The way I see this:
Ronaldo saw his time in Italy as over at the end of last season, we all remember the Instagram post where he basically said he had achieved all he wanted to in Italy after the coppa win. He wanted to leave this summer but no club wanted him - he then decided to see out his contract.
Then it all changed with the Messi - PSG transfer, he looked at that and thought fuck, I’m going to go another couple of ballon d’ors behind this guy. From there he knew he had to make a move, when the Kane transfer fell through city was his only option.
Seriously - fuck this guy, he’s clutch and he’s one of the best ever but he doesn’t play for the team and he only cares about himself. 30 of his 101 goals for Juve have been penalties (basically a whole season of scoring purely penalties) he’s contributed negative free kick goals and he’s taken a lot of opportunities away from his team mates, Dybala has stagnated and he’s bled our finances so dry that we’ve not been able to adaquately replace aging players in midfield and defence.
we’ve spent 112m on a transfer fee and 60m a year on wages - so far that’s a total of 292m equal to 2.9m per goal, or 4m per goal in open play. In his era he’s helped us win 2 leagues and a coppa Italia. The reality is he’s been a fairly large scale failure and HE has been a pandemic to our finances.
I won’t be sad to see him go, in all honesty I really did try to love him but struggled, he always felt like a hindrance and that his ego was disruptive - he seemed to be allowed to make his own rules and that was disruptive.
Will we be worse without him? I genuinely don’t think so. Maybe players that have felt the need to pass to him above all else will now start to have some freedom and come out of their shell, maybe having a player on the left that agrees to track back is going to help out defensive shape. Maybe those penalties and free kicks he take will be scored by other players whose own self confidence will be boosted.
Above all else. FORZA JUVENTUS
