I'm getting all FOMO. It's gonna be sad to see him leave, hopefully we make the CL and actually build a team to complement his Goatness. Theres still potential there and i dont want us to go down as his worst club, even though thats inevitable. But really im pissed with Agnelli, how the feck can you bring in a noob coach and expect the GOAT to shine. Granted his top scorer but he will be known as the GOAT that lead us to europa league, damage beyond repair and of course totally understand him leaving.

Or he's just moving cars back to Portugal. I seriously doubt a Portuguese club can afford even half of his salary here. Maybe he's going to drive his new Ferrari around for the last year of his contract.

LOL the press videoing even his car movements. AA got what he wanted in CR7*, prestige and fame for Juve and himself to be thought of as a RM or Barca. Unfortunately the team's performance has become the laughing stock of Europe. I realize now the Pirlo decision has to be the main reason. Okay, not enough talent to win the CL, but surely enough for another scudetto. Whoever made the Pirlo call (AA probably?) and the yes men (Para, Nedved etc etc) for not saying no way, should all be relieved of their duties. Egomaniac AA should resign and take his crew with him.

I can see clearly now Pirlo probably wouldn't have even been successful managing the U23. I watched most of the matches this year and the POSITIONING of the team always seemed a mess. Examples ..... the opposition getting so close to Juve's goal unmarked with very little effort ..... Juve difficulty in getting out of their own end against even the lowest level of league clubs. Aren't the best teams the ones that constantly keep the opponents in their own end?

*Say too much money, say whatever but AA got Juve the most popular, known, talked about sports figure in the world to join. Clearly CR7 has had very little to do with the failure of this club.

Felt like he went past ~20 players in that 10mins. You can see it went extra time and over 100 mins played and he still makes those runs left and right, getting past everybody and never ran out of gas. That's 16 years ago, 16 freaking years. Also funny to see him giving the corners instead of being in the receiving end, but that's the evolving he's been through.

Ruthless af.

Is he the most radically evolved player ever?

Most players play the same way and in the same position their entire careers. Sure there are RBs that became CBs later on, but Ronaldo has had like 3 different careers already.

I don't know many players that started out as a winger, but later on scored +100 headers over his career. Just proves the qualities he's had as a footballer. If people watched that FA cup final against Arsenal, not a single one would have said he's going to score 15 headers over his career basing it on the how he's a player of what type of a player he is.


The timing on those headers, oh man. That's just small sample of the headers he's scored, missing many great ones but you can see the timing on those is just perfect. Reading the cross, reading the flight path of the ball perfectly and timing the jump on that isn't something anybody can do. It's an art for real. Timing is everything on any sport, time the shot, punch, jump etc. and you get the maximium results. There's the maximium results when it comes to football. And literally all the time near the goal post..
