In La Liga, most passes are directly to feet, and you face up your man and beat him from an almost still position, whereas in the EPL Ronaldo's become used to having a ball played into space ahead of him and running onto the ball at pace with the defender already backtracking, this is where he's most deadly, just like Henry & Torres.

I reckon Kaka', provided that he's injury free, will have the better start but Ronaldo will catch up in the 2nd half of the season - if he's willing to share the spotlight, and hasn't thrown his toys out of the pram by then.

A pig might fly.

His strengths are also expressed best when he's got a lot of space ahead of him just like Torres, Henry and Ronaldo. He's more of a "height and pace merchant"(ie Ronaldo, henry, torres according to Pierre) than the creative genius which most people here seem to think he's.

Your second paragraph - spot on

2ndly is he losing his pace.

Ronaldo's performance will depend on how RM use him, in a 442 wing style he would be quite less effective.

-----------------Casillas

S. Ramos----Pepe----Albiol----Marcelo

-----------------X. Alonso

Ribaul------------Kaka----------Silva

----------C. Ronaldo----Villa

Now he has Kaka to contend with he'll start to slide and go off the boil seeing a genuine world class player next to him. He's always been a one trick pony now it' schanged from stepovers to numerous shots. How long will Real fans and players put up with him taking shots from 50 years in the hope he gets a lucky one in the net?

He has no real style anymore, he does stupid flicks that rarely even come off, his main quality is in the air but Madrid wont play cross cross cross like Man Utd. He'll be lucky to net 15 for the season and probably will be a bigger flop than Robinho.

Sour grapes you sound like one of the many Manchester United's legends who have been giving their views on Sky Sports.
