Ronaldino for Arsenal

A local newspaper has reported that Ronaldino is interested to play for Wenger in a bid to improve himself as a player. He sees the Professor as the man to guide his career to the next stage.

Although Dino (nickname for him from his loyal fans) maintains that he is happy and enjoying himself at Barcelona, there remains a lingering flame to join the EPL to prove that his tricks are not just for show. Dino wants to be able to rub shoulders with players like Henry and Gilberto as they are good friends via their Nike commitments and National duties respectively. He also wants to be show that he is able to handle the cold, hard defending of the British style and run rings around John Terry or Rio Ferdinard.

However, there are whispers that things are not so positive for the talented playmaker. Rumor has it that the Barcelona camp is divided by jealousy. Dino is not happy with certain team mates performance and vice versa. Being a person who is all about friendship and fun, the pressure is making it an unpleasant place for him to stay.

This is good news for the Gunners as we desperately need a STAR player to share the weight of expectations with Henry. With Gilberto ,Toure and Gallas providing support and some of the younger ones (RVP, Theo, Fabregas and Djourou) coming of age, the Gunners might finally be able to challenge for the league title.
