With the Portuguese international clearly displeased with life at the Bernabeu, Captain Casillas added salt to his wounds as he questioned his Ballon d’Or credentials.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629 returned for duty at Real Madrid’s training facilities in Valdebebas. Portuguese hitman has been under the dark clouds with his controversial statements about life in the Spanish capital.
Apart from contractual reasons, it has been reported that Ronaldo was displeased with the lack of support from Los Blancos teammates in the media, especially delegates of Spanish national team; something which eventually led to Andres Iniesta claiming UEFA
Best Player award.
In the developing situation at the Santiago Bernabeu, the former Manchester United attacker looks to be on a collision course with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Iker-Casillas-c16815. The Real Madrid captain openly questioned Ronaldo’s credentials for individual awards, especially the Ballon
d’Or.
Casillas stated that Los Blancos dressing room has more than one individual who have a great shout for the prestigious recognition. He admitted that Ronaldo has had a stellar season, but he has not been alone in their title success.
“I think that some players at Madrid deserve it for the great season we have had and for the titles have won," Casillas reflected.
"There are those who vote following different criteria. Cristiano has been playing at a very high level, but others may also deserve the award too.”
Casillas himself is a forerunner for the award, getting rave reviews from critics across the globe for his unerring service for La Roja. The assured custodian has led http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011 to back to back European titles with the 2010 FIFA World Cup sandwiched in between,
while also lifting three titles with Los Blancos.
The Real Madrid youth academy graduate modestly stated that he is humbled by the response he has received, adding that he has the support of Madridista for the claim.
“For me? There is much talk of that award and it makes me grateful to be on the lips of so many. People stop me on the street to tell me that I deserve it. This is very satisfying for me.”
Nevertheless, Casillas hailed http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ronaldo-c31734’s quiet return to Madrid, stating that it is a pleasure as a fan and a teammate to play alongside him.
“For Madrid, both as a player and a fan, it is a real pleasure to have http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-c9622. And for Cristiano, it is a luxury to wear the shirt of the best club in the world.”
