He’s old but easily levels above of most early/mid 30s strikers. Unless Portugal have someone really talented to replace him, he’ll at least be on the bench for last minute subs like how France uses Giroud
Exactly. Finally, someone speaking logically. For his age, he still equates to the current early 30s strikers as far as goal scoring and play making. Not in speed or high energy pressing. Portugal has good strikers, but no one is great enough to bench Ronaldo. The numbers prove that per season.
Definitely, anyone who says otherwise is just being difficult or doesn't like the guy. Many national teams would love a player like him for the 2026 WC.
@@JamesBond-ex2teI actually 100% agree. He’s not at the age to play for 90 mins straight it’ll tire him out. I still think he holds value though so using him as a super sub at let’s say the second half or 60th minute would allow him enough time to regenerate and play to his best potential.

@@JamesBond-ex2te yeah goncalo literally scored a hattrick in a world cup knockout match not so long ago when ronaldo was on the bench, if he is not good enough for you then there won't be any better option lol
Ronaldo is a great player but his team have to carry him. He doesn’t create plays, he just stand next to the goal waiting for the ball. He became predictable. He didn’t score a single goal in this Euro cup and perhaps if he get replaced by another striker Portugal could make it to the next game.
He doesn't look too bothered at times for me. All he cares about is himself, once he realises his team isn't going to win, he downs tools and doesn't care or want to help his team mates.
@@EdgarMunizBerlinck other players got old too... i remember players like Laudrup, R Baggio, Bergkamp... they could not run as fast as they did, their endurance was not as great as they had but what a players they were.

If you watched the Slovenia and Portugal match Ronaldo was slow So I don’t think he would be fit to be on the first Division for Portugal’s World Cup campaign
TBH Ferguson is not wrong bc today he was struggling against France in the quarter finals, so imagine 2 more years from now in the WC, it will be very difficult for him... ( btw I love Cristiano i'm not criticizing him)...
not only france but every game this euro hes been horrific and selfish shooting from every freekick except of crossing it whe it was to far away hes holding portugal back
he should be thinking more abt his country. rn he’s thinking only for himself, wants to create record for the oldest player in wc and so on. just selfish of him.
What are you on about, he doesn't want to make no records for the oldest player. He just wants to win the World Cup, as being the Greatest, he hasn't won it yet.
As a portuguese, I hope Ronaldo stops being treated like he deserves playing no matter how badly he does, and taking away a spot that could be used for someone else. Whoever is defending him likely didn't even see his games at the euro and how useless he is at this age.
No speed, no dribbling, no strength, only short passes, missing tapins... If he plays again in 2026 he is going to ruin his stats again (Ronaldo fan here)

Portugal need to move on from Ronaldo. He’s been poor this tournament and too focused on getting himself a goal rather than supporting the team. A few of his free kick attempts could have easily been whipped into the box to reach the head of his team mates, but instead he chooses to take shots from awkward angles for his own ego.
If Ronaldo scores one Goal, he has better stats than Lukaku who is 31 years old and Kylian Mbappé who is considered as one of the best Players right now. Just keep in Mind he is 39 years old. Not to forget he faced only defensive Teams where the Striker has less space because he faces 3 CB. Some Teams like Slovenia even played with 6 and 7 defenders so I am glad that he will face now a normal Team like France.
Weird how in football 41 is old, and in normal life 50+ you old. In my world a 40 year old is about 50% on life. I see 50 year old people who sport daily that are more fit then i am (27) and they run crazy fast and shit doing marathons
Im so sick of this general narrative too.. people should stop talking about age and when a player should retire or not.. what if someone had bad luck in life and want to start competing later.. he cant chase his dreams just because people retire at 30+ ?
@@Zcheater I think its just because when you reach a certain age, teams lose interest and are unlikely to sign you because you are slightly slower and have less stamina than the new generation. They would rather spend money developing a young player than renewing the contract of an older player who they know won't get any better.
Yeah, it's the exact opposite! Football is becoming slower and less physical. It's all that pass, pass, pass, walking pace stuff, and the ref blowing the whistle at every challenge more or less. Unless it's totally got the bal, then any coming together has to be a foul. As for penalties, it's a joke what is deemed a penalty these days.
In football it is old. The stamina needed to run for 90 mins diminishes as you get older. 28 year old Ronaldo would have scored 2 or more goals in that match with the same opportunities. There were a few headers that were inches away from him reaching. If he had the same explosiveness he once had, he would have reached them. He has done an amazing job staying fit but time catches us all.
@@sourajittripathi1108 in his 20s you can see from his Manchester United days when he was a winger. He would sprint up and down the flanks again and again, never tiring and with incredible speed while dribbling. Much more dangerous than mbappe is.

Fergie cares to much about Ronaldo because he’ll be 41 and lots of talents have been produced in these 2 years and the next 2 years some will have full potential and some are new but greater youngsters coming.
@@EliasistheflyestTheGoatEditor I didn't mention messi, the USA league still way more competitive than Saudi though. There's no point mentioning messi In same conversation as ronaldo, messi is in a league of his own 🐐.
I belive Ronaldo could be a great manager one day, i realise for Ronaldo the thought of retirement must be daunting, but Ronaldo has bags of motivation to give to a team, has been managed under great managers so has seen some good tactics, and he is a leader i believe he could
It is a challenge from fergie, he knows Ronaldos head, he is trying to inspire him to a great send off instead of the abismal scenes of the euros....... But tbf the world will be at war by then so it might not even happen 😮
At his age and the football he plays he doesn’t suit the Portugal national team. He’s had his time and been incredible, time to give the next lot a chance now.
Bro I always knew Ronaldo would be the goat. The second he hit that pitch for the first time I was glued, he instantly became my football god and role model.
it makes me glad to see professional athletes pushing their age limits on these man made time constructs we’ve made in sports , age should no longer be a restraint if skill and talent still exist in these professional industries. Will love to see him there in his 40s, Go C. Ronaldo !
Portugal always had a good team they were just unlucky and Ronaldo has always been in most of those teams. So what difference does it make? Your overhype of this man gets to his head that's why he kills himself to keep up when he should actually be planning on a retirement job.

If Portugal wins it will be beautiful, not just for his legacy but because how he and Messi dominated the sport the past years. So Messi and Argentina in 2022, why not him and Portugal in 2026? Will be magnificent.
Problem is he shouldn’t get to decide now. He’s more than passed it. That’s why he plays in the league he’s in. Can fault his commit or effort but his capability at the highest level is not matched.
I can understand Cristiano Ronaldo wanting to play and trying to win a World Cup. Hes won it all but the one that remains elusive and the dream of all champions is to win a World Cup. Batistuta cried when he saw Messi accomplished what he couldnt. Cant blame the greats for wanting to win the World Cup. He can come of the bench or help the defense, or be an extenxion of the coaching staff out on the pitch. The mans earned his shots at the national level and Portugal should respect his desire to want to win the World Cup for everything that hes given his nation. Rememeber Jordan crying when he held his first NBA tittle. The goats want to be WORLD CHAMPIONS.

What are you on about, he doesn't want to make no records for the oldest player. He just wants to win the World Cup, as being the Greatest, he hasn't won it yet.
He shouldn't have even been to the Euros IMHO. Same for Modric. These legends don't need to embarrass themselves like this.
He'll never make that world cup. He'll realise this after two years
As a portuguese, I hope Ronaldo stops being treated like he deserves playing no matter how badly he does, and taking away a spot that could be used for someone else.
Whoever is defending him likely didn't even see his games at the euro and how useless he is at this age.
Cr7 reminds me of Lebron longevity and even if he isn’t in his prime anymore he still brings something to the table..
Ronaldo should not be at the next World Cup he still wants the team to play around him and that’s holding them back.
He’s faster than most strikers
Brooooo which one ?you are telling me he is faster than mbappe, haaland, Jesus,harvertz❤
Definitely quicker then Harvetz
@@orjicypriansolomon8235call some of the strikers in their prime says a lot
@@isakjoseph747 you need help if you believe that
@@orjicypriansolomon8235 Harvetz is slow man even his reactions are slow cut it out
No speed, no dribbling, no strength, only short passes, missing tapins...
If he plays again in 2026 he is going to ruin his stats again (Ronaldo fan here)
Don't lie.
@@yamironya1681fr
Based not gonna lie
I Love How Messi and Ronaldo are going to play even if Portugal lost I'll support Argentina if Portugal lost i wish the best for them and i wish Ronaldo wins the world cup to fulfill his dream
He shouldn't he won't be good enough and will cause unneeded tension in the locker room.
After that euros display no way he should get the choice,he was mince
He didn’t even get the ball watch the fucking games man
@@shebooish didnt get the ball? bro he shot to sky? he didnt even search for space? stop fanboying
@@CobraGersonlol watch his runs he definitely found space 🤣
@@Jayyy-qk5sn stop covering him, his team literally keeps penetrating while he can't keep up... How do you think they pass him if he can't even keep up? Leao and silva literally keep penetrating from sides while there is no one in the middle? He is literally still behind i bet you are all fans of cr7 who didn't even watch
@@CobraGersonhe’s old as fuck and made it to quarter finals. Don’t talk shit to ronny he’s cooking your youngsters at a old age.😂 I hate people who hate man like stfu
After his performance in the euros I think Ronaldo call it quits. He won trophies for his country
atleast someone watches the matches he been horrific hes holding them back
@@idontlikelgbtq7309It's coach's fault for not letting others play on Cr7's position
@@N1KI007 stop acting like cr7 would even allow such thing in his last euro he has the power to sack him if he doesnt get played the backlash from the fans would be huge cr7 is a captain any good captain wants the best for his team he should back down but his ego wont let him
He’s not his godfather just a man he adores a lot my guy 😂😂😂😂
At this point, he's being greedy to set records. Let the younger players have their chance to shine in Portugal
Portugal need to move on from Ronaldo. He’s been poor this tournament and too focused on getting himself a goal rather than supporting the team. A few of his free kick attempts could have easily been whipped into the box to reach the head of his team mates, but instead he chooses to take shots from awkward angles for his own ego.
The simpions prediction is probably going that way
Mexico will win then
If I was Portugal coach i would bench him
Bruh he will just waste young fit players spot for Portugal with that old ahh
He will win the world Cup just watch
Hell no
😂
Dream on
He may not be, but Portugal team will sure is! Look at Simsons 'prediction' animation( I don't believe the animation much but search it up)
@ImmortalMan19I can see Portugal winning only if Ronaldo doesn’t play lol
If Ronaldo scores one Goal, he has better stats than Lukaku who is 31 years old and Kylian Mbappé who is considered as one of the best Players right now. Just keep in Mind he is 39 years old. Not to forget he faced only defensive Teams where the Striker has less space because he faces 3 CB. Some Teams like Slovenia even played with 6 and 7 defenders so I am glad that he will face now a normal Team like France.
Mbappé already scored one goal?
No he doesnt and mbappe and lukaku can at least run and get into decent positions. PR7 is literally a waste of space
If neuer scores one goal, he has better stats than lukaku, mbappe and ronalo 😂
@@XD-sp4yebetter then pessi
Better stats than Lukaku or Mbappe isn’t saying much in this tournament. Ronaldo has still been poor.
Its not up to him to decide if he plays it. Hope the head coach doesnt call him.
People are jealous of him Because he's keeping in shape And he's still playing football at his age.
Ronaldo should do Tai Chi
Who’s here after the Portugal vs. France game.
Me
Weird how in football 41 is old, and in normal life 50+ you old.
In my world a 40 year old is about 50% on life. I see 50 year old people who sport daily that are more fit then i am (27) and they run crazy fast and shit doing marathons
In normal life 46-64 is considered middle aged😂
Im so sick of this general narrative too.. people should stop talking about age and when a player should retire or not.. what if someone had bad luck in life and want to start competing later.. he cant chase his dreams just because people retire at 30+ ?
@@Zcheater I think its just because when you reach a certain age, teams lose interest and are unlikely to sign you because you are slightly slower and have less stamina than the new generation. They would rather spend money developing a young player than renewing the contract of an older player who they know won't get any better.
76 is the average life span so 38 is middle aged these days sorry 73 is 😮😂 so 36
Professional football is not your 9:5 job. You find old people physically fitter than you is mostly caused by your shitty life style.
Ronaldo will play with his grandson on the national team.
Old football was 100 times more physical then football will be in the future
Yeah, it's the exact opposite! Football is becoming slower and less physical. It's all that pass, pass, pass, walking pace stuff, and the ref blowing the whistle at every challenge more or less. Unless it's totally got the bal, then any coming together has to be a foul. As for penalties, it's a joke what is deemed a penalty these days.
@@cutekanjii I wish football gets more competitive more physical fast and exciting again.
Dang even Ronaldo’s old coach is against him wow
He said he is the goat
Even my bro which is a Cr7 fan and has a 2 cr7 shirts says to me he's to old and I aggre but he is still good just not as it was
He’s not he is too old
What are you on? He cares for him like hes his own son
How stupid are you
Ima shed a tear when that moment comes.
He will never win a World Cup because he said World Cup is not important,What a hypocrite.But wants to play in it one last time lol.
The man never gives up, even Goalkeepers have retired before him. 😂 really hope he doesn't get injured.
Weird how 41 is "old"
Nowadays i call 50+ old..
45 fit ronaldo would still be better then a regular 25 year old wannabe
In football it is old. The stamina needed to run for 90 mins diminishes as you get older. 28 year old Ronaldo would have scored 2 or more goals in that match with the same opportunities. There were a few headers that were inches away from him reaching. If he had the same explosiveness he once had, he would have reached them. He has done an amazing job staying fit but time catches us all.
@@redstone5062how do you know he is slow?...can you understand from his past videos when he was younger?
@@sourajittripathi1108 in his 20s you can see from his Manchester United days when he was a winger. He would sprint up and down the flanks again and again, never tiring and with incredible speed while dribbling. Much more dangerous than mbappe is.
As a messi fan I really wish Ronaldo the best if he plays like imagine both goats having a world cup it would be amazing
His dominance hinders the team now his ability has waned. Time to go gracefully.
FERGUSON JUST LOOKED US IN THE FACE AND TOLD US A BLATANT LIE
What lie?
Ronaldo finna be 41 💀
Pepe is as well🤷🏼
@@MrBugl17 ronaldo has done nothing but hold his team down he should retire
Some people just don't want to retire with that money
He’s still got a lot left in the tank ❤️💪🏼🔥
ahh so he saved something in the last 3 years or why is he so god damn shit? finished player has no right to be in the squad this year. wont get better in 2 years getting older and playing lower league football.
He is burden on national football team 😢
Then :Hardwork beats talent 🗿
2026: Hardwork can beat age 🐐
Hope so 🤞❤️🩹
Probably last dance of both Ronaldo and Messi. The end of this amazing football era
Remember guys ronaldo jr will play with him too
Fergie cares to much about Ronaldo because he’ll be 41 and lots of talents have been produced in these 2 years and the next 2 years some will have full potential and some are new but greater youngsters coming.
3-5 in pens :( France won Ps. : I HATE FRANCE
good for you buddy
Cry more about it 🇫🇷

He’s so washed up.
Shut up
Well he already proved he is too old during the Euros

Just hope that ronaldo can get the only thing missing in his career that is the fifa world cup
I belive Ronaldo could be a great manager one day, i realise for Ronaldo the thought of retirement must be daunting, but Ronaldo has bags of motivation to give to a team, has been managed under great managers so has seen some good tactics, and he is a leader i believe he could
It is a challenge from fergie, he knows Ronaldos head, he is trying to inspire him to a great send off instead of the abismal scenes of the euros....... But tbf the world will be at war by then so it might not even happen 😮
At his age and the football he plays he doesn’t suit the Portugal national team. He’s had his time and been incredible, time to give the next lot a chance now.
Bro I always knew Ronaldo would be the goat. The second he hit that pitch for the first time I was glued, he instantly became my football god and role model.
As he is still levels above he will still be class in 2026
It is because Ronaldo JR is coming for the 2026 World Cup
LETS GO the GOAT will continue his legacy.
it makes me glad to see professional athletes pushing their age limits on these man made time constructs we’ve made in sports , age should no longer be a restraint if skill and talent still exist in these professional industries. Will love to see him there in his 40s, Go C. Ronaldo !
I’m a Ronaldo fan, buh 2026 ain’t sure he can cope with that unless maybe he starts from the bench😔, buh cr7 is always cr7🦍❤️
If he had this portugal team when he was in his early to mid 30s, they would've done a madness
Portugal always had a good team they were just unlucky and Ronaldo has always been in most of those teams. So what difference does it make? Your overhype of this man gets to his head that's why he kills himself to keep up when he should actually be planning on a retirement job.
@@jacobahemen898 the only other team on the same level/higher than this portugal team was back in 2004-2006, after that they fell off until around 2016-2018
@@jacobahemen898 Also when did i overhype, i literally said that if he was younger they would've performed better. Im literally saying that he fell off and is past his prime
@@GeorgeTooCur1ousMay be but international he is one good game 2 bad game guy.
ronaldo doesn’t need to win the wc. He’s already won the hearts of billions worldwide. He should just rest, he’s had a stellar career.
He can play until 2050 and still win zero world cup and his national teammates respects
Give it up lad, you're past it, and its not you who gets to choose
only one man can say when ronaldo is retiring and thats ronaldo
If Portugal Wins that would be insanity
If Portugal wins it will be beautiful, not just for his legacy but because how he and Messi dominated the sport the past years. So Messi and Argentina in 2022, why not him and Portugal in 2026? Will be magnificent.
If he plays Pepe gonna be 43
Problem is he shouldn’t get to decide now. He’s more than passed it. That’s why he plays in the league he’s in. Can fault his commit or effort but his capability at the highest level is not matched.
Still got it he work hard to stay in shape not a surprise for me.
Ronaldo:- Ferguson has lost his credibility 😂
I can understand Cristiano Ronaldo wanting to play and trying to win a World Cup. Hes won it all but the one that remains elusive and the dream of all champions is to win a World Cup. Batistuta cried when he saw Messi accomplished what he couldnt. Cant blame the greats for wanting to win the World Cup. He can come of the bench or help the defense, or be an extenxion of the coaching staff out on the pitch. The mans earned his shots at the national level and Portugal should respect his desire to want to win the World Cup for everything that hes given his nation. Rememeber Jordan crying when he held his first NBA tittle. The goats want to be WORLD CHAMPIONS.
He was never on the same level as Messi and yeah, dwindling returns
I’m a United fan. But the narrator saying Ronaldo has decided to play in the next WC😂
At this point, he’s just hurting his own national team
Sadly, Ferguson is right
if someone can play a WC at this Age its definitely Ronaldo
