The Portuguese isÂ off to a great start in Italy — The Portuguese

Although there are many impressive attackers plying their trade in Europe right now, only few can compare with Juventus talisman Cristiano Ronaldo when it comes rating and contrasting their performances and overall influence in front of goal so far during the term.

The Portuguese has only spent about 3 months in the Serie A following his famous move from Real Madrid to Juventus this summer but he has quickly adapted to life in the Italian top flight, putting up a couple of scintillating performances and maintaining his reputation as one of the most prolific forwards in the football world at the moment.

In 12 Serie A appearances for Juventus so far this term, Ronaldo has found the back of the net an impressive 8 times and set up another 6 to help the Bianconeri to the first position on the table and he is absolutely ready to compete for both the Serie A and European Golden Boots during the term.
