Christiano Ronaldo

[CILi]

Out on the pitch, he can get pretty demonstrative emotionally (which has me wonder EIE > SLE); but, then again, that might just be part of his act. (Which, then again, kinda sounds Beta NF.)

Whatever the case, MAJOR man-crush.

[FDG]

Ehh no in his case I don't think so. He seems like an EJ type (even from his style of play - wingers are rarely EP types, better suited for central attack - you can compare him to Ronaldo, the brazilian one, which is ESFp and has a typical pattern for central attackers). He might be some kind of Ni-EJ, I think.

[1981slater]

He seems Se leading...
...since he plays for Real Madrid, he's on TV now and then...
and he's a beta quadra member for sure, with weak logic, stiff movements and emotional outbursts...EIE Ni

[1981slater]

Hey! I had never thought about it! It seems to work!

[FDG]

Hey! I had never thought about it! It seems to work!

Eheh, I think wingers' position require a sustainedly high flow of energy, while central attackers' require even higher-intensity yet shorter (time-wise) bursts. IJs and IPs are good central midfielders and defenders (I guess EJs can be good sweepers too).

[Trevor]

He might be some kind of Ni-EJ, I think.

Last time i checked Ganin had him as ENFj in his VI-gallery, for whatever it's worth. Btw, what is your opinion on Beckham's type?

[Trevor]

Also, FDG, what about goalkeepers? I know 3 of them (and 4th might be ENTj, not sure) who are ENTjs and was wondering might the fact be type-related.

Here's Butina, the only one who is a professional amongst those 3:

Maybe someone can find this useful.

Good definition! I was recalling the games I play with my friends and most of the time Ejs and Ips cover the wings, Ijs tend to be central defenders and Eps strikers ("attacante").
I was either the goalkeeper or the central striker. Good times

Beckham is Fi-ENFp

[eunice]

Beckham is Fi-ENFp

I think Beckham is Fe-INFp, and Victoria Beckham is Ti-ISTj.

[Beautiful sky]

ISTp

[UDP]

Definitely EIE male description as per that interview.

(the kind of I beat the shit out of for being such a man whore towards good girls )

Ronaldo is definitely not SLI, as well.

[UDP]

If this is true, It sounds like he has more of a victim style approach in his erotic attitude. I could really see him as Gilly's identical.

Yes exactly.

[FDG]

Lol, what a funny article, ahha

[Galen]

I don't know if it's this guy's bone structure or if it really is VI-related or what, but he's reminding me of Dave Franco, who I have as Fi-ISFj. Se valuing seems pretty apparent either way.

[enigmadream]

hot

Crispy...




Oh and Crispy approves of the admiration but frowns upon the lies about his longevity




In all seriousness, I don't see him as Delta. If he is Beta and Kaka is EII then I don't see him being SLE. EIE is a possibility. He can be quite dramatic. I prefer Messi but then again I may be biased since I love FC Barcelona's style.

In terms of type and posititioning, that is interesting about football players. I think Pique (sorry don't know how to add special characters with my keyboard) may be an SLE (yes people say he looks like a donkey but to me he is dreamy - fun personality, those eyes, oh and he's a sweetie - "The only thing I can say is that I don’t like it when people with disabilities or handicaps are made fun of.") although he gets embarrassed by being the centre of attention, I remember that game against Lichtenstein where he and Ramos kept trying to score goals. Hilarious.

[1981slater]

I think Pique

Piqué

[FDG]

Piqué

Lol a spanish grammar nazi, that's peculiar

[enigmadream]

Hahaha...yeah I think said I didn't know how to do special characters with my keyboard. But I should have copied and pasted. What's done is done.

[Wittmont]

Ronaldo's LSE, with a fantastically inflated ego.

Wayne Rooney is SLE.

[enigmadream]

LSE? Well that would explain his relationship with Kaka. Hmmm...

Rooney does make a better SLE than Cristiano.

[1981slater]

Once more: Cristiano EIE, Rooney SLE, Kaká Fi ego

[enigmadream]

All this talk about mirrors reminds me of this Crackovia skit -

Translation taken from here

Cristiano is feeling down asking himself "why am I always so unlucky???"
Guti goes over and asks if he's sulking because he couldn't score in his last game.

Then Cristiano is like, "No! I was just plucking my eyebrows and accidentally made one bigger than the other! "

Guti tries to console him and suggests he should look into the magic mirror. Ronaldo agrees but asks the it to be gentle because he has sensitive skin

---

Cristiano: Mirror mirror, tell me - who is the player with the smoothest skin in the world?
Mirror: You, Cristiano.

Cristiano: Mirror mirror, who is the best looking forward in the league?
Mirror: You, Cristiano.

*then Guti takes a turn*

Guti: Mirror mirror, who has the blondest highlights in the league?
Mirror: Sergio Ramos

*back to Ronaldo*

Cristiano: Mirror mirror, who is the best player in the world?
- Messi appears in the mirror -
Messi: This... the mirror couldn't tell you, jijijijijijiji!!!!

[Shagbag The Wizard]

God, it annoys me when people are this effortlessly hot, lol.

Really hard to VI him just from pix tho.

[goggles]

Tied with Lionel Messi as the greatest soccer player in the world right now. I type him as LSI because he kinda looks like my brother (first pic).

LSI's have a very poor reputation. They have been mentioned before in a few threads and never in a good way (Nazi's, evil, German national soccer team... Anders Behring Breivik) and so I've made a thread to counter all the LSI hatred going on.

[FDG]

No, he is EIE-Ni, a very clear one. Look at his primadonna personality, his approach to soccer and to life in general - terribly extraverted. Plus, he's clearly Se/Ni - excessive focus on his appearance, trying to make up for Si PoLR; competitivness but with a tinge of holding back (Ni, not Se).
A good rule of thumb: wingers are rarely static types, especially IJs.

[Trevor]

Very interesting. What positions do you think IJ types are especially good for?

[goggles]

Defensive ones.

Look at his primadonna personality, his approach to soccer and to life in general

Yeah I can see that happening. My basis for his being LSI is just that one I-don't-take-shit-from-anyone look he has going in the first pic. Not in an unfriendly or a rude way, just a passive, slightly bored or annoyed look.

Actually that and I saw something and I can't remember if it was before a game or after but it was when he was with Manchester United and he was mucking around with Anderson and I remember thinking he had some serious going. Anderson was doing a mock interview and Cristian basically told him to shut up. It wasn't in that whiny eie way either and Anderson was like, "ok".

[Anglas]

I typed him SHxT, but he can be EIE. My guess would be ESE

[FDG]

Well in his first picture he just has some kind of focussed look. I look like that too when I'm thinking about something, but I'm still not very LSI.

Anglas: I think he's kind of obviously a resolute type.

[1981slater]

BTW CR7=EIE FTW

Speaking on LSIs, check the differences between LSIs and EIEs

Gonzalo Higuain: LSI, no-nonsense look




K. Benzama, LSI

[Anglas]

well he is selfish

[goggles]

I don't think he is leading because whenever he does break down and start crying it prompts millions of people in the world to basically think, "fucking hell, stop crying". We can't sympathize with him because it looks like (and is, although not to him) an overreaction.

Although I'm sure he is not that way in real life his emotions seem to range only from slightly annoyed to very annoyed and despair. People dislike him for that more than anything else, I think.

An "only-me-first" attitude is usually an asset in the sporting world eg. John McEnroe (could he be leading?).

An person has a wide range of emotions that he/she wears very plainly and very naturally. They are, initially anyway, popular and charismatic because their emotions can readily be seen and we can quickly relate to them (that's my theory). That and having ethics in their ego block (is that right?) means that they better understand what motivates us, what makes us hate, fear and love, what makes us feel envious or jealous () or what makes us rage or cry or feel joy . This would apply for any ethical type over a logical one.

An example of who I think is leading would be Gabriel Batistuta. I've made another thread about him and he has some strong going in almost every single picture (not just my pics but pics on Google as well). He is usually wearing a big smile or a big frown or he's shouting at something (I know, he just scored, so what?). He has very few pictures where he expressionless unlike Andrea Pirlo who usually looks like this:


I'm pretty sure Batistuta is an ese because he looks almost exactly like someone I know for a fact is an ese. On a different note however, it would appear according to wiki that Mr. Batistuta has some interest in coaching the Australian national team.

[mfckr]

[goggles]

Yeah I get that.

But Pep Guardiola cried when he received an award for something... Ayrton Senna liked to have a good cry every now and then but that's because people in his sport actually died ...

Roger Federer is a serial crier. But we usually associate him with skill and class while poor Cristian gets picked on?

Pete Sampras is another great crier. Tiger Woods and David Beckham (maybe I shouldn't be including those two?).

Cristiano Ronaldo is a modern day great. Years from now we will look back and call the present day the Messi and Ronaldo years. Or maybe we will just call it the Messi years, and we will just compare his scoring and assist stats to Ronaldo's who is the only player right now who comes close (or is it better?). No one wants to see an athlete cry I agree, it's awkward, but the athletes mentioned before are branded "sensitive" or emotional.

Emotion (even if it's acting) is cool and respectable off the field.

But falling over every fifteen seconds, writhing in pain, on the field? ...A little less so.

[Anglas]

He not dive and cry anymore, barcelona players replace him. I heard that dani alves is nominated for oskar award.

[MisterNi]

So he's an ENFj because he takes dives on the field and cries? Sorry but that's just asinine. So, I'm not a fan of non-American football (soccer) but of what I've heard of Ronaldo, he doesn't really act in a way that's weird for a soccer player. I haven't read any evidence that would point away from ISTj, FWIW.

[FDG]

Guys stop discussing, he's ENFj.
