He's got some of the best technique and hold-up play that I've seen of any modern striker. Merely an 'excellent finisher' wouldn't work in Bayern's system at all. Besides his technique, he's also great at pressing, wins almost all his (aerial) duels, drops wide when needed... Now this is not a...
I remember this. It was right after Blatter called Messi a good boy and Ronaldo a commander. Then all of Ronaldo's fanboys went beserk en FIFA who were still working together with Ballon d'Or extended the deadline just because Ronaldo scored vs Sweden in the play-off. Shameful.
Just stating what I think and what many people think, which is that under normal circumstances Ronaldo's record would've fallen Lewandowski in 2020.
I wasn't saying anything about how worthy Ronaldo's record is...
And it's a known fact that Ronaldo will play meaningless matches against...
Bayern never play their strongest once qualified.
In Lewandowski's 2020 campaign he actually had 15 goals and was rested in the final group game. Also no 2nd leg vs us andLyon.
In normal circumstances Ronaldo's record would've certainly fallen.
I doubt he will play the next two UCL matches...
His only very great save in an important CL KO game that I remember was in 2015 vs a masked Lewandowski.
I don't remember any since. Almost 7 years ago.
The likes of Messi, Lewandowski, Ronaldo, Neymar are too old.
So I'm guessing that leaves Mbappe and Haaland?
I where how you rank other young talents like Pedri, Bellingham, Fati...
Also what about current world class players like Salah or Kimmich?
Juve was a CL contender before he arrived.
Several CL humiliations later and he quickly fled.
They're barely any worse with or without him despite him leaving last minute without ability to get a replacement.
Utd which were on a good road to recovery are now dependent on a 36 year old, and all...
Funny to see how dependent Utd have become on Ronaldo in such a short timespan. Suddenly all of Ronaldo's teammates are shit too and he's carrying them. Same pattern we saw at Juve. All of his teammates were suddenly shit and holding him back.
I guess the last minute signing of Ronaldo hurt him.
Ronaldo excels in a more direct approach. Sancho isn't the quick paced one touch player to make Ronaldo flourish, rather he has a slower buildup much like Iniesta had.
I'm guessing they had a good plan for Sancho but threw that out of the...
