Portuguese fan runs onto the pitch chased by steward. Gets to Ronaldo on half way line and Steward tries to pull him away. Ronaldo rightly ignores fan at first but seeing the situation asks the steward to let the fan have a minute with him. Takes a picture with the fan and then lets him go.

Ofcourse the pantomime villain won't be acknowledged for doing anything decent on here but thought I should mention it <whistle>

.... and the Police will probably erase that fan's memory card :( while he's in custody.

He's not over his peak...he's refusing to realise he can't do it all on his own...his fitness levels are superb...his technical gifts are extraordinary but every year he'll lose that step....but should be OK except...his ego won't let him change and his power doesn't allow anyone else to put him where he should be...

Oh I dunno... he is technically brilliant. Dare I say it if anyone's watched team warm up rooney is technically brilliant too. Not as good obviously but still very good.

He works a lot on that fitness but the thing is that just makes him like Gordon stricken back in the day... Yeah he can last longer but it does change the fact he's not near the levels he was at 2 years ago and his not ever going to be again

His ego and **** are all well and good. That's like ibrahimovic.

And prob why he's courted a move to Psg about 20 times in last 3 years.

His level past his peak is way higher than most players still.


:bandit:
He'd be an ideal fat sam signing. Old with a couple years left that sam buys on big wages so sam can look a genius.

I'd say he assessed the likelihood of getting murdered then difused the situation.

I mean he just missed an easy pen the keeper went wrong way on then stood so far offside without looking across the line that he was 2 yards off when stepping back in so.... oops.. Let's Portugal down and must have been quite frustrated so he could not be sure the guy wasn't coming to slap him.
 
Id rather players passed when 40 yards out than shoot though.

Yeh that's the myth that gets banded about.

Look, Ronaldo has his faults but anyone who thinks he doesnt pass or link up play to set up others, really is talking through hate filled eyes. And so many that don't watch him are happy to perpetuate this nonsense.

Last night he had 6 shots from outside the box but only created 1 chance for someone else [HASHTAG]#doingaronaldo[/HASHTAG]
 
FFS Hodgson will get a new contract if England reach the quarter-finals <doh>

Hes had 20 shots and failed to score. How many of those were from 25 yards where a pass would have been better option?

Ges a quality player, but for Portugal he tries to do every thing himself.

I'm not even sure why people are saying stuff like 'respect' etc.

He let someone take a photo ffs <laugh>

Is that such a big deal?
 
Of course he should, maybe 50 lashes in front of the Arc de Triomphe too for wearing a United shirt a few years back <ok>
No argument from me <laugh>:bandit:.

His best days was in a utd shirt. Nowadays its just tickling his ego which eufa are very good at.

Portugal down the years have had quality, why have they never won anything? Team players I don't think they have hsf many of, but to be fair not the only nation with that problem as you get more recognition for scoring than you do being a great defender goalie etc.

About time other areas of the pitch got recognition, yes scoring goals wins you games but so does defending them or clean sheets.

Like being back at school and you can see why every ****er wants to be a striker and no one wants to go in goal lol.
 
10 shots, no goals, missed a pen, created 1 chance, dribbled past 0 players

Ronaldo is now a below average player being serviced by some of the best players in the world at Real

Semis and Roy keeps his job apparently. Shouldn't have to worry about seeing him in Russia in that case then!
