Ronaldo at Juventus – A Tactical Profile

Cristiano Ronaldo has completed a transfer to Juventus, for a fee reportedly in excess of 100 million Euros, including additional fees for youth clubs he supports. The fee is the largest ever paid for a player over 30 years old, and the largest ever paid by an Italian club. Ronaldo is still a world class player, but he joins a squad bristling with others: currently, Juventus can boast World Cup finalist Mario Mandzukic, Paulo Dybala and Gonzalo Higuain, wingers Federico Bernardeschi, Juan Cuadrado and Douglas Costa, and prospects like Marko Pjaca and Moise Kean. So where will Juventus’ new big money signing fit?

Who Is Better? Modric or Winks? (Infographic)

Young (21) Harry Winks has had an amazing few months. Not only is he now starting more regularly for Spurs but he also made his England debut. Can it get better? After last night’s thumping of Real Madrid, Tottenham have everyone talking. Just how good are they? And is Winks part of the reason they are playing so well?

Ex-Spurs player Luka Modric split opinions among Spurs fans which begs another question; Is Winks better than Modric?

According to Oulalal it would seem he is:

“Winks has bettered Modric for pass completion (89.2% to 88.8%). On a per game basis, the 21-year-old has also made more interceptions (2 to 1), more blocks (0.5 to 0) more clearances (1 to 0.3) and more successful dribbles (2 to 1.3).”
