Ronaldo can never surpass Raul for Madrid.

End of story.

Raul is obv better but it dosent take long to CR7 surpass Raul given the time and his talent.

One spent about 15 years at the club and the other has spent 2 and a half lol.

I ask it because I personally know plenty of Madrid fans who say CR7 is a better player. Probably blinded by goals, stats and Irina.

But people seem to write off CLs because you finally are winning La Liga from Barcelona. More knee jerking as usual.

Lol so for the record, scoring more goals = makes you a better player? So i guess Zidane is a schmuck then....

by Le Samourai Sat Mar 17, 2012 2:36 pm

Actually Sushi....I might not deny one day that he's a better player ( he hasn't yet reached Raul's 2000-2002 form, but he's a great player.

Raul isn't just a player for Madrid, he's a symbol, he was the heart and soul of the team.

Ronaldo can never in a million years be that for any team.

we were known as 'raul madrid' for a reason man..

by Sushi Master Sat Mar 17, 2012 2:36 pm

As I said, it's guys so blinded by Barca hate, that any minor victory against the Barcelona of today, which is undoubtedly twice the team it was before is celebrated like they've won the War.

Samurai that's what I mean. As a player some rate Cronaldo more than Raúl, which I don't agree with at all. Forget the symbol and all that.

I guess scoring 54 goals in a season is something normal, right?

by Adit Sat Mar 17, 2012 3:41 pm

CR has been better for Madrid,thats all.

by Le Samourai Sat Mar 17, 2012 3:41 pm

Yea Jardel did it on a regular with 1/2 the service.

Zidane is a midfielder/playmaker, ronaldo is a winger..

by Sushi Master Sat Mar 17, 2012 5:02 pm

Wingers are usually known for their high scoring rates?

I don't really classify Ronaldo as a winger, either.

by FennecFox7 Sat Mar 17, 2012 5:03 pm

Messi was a winger and scored quite a bit. Why can't ronaldo do the same. Is it because its ronaldo and he's this and that..?

by Le Samourai Sat Mar 17, 2012 5:05 pm

Ronaldo isn't really a winger. More of a inside forward.

Against CSKA is the first time I've seen him actually fulfill his duties as a winger in a while.

Yes, more a forward than anything as Samourai said. Plays on the opposite flank to cut in and shoot. Same thing Messi did, but with less passing and teamwork.

Sorry, but I'm not the Ronaldo this, Messi that type.

Are you serious.

Anyway, Ronaldo was a winger but now he became an inside forward. He does still play sometimes as a pure winger though, such as against Barca in the CDR.

by Guliver90 Sat Mar 17, 2012 5:23 pm

CR has to lead Portugal to WC glory, RM to CL glory..and equalize real Ronaldo WC goals tally to be considered as good as him...

and that because you think goals=quality.

romario is the player to beat ...
