Is it me or has he missed loads of penalties recently?
His obsession with beating Messi is being taken to the extreme. Now he's trying to be better at missing penalties than him. 
When he's 50, he'll be regarded as probably the best player in Real Madrid's history.
In before someone slaps you with Di Stefano.
He's definitely top 5 IMO, and a great of this football generarion. And the notion that he will look back on his career with any substantial regrets is absurd.
Edit: I should clarify that by Top 5 player I mean top 5 players that played at Real.

I dunno. He might have a bit of envy about Messi's record- four Champion's Leagues and seven La Liga's (so far, aged 28), but winning the UCL with two clubs puts him in rarified air. Neither has got near to Maradona's level on the international stage.
In terms of trophies won, he definitely will.
I doubt it. He's won everything there is to win and done it twice over. The trophy haul might look small in comparison to Messi but by most standards it's excellent. You add to his Ballon D'or collection and I imagine he's very content.
Only for Real there might be that feeling. Let's not forget be won 3 league titles on the bounce and a CL with us in a very dominant spell at club level.
For Real yes. He's won everything but a one of a kind player like him, should have won much more (just like there have been legends of the game before who should have won more).
I think he will definitely feel he should have won more.
They dont like each other.
Jose even went as far as saying that Ronaldo considered himself as someone with nothing else to learn(Implying that he was a difficult player to manage)
I am glad if Jose is coming here, as he wont bend over to Woodward's wims to sign galaticos, including Ronaldo.
I do think Ronalso is a great player, but I hope we dont sign him back. I'd love to sign a younger player that might not as good as Ronaldo is now, but will give us great service over a long time(Griezmann is the dream). Ronaldo has mentioned that United is in the past, and he has moved on. Unfortunately, I dont think United has.
He wont be, Di Stefano will always be held in higher regard. It could be argued that he is the 2nd best player in Madrid's history IMO. There will be the likes of Puskás and others to challenge him for that though, and it is always very difficult to compare players of similar status from different eras.
Di Stefano will remain the man at Madrid for a long long time. Hard to see anyone surpassing him there.
He'd have won more trophies and possibly another Balon d'or or two if he'd stayed at United.
He wouldn't have a goal/game ratio above 1:1 though.

Scores a Portugoal. Viva! @FC Ronaldo
RIP Denayer.
Oh mama
Viva-gasm.
Yes! SIIIII
Doesn't score when it counts...
One of his best performances I have seen from him in a long time.
Really worked hard for the team tonight and got rewarded for his hard work.

Go on Ronnie.
Get in!
Not over the hill yet. Phenomenal player. Well on course to his 6th consecutive 50+ season
Bad first half but much much better second.
Amazing composure for the winning goal.
Was disappointing till that moment though.

Obviously finished. Scored the winner, should've had an assist for Bale, hit the crossbar. All those posters who have laughed at my desire to have him back at United are clearly right. Why would we want a guy like that? Scoring in major derbies and the like.
He was anonymous. You're basing that off of one instance where he tracked back on Alba.
In a game where two all time greats were playing they were both utter crap, I thought.
Worth mentioning he should have had an assist as well. Stupid ref.
What a man! Fecking love him and haters will stay out of this thread today.
Scored his goal, hit the bar and had the assist for the disallowed goal.

I remember him tracking back well for the team on 4 separate occasions.
I thought he was utter garbage until the game opened up.
Failed to beat his player and lost the ball every single time Real countered.
