Ronaldo's fantastic, but you never seem to come away from a Clasico thinking he was the best player on the day.


I think the Copa Del Rey final is the only time I have seen him come through in a "BIG" game.

Cristiano, behind Pepe, is Real's biggest liability.

He simply occupies space and sucks the clock.

That was probably Ronaldo's worst game of his career. He was simply pathetic.

Cristianito is accumulating games of this magnitude with an alarming velocity.

Besides the last three Clasicos, people judge him on games where his team gets absolutely shite-stomped.

Yesterday, I thought that there wasn't much separating him and the BPOAT Messi. They were both largely ineffective.

The Porto away game is an example of a "big" game where he went off.

I wish Jose would do the right thing and start to build Real's play around Mesut, rather than keeping Ronaldo's pussy dry.


There was no reason to take out the best counter attacking player in the world when you're losing.

Don't think that he needs to. Oezil's movement accommodates the shite out of Ronaldo. Have no idea why Mourinho feels the need to yank Oezil after 70 mins. He and Kaka destroy people

I made a thread about it because I think it needs to be talked about more but yeah I wish Jose could figure out that Ozil and Kaka can play together.

Teh reddit gave me this amusing interpretation of Cristiano




Also Iniesta was superb this game, MOTM performance. He's really a fantastic player to monitor throughout the game. His touch and ball skills are on par with Messi and Ronaldo in today's pantheon.

I agree with that completely, and I have an extremely irrational hatred for Iniesta.

He was a class apart on Saturday.
