Not sure why people keep mentioning 80 million being cheap. It was a ridiculous amount of money for 2009

We'll just bring him on the second half since it will be his first game after his return
He's an phenomenon.
Is that his girlfriend?
Would still have been a bargain.
Absolute beast. Seems to have a sixth sense of knowing exactly where the ball will go when its crossed in or passed in.
Hmmm.. he still looked fresh for another (testimonial) game.
New lady that? Or what...
yeah those posts are annoying. we sold him for a world record breaking fee and what was a boatload of money at the time, in fact the market got crazy after the ronaldo sale and i don't think it ever calmed down
It's probably the most impressive season by him for me, for Real, at least. Scored very few by his own standards but turned up for the biggest games in the season and dominated the CL play offs. Zidane deserves huge credit for that too - the way he managed Ronaldo this season, convincing him that he can miss out a few games for the benefit of himself and the team - and getting his peak form exactly when it was needed the most.
10 goals in QF, SF and the final A decent candidate for the beat individual CL campaign performance?

A decent candidate for the beat individual CL campaign performance?What's incredible to me is a decade later he is the key player of another great team in a totally different role.
37 goals in QFs or later stages in CL -

Semi finals - 13 (1x Milan 2007, 2x Arsenal 2009, 2x Bayern 2012, 1x Dortmund 2013, 2x Bayern 2014, 2x Juventus 2015, 3x Atletico 2017)
Quarter finals - 20 (2x Roma 2007, 1x Roma 2008, 1x Porto 2009, 2x Spurs 2011, 2x APOEL 2012, 3x Galatasaray 2013, 1x Dortmund 2014, 3x Wolfsburg 2016, 5x Bayern 2017)

Goat.
Indeed. He didn't influence the match enough tonight.
Don't be so modest mate, sure you would!
He's become a monstrous big game player.
You just knew he'd score 2 tonight.

Just so devastatingly efficient.

Feck the Messi comparisons for a night, ridiculously brilliant footballer. Lucky to have seen his whole career.
Who holds the record for the most European final goals?
Could've done most likely if Bale/Morata et al weren't trying to score from 30 yards constantly at the end of the game.
Great question, surely one of those two?
Ronaldo has won more UCL's than United
Misses out La Liga.
Stupid question but anyone know if Ronaldo will be playing with Portugal in the Confederations Cup from June 17th?
We should never have sold him.
How ridiculous do we look now?
How ridiculous do we look now?
Di Stefano and Puskas
Don't think we would have been able to hold on to him, he's heart was always sent on going to Madrid. Have no regrets.
he wanted to go. we did well holding onto him for an extra year.
Really didn't have much say, we were lucky to have him for as long as we did.
Someone (Messi fanboi) said on the other thread how many times Ronaldo decided matches out of nothing. He clearly never see Ronaldo play
Viva Ronaldo.
Think it's just you who looks ridiculous.
