Ronaldo needs to have more and more fallow weeks in order to remain the most productive when you need him most. That means we probably should expect a lot of lackadaisical weeks in the early and mid-season where he delivers little and everybody wonders WTF is wrong with him, is he over the hill. Well, he is kind of ... until he saves his physical strength to deliver in the crunch time at the end of a season.
He'll deliver in CL all year long, as he always does, but no doubt he'll have numerous stinkers in the league, especially in the first half of the year.
As long as Higuain is the only attacker to leave, we should be just fine and dandy. Dybala is more prolific around the goal than any other Madrid attacker, and we'd have Mandzu, Costa, Bernadeschi, Cuadrado to chip in as well.
However, even if there's lots of smoke right now, I don't believe there's any fire to this at all. Exor/ownership has shown no inclination to pump money of this kind into the club before and I don't really see it happening now.
Perhaps though this was the endgame all along, use Beppe penny-pinching for 7 years to solidify our spot as a European contender again, then go full retard and break the bank for glory.

He lived in Manchester for 6 years. I think he’ll be fine.
Turin is a shit city that rich people don't like though. Cristiano wouldn't come here for a holiday let alone move here.
