The experience Ronaldo brings to this side is enormous as he has won the UCL five times in his career and the Juventus board is convinced that Ronaldo can lead Juventus to European glory.
The beginning of Ronaldo's Juventus chapter may have been shaky and rough as it took him four games (320 minutes) to finally find the back of the net. He ended his rut when he struck twice in a 2-1 win over Sassuolo after drawing blanks against Chievo, Lazio and Parma. Ronaldo's UCL debut for Juventus against Valencia also did not go as planned as he was sent off around the half an hour mark with a straight red card.

Ronaldo endured a tough start to life in Turin but with his never-give-up attitude he has changed his fortunes netting 8 times and setting up 5 goals in Serie A in just 12 games. Ronaldo also struck his first UCL goal for Juventus against Manchester United which they eventually lost 2-1.
Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the reasons for Juventus' record breaking start to the Serie A game as they have garnered 34 points out of 36 in just 12 games and Juventus will like to use Ronaldo's experience and brilliance to bring the UCL to Turin.
