Lol wtf? CR is Real's goal top goal scorer. At the end of the day without his goals, what players like Modric & DiMaria do is irrelevant.
They look so lost when he isn't out there with them. And Bale is the complete opposite of consistent. He was lucky to score during the CDR final and CL because before those he wasted a million chances. And if you watch some of their games, he is always missing chances. His clutch goals make him appear to have a hand in the game when its the opposite.
I'm not sad he is injured. He'll end up being ok. Just needs a rest. This actually makes me think Real will go in for Falcao again which would suck for opponents because they'll have an actual striker when CR doesn't play. They can't depend on Benz for goals.
Our win rate without him is very good. He also didn't contribute with his apparent one contribution, goals, in the CL. Against BD, Bayern, and Atletico Madrid he made little to no difference with his goals.
It will take sometime to adjust our team without him but we can rise beyond his limitations, especially with someone more vicious than Benzema in front of the goal.
Its sad to see Di Maria leave instead.
