Kaka, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Romario. Why do these grwat players fizzle out so young? Injuries? Party lifestyle? Football agents and owners of clubs. Convince a young player he is the 'Bees Knees' then flog them around too line there own pockets. The young player then does not have time to develop at a club. Was not like that in Pele's days.  |

He's 34, but he has not fizzled out. Of course he has. Moved to Flamengo at 30 after being crap at AC Milan. How much more can you fizzle? |

All of those players you mentioned have things in common:
- Really early bloomers
- Played for Real Madrid and Barcelona; Unless you sign for United, the only way from those two is down.

Ramario was stil playing at 40 but he'd long fizzled. He played 4 games for Adelaide United but was the biggest waste of space I've ever seen live. |

That's the other thing. A lot of South Americans like/want to go back before the real end of their careers. Leaving European football always seems like a a step down but it would be like Rio going back to West Ham when he was 31/32, rather than Henry going back to Arsenal on loan for a swansong.
