Quaresma (for those who do not know him yet) is a 28 year old winger who currently plays for Besiktas. There was a time when he and C.Ronaldo were considered very close in terms of potential and performance.
In fact, reports have also said that Alex Ferguson had some difficulty in deciding which to sign when he eventually ended up with signing C.Ronaldo from sporting Lisbon. Ronaldo moved from strength to strength from that point on so did all other players like Messi, Robinho and the like.
Quaresma failed to improve on his great potential and hence even after having played for clubs like Barcelona, Porto, Chelsea, Inter and Besiktas he remains relatively an average and unknown player.
How many of you even knew that he is included in the Euro 2012 squad for Portugal but has not featured in a single game so far.
The fact that he was compared with Ronaldo and even was better at some aspects of the game than Ronaldo says a lot considering that Ronaldo took England by storm when he moved to Manchester United in 2003-2004 I think.
Quaresma may be was just happy with Porto and hence never really threatened to become the player of the year and now when I look back to his past, he never really was competing to even become a world class player let alone becoming the best in the world.
Ronaldo and Messi are now considered amongst the greatest players of their generation while Quaresma is a nobody.
What are the reasons? As always, amongst many here are mytop3reasonswhyQuaresmadidnotbecometheworld class players that he should have become due to his technique on the ball and his speed.
- The first and the foremost reason why he could not reach the levels that Robinho (though he also reached far less than what he should have considering that he was considered the most complete player with his feet amongst him,Ronaldo and Messi), Ronaldo and Messi is that Quaresma just never had the head for it. He did not know what he wanted to do with his career and he did not know where he wanted to take his game to. He did not know the areas he had to improve on in order to become the best. His agent did not get him to clubs that suited his style of play. While on the field, Quaresma always went for the spectacular and was very flamboyantandbecauseofthatdisciplinewasalwaysaproblemforhim.Onthefieldhelookedoutoffocus,outofthegameandjustdidnotknowhowtomakeupmovesinthe

Whatever the reasons where,If u closely examine them
He was too young and didn;t got much Playing Time at Barca
At Inter he was flop,They way mourinho used him was actually wrong,He didn’t usses wingers and he even Destroyed MANCINI who was a great at Roma
aT CHELSEA,hah he played 3 matches while being substitute And Assisted Alex in FA Cup.
He didn’t stayed ther because Scolari was fired
All he need is luck,he’s is Unique player
I hope he gets another chance so he might prove himself as a great player
The way defenders dances infront of him! <3 Even stronger defenders as Maldini,Carragher,Agger,Terry and many more!

I dont give a damn what others think,He's one of the best player and I admire his skills!
Too much bullcrap… is it his great ability to play? Is it his looks? That I don’t know. I certainly know that he was one the best players to ever set foot in teams like Inter, Chelsea, Porto, Besiktas (certainly) and even the great Barcelona. Managers were the cause for his downfall, he still remains to me one of the best in his own way so… Can’t blame his physic and charisma. But his influences and some times you’ve got to wonder… Do managers look for the players ability? Or do they search for the best looks for the team?
when you tell about body strength on quaresma he could probably stroll past messi and ronaldo on body strength..he was and always has been physically stronger than ronaldo…he has great crossing ability..he can shoot long range…his dribbling is still one of the best in the world alongside ronaldo,messi and ronaldinho.. quaresma at sporting was better than ronaldo,he was even touted to be one of the best of all time.. his problem has always been the individuality… at inter he used to play as team player,it looked like he didn’t like it… when he was in porto he single handedly took the game to the opponents.he was one of the best players in the champions league back then.. quaresma was never a quick player…he has just above average speed… i have been following q7 since 2005… so i know what i’m talking about… one more problem is that he looses his head whenever he looses the ball… hope he has leart his lesson…hope he can still achieve the stuff he was destined for…forca quaresma…
you are right 100% 😀 😀 😀Â
