This is what happens when you make a 36 year old play back to back games without rest. No shit he was off. In RM he was as fresh as baby for CL games.
He was visibly physically and mentally exhausted. He ain't in his 20s yet plays more than them 20 year olds...
Anyways, Juve need to lose everything this season to get that hunger back. Then rebuild midfield.
Ronaldo can play until 42.
Well, its not easy benching him, his vagina starta to hurt if you try to give him a rest. God forbid you decide to sub him out at the 70th minute. Like i said, the fact that hebis considered untouchable, even to be subbed off during a game, was our undoing.

He can be the second coming of Pele stats-wise for all I care.

Fact is , it feels I've been supporting a team I cannot even recognize since the day he signed for us.

All of the sudden everything revolves about Ronaldo's records, Ronaldo's subs, Ronaldo said this , Ronaldo said that, Georgina blah blah blah.
The guy feels bigger than the club and overshadows everything around him.

Oh and Coincidentally we have three straight cl eliminations in a row from Europa League level sides since the day he came.

Fuck him.I want my team back.So kill the fanboy inside you and just SELL

Yeah but I've seen people blaming him for 'not caring' because he didn't jump. As in, if he jumped we would not have conceded a ground goal
Yeah, few have lost it completely. I guess people are venting but I feel this isnt the right thread. At 36 years of age, he shouldnt play every 3-4 days that much is clear. Or you get Ronaldo like we saw tonight, ineffective and sluggish.

And before that? ...
With all due respect to the man and his career, he was brought in specifically for moments such as this. To score at least ONE goal in games like this. Is he playing a lot? Yes, we're having injury problems and he might get a bit more rest if Dybala were healthy, but there's nothing that we can really do about that. At the end of the day, he is paid 3-4 times what the next player is, and because of this and his reputation more will be expected of him, as it should be. A performance like today is unacceptable from him.

Don't move the goalposts. But it's obvious that he's been playing too much, out of necessity because we're a crock team.
I didn't move it. Exhaustion is progressive. If it were not marathon runners would be able to compete in all marathons throughout the year, same as cyclists and any athlete.

The guy had a bad game. But he did it all by himself before Chiesa appeared. Anyways, I think this loss is for the better. Sometimes you need to lose to win later.
