Cristiano Ronaldo
Only had Rafael Benítez as coach of Real Madrid for half a season. The Spanish technical director did not stay in the Santiago Bernabéu bench due to his irregular campaign: third in La Liga and out of the Copa del Rey.
From the beginning, the Spanish press reported a bad relationship between Cristiano Ronaldo and Rafael Benítez. The coach initially did not want to say that 'CR7' was the best player in the world, although under pressure from the media, he corrected himself. However, 'El Confidencial' has revealed what the Portuguese said after 'Rafa's' departure.

“We've wasted a lot of time with this,” is what Cristiano Ronaldo is said to have told his entourage according to the aforementioned media outlet. Rafael Benítez also had a bad relationship with his squad. Proof of this was the celebration of the second goal against Valencia last week. Everyone embraced and celebrated, but left the coach aside.
On the other hand, Cristiano Ronaldo was included today by UEFA in the 2015 ideal eleven. The list includes other figures such as Lionel Messi, Sergio Ramos, James Rodríguez and Neymar.
