# Ronaldinho


This Brazilian star has retired after an extraordinary career but his talent will be remembered forever. Whenever someone takes the name of Ronaldinho, a smile comes on my face. Just thinking of the things how he did and the way he did them.


There may never have been a player who made the game as enjoyable as Ronaldinho.

What Ronaldinho did, no one else did. And it wasn’t just what he did; it was the way he made people feel. Nostalgia, memories, are about that: not so much events but emotions. Watching Ronaldinho was fun, it made people happy. Those may be two of the most simple, childish

words of all but they are the right ones. Football stripped right down to its essence: happy, fun.


Football is about joy. It’s about dribbling. I favor every idea that makes the game beautiful. Every good idea has to last. ~ Ronaldinho

# Pele


He is widely regarded as the greatest player of all time. Edson Arantes do Nascimento is a Brazilian retired professional footballer who played as a forward. During his playing days, he was the highest paid athlete in the world. According to the IFFHS, Pelé is the most successful league goal-scorer in the world, scoring 1281 goals in 1363 games, which included unofficial friendlies and tour games.



If you think of the great qualities of other players, he had them all. He was fast, intelligent, very creative; he had immense physical strength, he could shoot well with his right and his left foot, he headed well, he was always on top of the game, very focused.


Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do. ~ Pele

He has played for 7 clubs in his career and scored 259 goals. He has also served as a manager and coach at other clubs as well as the national team of Argentina.



Small in stature, with a full head of crazy curls and a stocky body, he was adored across all continents. His football skills were outstanding, earning him a place in the top 3 world’s greatest players who ever lived.


If I could apologize and go back and change history I would do. But the goal is still a goal, Argentina became world champions and I was the best player in the world. ~ Diego Maradona

He mostly plays as a striker. Neymar has become the best Brazilian footballer of this generation.

Messi and Ronaldo are the top two goal scorers in Champions League history with over 100 strikes to their names.The best dribbler after Maradona the world has seen.


I prefer to win titles with the team ahead of individual awards or scoring more goals than anyone else. I’m more worried about being a good person than being the best football player in the world. When all this is over, what are you left with? When I retire, I hope I am remembered for being a decent guy. ~ Lionel Messi

The list does not end here there are many more dribblers but these are the one to whom I admire the most.
