A staggering 32.2 per cent of Real Madrid fans would drop three-time Ballon d'Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo, according to a poll in Spanish newspaper AS.
On
a weekend that saw Real Madrid lose their grasp on top spot in La Liga
for the first time time since November, fans of the Spanish giants have
had their say on the team's current predicament.
Supporters
were first posed a question regarding formation, and an incredible 92.1
per cent of fans called for Carlo Ancelotti to ditch his current
tactics and revert to a 4-4-2 formation.
Cristiano Ronaldo would be dropped by 32.2 per cent of Real Madrid fans, according to a poll in AS
Gareth Bale is the least popular of Madrid's front three and nearly half the fans asked would bench him
Karim Benzema claims he is the 'first one to arrive and the last to leave' the Real Madrid training ground
That
would mean one of Madrid's impressive front three, the so-called 'BBC'
of Gareth Bale, Karim Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo, would need to make
way.
In
the poll, Bale, who has been jeered on a couple of occasions despite
his impressive start in the Spanish capital, was top of the pile, while
Ronaldo was second.
Benzema,
therefore, has proven to be the most popular member of Madrid's
frontline; a stat which will surprise many given Ronaldo's previous
success at the club.
Bale picked up a worrying 46.1 per cent of the votes, while Ronaldo would be dropped by 32.2 per cent of supporters.
