Yeah, but if you can have a forward who can actually bang in goals it isn't a bad move to add 2 players like that. 100mil for 33 year old Ronaldo is good business for Madrid, especially when they can go out and splash cash on legitimate replacements.Hazard is a massive massive downgrade on Ronaldo though. He’s never produced numbers anywhere near him.
Its basically Hazard and Icardi potentially greater than Ronaldo. I think its a smart move. They've just won 3 CL's in a row but need better (not saying either are better than Ronaldo), younger and more consistent attacking players for the league. Ronaldo went through quite a dry patch for the first half of the season, with only 4 league goals through the middle of January. Getting younger isn't a bad idea for them.
