    Yes we know who is better zidane. Thats not what I'm here for. I have decided to write a comparison essay about them not too long, and need some things to compare about them. You can give me anything. Like how they play, age difference, fans, statistics etc. Example: Ronaldo is a fancy dribbler etc. etc. Zidane makes dribbling look easy etc. etc. It was kind of stupid for me the chose them because I dont know much about them, I could read about them, but anyones input would also be a big help. Thanks

    Who cares, the man needs some help, I mean if i compared Dida to Pele, i'd kill myself, but it doesn't matter.

    Okay, here we go.
    Ronaldo is amazing with a ball at his foot and would be more famous than Ronaldinho if he had played for a South American team, but he is stuck in the European mindset of the game. He is also known as a traitor in the country of Italy, for he chose not to play with them in the '06 World Cup, but he played for Portugal. I guess he sholud've played for Italy that year.

    Zinidine Zidane (Zuzu) had a great year and might have finished it off with a World Cup vistory had he not went head to chest for his sister, which is a joke. He had a great P.K. in the World Cup finals to tie the game up, but it wasn't enough. Zuzu is a legend in the game, but probably blew it w/ his hard head.

    apparently c.ronaldo has an italian nationality. Either way he could not have played for italy in 06 because he was capped for portugal from before.

    You can't compare another player to Zidane. He is an a class of his own.

    Zidane is a true star , he has won a World cup , a European Championship,Champions League & domestic titles with Juventus.
    Ronaldo by comparison has won very little but of course he is much younger and has every opportunity of winning more this season ( unfortunately!! )
    The most infuriating things about Ronaldo are his over elaboration & the fact that he goes to ground as if shot after being challenged !
    In short Zizu has proved himself & Ronaldo still has to do so.

    What do you have against Zidane? There is no way he is overrated. You can find all the facts and figures to prove he isn't the best, or Totti and Scholes are better, whatever, but Zidane is unique. There has never been a player like him, and that is why people love him and rate him as highly as they do.

    I agree that Zidane is overrated, but he is indeed a legend mainly because of his outstanding ability in major games. Many players will be outstanding in relatively unimportant games and disappear in the big ones. But Zidane has built a career around winning big games. That is why he is a legend.

    His record as a clutch player is also overrated, as previous major finals have proven.

    UEFA Cup 95/96 - anonymous
    Champions League 96/97 - anonymous
    Champions League 97/98 - anonymous
    1998 World Cup - good performance, two goals
    Euro 2000 - anonymous
    Champions League 01/02 - nothing aside from that goal
    2006 World Cup - sent off in disgrace

    He was the first player to lose three successive European finals.

    The three finals he lost were also earlier in his career. But after 98 final, I'm not really sure how you can say that he was anonymous in the Euro final. And what the hell does it mean "nothing aside from that goal"? There is really no point to some of your statements. How are you going to back up the claim "anonymous in Euro 2000 final"? You cannot.


    I think you just like to argue.

    titles define a great player. ha.

    Zidane is a GOD. he is one of the most balanced athletes in sports history with complete mastery of the ball. he is the best player in his position in the history of the game and possibly the best passer. the epitome of a midfielder.

    George Best didn't win much, is he also not a great player?
