"Without doubt, Ronaldinho is the most(63)player I have ever come across," says former PSG coach Luis Ferdandez. "The main(64)for any coach is that one player without discipline can hurt the whole team."
But Ronaldinho doesn’t think he has done anything wrong. "I am just a young person who enjoys(65)," he says.
