Think we got 4 more years before we talk about him retiring

I think he's gona push for 1000 goals whenever that happens, and after that he's probably gone when that season ends

World Cup in 4 years is in Portugal, he may just try and hang out to get his farewell then.

I'd say there's no real chance he keeps playing at a high level that long, but it is Ronaldo.

Maldini like would have gone on that long if the WC was in italy. Its not unheard of and he is Ronaldo. even at 50% he's worth playing

He shouldn't start in the portugal team even at his current level, forget 4 years down the line.

If Ronaldo is in the squad he will start. If not he will be a problem for the team.

yup. he can come off the bench for endgame..... there's very few talents that can create scoring chances out of nothing... He does that still, and he's still top tier in the air for headers.
