Roberto Carlos :(

The great man has retired. Appreciate his career here:

[OneMoSalah 8,794]

I remember we were linked with him at one point a few years back, I think we had Ashley still though so it was probably a false rumor.

His goal vs France will be remembered all my life. What a goal.

@, We were linked in 2004 when Jose took over, in hindsight it would not have been a bad idea considering Wayne Bridge hardly featured for 2 years after that and Del Horno was utter crap.

Great fullback, him and Cafu were complete in every sense of the word.

[Santiago. 1,500]

Greatest left-back i've ever witnessed, goes straight into my all star team.

[TorontoChelsea 4,064]

Didn't even know he was still playing. Fantastic and thrilling player. To me, after Maldini, the second best LB I've seen.

[TrueChelseaBlue 105]

One word to sum it up.. LEGEND

[Milan 17,862]

I would have never wanted to stand against his free-kick in the wall!

Roberto Carlos is some name, indeed.

[Duppy Conqueror 1,494]

with the after his name in the title i thought the guy died or had cancer or something.

great attacking LB. more of a wingback really. i`d say there`s been better LB`s but he`s been the best wingback. certainly in my lifetime.

like Ryan said. that goal against France will always be remembered.

Another great footballer retires..

I personally prefer his second goal in that video to the famous free kick that he scored against France. Stunning goal.

[robdog 2,084]

Awesome player. IMHO he set the standard for all LB's today. Like many have said, dude was a wingback, but he could play d when needed.

Roberto, sua presença será perdida de campo

@Semia Roberto Carlos was actually very poor defensively but world class going forward. He's nowhere near the greatest left-back you have witnessed..... THERE IS A BETTER ONE PLAYING FOR THE TEAM YOU SUPPORT !

[capriccioso 2,545]

I personally prefer his second goal in that video to the famous free kick that he scored against France. Stunning goal.

But the second goal was just a cross gone wrong, and the keeper was awful. It wasn't predetermined, planned or executed surgically anything like the French goal.

Having said all that, it was a lot more spectacular than the free kick!
