EPL and it's intensity, mate.

>>155662507
mental breakdown, he's just not there anymore

>>155662563
Yeah but he went from scoring 18 goals in the 21/22 season to not being able score at international level.

>>155662717
I think this could be a big part of it. You can almost exactly pinpoint Ronaldo's decline to the timeframe his daughter died. Nobody ever considers the pain a man feels in the situation.

>>155662739
>>155662507
He literally scored on every match of the nations league

knowing ronaldo he probably found some doctor that did a new forbidden technology to use the twin as some sort of birth doping to maxx out the boy baby

poor baby girl was just used as a vessel for growth maxing and then tossed into the trash, then as a last stomping used for social media points

he probably stored her placenta and is using it now to get tap in gains for the world cup, maybe put a bit of dead fetus into his weekly Botox mix

wouldn't surprise me desu

Fine margins. The line between "unc still got it" and "someone get this guy out of the team" is very thin and the faintest decline in reaction speed or agility can be what it takes to make a player useless. That's very common with veterans. One day they're still pretty good and then 6 months later they're inexplicably shit.

It's because CR7 style of play, he is an egotiscal retard and always wanted to finish the plays, that requires more physicality than Messi's type of play. He needed to run a lot and beat his man as much as he could.

Messi walks on the pitch because the short retard is always playing chess while playing football, he will scan the pitch, look at his mates positions and execute the best move based on where he is, if he doesn't find an opportunity to capitalize on, he passes back and roams the pitch again. He bets on the fact that by roaming around his man will forget about him and get distracted, and this is the moment he is most dangerous. He only scored 5 goals this WC is because he is always aware of the game, always.

Not a Messi fan, far from it, but he still functions because he is intelligent, not because old age hasn't hit him like it did CR7, it did, so he get rids of the ball as fast as he can, executing the best pass/play possible

Nations League is a meme tourney. Mbrappe didn't even play the last one.

>>155663160
He did though? He was in the 5 x 4 against Spain

>>155663160
Tired of these fucking meme

>>155663220
The reason why France got raped was he didn't play any matches before that match. The players had no chemistry with each other.

>>155663518
It's not meme. Clubs don't want their players to play in Nations League. Euro and WC are fine because they only play for like a month then fuck off back to their clubs.

Too much millage for a 6'2 frame.

>>155663539
Wrong. He played in 2 of the 6 group matches, he was injured for 1 of the 4 matches he didn't play in.
For the finals of the tournament, which consisted of 4 matches, he played in all of them, so 6/10

>>155662717
>>155662780
He tried to sign another pact with the devil, this time for his pregnant girlfriend to die in childbirth. Last time was for his father. But the demon took his son instead. Mental breakdown at the realization of what he had done.

>>155662507
Speed became a fan of him

>>155662507
He went against the Coca-Cola sponsors and got cursed.

>>155663771
too bad for him
Pessi is literally Baphomet

in case you missed it, Ronaldo never performed well in the World Cup (8 goals in 23? matches).
He still was good in the Nations League (top scorer in NLA and his second NL title) and in the Saudi League (3rd in goalscoring, but he got a title).

>>155662507
He never developed other abilities. He attained goal poacher status and that's it.
>>155663078
Tell me you never played football without telling me you never played football.

>>155663025
Based Dutch schizo

>>155662507
Portugal always fumbles at the World Cup.

We are good in Euros and Nations League, but always, always shit themselves at the WC.
It's been like this forever.

>>155665587
We're not good at euros anymore either. But after 2016, I care less about that tournament.

>>155662507
>He was still hanging in the Premier League
No, he wasn't.
United went from 2nd place to 6th place with Ronaldo stealing all the goals while making the team worse. He was flushed at Juventus already. Real Madrid got rid of him at the correct time.
