The Real Madrid midfielder spoke after Brazil's friendly with Panama and admitted Los Blancos are weaker without Cristiano Ronaldo: "He's the best in the world".
Casemiro attended reporters after Brazil's 1-1 friendly draw with Panama in Porto and spoke about life without Cristiano Ronaldo at Real Madrid. In the Mixed Zone, Casemiro admitted that Madrid have been weaker since Cristiano left to join Juventus but later toned down his comments, poiting out that the Portuguese forward is no longer a Real Madrid player...
Cristiano is "the best player in the world" - Casemiro
"Cristiano Ronaldo? Of course we miss him - as any team would, he's the best player in the world. It was a real pleasure playing alongside him but now he's not a Real Madrid player", Casemiro told reporters.
The Brazilian midfielder also spoke about Zidane's return to the Bernabéu: "We already knew his philosophy and working methods. He's a club icon - as a player and as a coach. Everyone respects him and he's come back to do the best he possibly can", he ended.

Casemiro has always stood up for Cristiano after he left when many of the players started talking not so pleasing things. Casemiro deserves a lot of respect for not changing his tongue in a matter of weeks

Now that Zidane was back, Madrid players are freely admitting that they miss Ronaldo. Before they were all speculating the possibility of being able to play as a team without him... What a turn of events

After Ronaldo left Real Madrid. Bale : We are more of a team without Ronaldo. Isco : We are better without Ronaldo Benzema: I'm ready to take care of Ronaldo's absence. Carvajal : Raul is the best player in Real Madrid history. Sergio Ramos : Ronaldo is not missed.

All the Madrid players miss Ronaldo, he is the best there he always score goals for them, he has broken records and has won trophies for them, but it was all Perez fault he was given opportunity to chose to sell either bale or Ronaldo, he chose Ronaldo and here are the consequences, besides Ronaldo wanted a new challenge he has been at Madrid for almost 9/10 years....he gave all he could to make the club one of the biggest, glad casmeiro could actually say he misses Ronaldo...but they already got one of the best manager zidane, and he might sign world class players but none of them cannot replace Ronaldo and what he has done for Madrid, good luck to Madrid and casmeiro. ~ From A Barca Fan

Get used to missing him... CR7 alwats moves forward- doesn't go back to old clubs... May be he's destined for Bayern, Ajax, Galataxary or even Celtic... We Man United fans still miss him more since the Day Perez snatched him from The Old Trafford![Crylaugh][Crylaugh]

It took a lot of spanking from different teams for them to realize that. Don't ever insult the GOAT. He contributed with loads of goals and assists. They said he was selfish but still he gave the most assist in the team time and time again. He brought goals and then he brought great motivation and financial benefits. Scoring over 50% of the teams goals each ucl season. I really don't know how you can sell a player of that quality for just 100 million. Ronaldo is irreplaceable and what real Madrid now miss is their main man. They still have the quality of the delivery with modric and kroos but lack the finisher.
