Lightning acceleration, possibly the key feature to his game.

Very good skill and technique, which he uses to score some spectacular games. However he does lack close control to dribble through packed defences.

An excellent finisher, very composed and generally can be relied upon to put the ball in the net.

The one thing he definitely can be relied upon to do is get injured regularly and for lengthy periods while he takes a golfing holiday in his back yard.

Hated by Madrid fans.

Nothing like as quick as he once was off the line. Still quick, just not jet-heeled like he once was.

Incredibly skilled.

One of the best finishers in the game.

Very rarely injured, one of the most durable players of the modern era.

Beloved by Madrid and Juventus fans.
