End of an Era - Goodbye GOAT Cristiano Ronaldo

Greatest goalscorer to ever play for us up to this point, thanks for the goals , thanks for helping us win the many trophies and good luck in the future

 

I'm staying
Ever since I set foot inside that stadium, I've fell for this club. I'll just have to find time in my life to watch Juve. There's just so many sports...

 

Damn, I just realized I won't ever watch him play live for Madrid, as I'll be attending a game at Bernabeu in September for the first time. Looking forward to the Benzema-Bale show.

 

Speaking of those two, since C is gone, we know have The B.B. KINGS! (copyright, trts, 2018, all rights reserved)

 

Almost everyone on the team has said their goodbyes on social media.

.@Cristiano, your goals, your numbers and everything we've won together speak for themselves. You have earned a special place in the history of @RealMadrid. As Madridistas we'll remember you always. It's been a pleasure to play alongside you, bicho. Big hig and good luck! 🍀👍🏻 pic.twitter.com/NaywaDd3gw

I’m going next season, first time in a long time, missed all of Ronnie’s time with us - gutted.

Cristiano, dejas una huella imborrable en el madridismo y en todos los que hemos tenido el honor de ser tus compañeros. Gracias por tu trato siempre con los más jóvenes y por ser un espejo en el que mirarse para progresar en cada entrenamiento. Ha sido un placer pic.twitter.com/FCS6VMsGDX

"Cristiano, you leave a mark in the madridismo and in all of us who had the honor of being your teammates. Thank you for the way you treated us youngsters and for being a mirror in which to look at to progress in each training. It has been a pleasure."

 

Thank you Ronaldo..

You made us invisible and impossible seemed like nothing!

I'll always remember watching that Valencia home game before the CL final and the blistering pace you had and Arbs last game...

Gracias GOAT and hope you do well in your new venture except against us!

Hala Madrid!

 

Who thought that Ronaldo is the first one to leave among the BBC?

 

Invincible?

 

Legend.

 

Para los canteranos siempre has sido un ejemplo a seguir y yo he intentado fijarme en cada detalle para aprender lo máximo posible. Todos los madridistas no te olvidaremos nunca, lo has dado todo por este escudo y esta camiseta. Ha sido un lujo y un orgullo ser tu compañero. pic.twitter.com/0PGpHU6uJ0

"It has been a great pleasure to play alongside the best player in the world. You leave an unforgettable memory, thanks for being an example for everyone and every day. Wish you the best in your next stage, Cristiano."



"Cristiano, thank you for the legacy you left in this club, it has always been a pleasure to play with you, may God bless you in your next step."



No Varane, Modric and Kova (WC I assume), Isco, Casilla, and Marcelo, who must be gutted.

 

Marcelo’s message will be the most special of them all.

 

I've watch some of their games. I am sure now a lot of us will have a bigger incentive to watch more Serie A games..Contrary to most here I have a soft spot for Juventus.. I like how they go about their transfers.. getting the best players available for cheap.. even in this case. Pipita was the exception I believe.

 

Definitely got emotional watching that video.... Gracias Ronaldo. No jersey will look better on you than ours. He gave us some AMAZING moments!

Things are special partly because at some point they end... This is one of those.

Hala Madrid!

 

this one got me

made me remember the state of the club when he joined and the journey it's been to get to where it is now

 

^ That's nothing compared to me watching the MBappe WC games, and remembering all the people that made fun of me wanting to do what had to be done to sign him last summer.

A mix of sadness, and angriness, while wanting to yell at clouds.

 

That's how I am:

 

Dude STFU.

I wanted Mbappe here last year and the only reason Cristiano could leavewas because Florentino paved the way.

 

Ughhhh Juve.... that being said came to pay my respects to an absolute legend. The dedication he showed to his craft is an example for all athletes (training, diet, fitness, etc).

Mixed bag for sure, like others said not a huge fan of some of his personality traits but perhaps that's what made him great. I know some people are upset but we might look back at this in the future and say this happened at the right time.

It'll be an interesting summer to see how everything else pans out. One thing we can't discount is the team has over the years been built in a way to support him... whoever our attack ends up being better not expect the same unless they score at the rate he did for us.

Thanks for the memories! When I'm an old ass man I'm sure I'll rant to someone about how I watched him play, walked uphill both ways to school in freezing weather, etc.
