The truth is that Ronaldo has always been extremely talented, which is the very reason that he caught the eye of the biggest clubs at a young age, and these fools act as if Ronaldo has never been capable of being anything more than a goal scorer. They like to just ignore the first 10 years of his career because it doesn't fit their narrative.

Exactly, if it was just easy as to train hard, then many other forwards would score at least 40-50 goals per season, while we don't see guys scoring that much. There are probably less than 4-5 guys doing that and maybe even lesser. Deco speaks about that too in an interview, that he doesn't agree with people seeing he's been that good just because he trains hard. He's pretty skilled, of course in United one of the assistant coaches told him to don't loose time with too much dribbling and being more consistent in front of the goal. But he was a pretty good dribbler too before that, and still showed some times that he could get passed 4-5 guys and score or assist.

Bro c'mon .. Ronaldo worked so much harder than Messi. Evidence? 1. Ronaldo trained his dribbling technique extensively. People call it useless tricks, but that's just being ignorant. Step-overs are very effective to get past defenders (ask R9) & to do them around your top-speed is not easy. Plus given that Ronaldo is a pretty tall dude (at least he's above average here in the US), to even move his legs that fast would require a lot of training (fast-twitch muscle fibers). Whereas Messi never needed to learn those skills; his low center of gravity helps him to be elusive against opponents taller than him. Messi definitely trained his touch, but that's just not as physically demanding as learning all those techniques are. 2. His knuckle-ball free-kick technique. This is an unorthodox way of taking free-kicks and if you ask any footballer they'd tell you its the most difficult shot to learn. The fact that Ronaldo has 60+ scored using this technique is just insane. Whereas Messi uses the orthodox technique of taking free-kicks: curling. Sure this also takes training, but its learning-curve (no pun intended) is no where close to that of the knuckleball technique. 3. Jump-height. There's no one out there (at least right now) that can jump off the ground & hang in the air as long or as high as CR7 in football. The amount of drills (box jumps, squats, other forms of resistance training) he probably does to obtain that skill must be quite impressive.

What's the myth about Ronaldo's accomplishment being about less talent and more hardwork, as against that of Messi? Ronaldo was already in the Portuguese team by the age of 18.

This man is probably why I never really liked De Gea from the first day I saw DDG in the goal post. EVDS was so high-level, that when he stopped playing I could already see that United didn't really have a good GK anymore, and that awesome run of winning titles consistently was coming to an end. When you have a great GK, you can really just win tournaments that you have no right to win sometimes. They stop an obvious goal here, a penalty there, and that could be the difference between winning a tournament and just slightly missing out. And a good example is Argentina in the World Cup. People forget about the details, or maybe focus on Messi and the other goal scorers, but if Martinez wasn't as good a shot-stopper and PK saver like he is, Argentina would've been eliminated in the first shootout they had. De Gea is the opposite of that kind of keeper. He is just makeweight. But people like EVDS, Martinez, they actually give you an edge having them between the sticks.

The way EtH treated Ronaldo poorly, We're sure VDS wouldn't have done the same!

Anybody knows how to just mute Humphrey????

Olympiakos fan we were never even close to the level of United in their prime. What made United unique was mentality and stamina. Even if United were down 2 nil with 5 mins left with Sir Alex they were machines. United, Liverpool and Bayern played every second. Olympiakos has the best fans though haaaaaa.

Cristiano Ronaldo in the youth played at elite level since like the age of 11. Played for the national youth teams. Made his pro debut in 2002, became an international in 2003 and went to United in 2003. He was 18. => He was one of the most talented youngsters in Portugal. The thing is that he at first overestimates himself and then adapts => the hard work is especially one of trial and error and about being smart working around his limitations into the role of the most important individual => there was a clear desire to stand out as an individual and his passing game was his limitation because it was never above average.

I agree with everything but just disagreed with your last sentence's last part unless I misunderstood you. In his position, you will not expect a regista like passing although he has done that as well. Watch when Ronaldo played in certain matches close to CM position and how he threaded passes between the lines and aerial passes. I'm not even counting his passing strengths which he was great (not as great as he later became) from around 18 years of age only, like counter attacking one-touch passes, crosses (both aerial and ground, including with a lethal curve) and neat flicks while dribbling and passes after runs and dribbles close to defenders' feet. Additionally, he could not show more of his passing because except for Van Nistelrooy, he was always the main goalscorer. Benzema and Higuain was supposed to be his strike partner but they couldn't turn up in goalscoring department in the initial Madrid days as well (look how many good passes Benzema missed which Ronaldo used to give, you can get compilations after compilations). And, of course, he wants to take the shot himself often for his own goal scoring as well. He also did them both with both of his feet, a huge assest and that's why he played easily in RM, LM, LW, RW. Reasons like this is why he proved to be versatile later as well, because having all these different attributes help you to adapt to different situations and against better teams, hence the difference between his UCL KO stats and the next best player's UCL KO stats. It goes without saying he played in great teams as well.

Was terrible at tackling, tracking back and couldn't control the game from midfield or anything. Kind of player that needs great players around him to look good

There seems to be a belief that talent is god given but hard work is something that everyone is capable of. Is it not also possible that the ability to work hard is also genetic?

Dammmn I really feel old seeing all the van der sar , charaghers, zidane with Grey hair

You got to give it to the big managers how they control all these big egos week in week out and get them to play full on fergie, wenger, pep, ancelloti etc

Amazing how the dutch and the germans rather have their teeth pulled than have anything nice to say about Cristiano Ronaldo.

He did say something nice about ronaldo, he wasn’t negative about him at all. Strange how some people think everyone who isn’t outright praising ronaldo must be against him…sounds so insecure.

He praised Ronaldo though? Or did you just not understand him because of his accent?

@@donaldvanvliet9039 Fair -- but you don't see that with Messi, don't you? Only praise. The point is: were ronaldo a south-american you'd probably see the same.
