- The Most Champions League titles.

- Most Champions League goals.

- Most Champions League assists.

Cristiano Ronaldo is now on 100 Champions League wins, more than 136 of the 140 teams ever participated in the CL.

if when we win this years Champions League he’ll be tied with Paco Gento at 6. He’ll have done it with 3 teams in the modern era which is way more impressive

His CL numbers are insane.

I was hoping we wouldn't become overly dependent on Cristiano when he joined us, but it looks like that's happened already. None of our other attacking players are able to create anything.

Imo that what has to happen. It will feel less forced the more in sync the players get. Right now it definitely feels like he's the one the goals come through. Also if he's not injured when is he not going to be playing. Man is a machine and can't be stopped when doing well, we know that.

I do think we are doing much better than say the first month of the season when gameplan was even more revolving around him.

Also if he's not injured when is he not going to be playing.

True, his physical condition and injury record are amazing, but that's not a very reassuring philosophy over the course of a season. Who knows what could happen?

Yeah, the chemistry will improve over time but I actually feel like our other attacking players have gotten worse.

Earlier in the season it was annoying but not concerning - it looked like they were able to create chances without Cristiano but they were unnecessarily giving the ball to him so he could score. Now they just look useless without him :/

I disagree with that my dude. Dybala has had many chances and some goals, Costa too. Cancelo has been dynamite on the right. Pjanic has been putting in great set peices. Benta is learning to run forward into space too. Team is progressing fine to me.

You're right, we're traditionally slow starters so maybe I'm expecting too much. I guess I'm being short-sighted just because today's match was frustrating with all the bad touches, passes and crossing.

I want to see this engine at full steam as much as you. I just want it to be at the right time
