Cristiano Ronaldo - v1

[TornAndFrayed]

Cristiano stands a better chance of winning the Ballon d'or next year playing for newcastle than winning it this year with Madrid.

Think it will be PSG. Just got a feeling he won't go back to United.

 

[Morten]

He has been in a bad form for a while, but i certainly wont write him of. He could very well go back to the goal machine he is. In fact, he has had plenty of chances, but he has been more wasteful than usual.

 

[BarcaOG]

He'll net three or four tap ins and a penalty soon. Then disappear for the next three matches. Repeat.

Me either and reports of his demise could be to soon. Certainly don't want to tempt fate just yet!

What you don't get Morten is that at this point, we're really hoping for him to come back to scoring so everything stays focused on him and he stays at RM for another 2 or 3 season fucking up the entire chemistry of the team and keeping it from evolving, wasting all the talents around him

Go go go Cristiano !!

It´s all dependant of which players are playing alongside him and in what form they are.

 

[ThwiX]

Old Ronaldo would never travel home and skip a NT game when there's a possibility of scoring a couple of goals. So something has definitely changed.

 

[CatalinR10]

it's probably his knee

 

[MaxY]

Well Portugal has already qualified and he probably realizes that RM is the better bet to help him win Ballon d'Or. Scoring some goals vs PSG could do wonders.

 

[Neymessi]

He isn't going to win the ballond'or imo..even if he continues scoring like he is right now.

 

[MaxY]

Before CR7, Portugal only qualified for 3 out of 17 World Cups and 3 out of 11 EUROs. With CR7, Portugal reached every major tournament. 6 out of 6 possible tournaments.
And people say that he doesn't perform for Portugal. He has a mediocre team around him and yet you can see a huge difference.

 

[TornAndFrayed]

Yes. That hat trick against Sweden was ballon d'or worthy, Messi can only dream of dragging his country through play-offs

 

[Blaugrana Bull]

"Mediocre team". That is a huge myth. Compare Portugal to the teams they lost against in the last tournaments. They have not achieved anything special.
2004 was their best chance to win a tournament (when Cristiano was very young and just a rather small edition to a really good team) but Greece were able to pull off one of the biggest upsets in football history.

 

[NotInHere]

Portugal plays horrible though, I've watched most of their matches for the past year or so and they always look like a team that barely pulls through even against inferior teams. Cristiano plays horrible too, he doesn't get a pass just because his teammates don't link up well with him.
