Real Madrid star faced massive criticism for the most part of the last season, but he responded stronger, as he led club and Country to European triumph.
Rob Train believes Ronaldo, 31 is irreplaceable and still holds the key for Real Madrid, but Zidane should deploy him more centrally, as he is not as pacy as he once was.
“Real’s eagerness to nail Ronaldo to the club’s mast for the next half-decade is not purely a marketing consideration. The Portuguese is the world’s most recognizable athlete and, according to Forbes, the highest-paid but Ronaldo is no fading force, wandering the globe to earn a crust by trading on past glories in far-flung footballing last chance saloons.

“Last season Ronaldo scored 51 goals in all competitions for Real Madrid, becoming the first player in history to hit 50 or more in six consecutive seasons. His record at Real Madrid since 2010-11, his second campaign at the Bernabeu, reads 53, 60, 55, 51, 61 and 51
“Ronaldo has stated his desire to carry on until he is 40 and given his famous dedication to fitness, it is not inconceivable that he could, by moving into the more central role various coaches have experimented with permanently, when his pace submits to the grandfather clock. In 48 games operating as a central striker for Real Madrid, Ronaldo has 45 goals and 21 assists.”
“Carlo Ancelotti said in a recent interview that perceptions of Ronaldo and fellow wallflower Zlatan Ibrahimovic could not be further off the mark. “A manager wants that ego in a player. Ibra uses his ego for good: he has individual talent, but he plays for the team.”
