@Kyzen: I feel like people aren’t fully understanding how much Ronaldo’s presence actually influenced the team. There are two things worth considering. 1. Opponents weren’t just defending against the team; they were specifically preparing for Ronaldo. They often needed two players to keep an eye on him, limit his space and prevent him from getting into dangerous positions. That naturally created more space and opportunities for other players. Now that he’s gone, opponents can approach games differently. They no longer have to worry about dedicating extra attention to one player who can punish them at any moment. 2. His influence went beyond the attacking department. When you have someone like Ronaldo up front, the rest of the team knows there’s a reliable attacking threat who can take responsibility and make something happen. That gives defenders more confidence to push forward, press aggressively and support attacks instead of constantly worrying about protecting their own goal. Opponents, on the other hand, had to think twice before committing too many players forward because they knew one lost ball could be enough for Ronaldo to punish them. His age or declining pace didn’t change that fear. Even with one opportunity, he could decide the game. People need to understand that a player like Ronaldo changes the way an entire team operates, even when he isn’t scoring. Opponents have to prepare differently, and teammates can play with a different level of confidence. His departure means losing much more than his goals. It means losing the pressure he put on opponents and the security his presence gave to his own team.

“Throwback to when Real Men played for Portugal” you mean the same players Ronaldo fans slander and say he had to drag in every tournament? The same players you blame for portugals failures and not the whole team (including Ronaldo) for those failures?
