bwaaaaaaah, what a funny quote!!!! yet you think that CR7 could have scored as much goal with Madrid (or Man Utd) without the help of all his great teammates who made fantastic passes/crosses to him?! come on bro!

you are right, time will tell!

btw: i am a PSG fan, and i also believe the price that was paid for Neymar is way too much, and the same rubbish gamble as the above one. the difference is

yet Cr7 has assists than the so called great team mates, Cr7 has highest UCL assists in history, highest assists in Real Madrid history and 2nd highest assists in Laliga history.

Cr7 lead others follow.

NoDulling4here:

Ronaldo is actually a brand and not just a player.
Juventus signed the Ronaldo /CR7 brand.
His presence has already done much good to their shares.
They can make their return on investment in a year or two if things work out fine.
Ronaldo as a brand owns his own image rights . Ronaldo ,Messi,neymar . Unless he sell his image rights I don't see juve making any cash from him being a brand unless he starts something with fiat, all the money Ronaldo makes as a brand goes to him.

We know you don't like Cr7 but don't lie, after the purchase Juve shares rose by 11%, they have sold over €60M of his jersey even before start of season, Hey we are talking about 5 time Ballon d'or winner and 5 time UCL winner here.
lolx , u think jersey sales will bring back some cash , that's bs ,90% of the cash is for Nike/addidas ,if Ronaldo would HV stayed longer with them ,he would HV brought more sponsors ,let's pray he plays well this season at least

Napoli president is only jealous and clueless. I remember when florentino perez bought CR7 he said the most expensive players are usually the cheapest. Madrid made more than 70% of his cost from his unveiling and sales of jersey in the first year. Remember the club gets a certain percentage from his endorsement. Juventus have already made over 50 million euros from the sale of jersies and the stock of the club has increased. At the end of the day juventus will make more profits than the his purchase price. No wonder napoli they lag behind juve for decades.

The man speaks the truth, but truth they say is bitter.
the man is not thinking like a business man. Ronaldo signed a 4 year contract. That payment wld be spread out through his for years. That is 105million for signing and 106 million for his wages. Ronaldo just being in juve wld increase their tv contracts value, ticket prices etc. They wld make much more than that in four years. This is business. Go figure bro

but of course, he can win a match with any team just by himself, while playing blindfolded, right? bwaaaaah! thats why Portugal failed so miserably during the WC, abi? where was all the above nonsense you wrote during the WC? if the above was any relevant to WINNING, he (or Messi for that matter) should have won the WC times and times again, duh!

the reality is that without fantastic teammates, he will be a shadow of himself...

...and btw: if he was indeed such a priceless player then HE would rank the biggest football salary, not Neymar and Messi, duh!

But his commercial value has already repaid half the transfer fee even before the season starts. And he usually earns more off the field every year than on it. At the end Juventus has only provided seed money, Ronaldo's game and image isthe long term earner. Juve tus will not spend a net dollar on him.

such question is an INSULT to the great team that is Real Madrid, but anyway, take your pick:

Ramos, Marcelo, Varane, Modric, Casemiro, Benzema, Bale, Kroos, Isco, Nacho, Asensio...to name just a few!

Smart man! Truer words have never been spoken ....

... and many of us have been singing the same song as well.



O pari

Sportdab:
Napoli President Aurelio De Laurentiis has described Juventus signing of Cristiano Ronaldo as "A Waste Of Money".

Juventus paid Real Madrid £105m earlier this summer for the Portuguese.

The deal will see Ronaldo earn £106m over the four years on his current contract.

The 33-year-old has had his first training session with new Juventus teammates today in Turin.

And Napoli Presi De Laurentiis has mocked the deal.

“Spending so much money to buy only one player at the end of his career is very dangerous,” De Laurentiis told La Vertia.

“Let's remember that Cristiano Ronaldo is of a certain age and in terms of the club’s balancing of accounts his signing is a risky move.

“The signing of Ronaldo is out of any standard.

“If you start to pay such absurd and out-of-the-ordinary salaries, sooner or later this turns against you.”

By signing Ronaldo, Juventus became the first Italian club to break  the £100m barrier for incoming transfer.

They also smashed the previous transfer record in Italy by landing Gonzalo Higuain from Napoli in a £75m deal two years ago.

“(Ronaldo) has at his side what - perhaps- is the most intelligent of sports agents: Jorge Mendes,” De Laurentiis added.

“I had been with him for breakfast in Portugal and in those days we talked about the goalkeeper Rui Patricio.

“Then, when it was clear that Real wanted to left home (Real Madrid), he called me and said: 'Listen Aurelio, can we play this game?’

“Was it too expensive? Nah. That said, it's a nonsense. I imagined a model in which the costs were matched exclusively with the proceeds mirrored to the relative costs of the operation.

“I had told Mendes: ‘Do you think that Ronaldo will make me rich? If so, we do it so the first €250m turnover goes to Napoli, and the next €100m are due to Ronaldo’.

“If he could actually earn (those figures), he would have nothing to risk or to fear.

“But then Juve arrived, and - behind FCA (Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, who have part-funded the Ronaldo deal) - raised the stakes.”
