the icon they grew up watching. He absolutely defined a generation of football.

You should have mentioned his game 5-4 game against Neymar's Santos in his time at Flamengo. That was arguably the best game in the history of the Brazilian league, Ronaldinho scored a hat trick and Neymar scored a Puskás winning goal

Watching him play was like watching a artist at its best.

Ronaldinho was simply too good for his own good. He won everything, lived a careless life and got away with it, until he didn't. Cant deny i would've loved to see him stay and barça and play more with Messi. Those two together were simply frightening

There’s never going to be another guy like Ronaldinho. He simply the greatest ever

For his brother retiring professional soccer so he can guide Ronaldinho, he really messed up in Barca for not putting him in check for what he was doing and he should've been his role model instead of a teammate that comes to practice drunk. His brother meant good at first but then got caught up in the money instead of what was best for him.

I'm not even a proper soccer/football fan. But, I know this much...... Ronaldinho is the best player I've ever had the pleasure of watching on TV. I'm happy to share my birthday with this legend!

Started watching football because of this magician... Quit watching after he quit.. That's how much I love Ronaldinho... Wish him luck for his life after whatever he's gone through.

Did you know that Ronaldinho almost signed for St Mirren in Scotland around January 2001, look it up, I am a Scottish St Mirren fan and its a legendary story between our fans !

One of my biggest childhood heroes! I’m so glad he’s gotten himself back together now. I couldn’t imagine growing up in his shoes. All the pressure on him to succeed for his family!

R9 caught my eye growing up, but Ronaldinho made me fall in love with the game 💚❤️

From what i observed back then . . . Guy played for the love of the game . . Never for scoring . . And he scored when he wanted to .

There are Super stars playing football… then there’s Ronaldinho…. He was the one … the one that made ppl cry to watch his beauty…. One that made opposites teams bowed down…the the other super stars saw & got star stricken … I’ve seen grown men as players race to exchange game jerseys with him… he was God in football form! This is how to pay respect to din dinho to true goat that made todays goats had to raise the bar..💯🙏🏾

One of the best dribblers of all time.

Man completed football so early so can't really blame him if he wanted to take it easy,but even when he was taking it easy he was the most exciting to watch 🔥💯

football is nothing without Ronaldinho......he was like drug in our childhood ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😘

Ronaldinho is definitely the most skillful player in history.

His talent allowed him to gain worldwide fame, fortune, and create art on the pitch, but it was also a curse. That much fame and pressure at a young cage stunted his growth and left him incapable to handle the extra things that come with the life outside the pitch. He was absolutely brilliant on the pitch, we were all blessed to experience it while it lasted.

The man is purest form of a soccer player. The game is his everything. He never needed to be “smart” off the pitch. He just needed a better entourage. It pains me to see videos like this about him. Someone who has brought so much joy to so many hearts. I pray for his well being and the recovery of his image. 🙏🏾 Regardless, the real Ronaldinho lives in our memories and hearts. There aren’t two Ronaldinhos. There will never be.

I love Ronaldinho he was a superstar, a guy who loved playing football, but he was not consistent at all he had 3 years at top level at best. But his impact will be felt for years

His brother literally went from hero to villain In this guy's life

Ronaldinho gave the number 10 another meaning, he alone was enough to make a team goes from 6th place to winning 2 league titles in a row and a team winning UCL title after 13 years, titles isn't enough to express how good and what huge impact he made in football. I'm sure he made millions of kids love football, he alone increases the popularity of the game and was the most entertaining player in the history imo, he entertains AND wins, wich is one of the hardest thing in football. I miss him a lot and most Barca fans are fans because of this one golden magician. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bdF1jLKJuZrKmqs.html

Ronaldinho and Thierry Henry are by far my favourite living legends of Football, because of them I started to play and love Football in the first place, they are part of my childhood.. ☯️

Remember also that his brotha was the one who decided to launch Ronaldinho Gaúcho's career in Europe...he first tried to have him signed with a Swiss team(FC Sion) as a young professional back in 1994 during his time there. It didn't work out so he sent him back to Gremio...then managed to have him signed at PSG...despite Gremio's will to keep him... In other words if it wasn't for Roberto de Assis...maybe Ronaldinho's career would've been really different...especially at his start...

Iniesta was also given a standing ovation by madrid fans when he scored in the 2015-16 clasico

All this man wanted was to play and enjoy is game a true legend the most enjoyable player to watch

happily playing soccer in jail without the stress of big bosses and media, you can see he just lived for fun.

He was supposed to be the next Pele.

Legendary content creator 🔥🔥

Gotta love Ronaldinho, he made football look good, so much flair

The guy that made me love football forever number 1 for me ❤

Just a walking work of art.❤️. Gaucho was the reason many fell in love with football..

Ronaldinho is brand himself... Even if he has nothing in his account but he could again create new one... So just remember... Who he is... 'Ronaldinho'

Remember is was Ronaldinho who made Messi so good.

Growing up watching him was like a fairytale it hurts when people say Messi, Ronaldo, Pele and Maradona and ignore Ronaldinho when he deserves to be in that same bracket of player.

Ronaldinho was the reason I love football ⚽ and nothing else🤦

Legend .....greatest and flashiest dribbler of all time

What a player. What a child. I hope he has grown up now. You could always see how Messi looked up to him. This is the problem when your agent does not want to be in the shadow of his client.

I am totally shocked to see the legendary Brazilian player Ronaldinho boss suffering like this but hoping for him to continue playing the sport and working out hard daily together with him studying well,good friends!!!LONG LIVE RONALDINHO BOSS!!!🙏

all the greats made us awe with their performance but Ronaldinho made us feel the joy in football with his performance

i never watched football, but i played fifa, and one day my friend told me that there is a man that can do all of those tricks, needless to say i didn't believe him, until he showed me Ronaldihno. To me the best i have ever seen and always so smiley.

The most skillest footballer ever,quite entertaining

Dinho problem was that he loved soccer too much. The competitiveness and business were secondary to him. Many times he seemed to want to entertain than win. World soccer misses that, the entertainer. In all the handful of legit GOATS, he will forever be known as the Entertainer.

You do remarkably great videos about great players. You’re one hell of a great man then!

As a die hard Brazil & Ronaldhino fan, I’m shocked to be learning all this now. I grew up in Haiti where you’re either a Brazil or Argentina fan, maybe it’s cause I was a kid or cause we just care about the game and not all the personal “celebrity” details that I never heard any of these things about him. Both Roberto and Dhino will forever be legends we admire 🤷🏾‍♀️

No one ever comes close. He is the most complete Player of All time

Absolute Legend he was just himself and he didn't let the corrupt industry effect him. 1 of the best to ever do it

It had saddened many of his fans to see him end up like this

Love this guy...sorry for the unfortunate things he suffered...i can identify...but i do appreciate his contribution to football.. he did what he was put here to do...love him!!!

He is a legend himself ❤️

Dinho was really a joy to watch. By the way, if one missed the Ronaldinho article on players tribune - go do it now, really interesting stuff. Great content as always.

the most talented footballer of all time, he would make a blind man love the game

Had his poster up on my wall about the 2005/6 season no doubt about it he was for a short period the best player on the planet and a joy to have seen play the game

this reminded me of garincha's story.. if it was not for social media, he would have been a forgotten player

Excellent video as always!

Footballers break to the limelight at the age where the rest of us are busy with books learning all the essentials that help us choose a career path that we will pursue in college/university and most of them especially the earlier generation were not drafted to juggle between the two. They simply had football and this obviously took a toll on them when their career finally flourished. They skipped crucial learning stages and when you have too much money without common sense, you are simply a ticking time bomb. He suffered under his brother's care and he simply can't break out from that cocoon.

He’s the greatest footballer for life🙏🙏🙏🙏🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲

2:00, a bit of context. Campeonato Gaúcho is the football tournament in the State of Rio Grande do Sul. Grêmio and Internacional have one of the biggest rivalries in the country. The Brazil championship only started to be played in a Round-robin tournament format in 2003, before that the first semester was reserved for the state championships, which at the time were almost as important as the national championship.

I wanted you to make a video about Jô, who recently got his contract terminated. But this video is 🔥.

Failure starts from giving up on yourself.. that happened to Pato, Maradona , Ronaldo (Brazil), Ronaldihno, Adriano and now Neymar is following the same path..

Football was his passion. The only player who were smiles while playing ❤❤❤

Ronaldinho is one of the best we ever had. Good luck to you my friend

This guy wow he’s not only the best soccer player when he plays you can see he’s an artist he just played like art In soccer field That’s how I describe him!!!

Ronaldinho is someone you would say won at life but lost at the same time

Ronaldinho was just one of the best attacking midfielders ever on planet earth: his ball control, dribbling skills, and passes to the right with his left leg while looking towards the left are unmatched and will never be matched. A legend is only one and once. He made me love football more and it was a complete joy watch him play because anytime he was on the pitch, he could do magic with the ball. I just hope he is not broke. The state should pardon him for whatever wrong he did unknowingly because he is state icon. Ronaldinho is a great football legend and joined the ranks of Pele, Socrates, Diego Armando Maradona, Johan Cruyff, and Ryan Gigs as football greatest and football wizards.

He smile all the time,...... raw talent....

... if not THE greatest. Him and Alex del Piero... No one, each in his own way, turned football art like those two.

A living legend.I consider him as best footballer of all times

The thing is that we all make mistakes and learn from those mistakes .... Any way much love for him ... Still loves him

Ronaldinho is a legend and a OG made the most of his opportunities and amazed the world, and also brothers in arms just makes me love him even more

18:31 Damn I'm actually from Basingstoke and I remember the hype about Ronaldinho potentially coming but I never knew it was a legit thing that anyone outside of Basingstoke knew about lol

Another great vid. Do one on bale now that he is joing MLS.

Mid 2000's, almost every second child in Croatia had R10 Barca kit those days. A LEGEND

His $5.0 in bank account is still more than what I've got in my bank account, so he can keep his hopes up :)

I am from Porto Alegre, his hometown, and we are about the same age. I remember seeing him play in his teens, the other side (which includes one of the most savage city derbies in the world, the GRENAL), was absolutely terrified. Being a supporter of his youth club, Gremio, I was delighted to see him play, and everybody wondered when he would debut in the pros. He was truly one of a kind. But also aloof, out of touch, and after 2010, pretty much disengaged from the game, with the exception of the seasons he spent with Atletico Mineiro. What a shame.

Goat 🐐

nice video bro! always wondered what the story was with my favourite footballers downfall, where is your accent from? its cool

Lool Ronaldinho definitely knew some of the stuff his brother was up to, nobody's that stupid. I ain't mad tho.THATS MY GOAT 🙏🏾😅‼️

Ronaldinho- a legacy to be cherished for at least two generations.

Your channel and these short documentaries are amazing. Have done one on the Greek Maradona Hatzipanigis ?

He was Great , Great player

He comes across as a jolly good fellow who just likes to play football and nothing else. Unfortunately nefarious people around him were always happy to take advantage of his celebrity.

Greatest 👏

He is regarded the best in the game .with his Swift touches magical moves nothing like seen in the history of game .

Blackburn Rovers... Yay we got mentioned... 🤣🤣🤣

To me The best player EVER ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Have you done henrik larsson? I'm gonna check if not please do 😁 Never mind bro, just found it lol Great content, I love it! ❤️

Ronaldinho!! Leyenda del Queretaro FC

R10 acheived every sucess during his football days ... there is no downfall

Greatest of all without any questions the Tyson of soccer

Lol Ronaldinho will never go broke dude

One of the best to have played the game of football! !!!!!!

Wow they really came after him after he supported Bolsanaro

Nothing will ever change my mind. He is my GOAT 🐐 ❤️

Legendary Kid

As a kid in Zimbabwe this guy was my idol and to many more you ones for real

He's a legend! I just wish he had an honest support system growing up to cover for what he lacked, Good Education

This guy is probably the best EVER to ever do it.
