RONALDO

The best soccer player in the world and the natural successor to Pele.  He may not have the devastating left foot of R.Carlos or the passing of Zidane, but his balance and dribbling skills make him almost impossible to be dispossessed without being fouled. The Brazilian is also capable of tremendous accelaration and once he gets into his strides, there's no catching him. Ronaldo also has dead-ball skills, taking corners and scoring from free-kicks for his club team.
 
 

THINGS TO WATCH OUT FOR: Blistering accelaration, superb ball control and perfect balance.
