evolution

of Cristiano Ronaldo, but quickly, if you are a football-loving engineer around here, don't hesitate to subscribe. for more videos like this and much more and if you enjoyed the video a like would be great, now let's get into it.

The first Ronaldo we saw was the fresh-faced teenager who broke into Sporting Lisbon's first team at just 16 under the manager. In Bologna it was clear from the beginning that there was a great player there with a lot of potential. He was used almost exclusively as a pure winger on the right side, attacking the back line and looking to cross. He had pace, agility and incredible dribbling ability to impress first-time spectators, but that was one of the problems. He was criticized for being all dribble and no end product and this was true to the extent that in 25 League appearances he scored only three goals, but his flashy style had its advantages. impress Sir Alex Ferguson during a friendly to open Lisbon's new stadium Quito United broke away in a 3-1 win and this convinced Ferguson to make him the most expensive teenager in English football at the time the plan was to loan him back to the sport, but his performance was so impressive that United now kept him as a majesty.

United his career can be divided into two clear parts before and after the 2006 World Cup during his first three years with United wearing the number seven Ronaldo was not fulfilling his potential He again played on the right wing and was lucky to find the Fords with their centers, but that was one of the problems. He had moved to a better league and adapted his game and was still seen as a show pony even once. get into an argument on the field with his teammate Ruud van Asteriod because of his boasting statistics don't lie in 95 li games he scored only 18 goals, which is approximately equivalent to 0.18 calls per game and then, after a controversial 2006 World Cup in which he won the club The team was truly expelled, he returned with a different beast in which he had grown in his physique, which led him to increase his strength and, despite receiving boos in every stadium he visited, he was developing a ruthless streak very slowly, they began to be less elusive and steal honestly and more end product and, most importantly, Ferguson gave him positional freedom to move up the field more frequently in season seven of 2006 after Tevez, during the team, the three forwards were Tevez Rooney and Ronaldo Ferguson allowed them incredible fluidity, so Ronaldo no longer stayed on the wings.

Instead, he could often go to the center or even to the left side, which made him more difficult to mark, as he found space everywhere on the field. His finishing ability also improved, as he no longer concentrated on scoring aesthetic goals but simply on scoring the ball. In the back of the net, this meant that in the next three seasons in 101 appearances he scored 66 calls or 0.6 six calls per game, an incredible improvement on the seven season of 2006. Here is the league's top assister with 14 and earned a Ballon d'Or nomination. The following season he equaled the record for calls in a season with 31 and won his first Ballon d'Or with just 23.

At the start of the 2009 season, Ronaldo became the most expensive player in all time and was already an established star 80,000 People turned up at his inauguration at the Burnable and here we will focus on the two main versions of him that we saw, where United we had seen a fluid attacker in Rial, he came to a more system established, mainly a 4-2-3. -1 initially Kaká played in the hole with D Murray on the right and Raúl above, this meant that the right was taken and Kaká occupied most of the central spaces, so Pellegrini and then Morena concentrated on perfecting him towards the left further lethal.

Possible winger Ronaldo had spent some time there. The United CEO is comfortable stepping in and looking to score on Kaká and soon Ezell would draw attention in the middle, which would then open up space for remote attacks in the middle, often with dribbles and long shots when the ball went wide of both sides. sides. He used a quick start to his advantage, arriving late into the box to return home, when he reached the center he drew defenders in, allowing him to find his other teammates with incisive passes when defending, although he would only drop back if his team was low extreme . pressure, meaning Madrid often had an unbalanced way when defending, but it still showed in Marino's game plan by making them perhaps the best counter-attacking team of all time with quick passes from defense to ersal attack Egwene de María and Ronaldo Granada was still one of the fastest players in the world and combined this pace with the ability to dribble.

In these years he went from one of the best players in the world to one of the best players in history, finishing as runner-up in the Ball. d'Or, in addition to winning it twice during these first five seasons, made one hundred and sixty-five appearances scoring a ridiculous one hundred and seventy-seven goals, more than one goal per game, other important statistics to take into account, as a player mainly on the wing, its possibilities. The creation was still present with high assist numbers as well as key passing numbers. He still took a lot of shots from distance, but you can see a steady decline as he once again started playing smarter and smarter.

He was too involved in the build-up to the game with a fairly high average of passes per game as well as a fairly high dribbling rate, as he started from deep and looked to make his way into the box, he is becoming more and more ruthless and , as he said, I see football as a mission, go on the field, win and make me better and then we get to the second real version of Ronaldo Ronaldo was smart enough to start adapting before his age forced him to adapt with me all the night at the club. Zhou was sold and they switched to a pure 433, the slight change meant Ronaldo would be positioned closer to goal as they previously used a cam.

They now use two central midfielders. The ball for the most part likes to keep width on the right side and with its quality it attracted defenders who opened up more. space in the center Ronaldo therefore started more often centrally sorry I used an unbalanced 433 with Ronaldo and Benzema central Benzema x' and selfishness meant I often worked at the back defensively instead of the other team this became more pronounced under Sudan the first things dad

was the number of games Ronaldo played in, as the graph shows, he convinced the man who wants to play every minute of every game to take a break occasionally to extend his career at the top, in Secondly, when he played Z field and his aging legs no longer had to pick up the ball. from deep and progressed themselves would now just drop down for offensive link-up play next to the bat lurking in the box waiting for a fullback to cross or playing on the defender's shoulder waiting for ESCO to play.

He went from deadly winner to clinical striker. It is a change confirmed by Ronaldo himself when he said: "I am different now. I am more of a penalty box player, not so much on the wing because from there you score more goals, so I change position slightly. It has been a natural change and It certainly helped keep me happy. This version of Ronaldo got another two Ball goals, leading to the most goals in history and the statistics clearly support this development. In this phase he made 127 appearances and scored 134 calls again. above a goal per game because he played high on the field he had fewer opportunities to cross and create says that the assist numbers began to decrease his shots per game remained within the same stadium but most importantly his shots from outside the box had decreased, meaning he was taking the same number of shots but now they were outside a higher quality, his reduced involvement in a set-back play is visible in his reduced average of passes per game as well as his average of dribbles per game as it's all about efficiency and not style, as he said in those moments when I went onto the field thinking I'm going to dribble, if I'm honest I don't have those moments anymore but the statistic that exemplifies his transformation are his offsides per game early in his career in Israel because they were usually well below one offside per game when he started from deep and then looked. moving forward, but now playing on the shoulders of defenders, that number almost doubled, but he still maintained that lethal streak that kept him as one of the best players in the world, so it was the end of the
