- CR7's unbelivable career may be coming to its eventual end but with over 2 decades spent at the pinnacle of the sport, he will forever be remembered as one of the game's all-time greats. A man of records, he is Europe's goalscoring GOAT, and has a trophy cabinet of dreams, serially winning in every country, but when, and where did he play his best football?

Where does CR7 rank (all-time) for you?
5th CR7 4th Di Stefano 3rd Maradona 2nd Pele 1st Messi. GOAT category in terms of trophies/lethal but didn’t offer as much to the game outside of goalscoring. Elite mentality/efficiency rather than god-like natural ability. Probably the greatest European player to do it although I believe Cryuff had the better talent & influence on the game.
@@nmarcus7233 funny how you have never in your life watched di stefano or maradona or pele but u put them above ronaldo. saying those older players instead of ronaldo doesnt make u seem u have gret football knowledge it makes you look like an idiot
#1 the goat of football suiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
#1 and not because ima Real Madrid fan, because he won everything everywhere. Because his country is a small one and never won anything before him. If he never won anything on the international stage then he would be #2. Of course this is my opinion, but Messi was suppose to win, it’s Argentina, they are meant to be a super power in World Football. Figo’s generation to Cristiano is Portugal’s golden era in my opinion and the generation that should’ve won it didn’t but he carried it forward. Again, just my opinion as an avid fan of the sport. 🤙
number 1 always has been always will be
The Brazillian Ronaldo is the reason I started watching football... the Portugese Ronaldo is why I never stopped
Both are my favourite players.
If I have to choose a player to play as a forward in a big stage game. Both R9 and CR7 will come to mind because these players have calibre to score in big stages...
Me too
@@stevetherush1193 I just miss those El Clasico games with Messi and Ronaldo at their best... damn those were the days😭
So you look at football like a little girl looks at a boy band 😂 you are the definition of a fan boy and we all know what fanboy really means 😉
@@MrThedonhead cringe🤡
The Mourinho and Ancelotti era at Real was his prime.
Are you related to Cunny Funt by any chance?
YES,his prime was most definitely between 2011-2016
Zidane did great too
He made them go back to back European champions
@@mrmeeseeks2534 2008-2018
Al-Nassr is his prime
42 Assists in UCL edging Messi. This is one of the most insane things of Ronaldo. We take goals for granted but the fact he actually helped the team as well while scoring the most is insane. He is Mr Champions League.
most goals most assists most goals in QF SF F where he doubled Messi tally most hat tricks in UCL. Literally that is his pet trophy. 5 times in 9 years is 60%. This is so insane man...
That's one of the reasons why CR7 is the 2nd best player of his generation. This guy is an absolute legend! I love him and It's sad that such a great player like CR7 will forever be in Messi's shadow
In how many appearances?
@@ZtkW816In Messi’s shadow is only Neymar
@@ZtkW816 no way. He is different and so is Messi. Messi never really proved himself outside Spain
Messi at PSG best playmaker in the world. Ronaldo worst player in WC KO in history
80% players coaches legends say Messi is goat
His time at Madrid is the type of career that is still unmatched imo, consider the goal ratio and the number of trophies he won, solo goals, freekicks, headers, penalties, dribbles, assists, left foot, right foot, influence on the pitch, off the pitch, every single skill, he was the definition of PRIME.
I mean Messi was better in almost all those stats
@@Vloneburritofirst of all he mentioned Madrid, so you can check ronaldo goal contribution was far better than messi while he was at madrid. Second, i guess everyone who has watched football can tell ronaldo has more goals scored with his head, weaker foot and simply has a better catalogue of goals to his account. He also scored more of hatricks during those years at madrid, won 4 UCLs in a span of 9 years. So no, messi wasn't better than ronaldo at madrid.
@@Vloneburritodo you know how to read? Or am I dumb and Messi was in Madrid?
He’s been my favorite player since 07/08, and his entire career is a masterpiece
And that was his prime also and people for some strange reason ignore that version of Ronaldo
Ronaldo was always on his prime
It was just Messi made him look JUST ABOVE AVERAGE
@@njnbrlre2679 Messi made him look better bro what you on about
@@njnbrlre2679 True. also he made such a big fanbase by becoming full time instagram star. That people were expecting him to surpass Messi.
@@njnbrlre2679 Messi is nothing but a Barcelona product most of his trophies he won in Spain. Once he got out his comfort zone he is just an average player. PSG should buy referees like Barcelona atleast for Messi to win more trophies
2007/08 2011/12 and 2013/14 were his best seasons. He became are pure number 9 after a knee problem in 2014 and became more reliant on others to a greater extent to be effective than he was before.
he wasn’t a pure 9 cuz he played on the wing and he had 100x the dribbling and passing ability of pure 9s like Haaland, lewa etc
@@CxstaOfficial I think he meant he plays more centrally after the tendinosis injury by the fact he attempted less dribbles
Ronaldo was never a pure Number 9. A pure number 9 is essentially a classic striker, who can hold up play in the middle and stay in the box. Ronaldo's best performances has always been coming off from the left to arrive in the middle to score. He more or less works best with a striker who switches positions with him whenever needed, which is why Benzema was the perfect partner for him.
Wouldn't say a pure #9 but definitely more like a #9 compared to his previous #7 role with the previously unseen scoring prowess as a #7 (winger). To do that switch and perform still at a very high level is not an every day ocurrance. Both positions comes with its own dynamics, skill sets, positional awareness, etc. So @ the urging of Zidane, the RM Manager at the time, Ronaldo listened to his career prolonging advice ie, do less dribbling to avoid tackles, etc., etc.,. In 2014, before the Brazil WC, I remember when the news came out regarding the tendonitis in his left knee and the rigorous regimen, both on a daily basis as well as part of his pre game regimen BEFORE hitting the pitch. I remember thinking when the regimen was explained in detail, the mental strength one would need to do that on a daily basis, etc... Just amazing tbh. I mean supposedly he spends almost 1.5 hrs with his pregame routine, before he even hits the field. Lots of respect for that kind of dedication and mental strength, just to be able to play.
@@daniaaal
Exactly, he scored so many goals in so little amount of games for Real Madrid that everyone forgot he was a winger
He was more effective from the wing
They tried to move him to the middle because of his goalscoring ability but then they discovered he was more effective from the wing due to his completeness
He's also more effective while playing alongside another striker as we saw at Juve
Watching him with Benzema and Bale is such an absolute privilege many will forget, but not all. An absolute powerhouse attacking trio, Ronaldo with his efficiency all around, Benzema with a knack for scoring and Bale with unstoppable speed is the perfect combination, and it showed.
Ronaldo with Rooney and Tevez wasnt too bad as well
Cristiano Ronaldo has had 4 primes
Only player to have more that one prime
He always preformed as the best even with different playstyles throughout his career
2005/06 - 2009/10 was his first prime
He played on the right wing, was exciting with his dribbling and skill moves, world class at playmaking and still kept a high level of goalscoring, excellent in the air and could use both feet
The most complete version of any footballer ever
2010/11 - 2014/15 was his second prime
He became the greatest goalscorer ever during this period and he was a winger and was still excellent at dribbling and passing, remained the best at skill moves and was still complete
This was the peak of Cristiano Ronaldo statistically
He moved to the left wing in 2012 (11/12 season) and became a left winger and was still the best at goalscoring.
This was a very feared version of Ronaldo and he was explos1ve during this period
He became the fastest footballers in the world
2015/16 - 2018/19 was his third prime
This was known as his clutch prime and is considered by many as the most feared version of any footballer because he always broke fans hearts with late goals and comeback hattricks and he took the biggest clubs apart so easily. He also kept on winnng and winning and showing what it means to be the greatest footballer ever. Dominating every competition in sight and owning UCL
This was the legendary Noodle - hair Ronaldo era
2019/20 - 2021/22 was his fourth
In this period he became a striker and was moved to the middle
He showed his longevity and he dominated 2020
He scored 31 league goals at the age of 35 and was worth €75M
He scored 30 league goals at 36 and scored 2 premier league hattricks at 37 and was nominated for the ballon d'or with an extremely weak team
Notice how his playstyle always changed during these and how he always adapted to different situations and still continued to remain on top of football
No player has ever experienced such changes in their career and still continued to remain at the highest level
We may never see this again
Cristiano Ronaldo will always be the best and most complete footballer ever 🐐

Good comment mate.
his 2nd ManUnited stint was pure Penaldo.
@@Shomerful why do you have to write that?

@@blaze9552nah thats messi. Has more goals, assist, dribbles, ballon do'rs, golden boot, world cup golden ball, wc mvp while being a play maker and top that up with copa america, finalissima and a world cup. The goat
Cristiano Ronaldo has been an elite player throughout his entire career and still is. His prime was far longer than the average player and somewhere between 2007-2015. He was phenomenal before 2007 and also after 2015 but between 2007 and 2015 is when he was elite in all aspects of his game.
I agree. Those 7-8 years was just phenomenal.
2016-2018 was his proper utilisation in big stages.
He literally won 3 ucl as the top goal scorer...
His best years as a complete player were probably '07/'08/'09. The dribbling, pace, power, whilst possessing everything else he's renowned for.
You have a good point there
dude 14/15 he made 84 scorer points. 07-09 were garbage compared to that. You clearly don't know Ball.
@@theworld5881 you're clearly a stat merchant, who's too overly influenced by yankee sports. I know football? But what the fuck is _'ball?'_
In 2014 Ronaldo was diagnosed with chronic tendinitis, a knee condition that is hinderous, painful and gets worse over time. Because of this he had to adapt his playstyle and very shortly after was no longer capable of consistent blistering and mazing dribbles alongside his other elite attributes. He won his first Ballon d'Or in 2008, breaking and setting the PL goals scored in a season record because he was the compete player and was essentially unplayable, he did this in the hardest, most demanding and intense league in the world. His numbers contextually were phenomenal when you take into account the schedule, physicality and level of teams he played and this is why Madrid signed him.
Following 2014, he was no longer that player and whilst he adapted into becoming one of the worlds greatest ever goal scorers, poaching with elite positioning etc he was never the same player. He may have scored more, won more trophies or however else you wish to frame it, but he was no longer a complete player.
I framed the statement as Ronald's best years as a complete player, a player that everyone wants and needs in their team, who can create and assist in a multitude of ways. For example Bayern didn't need post 2014 Ronaldo when they had Lewandowski, but they would've taken '08 Ronaldo above either of their wingers.
Learn to read things properly, look beyond stats when there's no context and do some research.
@The World bro what are you on about 😂
@@theworld5881 You are a moron,stop watching football
For me his prime is from 2012 - 2019. His ability was reduced compared his early years but his impact was at it's greatest e.g his hattricks against Atletico 2019 or Spain 2018.
yea that impact we saw at united. scored goals... team suffered.
The hat trick against that Spain side was otherworldly
@@Shomerful Wait.
The team didn't suffer according to you when Fred played on the pitch.
The Team didn't suffer when Mctominay started the day in and day out.
The TEAM didn't suffer when Mason Greenwood decided to bash up his ex.
The TEAM only suffered when Ronaldo scored.
Hypocrites like you like to protect Mctominay because you have an agenda against Ronaldo.
Fine, having any views against Ronaldo is natural. What isn't is to put the entire blame on him for the failure of United.
It was always Mctominay, and Fred who was producing stinkers on the pitch slowly killing the club.
Even the goat Messi should have an exorcism done because Scott Mctominay said he thinks Messi is a goat.
The point I'm making here is Scott Mctominay is the Osama Bin Laden of football and you today blame Ronaldo while not calling out the fraud that is Scott Mctominay.
Scott Mctominay destroyed every player's career at United and mark my words, he will destroy at least one club by the end of his career.
He is the greatest antithesis of good football but according to you, only Ronaldo is the problem.
I can agree that in Madrid or at Juventus, you could see Ronaldo being an issue in his later years. But at United Scott Mctominay was destroying the club long before Ronaldo arrived and he was getting a helping hand from Glazers.
@@natalkumar6132 keep waffling. Mctominay keeps getting all the goals from the midfield anyway..
@@Shomerful fuck you talking about?
11/12 is league Prime
14/15 is his statistical prime
06/07 is his playmaking prime
09/10 is his most complete
13/14 is overall prime imo
Spot on. 2009/10 was extremely well rounded
Ronaldo was always on his prime
It was just Messi made him look JUST ABOVE AVERAGE
11/12 was his absolute prime destroyed the euros that year.
@@njnbrlre2679 you can think messi is better than Ronaldo but saying that he makes Ronaldo look "just above average" is the most delusional shit I've ever heard😂
Lol tell me one rea era which is better than that Manchester era, Manchester Ronaldo was a beast
My favorite era was winning 4 UCL’s in 5 seasons with Madrid. He was the top scorer of the competition every time, and set the 3 best individual goal scoring seasons in the UCL during those seasons as well. Our team was stacked, and with Ronaldo up top it was impossible for us to lose in those games. For me, clinching the 3 peat in 2018 made him the greatest of all time. He stepped up everytime we needed him in that era, and closed out his beautiful Madrid career on top of the world.
Both Ronaldo and Messi have their case for being the GOAT of football, but to deny that one is much more superior than the other (especially during their insane prime years in Spain) is ignorance to the highest degree. Easily the top 2 in the game all time.
@@dradl4 yep, it’s true. Denying that Ronaldo is greater than Messi is pure ignorance.
@@dradl4 At the end of the day, its just a matter of preference. Both have achieved GOAT status a long time ago.
@@dradl4 Top 2 of all time? Pele and Maradona existed my boy
@@aaronchiam8801 old head
For me it was his 07-08 season. Scored nearly a goal a game which was unheard of in the Premier league at that point and he did it from Right midfield! Not winger, not on the left flank cutting in, right midfield! Incredible. He was a phenomenon around that time. His 2nd 'peak' was as a LW around 2012-14 where his shooting was simply godly.
He was a Winger in 2007/08 RW/LW
Stop lying you hater he was NEVER a midfielder he was a winger.
@@m3ga975There are no wingers in 4-4-2 formations
@@Legen855on paper it looks like right midfielder but if you actually watched him back then he was an attacking right winger. Baffles me that people still think he was a right midfielder.
@@Mono_303 I know it seemed like he played like a winger but if you look closely he falls back when he passes the ball to somebody upfront which a winger doesn’t do plus how do player winger when there are two strikers in front of you
He is in the top 2 all time. People who say Messi cannot be admonished but this man since leaving Real has played under sub par management and teamates yet still achieved so much. Ronaldo is the definition of a true warrior, not perfect but all mighty.
To be fair since 2019 both Ronaldo and Messi have fallen off
Getting 5 managers sacked in 4 years. yea some subpar management..
@@Shomerful we've got breaking news... Inside information from one of the leading journalists... Scandalous stuff... Never heard before... Definitely not made up by this stupid person in the comments section!🤣🤣😭😭

@@Shomerful are you dumb my good fellow? sacking that many managers is an indication of subpar management not any poor decision making on the part of Ronaldo... Except maybe choosing those shit clubs to begin with.
Love him or hate him, but Cristiano put in all the work to get to the top. I could have done with a little less theatrics but it sure was entertaining, and it created the perfect counterpart to Messi.
100 percent
His skill and hard work did not elevate him to Messi's counterpart; it was Perez's PR machine.
I don’t ❤
❤😊❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
😊😊😊
I'd say his first couple of seasons in Madrid were his best. Mature and explosive as it gets.
His peak is at Madrid. Before 30 he was breaking records and after 30 he was still breaking records. The only man who scored 100+ goals for a club having a one goal per game ratio. The all time top scorer for Madrid and second in the La Liga all time top scorer. Only Messi scored more. Like him or not he's still one of the greatest player of his generation.
If we look at his total goals. I feel he was always in his prime last 2 seasons were he came up short but still last season was a blast. He is evergreen.
You gotta be joking
@@eniolaelisery1503 Yeah he gives me chance to joke for last 20 years
Prime means best of his entire career. No one can maintain their prime for so long.

Agreed.
Such a sad ending for such a legend, I really hope he can make a great comeback 🇵🇹
hes 38 dont expect so much let bro rest
Don't see it that way.
It's more like he was on top for more than 18 years and now he is just chilling and playing for us in his last few years.
These years are special as they won't come back and we won't see in the future playing him for any club and Portugal.
So enjoy it while it lasts and don't care about the haters they always have something to say even in his prime...
Bad ending when it comes too Manchester United. Still blows my mind how they would rather be bad and have bad coaching over CR7 starting in the lineup
Unfortunately, he should have just accepted less money to stay in a top club in Europe and play more of a mentor role. But I do respect him building his wealth in Saudi
bro he's already got hundreds of millions he doesnt need any more. it was an absolutely terrible decision, and its not like the saudis are some backwater medieval religious dictatorship. @@orbit5311

When Madrid lost 2-0 to Wolfsburg, i too was confident Ronaldo would turn it around in the 2nd leg, and he did

Any era. Every time he is on the pitch it's magical. His determination and defiance makes him magical.
What a master piece you just created!!! Wonderful. As I see, 2007-8 then 2014-18 he was on his prime in verieties of roles. As a center man then a winger, he played at no. 10 sometimes too. If we compare today's best players with him, his 2021-22 season will be valid. Other than that, every season he was the king on the pitch.

I would say his peak was in 2014, he was joint topscorer for the golden boot, 17 goals in 11 in the UEFA Champions League (the most ever in the history of the Champions League), won the Champions League itself, won the Ballon D'or and UEFA POTY boasting great number to show despite his injury. Although his disastrous FIFA World Cup performances, I believe he made up for it everywhere else, LaLiga, Champions League, you name it, he did it.

The main difference between Messi and Cristiano is CR7 changed his style and dynamics his entire career to be successful, and was blamed for his club's failure. That's why its hard to pick his prime. Though, I would say from his first to last bollon d'or was his prime.
Messi didn’t need to change his style tho because he outperforms ronaldo in goal scoring, as well as playmaking.

Cr7 just stirs up emotions anytime he plays
His overall prime would have to be from 2006-2015 those were his best years physically wise as he was outpacing everyone during those years from 2016 onwards man was playing through his peak but I think his time in Man United second spell would probably called his declining years where he was not as effective yet still had moments of brilliance

CR7 prime was in united , his move away from united was needed so that his prime could be well rewarded he would have not gotten that at united if he had stayed and truth is united could not afford to keep him . his come back to united showed after all those years the club was still recovering from the retirement of Alex .
i am proud to say and have lived and watched him play and still watch him play he is by far the best in this age . cant compare him to others he is unique and will always will be. CR7 forever .
If he had stayed at United, they would have won the CL in 2010 and potentially 2012 as well. He would have gone nuclear in both years.
Top video. I am not interested in his life story but seeing him in these various 'prime' phases is excellent.
CR7 2008/09 & 2017/18 Are pretty different but in their own ways those 2 eras are definitely even one of the best ever version of a player 🥶🥶💙
personally 2009 to 2014 the best version of Ronaldo.. Free-kick, longshots, dribbling, passing, u name it he had everything.
amazing video👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
11/12 will forever be CR7's prime imo
the ironic is, that messi had his prime in that season to
He was everything that year
@@e.l.b6435 Fax
@@e.l.b6435Ronaldo and messi had multiple multiple years of prime
Its also my fav but 2013 was also incrudible
My GOAT 🙂
CR7 always 🤘🏻
I think from at least 2011 to 2013 he was at his physical peak, he could do everything in the attacking department and he did it with pure speed.
Title: When was Ronaldo in his prime
Video: Summary of Ronaldo's career
These videos are amazing man, keep up the good work. Looking forward to this channel growing.
I think he is prime was 2017 spring and 2017/2018. He was not score as much as in previous seasons, but he was scoring and helping for real in the most important matches.
You could argue that the guy has been in his prime for nearly 15 years (which in itself is absolutely ridiculous). But relatively speaking, his prime is between 2007-2013. He had the speed and agility, and could score goals all by himself week in week out. And these are not even the seasons he scored the most goals, but imo the player he was during those years was something else. One season stands out in my mind, the 2011-12 season. That's peak Cr7 right there.
I love your videos 🤩🤩 keep up
Ronaldo has many primes. But primest of all primes were 2013-2017(my opinion ✌🏻) . In this period he won literally everything and was very clinical and technical be it from winger counterattack, aerial , long shot, setpiece, outside and inside box . In stats ,wins, records, abilities he was on diff league. Simply one of GOATS 🐐🔥💯.
As a Cris fan, he obviously had more than one prime but for me the 2017 - 18 Ronaldo was just something else.
I’m glad you put the documentary together for us who weren’t there to see the story from the beginning
I think people mistake “prime” for “peak” Ronaldo's prime was probably from 2008 to 2021 arguably. His peak years were from 2011 to 2016 in my opinion.
Yeah
i think he had different primes for different abilities, same as messi. He was a much better dribbler in his late united years and early madrid but a better player as he was smarter towards the 3 peat era. Messi was a better dribbler when he was younger and had more drive but now he’s arguably the best playmaker in the world, he was always a good playmaker but not the best in the world when he was young
That's what the video says!
Thank you so much for this 🥺🙏🏽❤️
Amazing video. so well researched and written
I know a lot of people say 2013/14 was his best season cuz he broke the UCL record for most goals by a player in the command la decima but IMO his best Espn was the 11/12 season. I felt his game was complete as he still had the dribbling from Man United days but was more of a goalscoring machine plus he played more games that season then a in 2013/14.
He got 118 in 292 games for Utd during his first spell. He scored 145 across both spells
Fantastic video!!
Great sensible Video...🔥
Imagine being the best player in the world. The next season there was a midget guy from Barcelona who wins everything. Yet he choose to came to Spain to confront the biggest challenge in his life(Messi). They both dominated football for 10 years. Only Ronaldo can put Messi on number 2, and only Messi can put Ronaldo on number 2. They both are irreplaceable, both player living in physical and tactical era, which no player nowadays play except them. Stop comparing, they both top of their class, 2 different player, 2 different personality, 2 GOAT.
When people are debating about his prime it says a lot about his longevity
People are debating his prime and often talk about his longevity, so what's your point ?
@@theworld5881 he's saying that the fact that Cristiano has multiple primes throughout his carreer really speaks for his longevity and how many years he's stayed on top
I'll just say that the video was amazing, you're one of the few bringing an opinion here without making me cringe even when agreeing. But what made me put a comment is the violin version of kiss from a rose! Greetings from Greece
His prime on Real was the best time i ever had , seeing him score some goals that I can never forget. Watching BBC breaking apart teams, having rivalry with Messi, those were the best times.
Even at ManU he was really good but he wasn't playing there as a striker and in PL it's difficult that too being that era
Anyone that doesn't put him in the top #2 of ALL time is delusional.

You did not pin point exact game from which ronaldo completely changed his game it was the knee injury against malaga in 2014 since then he slowed down and stoped dribling and focused on his aerial ability after that injury he use to spend 6 hours a day just to cure knee not football training or any physical training
This man is a living legend,he entertained us everywhere he played,respect.
Good video! I watched the whole thing, very interesting(I’m a cr7 fan)
13/14 I think he had everything he had skill,pace and goals I think while his knee injury maybe made him a more efficient goal scorer I think that 13/14 season he had it all
For me the best season he had was 2007/08
Great analysis man🖤✌🏻
i have tears in my eyes... he is the best and im happy when i see him play. but over is coming and im not still ready for it.😢 lot of people will cry and remember what he did in his entire amazing career. super ballon dor waiting for him. he deserve it
As a fellow portuguese who accompanied his carrier for more than a decade I think that his prime was between 2010 and 2020. I think he was at his best in the 2011-12 season.
Bro thinks being Portuguese is a credential 😂😂😂😂😂😂
bro is portuguese and got a messi pfp 😂your "goat" penaldo is finished
@@KurtAnglesPerc It is since Portuguese people are the ones who closely followed his career the most.
@@Azure_aep Bro you are dumb AF. Who told you that Ronaldo is "my goat"? Use your fcking brain d*mbfck
@@mitonaarea5856 didn't know it was possible for a portuguese to like messi more than penaldo. proud of you man
Based on mainly DRIBBLING and GOALS
1. 2011 / 2012
2. 2010 / 2011
3. 2007 / 2008
this video is the best example of a complete content shout-out to the creator well done brother
His dribbling prime is my favorite. He was incredibly entertaining to watch.
Dribbling-wise? Manchester United.
Everything else? Real Madrid.
Next Question
Dribbling and Playingmaking wise
