BBC SPORT | Football | Internationals | Tim Vickery column

Always see this but tend to keep away from it as he 'specialises' in Brazilian football apparantly and the majority of stuff never really interests me.

I went in today though after seeing the Headline about Ronaldinho basically making out he had recaptured his greatness so i thought i would go in and have a read.

I couldn't believe when i seen him praising Ronaldinho's performance in the two games with Brazil and Mexico. I must have been watching another game as bar 1 free kick he scored, which was good btw, he did sweet fuck all.

His touch was VERY heavy, he was being caught in possession time after time, no tricks coming off and his passing was abysmal. Really looked a player out of sorts from the great man ive watched the last few seasons.

Makes you wander just how valid his other Brazilian articles have been and if he has bullshitted them too and got away with it due to people knowing next to nothing about that league.

Muppet!!

Yes, I read that too. Don't really think you can use a couple of friendlies to claim that Ronaldinho is back.

I saw the thread and though "oh good" because I am a big Tim Vickery fan.

But anyone that praises Ronaldinho is mad in my eyes. He's so over-rated.

He's the new Roberto Carlos.
