      Oh hell no! He should have retired before joining Milan! Was once an absolute joy to watch but then put the party scene ahead of his football and turned sh*te.

      Not for me, no.

      Still has a bit of magic in him but not enough to rely on. Well past it, has no stamina left in him and no pace. Still a lovely passer and link up player but we have Maxi to do that.

      Should concentrate on someone else I feel.

      Agreed and agree.

      As much as i like the idea of Ronaldinho in a reds shirt, logistically it makes no sense. We don't NEED him. What we need is foundations to build on, good younger players who we can look at keeping for the future. A player like him would be nothing more than a stop-gap.

      Like i said earlier, i love the idea. Would be great still, if used right. But it just doesn't make any sense.

      He is 30 years old.  This doesn't fit in with John Henry's plan to have a younger team.  Plus has anybody watched Serie A lately?  Ronaldinho looks awful.  Thanks....but no thanks.

      If we're buying a time machine too then yes.

      I don't know actually though about this.

      Is he still carrying all that extra timber?

      If the motivation was there to do well for us and it was financially not a bad deal, then why not have him on the bench?

      Other than that, not particularly keen.  Another oldie!

      Would welcome him if his wages would be reasonable and he would come as a free!

      Still has a few good years in him, i think

      I'd love to see him in the red shirt but the problem remains, where should we position him? When Roy bought Meireles he hasn't had a f**king idea where was his position. But if he can re-ignite his passion for football and willing to take a pay cut then why not?

      No chance. I cant see NESV agreeing to this guys extorsionate wages just as a commercial signing. If they want someone who will sell shirts go for Honda and is a far better footballer aswell.

      He is only 30 not 60.but he doesnt seem to have been at his best for a couple of years and maybe their is a reason for that. On balance I'd say no unless we can get the player of 2005.Roy might have a problem though I dont think he has ever played a game where he has had to come back into his own half.

      Really?  Another player who's best position is central attacking midfield?  Did Gerrard sleep with that 16 year old and get her pregnant again which means he'll be moving to Real Madrid?

      Lucas wants him to join if possible.

      I think he actually could be an ok signing, if on the right wage structure. I'm assuming other than the likes of Torres, Stevie, Carra + Joey Cole, the highest earners are on around 40-60k a week. If Ronnie were to be on the 60k a week scale, which is considerably less than his current deal, it could be worth a shot for 6-12 months, the revenue from shirt sales would be sky high. Then again, it is a big gamble for various reasons, fitness, attitude, tactical...etc
