#2 Ronaldo has started slowly
Signed with the expectations that he would grant the Bianconeri an extra edge as they aim for the UEFA Champions League this season, the attacker's performances in the European tournament so far during the term is not what he would have hoped for.
Ronaldo has had a slow start to his Champions League campaign this season, failing to impress in his European debut with Juventus when they faced Valencia for their opening fixture as well as earning a red card for his conduct during the game which kept him out of action for one game.
The Portuguese has only managed 1 goal and 2 assists in Europe this term, giving Lionel Messi the opportunity to move ahead with 6 efforts and that could have given the Argentine a huge boost in the Golden Shoe race as games are expected to get tougher during the knockout stages.
