Tooj Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Bale has immense pace, but he's nowhere near as strong or I actually don't even think he's as fast as Ronaldo. Ronaldo is arguably the greatest athlete to have played the game. Physically he has absolutely everything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 How prevalent is performance and drug use is football? The number of people who have been caught using over these years seems to be incredibly and remarkably low. My favourite sport is basketball and I am always stunned that a sport featuring power athletes who are repeatedly jumping and sprinting has almost no suspicion or conviction of drug use. It is similar in football. Considering the athletes at the top level play nearly all year round and the amount of strength, pace, and endurance required to play in the best leagues, I just find it difficult to believe that no one is looking for ways of improving unnaturally.

" What Bale's got that Ronaldo hasn't is incredible strength and power. Ronaldo is quick but when Bale gets up a head of steam, there's no stopping him." man needs locking up for his own safety I'm wondering if he's just written out the Ronaldo at Man U out of his memory completely and is just going by how he looked when he first came over. Bales a great player but he's not world class (then again my world class standards are ridiculously high and I think theres only 4 players in the world who are world class in Xavi Iniesta Ronaldo and Messi) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Nguyen Van Falk Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Ronaldo is the perfect athlete as far as football goes, he's incredible and comparing him to Bale is lolworthy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Funny thing is Bale is trying to mould his game after Ronaldo, he's playing in a lot more central areas now and becoming more of a goalscorer like Ronaldo did. He will never be as good as him though, which goes without saying. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Pundits seem to be falling over themselves to proclaim Bale as one of the best in the world. I don't understand why they're so desperate to push this all of a sudden. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordie_b Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 So i've been working on a new project for a little while and here is the first output from it. A mix of my love of football and Sensible Soccer... http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/7746/sissokochelsa.png Ill be making more goals soon and will be doing requests via the website and Facebook page. EDIT The facebook URL isnt facebook.com/comingsoon thats just a placeholder whilst I decide on the name of the site Give us the tickboxes: what do you want from the name? - something that has words like sensible, pixels, goals etc in it - name needs to be under 15 characters long so that I can secure social media usernames - .co.uk and .com must be available I had the perfect name for the project but some gimp in America owns the .com and isn't using it. If you have a good name please PM it so that I don't risk oth people taking it. Thanks! Thanks everyone for your comments and name ideas. I think I have decided on a name and the site will be launching sometime next week. If there is enough interest we could possibly have a dedicated thread for requests and created images. Ill be in touch soon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
