no need to wait 40 years it seems that Ronaldo game yesterday was also not visible when he was young maybe his performance has decreased even the way he plays is not as good as it used to be when he was young and maybe it's because of his current age, I think even though he continued his career in football to 40 years old not sure he will get minutes to play long on the pitch at any club
It cannot be denied that at Ronaldo's age of 38, he has nothing more to give to his country or the club he will join later. He's had a really hard time adapting to the young players and before at Manchester United it was all obvious. With his declining form it seems that it will be difficult for him to be the lone striker up front, maybe in my opinion he is more suitable as a second striker as a close pass for strikers who are younger than him. Of course, even if there is an offer from a club that is in the UCL zone this season.

It doesn't feel like Ronaldo will be able to find a team for himself which is already in the Champions League now. Because there is no such team having serious interest in signing him these days. There is still time for even the start of the transfer window of course but I'm not very hopeful about that. The only team I've heard of in Europe is Newcastle for now. If Ronaldo is ready to be patient he should sign a deal with them. They are already doing great in the EPL and they have a potential for the CL.

Otherwise Ronaldo seems really likely to go outside Europe, especially that Saudi Arabia team Al-Nassr.
everything is just rumors there is no definite certainty which team is really serious about signing Ronaldo in the January window. newcastle united which has quite good finances and its performance in the domestic league is also good so that the media associates it with ronaldo in the transfer market. Ronaldo does have a great desire to be able to play in the champions league in his new team, so that will be the main point he will rely on in the future. On the chelsea side they are looking for a sticker with more experience this season but the arrival of Aubameyang was not a big impact but not a bad performance but he needs time to make a big contribution. whether chelsea signing ronaldo in the january window is worth the wait.

If comparing with Ibrahimovic then it is very different. Looking at their way of playing is also very different. Ibrahimovic didn't put out much skill to get past opponents and he made the most of the ball finishing. Unlike Ronaldo, in his youth he ran a lot and passed opponents, and at the moment it is not very noticeable because his physique does not support it. So it feels like Ibrahimovic is kind of better in old age than Ronaldo. Of course, Ronaldo should be able to model Ibrahimovic's way of playing, not moving much but having the best finishing. At the moment it is best, because improving abilities will already not be able to, because of its age.
The basic difference between the two is the position they play. Ronaldo tends to play as a winger instead of a center forward because of his skill at dribbling. Ibrahimovic tends to play at centre-forward and waits for accurate passes from various angles, he is much like Haaland.

I don't know why we have to compare Ronaldo and Ibrahimovic, they are both different and that is clear. If Ronaldo walked more than he ran, then I'm sure he wouldn't find himself getting played. He is not the same as Messi, nor is he the same as any other player. Ronaldo needs to move, there he is.

Yes exactly, Ibrahimovic and Haaland are really similar. Ronaldo plays in another kind of way. If we can compare Ronaldo to someone, I would like to do it with Mbappe (comparable to a younger ronaldo). It seems the most

sensitive comparison to be done. Anyway, hope that Ronaldo will reconsider his position, he's becoming ridicolous.

Ibrahimovic and Ronaldo should not be compared. Ibrahimovic hasn't retired yet. He is still with the AC Milan squad. Firstly I would say Ibrahimovic can motivate players. As a result, the players become more confident. As a result their overall performance is better. On the other hand, Ibrahimovic's wages are not as high as Ronaldo's. So even if teams like Milan keep Ibrahimovic in their squad, there are very few clubs who can afford Ronaldo's wages. Also, Ibra and Ronaldo's style of play is completely different.

It's true, Ronaldo and Ibrahimovic play differently.  But Ronaldo does not necessarily have to model Ibrahimovic. Ibrahimovic plays an easy pattern of football and in every aspect, it works for him. Ronaldo applies much skill in football and it works for him. If Ronaldo can't get what he wants with his pattern then so be it. But I Don't Think modeling Ibrahimovic at this old age will be a solution because naturally it wasn't his pattern and as such will make things more difficult for him.

I think 38 is not a negative for Cristiano.  We watched Zlatan again with his good performance at this age.  Ronaldo can show this performance in the same way.  It just takes a team that believes in it.  He was 37 years old last year and had done well for Manchester United.  Cristiano Ronaldo probably plans to play football until the age of 40.  Later, he can step into his coaching career.

Ronaldo has already said that he believes that 40 years is a good age to retire. I think that this can be regarded as a direct confirmation that he will not end his career earlier.
As for his possible coaching career, I'm not sure about that. He is too ambitious and demanding of himself - if he makes at least 20% of such demands on ordinary players, then this will lead to nothing but conflicts.
In fact, I see the opposite, a coach must have the characteristics that Cristiano Ronaldo has, hard work, ambition and do his best. He has a very good mentality, so he can apply that to his players at the club later. He has always been someone who motivates other players where he is, that can be seen now with so many young players who are motivated by him. This is a good capital to continue his career as a football coach.
It will be his decision whether he wants to be a coach or not in football after he retires. But to be honest, I want to see when he becomes a coach, will he have the same success as a player or not.

I think whether a player retires depends on the fitness of player. Ronaldo may not be in the best form right now, but Ronaldo's fitness is still very good. He can still be on the field for 90 minutes. And so I think he will be able to perform consistently for a few more years. He doesn't face many injuries. We have seen Ibra, even at the age of 40, he has not retired. I think Ronaldo will play for at least 40 years unless some accident happens.

Ronaldo playing for Newcastle doesn't look possible to me, Newcastle might no be a 'poor' club, but the take over by the billionaires who bought the club is still relatively recent, and it is yet to have any impact on the team. It would be queer to see Ronaldo playing for a club like Newcastle, it would be a new low in his career and i don't think he will be interested in it. If Ronaldo is to stay in Europe, then it has to be a big club that's playing in the CL, if not it's better he leaves for Saudi Arabia knowing his time in the spotlight/elite football is over.

I always thought that Cristiano Ronaldo would not be allowed to play in the Champions League this season anymore because he already participated in a european club championship this year with Manchester United. I just searched that up though and i found out that he could still play Champions League for another club because he is only suspended to play Europa League this season and i doubt he wants to play there anymore anyway. I also think that he will choose a club where he can play Champions League over any offer from other clubs even if those other clubs are offering way more money. Nowadays CR7 is only playing to set new records or to improve the ones that he already reached.

The rules regarding players for the Champions League have indeed changed and are not like they were in the past. Because at this time, even if the player previously played in the Champions League for example in team A and then moved to team B which also played in the Champions League, then the player would still be able to play. What's more about Ronaldo, who previously only played in the European League, so if in the transfer market later Ronaldo plays in a team that plays in the Champions League then of course Ronaldo will be able to play directly in the Champions League.
So there is no longer a problem if Ronaldo wants to play in the Champions League again this season, but the problem is that not many big teams playing in the Champions League are currently interested in recruiting Ronaldo.

But about Newcastle I think Ronaldo deserves to play there, even though this season Newcastle is not playing in Europe but next season I am very sure Newcastle will play in Europe whether it's in the Europa League or in the Champions League.
Because it would be useless if, for example, Ronaldo joined Chelsea and played in the Champions League this season, but for next season Chelsea will not play in the Champions League because Chelsea failed to finish in the top four. So yes, playing at Newcastle for Ronaldo for now I think it's still the right choice, because Newcastle have developed very much so far.

Ronaldo is currently in a fairly disappointed condition after failing to bring Portugal to win the world cup, as an ambitious player of course he still has the urge to be able to get a national trophy (world cup) before he retires but for now it seems that the dream has ended, he is getting old old of course will affect his performance and physique a lot so I'm thinking maybe he'll only play 1 or 2 more seasons before he retires, Ronaldo and Zlatan of course we can't equate the two because of course everyone has different physical endurance and I think It's hard to see Ronaldo playing until he's 40 or beyond the way Zlatan did.

I don't know why Chelsea coach is not coming out to talk to their fans, if they are going to sign in new players next month or not so that people will know their plan ahead of this UEFA champions league. Chelsea need new professional players in the areas of defensive and midfield which is their major problem in this season, and their coach need to do something so that he will not be eliminate like the way they eliminated their formal coach from the team.
Please, you shall read the latest news about chelsea and how many rumours from chelsea to sign the new players from another club. There are so many news about chelsea's effort to bring the new players to the stamford bridge.
I think that there are bunch of news that must be read by you. I just suggest you to take a look at some news before try to blame chelsea's coach. it's clearly said that chelsea will give an announcement about the players that will be signed by the club.

There has been a lot of heat for Chelsea signing new players and that is why this is a delicate matter,however as said most probably we should wait by the club itself to announce their new signups which they have time until 31 January 2023 as the latest time for a transfer window.

No matter how good players Chelsea signs though they will need time to adapt to the new team and Chelsea does not have time for this so for this year I don't expect anything to change for them even if they sign new players.They should already start to think about the new season as for this one they stand no chance of becoming Champions.

I think Bayern Munchen will have a problem if underestimate them where don't have enough experience on the champions league even have the top star on the squad.
I think Bayern Munich won't try to undervalue Paris Saint-Germain because they already understand their value and this isn't their first encounter. If I recall correctly, in the 2020 Champions League Final, psg did not take Bayern Munich lightly and won by a score of even 1-0. At that time, Messi wasn't on the team, but now, with combinations of Messi, Mbappe, and Neymar, they have a very strong front line.
Bayern is probably stronger than the German national team, but it will still be very hard for them against Messi and Mbappe...
The phrase "calling messi and mbappe in team" is extremely unsettling, and they also require teamwork to help them understand their contributions. See what transpired at the World Cup when Morocco defeated Portugal; it happened as a result of Morocco's players team work, and that is what caused some of their players to become more well-known than the Portuguese team's roster. Sometimes, teamwork is more important than having merely than having world class players. A lot of team have to two or more world class but still the team didn't improve to anywhere.

If truly Newcastle are interested in Ronaldo it will be an offer Ronaldo will accept quickly. Because right now it is not easy for him to see a club that is interested in him. Ronaldo will  will prefer to be in Newcastle than Saudi Arabia.  Newcastle is not a poor club,  am sure Ronaldo would love it.

I don't think so. Newcastle prefers to give an offer for memphis depay rather than ronaldo. I know that both can also play as left wing but depay is far younger compared with ronaldo and eddie how has said that a few months ago if the club was not looking for an old player like ronaldo. In my opinion if you can sign young talented player that has more years to play for the club and why does newcastle need waste its money to sign an old player like ronaldo? Eddie howe itself already confirmed not interested with ronaldo.

I just want to see how PSG have to go on after spending a lot of money on star players, if they fail again it means PSG haven't found their identity in the UCL.
This is the fastness final we have to see on 16 rounds. We know PSG and Bayern are top club who filled the top star on the Final World cup 2022 which I think we can see the Top player like Mbappe and Messi who face each other will be a friend again to try beat Munchen. I think Bayern Munchen will have a problem if underestimate them where don't have enough experience on the champions league even have the top star on the squad.
The Champions League is a few months away, but I already want to see PSG and Bayern play... Perhaps after the World Cup the PSG players will have more confidence... While the German players were fast out of the Cup... Bayern is probably stronger than the German national team, but it will still be very hard for them against Messi and Mbappe...
