Ronaldo doesn't want to play as a No.9, claims Ferdinand

The Real Madrid superstar's former teammate says the Ballon d'Or winner is a different kind of player than he was several years ago
Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand says Cristiano Ronaldo has changed his playing style since their time together at Old Trafford.
Long-time Red Devils defender Ferdinand crossed paths with the current Real Madrid star at Manchester United from 2003-2009 but has noticed that Ronaldo's style with Los Blancos and his responsibilities on the field have evolved significantly.

"I don’t think he really wants to play as a No.9 because he can be tied down there and he can be left a bit isolated," Ferdinand said. "He likes being able to come from the wide areas where he gets a little bit of space and that’s where he can do his magic.
"But he used to stand out wide and want to get the ball and take people on. He’s not that player no more.
"He wants to get the ball in areas where he can hurt teams and have end product, which is goals or assists, and at the moment there’s no better man on the planet doing that."
Ronaldo currently is with Portugal at the Confederations Cup, where he is tied for top scorer at the tournament with two goals.
A wave of speculation was unleashed earlier this month about the potential of Ronaldo returning to Manchester United, with the player reportedly unhappy at how Real Madrid were dealing with his tax case.
Is Ronaldo going to leave Real Madrid?

Happy New Year Readers. I know some of you might be wondering why I haven't posted anything since the first week of December, oh well I took a break and I'm back with this exclusive review of the Movie July 12th. JULY 12 TH : WHAT LIES IN DEATH? 'Love is a form of pain. It is a drug: it could get you high and watch you fall really low. It can keep you in a limbo and serve you difficult questions on the platter of a quest. It is in those moments when you hunger for the answers that you become someone else, a monster, a human being, or simply a skeptic perhaps worst of all, dead. This is what Inala Felix's July 12 th : The Movie directed by Onome Egba stages in the mind of the viewers but you can never be too sure because in the game of love and mental health, there is not a single stable story as every thought in you asks: what do you believe? Starring Chinonso Ukah as Jumoke and Tony as Doctor Oche, July 12th brings to life the imaginative coherence in the sc

According to the  Express , by George Simpson AVENGERS INFINITY WAR saw Captain America killed by Thanos, but was brought back with the Time Stone, claims an amazing new theory in the wake of Avengers 4. In the climax of Marvel’s Avengers Infinity War, Thanos arrived in Wakanda ready to pluck the Mind Stone from Vision’s head. During his walk towards him, the Avengers tried to stop Thanos, but he swatted them aside with ease. This included Captain America boldly holding him by the Infinity Gauntlet before received a massive blow to the back of the head. Now a popular new fan theory claims that hit actually killed Steve Rogers, only for Thanos to resurrect him just so he could reform Vision and take the Mind Stone. Thanos ended his short battle with Cap with a punch to the back of the head. “Many wondered how Cap recovered in mere seconds from a punch that even took out the Hulk and the most logical explanation is that he didn’t. “As Thanos used the time stone

Rafael Nadal will finish 2017 as year-end number one in the Emirates ATP Rankings after beating Hyeon Chung 7-5, 6-3 on Wednesday in the second round of the Rolex Paris Masters. The 31-year-old Nadal will be the oldest year-end number one and first season-ending number one over the age of 30 since the Emirates ATP Rankings were established in 1973.
