I hope he does play. I think Real would be a better side without him. Having watched 'Ronnie' this season he's nowhere near the player he was 5 seasons ago. He just 'goal hangs' as we used to say when I was a kid.
Yes, he has some flare but he's got no pace and is very much a ball to feet player.
He is still in the race to win the Ballon D'Or, saying that Real is worse with him is nonsense. If that was the case he will just be bench unless you are a better manager than Zidane, which I doubt.
It's just an opinion, Vish. You don't necessarily have to make a knob of yourself every time you disagree.
1) The powers that be wouldn't let Zidane bench him. Ronaldo's brand brings too much money into the club for him not to play if fit.
2) Real, and Ronaldo, are no were near the side they once used to be. Spurs give them a kicking twice this season and they'll end up 3rd in La Liga.
3) Ballon D'or means [oops] all. The team carries Ronaldo, not vice versa.
That's the spirit Lumba!
