what is the REAL value of C.Ronaldo?

obviously, 100 million EUro is preposterous for a big game choker

considering the price of other players on the market, what is the Portuguese really worth ?

for instance, the price of Schweinsteiger, aka "Richter gnadenlos", is reputed to be a mere 20 million Euro

ah

and why does his price Ronaldo not suddenly drop after a pretty average Euro 2008 ?

He isn't a big game choker IMO, he just isn't particularly influential against better defences/teams

You also have to take into account his marketability...and as such that will always add a hefty chunk onto his value

In this case his price is inflated by the money Madrid will recoup in endorsements and shirt sales.

As they did with Beckham+Ronaldo.

He is a stupid c**t who made things difficult for himself.

But in the first game he was good, second man of the match, third didn't play. 4th not so great, but it's not a Gomez here. His last big game before that he was motm in a cl final. some choker

Considering his marketability, I would say somewhere between Kuyt and Beckham.

Considering his influence on big games, I would say somewhere between Zaccardo and Kaka.

I dont care much for marketability so i will value him after the last very expensive player we got who was Zidane.now he went for around 45 mil £
which is alot and looking back he is the only player i would ever pay that much for. he was worth it for all the magic he delivered. now he was the finished product so unlike Ronaldo i didnt need to wait for him to develop.

Ronaldo doesnt have the football brain that Zidane has and he prob never will but he can still do some improving in that area. his passing has to get better. if he is to be bought im hoping he will deliver the same as Figo did.
he is a great goalscorer but he wont get as much room in the area because Raul+Ruud will be there. his job will be to assist those two which is what worries me. he also seems best in a counter attacking team or a direct team which is why he should prob stay in England. the only team that would really suit his style in Spain is Sevilla. from a sporting point of view considering the impact he would likely have he should cost no more then 35 £ mil but with age considered i can see why people would put it higher.
