i dont particulary like him,but he is good,it was laughable that rooney was faster than him,i think rooney had 1 better acceleration and ronaldo had 1 better top speed,i soon changed that.ronaldos pace should be 94+ and his dribbling the same,but consistincey and shooting lets him down.

cheers for posting tho,i wouldnt of know who was on the cover if you hadnt

It is a very smart move by Konami in fact 'coz Cristiano is the #1 selling player atm. 2nd comes Rooney then 3rd is Becks. This should definitely boost the PES 2008 sales.

Are you sure =|
I mean I would have thought the most marketable players in football were
Beckham and Ronaldinho
then like Henry, Kaka, C.Ronaldo.

I'd say UK wise Rooney would be top 3!
european wise top 5!
For me!

TOP 5 (Europe)
Becks, Henry, Cristiano (NOW) Ronaldinho, Rooney

According to a study done in spain, Cristiano Ronaldo comes first, Rooney second, and Ronaldinho third. Translated off a portugese site.

Original
Cristiano Ronaldo é o jogador mais popular do Mundo, diz estudo

Cristiano Ronaldo é o jogador mais mediático do Mundo, conclui um estudo universitário em Espanha. O jogador português destronou Ronaldinho Gaúcho e surge ainda à frente de Wayne Rooney ou David Beckham.

No que diz respeito aos treinadores, José Mourinho surge na segunda posição, atrás de Alex Ferguson, o técnico de Cristiano Ronaldo no Manchester United. O relatório do estudo, conduzido pelo Grupo de Investigação de Economia, Desporto e Intangíveis da Universidade de Navarra, tem como principal conclusão precisamente o crescimento mediático do campeonato inglês, com destaque para o Manchester United.

Cristiano tem um valor mediático de 12,6 por cento, contra 12,3 do seu companheiro de equipa Wayne Rooney e 11,9 de Ronaldinho Gaúcho. No quarto lugar surge Beckham, mas o inglês «ganha» o prémio para o grande acontecimento mediático da época: a sua transferência para o LA Galaxy. O valor de Cristiano Ronaldo, conclui ainda o estudo, é 13 vezes superior ao de um futebolista médio.

O estudo chega a estas conclusões através de uma fórmula que mede a atenção dos media (notoriedade) e o interesse dos adeptos (popularidade). A primeira é medida com base nas notícias do jogador e do seu clube publicadas em inglês, espanhol, alemão, italiano, francês e português. A segunda é calculada a partir do número de páginas da Internet que fazem referência ao jogador e ao seu clube, junto com alguns filtros para corrigir imprecisões.

Cristiano Ronaldo is the player most popular of the World, says study

Cristiano Ronaldo is the player mediático of the World, concludes a university study in Spain. The Portuguese player destronou Ronaldinho Gaucho and still appears to the front of Wayne Rooney or David Beckham.

In that he says respect to the trainers, Jose Mourinho appears in the second position, behind Alex Ferguson, the technician of Cristiano Ronaldo in the Manchester United. The report of the study, lead for the Group of Inquiry of Economy, Sport and Intangible of the University of Navarrese, has as main conclusion necessarily the mediático growth of the English championship, with prominence for the Manchester United.

Cristiano has a mediático value of 12,6 percent, against 12,3 of its friend of it equips Wayne Rooney and 11,9 of Ronaldinho Gaucho. In the room place Beckham appears, but the English "gains" the prémio for the great mediático event of the time: its transference for the LA Galaxy. The value of Cristiano Ronaldo, still concludes the study, is 13 times superior to the one of an average futebolista.

The study it arrives at these conclusions through a formula that measures the attention of measured them (notoriety) and the interest of the adepts (popularity). The first one is measured on the basis of the notice of the published player and its club in English, Spaniard, German, Italian, Frenchman and Portuguese. Second it is calculated from the number of pages of the InterNet that make reference to reference to the player and its club, together with some filters to correct imprecisões.

i think people finally dont care about beckham as a marketing tool anymore,i arent a fan but even fans must get sick of seeing him everywhere.it annoyed me when he wasnt playing well,this season turned around for him,he would still be seen doing adverts left right and centre,must be annoying to manage,sub par performances coz of adverts when he should prolly been working on his game.

does this mean konami might have nike on board as I would be amazed if adidas and reebok who were involved in pes 6 would allow ronaldo's bright white nike boots kicking a nike ball and wearing a nike kit. It would be brilliant if they were because you could use the nike balls in all matches and not just the spanish ones

He has a Nike advertising campaign which has started recently. Don't forget that he is English, so is over hyped greatly.

I mean if you're gonna get someone to do your toothpaste campaign, I think ronaldinho would be #1 on my list of spokespeople... I wonder if dentists charge him more

So does the likes of Ronaldinho and co. Also you get Adidas' 'Impossible Is Nothing' campaign so you'd think some of they players are bigger than Rooney aswell... strange one that is
I bet if you had up shirt sales, and all the sales of things the players rare involved in Rooney wouldnt be in the top 5.
