also the last player to win man utd the UCL. to put it into perspective, when ronaldo left in 2008/09, man utd still have scholes, giggs, evra, ferdinand, vidic, rooney, nani, carrick etc2 WITH SIR ALEX FERGIE HIMSELF. they still couldnt win the UCL. fergie even added van persie, still no UCL title. ronaldo really are bigger than the club

[@jr5034]

@@izzarulhadi5163 stupid take, that 2008 season was when most of them hit their peak, after 2010, there was a clear decline in their quality as players except for Ronaldo, its when age was catching up to them, add to that Glazers refused to spend money to rebuild the squad at that time, its even said by SAF that he didnt see the 60 million from the Ronaldo transfer at all ever, the only major transfers after Ronaldo left were Valencia and DDG and RVP, thats how bad it was for United back then, it didn't seem like it cause it was SAF

[@xmarc1582]

I have always enjoyed watching these videos. People explaining how good a player was in their prime. Players like Zidane, Maldini, R9, and so on. But as much as I enjoyed watching this video, it made me inevitably realize that we are not going to have this guy in European football ever again especially after the Euros. It is a weird feeling to see someone you grew up watching and idolizing, treated as if they were a art piece in the Museum. Back then, he needed no explanation for people to understand how good he was. But now, especially the younger generation needs an explanation like a piece of art in the Museum to explain how great he was. Although it is not so far into the past, I already miss him.

[@princebond]

Poetically put. It is like every time someone mentions Ronaldo is turning 40 in a few months, everyone freaks out seeing him in that beautiful Portugal kit. Performance wise he surely has plummeted but somehow remains sharp in the box, still has a decent cross in him, passing and link up play is still okay, he has maintained his enormous leap, he still is in good physique, he can still be very useful, just not as well as the Ronaldo of the old. Today's Ronaldo clearly would flourish in a system that crosses the ball heavily, circa 3-peat Madrid. He had Marcelo, Kroos, Bale, Carvajal, Vazquez, Modric and even Ramos spamming crosses into the box all game, he would maybe get to the end of 4 out of 15 crosses, but end up with a brace or hattrick! Their gameplan was that simple. It helped they had people very good in the air roaming around the box like flies, Bale, Benzema, Ramos, Pepe, Varane and Casemiro were nightmares in the air too, waiting to pounce on the crosses that don't land to Ronaldo. This is the only path Ronaldo makes sense as a starter in the National team, not putting him in a system that will demand him to press like a hungry dog, that is not what he is good at. The other option is to bench Ronaldo, I am not sure how Ronaldo would respond to that, I guess we will see. All I know is if Ronny has a good Euros and the team somehow manages to be the first actual golden generation in forever to deliver, he is gonna push for the 2026 World Cup as the final nail in a coffin to his long ass career! It would be sour if Portugal disappoints at the Euros, again.

He was an absolute weapon. I feel the difference between him and Messi is that Ronaldo could have played his entire career at Stoke and he'd still have the records he has. Also when is his prime? He was in his prime for about 15 years haha This video is mental. Him and Hazard? You can argue hes the best ever.

The thing Hazard tried i say is that he has pure talent, which is true, Ronaldo reached his level through training hard training and discipline which is more astounding

[@generalpotato6124]

but ronaldo has more talent than hazard.

[@Nagitudo]

​@@generalpotato6124no, hazard is there through pure talent, ain't no way Ronaldo is more talented. They're literal opposites.

[@generalpotato6124]

@@Nagitudo ronaldo is literally more talented, you didnt see young ronaldo play for sure, the skills dribbling everything. Just for you to know ronaldo at 11 or 12 left madeira and went to sporting cp academy one of the best academies in the world, he was regarded since early as a very talented player. The people that think ronaldo is just hardwork dont know anything, to reach this level you dont just work hard you have the combination of both(hardwork and talent), if it was just hardwork we would see many players reaching ronaldo level becaude there are many that work hard but simply dont have the talent to reach the top professional level.

[@Nagitudo]

@@generalpotato6124 he worked hard from a young age. That's why he was so good at 11. Obviously, there's some talent, but it's nowhere near Hazard's, since Hazard became a world class player with minimal effort. If you think Cristiano has more talent than Hazard, then you're basically saying Cristiano can become a world class player with low discipline, which is just wrong.

[@generalpotato6124]

Many people will say that messi is better than ronaldo by watching prime messi's highlights, but what people will not understand that ronaldo is might possibly the greatest poacher/box to box player of all time. While I agree messi is a fantastic goal scorer , ronaldo is the perfect example of what you call demon on the field. Cristiano is player that has all the combined traits that a footballer should have whether it is heading, dribbling, shooting, etc. He is menace inside the box and chances are if you give him enough space, 9/10 times he will end up scoring.

But he never ever lacked in natural talent. People think Ronaldo is just hard work and that's just not true at all, Ronaldo by his raw talent sent top defenders to the shops at 18-23 years old at United and naturally was a beast in dribbling, skills, crossing, trickery, etc
