Messi's pressure, Sarri's impact... 4 reasons why Ronaldo could help Juve win CL

It's another season and a new chapter in the career of arguably the greatest player Cristiano Ronaldo in UCL history.

We all know the torrid time Real Madrid have been having in the European tournament since the attacker left the Santiago Bernabeu. 

Juve on their part did not mince words when they stated the reason why they lured Ronaldo to the Old Lady, as they want him to work his magic and inspire them to UCL success, the way he did at Real.

Here, we highlight four reasons why the Portuguese could go all the way and get the job done for the Bianconeri.

1. Determination to secure his legacy

We all know that Ronaldo does not shy away from his responsibilities, and Juve told the whole world why he was brought in to lead them to UCL success. 

It would be considered a failure on all parties involved if, in the long run, this dream is not achieved.

Most importantly, it would be a stain on CR7's glistering and impressive career. 

We know that when Ronaldo puts his heart to something, there is no stopping him. 

2. Messi's recent FIFA The Best award triumph

It is no secret that there is an ongoing rivalry between the two most brilliant players of this era - Ronaldo and Messi. 

Until last month, both of them were tied on five Ballon d'Or and FIFA the Best Awards apiece. 

However, with Messi taking home an extra FIFA The Best award recently and going one ahead of his rival, Ronaldo will definitely want to show the world that he deserves another top individual accolade too.

Ronaldo knows that his claim on another award would come down to success on the European front. And he will want to do everything in his power to make sure he gets it.

3. Sarri's influence

The Bianconeri are known for their impenetrable defence which, to some extent, is down to the style of their former manager Massimiliano Allegri. 

That had an impact on the performances of Ronaldo last season; as we all know, he thrives better in an attack-minded team.

With the arrival of Maurizio Sarri and his attacking-minded tactics, Ronaldo will likely enjoy a more prolific campaign in front of goal this season than the previous one, especially in his favorite Champions League.

4. Juve have a better squad this time

The Bianconeri have added even more power to their ranks with a couple of decent transactions in the transfer market this summer.

The Old Lady made their backline stronger with the signing of De Ligt from Ajax. 

The likes of Buffon, Higuain, and Bonucci have all returned, while players like Danilo and Pellegrini have also switched to the Allianz Stadium to further strengthen the team.

Although Ronaldo will take the lead, the support of these players will make the job easier.
