    That's simply down to technique e.g. I can take two steps up to a ball and kick it further than most people who take a ten yard run up. It's practice and timing.


    Yeah I agree, but why does it come more naturally to some kids than others?

    Because i find that you cant say anything about Ronaldo on this forum without being absolutely slated. Then everyone else jumps on you too.

    Please stop calling him Ronaldo, especially when comparing him with the actual Ronaldo. It's just confusing. It's like Ronald Reagan having Wilson written on his shirt.

    to be honest,its not that confusing really.u can take it that for every 99 out of 100 posts on here that contain the word ronaldo at the moment,the poster is talking about the man united version. anything else would have either the words fat or milan in it.

    (waits for response.....or dive when talking about the united version)

    Agreed, but 99% of posts don't usually suggest a comparison.......

    Indeed, it's the one who played in the 1994 world cup and played for Sao Paulo :) He later become known as big Ronaldo, which is ironic in many ways.

    He never played in it, was just in the squad.

    As an aside, the Portuguese Ronaldo is named after Ronald Reagan.
