Ronaldinho Keen To Follow Coach Keane

FC Barcelona star Ronaldinho Gaúcho may appear to have little in common with rough-as-a-rat-catcher’s-mitt Roy Keane, but there is a point that both players have in common: the desire to take their experiences from the pitch and transform them into ideas as how best to coach a team.

Ronaldinho also praised the ex-Manchester United midfield terrier as a role model for those who want to make the switch from the rank and file to the officers’ club.

Although the testy Irishman has only helmed Sunderland through 12 games, Ronaldinho has little doubt that the legendary Roy Keane will also show the same characteristic drive to win in a sheepskin coat that he showed in a football strip.

“I’d like to be like Roy,” explained the Brazilian in original reports reflected in mammary gland oriented British tabloid The Sun.

"A lot of players just hang up their boots and do other things that have football on the edge, but I think that Roy’s example is one I’d like to follow when I retire from playing.


“I’m like him in the fact that both of us feel passion and love the game of football. It’s something that forms part of your life and I’d like to prolong that feeling as a Coach,” added the Barcelona star.

[Magical20]

yeah he doesnt seem right far away from the pitch... but IMO deco'd make a better coach... he would do an outstanding job if you ask me, i can really picture him doing that... but i dont think he'll do it though..

[Jaime]

[Magical20]

MADRID, Nov 26 (Reuters) - Ronaldinho said that he fulfilled a childhood dream by wrapping up Barcelona's 4-0 win over Villarreal on Saturday with his spectacular overhead kick three minutes from time.

Lurking in the Villarreal area, the Brazilian controlled a lofted pass from Xavi with his chest, swivelled round with his back to goal and then fired a stunning bicycle kick over the head of keeper Mariano Barbosa and high into the net.

'I didn't really think too much about it because it just happened on the spur of the moment,' said the 26-year-old who had scored Barca's opener from the penalty spot.

'When I controlled the ball it stood up just right and everything else worked out perfectly.

'Ever since I was a young boy I've dreamed of scoring a goal like that.

'I'm never going to forget this goal. Now I have to try for my other dream goal which is to score from the halfway line.'

The Nou Camp gave Ronaldinho a standing ovation after the goal, while Barca coach Frank Rijkaard admitted had left him gasping in admiration.

'Ronaldinho's second goal was the sort of marvel that provokes strong emotions from Barcelona and all football fans alike,' said the Dutchman. 'This sort of performance will help strengthen the side in matches to come.'

Barca keeper Victor Valdes said he had been the victim of similar goals in training.

'He's scored some like that against me in practice games and it's a nightmare,' he told reporters. 'It is no accident.'

Barca's emphatic win put them four points clear at the Primera Liga, with second-placed Sevilla travelling to Athletic Bilbao on Sunday.

[Magical20]

yeah they were talking about this.. (the dutch commentators ) he also said that he has one other dream goal.. he'd like to score from the mid line...!

well good luck with that ronnie :P ! (i've seen nedved do it once..its awesome!)

[MUFC]

The one against Werder Bremen first time i seen it tonight, utter utter brilliance. Only one player could think of that, truely wonderful goal.

[azzurri]

Not really. Kind of practical, considering how tall their CB's are. His goal vs Villareal was amazing.

[Jaime]

True Gaucho golazo.... He knew they would jump, it is great they open the door and he just passes the ball in the gol While it was practical it was sheer class, He would looked a total wanker if they hadn't of jumped, so it was pretty gutsy to try as well. From now on people will not know wether to jump or stay on the ground when he is taking a FK

[Magical20]

waaahahaahah it was the first i've seen to not go over the wall... so i guess ppl will always jump ...

how about the way deco scored now that was just plain dumb by the keeper.. deco does that EVERY SINGLE TIME when the balls on that spot..and the keeper just left it open for deco.. waahaha :'D i laughed so hard at him + the dutch commentator SAID it was going to happen !

[Magical20]

here.. i guess its not fair that there was not thread for the ronnie fans.. so here it iss..

Ronaldinho, Deco, Giuly and Márquéz absent

Meanwhile, Deco Giuly and Márquez all missed training with the squad in order to do some recovery and muscle toning exercises under the watchful eyes of the Club's fitness coaches in the Nou Camp gym. This has become a common practice given that these three players cover a lot of ground in a match and require a different recovery regime from their team-mates.

For his part, Ronaldinho remained at home due to a sleepless night caused by a mild illness.

[Magical20]

wahaha i just saw 'doni' (from milan if im correct) score an overhead kick just like ronnies ! in the italian highlights whaha
