Pretty Good
When Spanish football club Barcelona paid US$35 million for Ronaldinho last summer, they weren’t buying a pretty face. "I am(51)," admits the Brazilian superstar. "But everyone has got a different kind of beauty. What I(52)have is charm."

"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.
