I think Ronaldo plays more centrally now than he used to. However, I think that that's more for balance than because it suits him best

I'm disappointed we'll never see them play together. Ronaldo will make the same diagonal run from the left wing across the backline 20x's per game whether someone finds him or not. Messi will try to find that run literally every single time he picks the ball up on the right wing and starts running across the center of the field

Rooney would be brilliant in that role because of his ability to pick out a pass.

Ronaldo is my favorite non-American player. He has been the best player in the world the past club season (largely due to Messi's injury). He is the most exciting player in the world to watch.

I love watching CR7 play, and think he's the best in the world. I'm glad he wasn't very good today though.

And no one plays less defense than Deuce. But like has been said, it's not their job. It's like saying Tim Howard doesn't keep possession enough.

Probably Messi false nine then di Maria wide right since he'll kill himself tracking back
