I'm not a Ronaldo hater by any means, but if he was able to put his ego aside, he'd still be banging in important goals as a rotational player for a top club in Europe....
And look, the guy is a proven winner and one of the greatest players of all time. So it would be silly for me to say he only cares about money/individual stats or criticize his career in any way. If he was ready to move on to this stage in his career (like Messi), so be it. But it just felt like he had something left to give in Europe and left prematurely.
