Interesting numbers and corroborates my claim that Benzema and Bale are far more important for Real.

Rooney shouldn’t be playing but will keep his starters position because of his status.

Called that #&$*. Rooney benched, United 4-0

Lol, maybe it was part of Mourinho’s plan. Now he can sideline Rooney without anyone complaining

Yes, he only scored one goal, so terrible, he needs to score an hat-trick every game

He needs to start playing ‘the beautiful game’. Create, perform through-balls, beat defenders, stop kicking players and deliberately blocking the ball with his hand. I mean…he is the world’s best after all.

7th time he has done this in 1 year all having gone unpunished. Now that’s a record!

He’s a finisher now, has been for some time, he creates space for the other players and also some assists. Don’t know why that would change now, never been a playmaker and doesn’t have the same speed for dribbling. The kicking other players is shameful, no doubt about that. I have not seen the game, had portuguese teams to watch

Because otherwise it doesn’t make sense to have him play because he is so limited. His goals mask how poor he is nowadays, because no one mentions how many shots on targets he attempts to make one goal, takes every freekick and penalty. Ofcourse one will score goals then.

Might as well sub him for Morata. Has pace at least and capability of passing 1, 2 defenders.

But yeah, it’s kind of like the Rooney situation where because of money and status he won’t lose his position so easily.

That doesn’t make sense. You don’t bench the teams top scorer. Rooney is not scoring more than 50 goals a season! And it’s not because he just shoots a lot, if it was that easy…

50 goals per season yet Real has been so unsuccessful in recent years.
Says a lot about how meaningful they are. Scoring super hattricks in games that end up 7+ - 0

But yes, as a Barcelona fan I wouldn’t want to see Ronaldo benched as well. By all means have him play every match, have him win the golden boot but continue not to break open games.

The three keys with his goal stats are the sheer amount of minutes he plays , all the Penaldos he gets and the fact he gets about 10 chances every game.
