It might sound weird, but his inability to regularly score from free kicks is quite organic for him. Most of the great free-kick takers have that free-flowing improvisation in their style of playing, while Ronaldo is more about being a perfect machine, with a strict operating system, that lacks the necessary option to relax and improvise. Even when he scores from free kicks, his free kicks are usually quite direct and simple in terms of their geometry. Yes, they might be powerful and precise, but still, it's a different kind of goals compared to what, say, Dybala can deliver when he has a chance.
I disagree. Creativity and improvisation is a great bonus indeed, for example DP could score any way he wanted, GKs didnt know wtf to expect (improvisation), BUT there were certain spots where everyone and their mother knew where and how he will shoot and aint nothing nobody could do about it going in (mechanical).
I cant explain Ronaldo's fks either. It's weird for sure.

My point wasn't about creativity and improvisation when performing free kicks, making them unpredictable every time, but rather about those qualities as parts of general player's style that enable his ability to score free kicks as well. It looks like it's tied to the muscular level. CR7 is always quite rigid and tense, which makes him highly effective at what he's highly effective at (especially those stunning headers would be impossible without it), but at the same time limits him at what requires different physical conditions / abilities, such as free kicks.
You fixed nothing but your self,he is good but he is no longer in his prime,who has the most UCL freekicks? He has 50+ freekicks but his conversion ratio has been less this few years but to say his entire career he is a bad at it is a myth

Lol 1000.00 attempt ,lol am not a cr7 fan boy but why rely on freekicks instead of talking of creativity and besides no dybala to share the duty so what's the fuss. He really sucks currently at freekicks but that's not the major problem of juventus for Christ sakes Bayern has not scored a single freekicks this season but they keep scoring 5-6 goals a game.why can't this club buy creative midfielders
I hope he decides to leave at the end of the season. There's no point wasting 30m on a 36-year old version of him when the rest of the squad is mid-table level.
He already gave us a huge marketing boost and it's truly an honor to have him play in our team and be part of our history, but it's time to move on and start building a proper team like we used to do pre-Higuaín deal.

Hes not the problem. The guy who scores almost every game hardly is someone you should point your finger at, when trying to identify culprit. The real culprits sit a bit higher in the stands, employees who keep buying players without character and with questionable talent, who fail to recognize our priorities time and again.
Too much money has been squandered in recent years, while our midfield has never looked worse, devoid of any creativity, character, grit. If someone is consistently making bad decisions, having more money at disposal wont fix it. In fact, they would have more resources for even more mistakes.

Agreed but I'll take that chance. This current team isn't winning jack shit.
A complete overhaul is needed. We need full backs, an entire midfield, and a strong bench. You cannot build anything serious when Cristiano takes +30m off your budget year in year out. And it's not even the unstoppable CR7, he's 36 years old.
Also, his weakass teammates are so terrified of him to the point they pass the ball to him even if a shot at goal is clearly the best option. I've seen it way too many times this season, specially without Dybala featuring a lot.
Let's help him get his capocannoniere title and start building a 'team'.
