Default Cristiano Ronaldo

Forget Drogba, this man is the best player in the country.

Two in six minutes - sensational.

Oh, and now another from Ole!

Lol I was getting a sweat on as had him as captain in my fantasy team and he was sat on the bench for the first half. My faith was rewarded - come on the hat trick. 10 prem goals already this season - not bad for a winger (no whinger jokes pls paul)

No winker comments either.

Rooney's just hit the bar too.

We've been playing some fantastic football recently, such a great watch - and we're without Rio, Neville, Carrick, Giggs and Saha today.

Tbh we play better without Saha. I really dont like the way he plays. Lone striker and always behind the ball never attacking near post.

I,m a liverpool fan and if liverpool turned round and offered £30 million for ronaldo i would be over the moon, he is by far the best player in the prem at the moment all he needs to do is cut out the diving. He can turn a game individuly which i think is a rarity in todays game, the power he gets behind the shots is unbelievable and especially if you notice how little backlift he has when he takes a shot. Still ugly as f*ck though

And I stand by it, at the time he was behaving like a ****, thankfully he came back listened to what SAF said to him, got his head down and showed his class on the pitch, now if he had come back and continued to behave like he did back then he probably wouldn't even be in the squad and yes I would want him to rot, so Paul the point is ? time to let go of those straws you're so fond of clutching

I still don't know where people are getting this from. He went past him several times but the final ball wasn't the best. He tended to be bailed out by Terry covering.

Cynical challenge.

YouTube - Cole vs Ronaldo

Few years back made to look silly.

Ditto. Funny how he actually had to be subbed after that challenge

How I did chuckle at Cashley Cole's misfortune on Tuesday
