Cristiano Ronaldo helped Karim Benzema on and off the pitch while at Real Madrid, but Los Blancos current talisman knew he could do more when his former team-mate departed.Ronaldo is Madrids all-time leading goalscorer, having netted 450 times in all competitions between 2009 and 2018, when he joined Juventus.Benzema has since Malik Jackson Jersey picked up the mantle, however, scoring a remarkable 131 goals in the past four seasons. While Ronaldos Manchester United future is in doubt, his old strike partner is thriving.Of players in Europes top five leagues last term, only Robert Lewandowski (50) Tommy McDonald Jersey who will go up against Benzema in LaLiga after his switch from Bayern Munich to Barcelona scored more goals in all competitions than the France forward, who averaged a goal every 88 minutes.Asked ahead of the Super Cup clash with Eintracht Frankfurt whether Ronaldos exit had directly benefited his own form, Benzema told a news conference: Its true Ive scored more goals but when Cristiano was here we had a different style, I provided more a sists and he helped me on and off the pitch.I knew I could do more at the time and when he left it was the time to change my game and ambitions, Im doing that at the moment.Benzemas form has seen him emerge as a favourite to win this years Ballon dOr, a bid only strengthened by Madrids succe s in LaLiga and the Champions League Avonte Maddox Jersey last campaign.But the striker is simply focused on histeams exploits, adding: Im not like that in terms of whether Im the best or not, I always give my all for this club, the best club in the world.I have to give more and more every year, its true I had a very good season, but other people can comment on if Im the best in Jason Kelce Jersey the world. Im focused on helping my team in matches, thats all I can say.Im not thinking about the Ballon dOr , theres trophies to win every year, thats very important. I always stre s the importance of succe s for the team that leads to individual succe s.For Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti, there is little doubt that he has the best forward in world football at his disposal.Asked if Madrid, Wes Hopkins Jersey who wanted to sign Kylian Mbappe before Benzemas compatriot signed a new deal with Paris Saint-Germain, needed to bring in a back-up striker before the transfer window closes, Ancelotti replied: We have strikers, plenty of them. Benzema, Mariano Diaz , Eden Hazard, Rodrygo, Vinicius Junior , have I forgotten any?When youre mi sing the best striker in the world, there are alternatives, but its impo sible to replace Benzema, no player in the world can replace Karim. If anything happens, we will adapt.
