Ronaldo Is All About The Glamour

Cristiano Ronaldo Manchester United 2008/09

Guus Hiddink has launched an attack on Man United's Cristiano Ronaldo saying that Gerrard deserved the World Footballer Of The Year's title over Ronaldo.
Hiddink has also said that Ronaldo's prize had more to do with his looks and hairstyle than the goals and talent.

Ronaldo has won many awards this season and last season, he scored in the Champion's League final, he won Man United many matches and he is in most peoples opinions- the best player in the world.

In some peoples eyes he is a good looking footballer and he has got a playboy image but football is a massive part of Ronaldo's life and he loves it, I don't think it is fair at all for Hiddink to say that.

Hiddink said:
'Cristiano Ronaldo is a good-looking footballer, he looks fit and, oh yes, his hair is always in place,'
'But him winning the award is too much about glamour.'
'I very much preferred Gerrard,' said Hiddink. 'He has superb technical and tactical qualities and I admire his spirit and attitude on the pitch.
'It has everything to do with his passion for the game and my passion for football.
'He is a player who fans can identify themselves with and a man who carries the love for his club on his club badge.
'There is not another player in the world who combines all those qualities. He is the type of player who appeals so much more to me than Cristiano Ronaldo.
'Of course, Ronaldo entertains the crowds and has great skills. But it is too much glamour and show. Gerrard, Barcelona's Xavi and Messi are not as much focused on themselves. They focus on the team.'

    Hiddink's stoned. He's comparing Ronaldo to Gerrard? Totally irrational.

    Btw, I'm looking for some quality link exchanges with other blogs. Would you be interested?

    Looking forward to a positive response.
