Obviously yes. Waddle is the best winger the world has known since the late 80s. Extremely gifted and very succesful with his teams.
C. ronaldo on the other hand floats along with a great team, contributing only when he pleases...leaving the hard work for Rooney and others.

The music is clearly late 80s/early 90s nostalgia as well. roud:

Lol, Waddle was great at his peak, but this comparison won't do him any favours.

 

[Scarf]

Judging by that video, C.Ronaldo is definately better. I never saw Waddle, I started watching football when Robbie Fowler scored five goals on his debut (91/92/93) - so he was a little before my time.

 

[Freddy Adu]

Waddle was much better. And had much better hair.

 

[sorcerer]

Another useless thread, Waddle is not even close & I am not the biggest fan of C.Ronaldo.

What is your obsession with Ronaldo? Did he underperform sexually on you and now you're out to ruin him?

 

[Roy Race]

Ok, maybe it's not meant to be a serious question, but...

Waddle was MORE of a winger than CRon - he hugged the touchline and came inside less. He couldn't finish and had less footwork and trickery, but was better at the classical winger's swerve to go outside the full-back.

Why don't you ask whether the John Barnes at Liverpool contributed more to his team and was a better forward than CRon? There's no obvious answer to that one.

Chris Waddle was'nt just a great winger, he was a woooonderful singer too : roud:

this goal was better than Barnesy's against Brazil.

Waddle better dribbler
Ronaldo better goalscorer

Underlines my point perfectly: Waddle was a mercurial player at his best, not so Ronaldo.

 

[Rob]

Waddle was the ultimate Steve McManaman, really.

He's more classy to watch than Ronaldo I guess, but Ronaldo has absolutely everything. Maybe Waddle can move the ball in tighter spaces but Ronaldo is never moving slowly enough to really find out.

 

[Jern Lizardhous]

McMananam was more of a ball carrier than a dribbler, he couldn't make defenders look pathetic and slow like Waddle could.

also McManaman basically lost the plot once Madrid started paying him fortunes, so he only really had half a career.

...leaving the hard work

football is not a construction site muppet, Ronaldo has scored a lot of goals and gave many assists thats what counts. Thats the hard part of football scoring.
