 He was good in parts but he should have done better. He cannot do it on the BIG stage.

HE HAD A DECENT TOURNAMENT BUT NOTHING THAT STOOD OUT,HE HAS TOO MUCH ON

HIS MIND AND SHOULD HAVE SORTED OUT HIS FUTURE BEFORE THE TOURNAMENT.

HOWEVER HE HAS PROVED HIMSELF THIS YEAR IN BIG GAMES AND HAS DONE IT BEFORE

FOR PORTUGAL,HE WILL BE WORLD PLAYER OF THE YEAR BUT I THINK HE SHOULD STAY AT 

 MAN UTD FOR 2/3 MORE SEASONS,BECAUSE HE NEEDS TO WIN 4/5 LEAGUES AND 2/3 CHAMPIONS

 LEAGUE TITLES AND A FEW PLAYER OF THE YEAR AWARDS AND CEMENTS HIS PLACE IN ENGLISH

FOOTBALL HISTORY BEFORE MOVING ON. 

He did alright but didn't deliver in the way people were expecting him to. Maybe it was the weight of expectation and Germany did play brilliantly in the quarter final. He will more than likely leave United this summer.

Totally agree.

Apart from the Champions League final were he scored, I can't think of many other "big games" where he has proved such a big impact. A bit like Lampard really; only seem to score and perform at their best against the smaller teams.

 Yeah Tom . This proves Ronaldo is not the best in the world . Whereas the should be best players in the world Messi and Kaka do.

He had a decent tournament but the expectations on hin were stupid and impossible

to live up to, he should have sorted out his future before the tuournament and he would

have had a better tournament but he still had a 7/10 Euros.

Hes over rated

He needs to many shots to score

And ur right he cant do it on the big stage

I agree!

Christiano Ronaldo is overated. He dives he cheats he hogs he boasts.

I think jus a bit too full of himself.

42 goals in 48 games, he may be full of himself but you have to say he has good reason to be, his international form was poor at the Euros though.

I think playing for Portugal placed to much expectation on the lad that he could not fulfill single handedly. I've always mocked that ManU is C.Ronaldo but now i see the truth is that Ronaldo stands out in a team full of bright stars playing for Manchester. For me Portugal, for all the hype they created, didnt bring much to the table, especially up front. Other than Ronaldo, Pepe and Bosingwa were standout and Moutinho did well. Deco only came to the party in one match and figures like Petit, Gomes, Mereilles were mediocre. Ronaldo thrives well off plays on the counter but the Portugese national team does not break with half the conviction United has all season long with the move starting with either Scholes or Anderson as target men like Rooney or tevez get into postition up front, then Ronaldo will usually join the party on the left and the results are devastating. With Portugals breaks, Deco or Petit were holding the ball up for far to long and then evetually passing it to Ronaldo who would 9 times out of 10 not even be over the half-way line yet, which gave the player too much to do to be as decisive as usual. 

There's no problem with Ronaldo, rather the Portugese style of counter-attack that does not suit him.. or Nani or quaresma for that matter   

 I refuse to see how Ronaldo stands out. He isnt stand out compared to Giggs , Rooney , Scholes , Tevez and Carrick.

Ronaldo can't deliever in big tournement's yeh right he didn't score a goal in the champo league final.

Scoring a goal in one game dosnt make a difference he cant do it on the big stage.

Fine name player's that can preform on a big stage all the time.

he'll probably say kaka or Messi...
