Ronaldo & Real Get Stick From Media

Real Madrid's star-clad team may not be that invincible after all: it showed as the Merengues conceded a defeat to Racing Santander and two poor draws with AEK Athens and Villarreal - not the biggest clubs in Europe, by any standard.
Now criticism from the media rains on Real Madrid and even on Ronaldo, whose honeymoon at the Casa Blanca looks over. Pundits liked to point out how Ronaldo was estranged from the team's play.
Our colleagues from Futbolera even compared Ronaldo to bibendum-like Obelix - the overweight character from the Asterix comics.
Other comments said, in line with Del Bosque's opinion, that Ronaldo still needs to gel with Real. Recent negative results, club officials say, are not having any impact on morale at this stage.
