5 Reasons Why C.Ronaldo Sucked on 10-Jan-2009

Cristiano Ronaldo sucked more that Brad Pitt's last film

Real Madrid might have won the match 2-0 against the humble Mallorca and are now first in the league table, lets hope it is not for only a few hours or so but the truth is that it could have been easily 6-0 or worse but Real Madrid did not take their chances, which sucks because things like these can make a big difference come the end of the season. Missing easy chances can have an affect on motivation level and enthusiasm level of the players.

Everybody missed a lot of chances but most notable was C.Ronaldo and that is why I am writing this quick post to tell you why he sucked in this match so much.

1. First things first. He sucked because he missed a lot of easy chances. He missed like a dozen after the 60th minute mark. I doubt if Messi would have let go so easily of his intensity levels if he has in a similar situation. I do not know, but if C.Ronaldo really wants to do what he says (like, he has said now that he wants to be the best player in the world) then he is going to have to take every chance that comes in his way otherwise Messi is going to run away with this too because his consistency, at the moment, is unmatched by any other player in terms of scoring goals and playing well even when not scoring goals
2. He tried to dribble a lot and every time lost the possession which put Real Madrid under unnecessary pressure plus the fact that he ruined many attacking moves because of his show off tricks. Add to that, Real Madrid players had to work twice as hard, just to recover the ball which Ronaldo lost 2 seconds ago. It was just annoying. On one occasion, Marcelo worked his butt off to get the ball back and then passed to Ronaldo to launch a counter attack and what did Ronaldo do? tried to dribble past one single stupid defender but lost the ball which again put the pressure of Real Madrid’s defence.
3. He did not track back when he lost the ball. This is the most frustrating parts. Look at all the good strikers in the world. Henry, Eto’o, Messi and Drogba (count Rooney in too), they all work twice as hard when the do not have the ball compared to when they have the ball but Cristiano Ronaldo rarely tries to make up for his mistakes. I know he has a lot of skill in him but he should definitely learn this from players like Messi and Rooney who are atleast at the same level of skill as Ronaldo is and yet are humble and work hard with the team to prove themselves useful for the team.
4. His free kicks sucked as much as he did himself. Way way way off target. The only skill I had hoped he would do well in this match(ie take good free kicks) if he did not do well in his general play but he disappointed me there too.
5. Did not seem to feel any shame or disgust at what he was doing and how it was costing Real Madrid. Whenever he lost the ball he made a face like, as if it was not his fault. I mean, he lost the ball, so he should be doing 2 things. Either forget about what happened and concentrate on the remaining minutes of the game or admit that he had played poorly in a particular move and try to work even harder in order to make up for it but Ronaldo looked like he was just blaming others for his mistakes which sucks.

So these are the reasons why I thought he sucked. Apart from Ronaldo, Higuain also sucked. He also missed some easy chances. I was certain that today, I would be writing a post about 5 REASONS WHY MARCELO SUCKS but the performances of C.Ronaldo and Higuain prompted me to do otherwise.

Anyway, the important thing is that Real Madrid won and lets just hope that C.Ronaldo improves his physique and most of all his attitude towards his mistakes. Real Madrid need to win with big margins against lesser teams to boost the confidence levels of their players, especially those who are just coming back from injuries and also, to show Barcelona that Real Madrid are not that far behind them and Real Madrid can also maul teams without playing beautiful one touch football.

HALA MADRID!!

Do let me know what you guys think about this. Did Ronaldo’s performance and most of all his attitude really sucked or was it just me? I am all ears now and dying to hear (or read) your opinion on this. Come on baby, I am listening.  TALK TO ME.
