The Portuguese coach admitted that it was only when he arrived in Saudi Arabia that he realized Ronaldo’s real impact. “Nobody has any idea what this man is in the world. I didn’t either. Now I do.He is the flag of Portugal, have no doubt,” he said, remembering the crowds that gather just to see the number 7 pass by.
Jesus also commented on the player’s professionalism in training. According to him, CR7’s physical control is absolute: “When we train something more intense, he says ‘mister, for me it’s at the limit’. Today the GPS allows him to monitor everything, individually and collectively, and he knows exactly how far he can go.He rarely gets injured because he knows himself like no one else.”
The coach took the opportunity to rebut criticism of Saudi football and recall the recent dominance of Al Hilal, Al Nassr’s rival. “Here in Portugal they are devalued,but there are great players,great coaches,fabulous stadiums and pitches.There were 34 consecutive victories, not in luxembourg, but in Saudi Arabia and the Asian Champions League. Al hilal were undefeated champions, with more points and more goals. They won everything,” he said.
Jorge Jesus made a prediction about Ronaldo’s future: “I don’t know how long he will play, but I estimate it will be until he reaches a thousand goals. There are 50 or so left to go. He still has to play this year and the next one,” declared the coach.
