He's not a fluke, Lopetegui and Solari destroyed the team and there is also no motivation left in the team after winning everything. No coaches is going to succeed there for a moment.

Plus even while having the best team, if you don't have good tactics you won't win the CL and certainly not three times in a row
How did they destroy the team. Without Ronaldo they seem lost on the pitch. I think thats what happens when the whole team for 9 years played for him. Another factor in CHL is VAR. Referees did really help Real in these CHLs, forget about our games, they robbed Bayern in two occasions.

CR7, is so good. Real Madrid does not look like a dangerous team since he left, even average teams go to Bernabeu for to take 3 points. Real was forced to change 3 coaches and Ronaldo proved that Zidane was just a lucky fluke coach. Glad we dodged that bullet.

I agree more with your next post from this thread but frankly, you just don’t win 3 CL’s in a row by fluke (maybe with some help from the refs aswell yes but tactically speaking Zidane managed to set up that team into maximizing it’s potential)... otherwise yes, they had an incredible team and Ronaldo was the cherry on top of it, however it was expected to see them have a couple of transitional seasons post that, no coach would have made a difference, complacency and sufficiency stepped in, especially in the form of the most crucial of players getting washed up. Even their transfer strategy lately suggests they are already trying to gather the pieces for the next era, other then Hazard who is relativey proven at the highest level all of their transfers post Ronaldo have been young prospects with considerable high price tags.

Ronaldo: Juve changed for better
By Football Italia staff



Cristiano Ronaldo believes Juventus have changed for the better under Maurizio Sarri. “We’ve improved, I’m very happy with how things are going.”
Ronaldo has scored five goals in Juve’s first nine competitive games with Sarri at the helm, and the Portuguese is enjoying having the shackles taken off.
“We’ve changed with Sarri to improve,” he said at a Press conference for tomorrow’s Champions League clash with Lokomotiv Moscow.
“I have more freedom. We’ve changed a lot, we’re improving and there are still things to fix but I’m very happy. [baseless conclusion - too soon to tell if we have “really” changed]
“We did a great job with Allegri, but with Sarri we’ve improved. [baseless conclusion] My position has changed a but.
“I always try to occupy the areas on the pitch where I feel best. I like to have freedom of movement.
“We must fight to assert ourselves again in the League and try to win the Champions League.
“This is our objective. Collective results are important. As for the Ballon d’Or, I have nothing to say about it.
“It’s not important whether I win it or not. If there are individual awards, it’ll be the result of results with the team.
“Now we have a match to play, I’m thinking about that and nothing else. I like what he asks us to do on the field.
Compared to the past, we’re creating more chances. [basess conclusion - factually can’t prove...too early to tell]. We’re having great possession and we move around differently.
“I’m very happy with how things are going with the new Coach. I’m satisfied and happy with what we’re doing.”
Ronaldo recently made history when he scored his 700th career goal, but he also suggested his career could be winding down.
“Seven-hundred goals are already in the past. Now we must immediately think about what’s to come. Like I said before, personal records aren’t the most important thing.
“I want to win with Juventus and Portugal. Age isn’t important to me, it’s just a number.
“I’ll keep going for as long as I feel like I can do what I want. As for my teammates, we’re a great team, where everyone makes themselves ready for when the Coach needs them.
“I enjoy playing with my teammates. They’re all very strong. Dybala showed he could score goals when he was called into question before.
“It’s also happened with Higuain, but it doesn’t matter. We all must be ready.”

How dare he?
We have to wait for four years before we can make any conclusions.

What does he know anyway. He is to dumb to recognise the hugh downgrade we made with the classless chainsmooking hobo.

Not as baseless as your baseless opinions in general
Just think about it, by your logic suddenly debating Sarri’s impact on Cuadrado as not being a ready made fact in being better/reborn after only a month of working together compared to how he performed under Allegri during several seasons is the same with aknowledging or not if the team is going through visible changes and aiming to improve, with a new coach probably implementing new methods and asking different things from certain players. Why even mix everything up like that?


This only happens to reiterate what i was saying back in a previous post.
Man, i genuinly thought for some time that you are clueless and baseless in all your debates and conclusions but now you’ve really managed to irrevocably convince me of your lack of comprehension.

Have to wait for the next coach to come first. Only at the end do our conclusions really matter.
Y’all are rather funny with your little jokes here and there i give you that but it still doesn’t change anything away from the fact your opinions on the debate at hand are just baseless and at most reactionary based on your current agenda. Cheers.

Where do you disagree? @Hustini.
