Why Spanish Football expert believes Cristiano Ronaldo has lose his power to influence games?
Sky Sport’s La-Liga expert Guillem Balague feels Cristiano Ronaldo has lose his power to influence games, as he has reached at the peak of his physical power.
“One of the contradictions of this Real Madrid team is that Zinedine Zidane has made the team competitive again and everyone is happier – but there was still some confusion in the game that suggests he is still not a top manager.

“He wanted to put Alvaro Arbeloa on and take off James Rodriguez – until Cristiano Ronaldo told him that Lucas Vazquez was injured and needed to be taken off instead.
“However, Zidane has given authority and responsibility to the players and they have responded to him. Thirteen consecutive victories in the league is a really good record.

“Cristiano Ronaldo just keeps scoring. As I always said, he has reached his peak physically but he will still score goals because he has so much talent. He doesn’t influence matches as much, but he still pops up with goals, which are very useful to the side.
While, Balague has backed Barcelona to retain La-Liga title: “Luis Enrique’s players started both halves against Espanyol on Sunday looking like the Barcelona of old. They fell asleep a little bit after scoring the first goal, but their opponents didn’t have much of a threat, beyond a little bit of (legal) aggression.
Providing update on James Rodriguez’s future, Balague has claimed that Real Madrid are ready to listen offers for him.
The situation is he belongs to Jorge Mendes and he has been talking to other clubs. Real Madrid will accept offers, but at the moment there is none and they want to recover some of the money they spent on him. Keep an eye on that.
