I don't think you understood the context of what I wrote, not many could come back from that type of Injury period. Look at the Scar in the Video I embed.
In 02 The Weight was a product of the Injury/Rehab
After 02, he got lazy ... He got redemption for 98 and didn't work as hard as once did but it didn't catch up to him until very recently.
I was watching a video of him playing in Brazil, he was still amazing.
Someone on another board wrote, well could he have done it vs Blackburn? People forget he was doing things in Brazil when Brazil was by and far the #1 domestic league in the world. If he went to England he would have partied harder, smashed more Prostitutes and Scored more goals, probably make him an even bigger legend.
If he played in this era, forget it his speed and size would have produced more goals & he never dove
The EPL is not the end all be all, he did it Brazil, Spain, & Italy when those leagues were better than the EPL
