Why Kaka is different from Messi and Ronaldo

Funny thing about the so called best three in the world, while Kaka put’s consistent and awesome performances both in the club and on the national squad, the two wingers are in very commonly criticized by their displays when playing for caps and extremely attacked by their countryman’s.
Obviously, we can’t point their lack of will or suddenly loss of talent – because nobody wants more a win then the players that step up to field. So, what make the difference?

1 - Kaka plays with a bunch of players that are also world top stars – Júlio César, Maicon, Lúcio, Robinho or Luís Fabiano are in the elite of their respective positions – and while Messi and Ronaldo have some teammates that are also on top – Kun Agüero, Javier Mascherano, Ricardo Carvalho or Deco – all eyes are on this two stars. For media and opponent defenses when playing against Portugal or Argentina will basically try to stop CR9 and Messi – if you’re well succeed, you’ll secure at least one point.

2 – The position on field, Kaka is an old fashion playmaker, always on center field and all the players are eager to give him the ball, they now he’ll push the right cord to put the team in play. On the other end as wingers that usually go to the box, passing the ball to the Portuguese or Argentinean means the end of the road, they rarely pass the ball – or they score or they’ll put it thru the end line – adding more drama to Diego Maradona and Carlos Queiroz, because they’re both on a no-goal streak.

3 – A different mentality an approach to the game that makes Kaka a leader on the pitch and that tends to make Messi and Ronaldo a split factor. When things go poorly the Brazilian his the first to star on defending and trying to serve the other players with scoring opportunities, the two prima donnas never defend and all they’ll do when the team is in trouble is to try and solve everything on a sole way, marking direct free kicks from the center field, aiming for direct corners and other lame moves like that.

Tip: Without a doubt three of the best in the world but what can really explain Kaka’s high performance in Brazil, and Messi’s and Ronaldo’s poor ones on theirs national squads? We’ve heard Deco becoming offended on the Portuguese football chairman said they’ve increased the prize money, but we can’t stop from wondering…
