Cristiano Ronaldo (235 Viewers)

[ilmetronome]

If Dybala, kulu, and maybe Morata in their peak performance all season, and we got proper mid(s) maybe we dont need him
Ideally we keep both him and Dybala, but with a must Dybala contract extension, we will spend much on both salary. Maybe around 80M for just 2 player. I doubt Ronaldo would be willing to lower his salary in his contract extension.

So from what i know and almost sure, him or Ronaldo must go in order to get proper mid(s) and other area for example GK or LB.

choose your fighter haha

Ideally he’d still leave. Imagine who we can afford with his wages alone.

Yes! I would love to see Darmian, “insert random player from Sassuolo”, “insert random player from Fiorentina” and “insert random free player who will spend half of the season injured” playing all together in our team.

Sounds primadonna esque

He's a Prima Donna. Most, if not all, of today's top athletes are attention seeking Divas.

Tootsie and Bozo won't be around Bruh. The Triumvirate of Absolute Fuckery will all be gone come July 1st.

If not, I'll buy you a gourmet burger next time you're in Bangkok.

If you can't admit that the team functions differently when ronaldo is playing compared to when he isnt then you must be blind. That's not a criticism of ronaldo...he is one of the best ever so it's natural for the team to function with him as a focal point but when he isnt there we just look less predictable and more balanced. Was ronaldo a key this season with 30 plus goals in all comps? Fuck yes. Did he save our ass on numerous occasions? Fuck yes. Was dybala missing and morata inconsistent? Fuck yes.

Maybe we need ZZ to come in and show us how to make it all work and gel...

And maybe Ronaldo can lower his wage demands if he really wants to stay. 36 goals in all comps for $30m in his pocket. That's a pricey return per goal.

please no

Ronaldo is a huge player. Even bigger when surrounded by the type of players we have. That is the source of the imbalance he creates. The rest of the team can't hold its own in his presence so his greatness metaphorically bends spacetime and causes great imbalance to the team as they willingly or otherwise gravitate towards him and his whims. Let's face it if you can pass to Ronaldo or somebody else, that somebody else will always end up without the ball. Makes it easier to close us down. It's not Ronaldo's fault. It's not the other player's fault. It's the fault of who constructed the team with those mismatched elements.

He costs us 60 mil euros, not 30 mil dollars. However, he has brought us in like 40-50 million euros per year in additional revenue from sponsorships deals etc. That said, I’m not sure if that additional revenue will disappear if he leaves, so it might be financially prudent to cut down on that wage bill.
I shudder to think the number of ways Paratici and Nedved can squander that 60 million wage bill on scrubs like Emerson Palmieri and Jorginho though.

 

[JCK]

Hopefully he stays and finishes what he came here to do.

If we have any shred of ambition it will happen.

Look, I even have a national team to consider when dealing with Ronaldo on your squad. I don't think it's a complete fluke that the Portugal NT won a Euro with Ronaldo on the bench and not on the pitch, and they've won generally squat when he's playing. I am not faulting Ronaldo for that, however. But his teams play differently when he's in the squad.

Sometimes he can be the stroke of brilliance that gets you through an elimination round CL. Though to be fair, that has not been the impact of Ronaldo since he came to Juve. But when he's absent in the squad, other players have to step up and the team dynamics sometimes seem to flow better. Furthermore, when he's not playing, I think the opposition has to tear up their game plans and are left scratching their heads on what to do with their opponent, making them vulnerable in new areas.

Net net, of course you want him on your squad. But you also want to be able to have a team and a gameplan without him.

Around October/November Ronaldo got Covid, he missed 5 games, and we only won one of those 5 games he missed.

Without Ronaldo, Portugal wouldn't have won Eurocopa, in the Semifinal Portugal won 2-0, Ronaldo scored one goal and gave an assist.

Something similar to what he did this year when he scored 2 goals against Inter in the Semifinal

 

[Elvin]

When departing Allegri did say to sell ronaldo.

Ronaldo is a legend..has been tremendous for us in terms of scoring goals...and marketing behind it all. But the team does play better when he isnt there...fucking sad to say. We should be great and have him as icing on the cake..but its not the case.

One game one fuckin game we won without him, suddenly it's "the team plays better without him".

I hate humans sometimes.

In his first year with us Ronaldo scored a hatrick against Atletico, then he scored two goals against Ajax.

Last year he scored two goals against Lyon

Only this year we can say he was bad in CL, even though he gave Chiesa an assist against Porto.

And again, if we're so much better without him, how come we only won one of the 5 games he missed due to Covid around October and November?

 

[kappa96]

So Cr7 won the MVP of the season again.

 

[Osman]

In what universe do we play better without a guy who contributed 41 goals in 44 games?

 

[Juvellino]

Ideally he’d still leave. Imagine who we can afford with his wages alone.

I don’t want to imagine who Paratici has in mind

 

[duranfj]

He didn't play cuz "tiredness", yep, right, he's gone... thanks for everything GOAT

 

[Vlad]

The problem

 

[Mr Chocolate]

so we get a win against fucken Bologna and people think we are better off without him
the man is the top scorer in the league, all whilst we have been playing shite, im sure Morata and Dybala would have really contributed heavily
