When was Cristiano Ronaldo in his Prime?

Спорт

CR7's unbelivable career may be coming to its eventual end but with over 2 decades spent at the pinnacle of the sport, he will forever be remembered as one of the game's all-time greats. A man of records, he is Europe's goalscoring GOAT, and has a trophy cabinet of dreams, serially winning in every country, but when, and where did he play his best football?

    5th CR7 4th Di Stefano 3rd Maradona 2nd Pele 1st Messi. GOAT category in terms of trophies/lethal but didn’t offer as much to the game outside of goalscoring. Elite mentality/efficiency rather than god-like natural ability. Probably the greatest European player to do it although I believe Cryuff had the better talent & influence on the game.

    #1 and not because ima Real Madrid fan, because he won everything everywhere. Because his country is a small one and never won anything before him. If he never won anything on the international stage then he would be #2. Of course this is my opinion, but Messi was suppose to win, it’s Argentina, they are meant to be a super power in World Football. Figo’s generation to Cristiano is Portugal’s golden era in my opinion and the generation that should’ve won it didn’t but he carried it forward. Again, just my opinion as an avid fan of the sport. 🤙

He also scored more of hatricks during those years at madrid, won 4 UCLs in a span of 9 years. So no, messi wasn't better than ronaldo at madrid.

    Ronaldo was never a pure Number 9. A pure number 9 is essentially a classic striker, who can hold up play in the middle and stay in the box. Ronaldo's best performances has always been coming off from the left to arrive in the middle to score. He more or less works best with a striker who switches positions with him whenever needed, which is why Benzema was the perfect partner for him.

    Wouldn't say a pure #9 but definitely more like a #9 compared to his previous #7 role with the previously unseen scoring prowess as a #7 (winger). To do that switch and perform still at a very high level is not an every day ocurrance. Both positions comes with its own dynamics, skill sets, positional awareness, etc. So @ the urging of Zidane, the RM Manager at the time, Ronaldo listened to his career prolonging advice ie, do less dribbling to avoid tackles, etc., etc.,. In 2014, before the Brazil WC, I remember when the news came out regarding the tendonitis in his left knee and the rigorous regimen, both on a daily basis as well as part of his pre game regimen BEFORE hitting the pitch. I remember thinking when the regimen was explained in detail, the mental strength one would need to do that on a daily basis, etc... Just amazing tbh. I mean supposedly he spends almost 1.5 hrs with his pregame routine, before he even hits the field. Lots of respect for that kind of dedication and mental strength, just to be able to play.

The TEAM didn't suffer when Mason Greenwood decided to bash up his ex. The TEAM only suffered when Ronaldo scored. Hypocrites like you like to protect Mctominay because you have an agenda against Ronaldo. Fine, having any views against Ronaldo is natural. What isn't is to put the entire blame on him for the failure of United. It was always Mctominay, and Fred who was producing stinkers on the pitch slowly killing the club. Even the goat Messi should have an exorcism done because Scott Mctominay said he thinks Messi is a goat. The point I'm making here is Scott Mctominay is the Osama Bin Laden of football and you today blame Ronaldo while not calling out the fraud that is Scott Mctominay. Scott Mctominay destroyed every player's career at United and mark my words, he will destroy at least one club by the end of his career. He is the greatest antithesis of good football but according to you, only Ronaldo is the problem. I can agree that in Madrid or at Juventus, you could see Ronaldo being an issue in his later years. But at United Scott Mctominay was destroying the club long before Ronaldo arrived and he was getting a helping hand from Glazers.

    My favorite era was winning 4 UCL’s in 5 seasons with Madrid. He was the top scorer of the competition every time, and set the 3 best individual goal scoring seasons in the UCL during those seasons as well. Our team was stacked, and with Ronaldo up top it was impossible for us to lose in those games. For me, clinching the 3 peat in 2018 made him the greatest of all time. He stepped up everytime we needed him in that era, and closed out his beautiful Madrid career on top of the world.

    Cristiano Ronaldo has had 4 primes Only player to have more that one prime He always preformed as the best even with different playstyles throughout his career 2005/06 - 2009/10 was his first prime He played on the right wing, was exciting with his dribbling and skill moves, world class at playmaking and still kept a high level of goalscoring, excellent in the air and could use both feet The most complete version of any footballer ever 2010/11 - 2014/15 was his second prime He became the greatest goalscorer ever during this period and he was a winger and was still excellent at dribbling and passing, remained the best at skill moves and was still complete This was the peak of Cristiano Ronaldo statistically He moved to the left wing in 2012 (11/12 season) and became a left winger and was still the best at goalscoring. This was a very feared version of Ronaldo and he was explos1ve during this period He became the fastest footballers in the world 2015/16 - 2018/19 was his third prime This was known as his clutch prime and is considered by many as the most feared version of any footballer because he always broke fans hearts with late goals and comeback hattricks and he took the biggest clubs apart so easily. He also kept on winnng and winning and showing what it means to be the greatest footballer ever. Dominating every competition in sight and owning UCL This was the legendary Noodle - hair Ronaldo era 2019/20 - 2021/22 was his fourth In this period he became a striker and was moved to the middle He showed his longevity and he dominated 2020 He scored 31 league goals at the age of 35 and was worth €75M He scored 30 league goals at 36 and scored 2 premier league hattricks at 37 and was nominated for the ballon d'or with an extremely weak team Notice how his playstyle always changed during these and how he always adapted to different situations and still continued to remain on top of football No player has ever experienced such changes in their career and still continued to remain at the highest level We may never see this again Cristiano Ronaldo will always be the best and most complete footballer ever 🐐

    @@theworld5881 you're clearly a stat merchant, who's too overly influenced by yankee sports. I know football? But what the fuck is _'ball?'_ In 2014 Ronaldo was diagnosed with chronic tendinitis, a knee condition that is hinderous, painful and gets worse over time. Because of this he had to adapt his playstyle and very shortly after was no longer capable of consistent blistering and mazing dribbles alongside his other elite attributes. He won his first Ballon d'Or in 2008, breaking and setting the PL goals scored in a season record because he was the compete player and was essentially unplayable, he did this in the hardest, most demanding and intense league in the world. His numbers contextually were phenomenal when you take into account the schedule, physicality and level of teams he played and this is why Madrid signed him. Following 2014, he was no longer that player and whilst he adapted into becoming one of the worlds greatest ever goal scorers, poaching with elite positioning etc he was never the same player. He may have scored more, won more trophies or however else you wish to frame it, but he was no longer a complete player. I framed the statement as Ronald's best years as a complete player, a player that everyone wants and needs in their team, who can create and assist in a multitude of ways. For example Bayern didn't need post 2014 Ronaldo when they had Lewandowski, but they would've taken '08 Ronaldo above either of their wingers. Learn to read things properly, look beyond stats when there's no context and do some research.

    Cristiano Ronaldo has been an elite player throughout his entire career and still is. His prime was far longer than the average player and somewhere between 2007-2015. He was phenomenal before 2007 and also after 2015 but between 2007 and 2015 is when he was elite in all aspects of his game.

Nobody with a brain would claim that cr7 was a better player than Messi, so the only way to make a comparison between the 2 was with their goals. HGH isn´t a streroid or something. It just helps you grow to your normal height. If anything the HGH treatment was a liability on Messi since he was always getting injured and often vomited in half time of the games. But I see that you are portuguese so you have no concern about the veracity of this situation and just want to blindly hate Messi like most portuguese people do.

Although his disastrous FIFA World Cup performances, I believe he made up for it everywhere else, LaLiga, Champions League, you name it, he did it. Doing this while carrying tendonitis is exceptional.

    i think he had different primes for different abilities, same as messi. He was a much better dribbler in his late united years and early madrid but a better player as he was smarter towards the 3 peat era. Messi was a better dribbler when he was younger and had more drive but now he’s arguably the best playmaker in the world, he was always a good playmaker but not the best in the world when he was young

  • @dexterous0215
    @dexterous0215 Жыл бұрын

    Ronaldo has many primes. But primest of all primes were 2013-2017(my opinion ✌🏻) . In this period he won literally everything and was very clinical and technical be it from winger counterattack, aerial , long shot, setpiece, outside and inside box . In stats ,wins, records, abilities he was on diff league. Simply one of GOATS 🐐🔥💯.

    as for me the peak level he played and well trained was his young form at united. He almost mastered most of the techniques that a player wanted. At real madrid he tend to be a goal scorer but at united he started as a midfielder and then played as a winger. but what hard is that he was at different level in every club he joined, he was almost a complete player when he joined manchester, then he learned even more at real madrid, started scoring more than play making. but the juventus verion was criminally underrated. he gave as much as he can at there.

    You could argue that the guy has been in his prime for nearly 15 years (which in itself is absolutely ridiculous). But relatively speaking, his prime is between 2007-2013. He had the speed and agility, and could score goals all by himself week in week out. And these are not even the seasons he scored the most goals, but imo the player he was during those years was something else. One season stands out in my mind, the 2011-12 season. That's peak Cr7 right there.

    Imagine being the best player in the world. The next season there was a midget guy from Barcelona who wins everything. Yet he choose to came to Spain to confront the biggest challenge in his life(Messi). They both dominated football for 10 years. Only Ronaldo can put Messi on number 2, and only Messi can put Ronaldo on number 2. They both are irreplaceable, both player living in physical and tactical era, which no player nowadays play except them. Stop comparing, they both top of their class, 2 different player, 2 different personality, 2 GOAT.

    I remember the record breaking fee real paid for him back in the day. 80 mil. And he had made a big impact in the league, and was proving to be world class. Playing for a team like real, was the perfect push he needed to become one of the greatest. He really cemented his legend status there for me. I will give him big props for his 07-08 season. What an asboulute display. It was the first season of football that i watched where i genuinely got really into it, and ronaldo played a big part of that.

    For me his best season was 2007/08. 42 goals in all competitions from the wing. Top goal scorer in the premier league and in the champions league. Scored in the final. helped us win the premier league and champions league in the same season. he won pfa player or the year, world player of the year and the balon dor. Taking everything into consideration, this was his best season. i could have considered him from around 2011-2013 but he didnt win even during these periods despite him being at his physical peak.

    How dare people disrespect CR7? I personally believe Messi is the best ever, but CR7 is the only guy comparable to Messi. There were days were Ronaldo would comvince me that he was the GOAT based on how he would grind out wins for his teams. Ronaldo did it for so long, in every league, at every age, in every way. Only a year ago he was tearing the PL up at 37 while Messi was struggling in a farmers league and everyone was at odds to who the real GOAT was. I was 8 years old when I first heard of Ronaldo, now I'm 26 and the guy is still at the top of the game. Yes the guy got benched at the WC and Messi played the tournament of his life to bring the Cuo home and put an end to the GOAT debate but Ronaldo's longevity, consistency and clutchness are trully remarkable. What an era we have witnesses, it's sad that it's come to an end.

    I know a lot of people say 2013/14 was his best season cuz he broke the UCL record for most goals by a player in the command la decima but IMO his best Espn was the 11/12 season. I felt his game was complete as he still had the dribbling from Man United days but was more of a goalscoring machine plus he played more games that season then a in 2013/14.

    Most of comments saying Manchester and Madrid days were prime.. but beleive me Juve Ronaldo was above all of them... If you compare properly.. he gone to play under allegri system a pure defensive system yet in his first season scored 28 goals and 10 plus assist that too as a Winger and played with players close to retirement.... Than next season sarri came but style remained same as you can't change years of system in one season... He played with higuain and a dead midfield cancelo sold to city worse team than his first season and guess what he broke many records and faught for golden Boot and finished 2nd in fifa best ... Next season again manager got changed Pirlo who never managed school team ... Played with kids saved their UCL spot and still scored 36 goals ... Scored 100 goals in 3 season one of the fastest in a defensive team .. no one in history will repeat such stats ... And many legendary performance like against Atletico... Ronaldo in his last years in Madrid was benched by Zidane in small matches he was getting injured but in Juve he played majority of games that too during corona time when you have to Play 3 match in a week ... That is some next level peak... If corona didn't came and Juve didn't got financial trouble he would still be in Juve and would have retired their after scoring 200 goals❤️

    The 2007-2009 Ronaldo was easily the most exhilarating footballer in history. Pace. Power. Aggression. Accuracy. Skill. Vision. Athleticism. Lethality. Range. Being able to shoot and cross with either foot from either flank. He was truly complete and highly underrated. But the Ronaldo version I respect the most has to be 34 year old Juventus Ronaldo. That stint in Italy is the most overlooked of his career and that's where I feel he had reached his true peak and maturity as an all round footballer.

    I love all the versions, but man nothing ever in football will beat the thrills and chills I had watching that Real Madrid team win the UCL three times in a row. They've always been doubt by the media and so called analysts, yet they managed to comeback every year and mind you with Ronaldo heavily impacting their playoff games win it all again. I don't think I will witness anything like that for the rest of my life. Beautiful game. Most complete player and preaching hard work, which motivated me to start playing football seriously. Greatest player of all time in my opinion.
