Cristiano Ronaldo has now scored a grand total of zero goals after two games since his move to Juventus from Real Madrid
The Portuguese striker started and finished both games, first against Chievo and then Lazio. While Juventus won both games, the Euro 2016 champion has yet to make the net bulge for the Old Lady in a competitive fixture.
His manager, Massimo Allegri is asking for people to be patient with the 5 time Ballon d’Or winner. “Italian football is completely different to Spanish football. Ronaldo understands that and he is settling in very well. He’s a very humble guy and I’m very pleased with the impact he has made so far.” he said

Allegri also added that fans will need to give the club some time to get into its groove after the first two wins were seen as unconvincing.
He said of the game, “It was a different game to Verona
“At first, we played in a hurry. There was a danger of getting carried away with the enthusiasm of Cristiano Ronaldo’s first home match. We had to be patient.
“But I’m happy with how the players did. It was an important match, the first match against a direct rival.
“We need to work and improve. But we have Cancelo, who is a new player, Bonucci returned after a year, Ronaldo, a new player, that’s 30 per cent of the team. It takes time.”
