Football fans often say that Cristiano Ronaldo is nothing without Karim Benzema, or that he owes Karim Benzema for his successful career, and the French striker's career was slowed down because of Cristiano Ronaldo.

Cristiano Ronaldo before joining Real Madrid (Karim Benzema). He has 112 goals and 68 assists to his name with 297 appearances for Manchester United. That is 180 goals and assists.

When he left Real Madrid (Karim Benzema) for Juventus, the five-time Ballon d'Or award winner had 101 goals and 22 assists for the Old Ladies of Italy. That is 132 goals plus assists in 134 appearances.

Cristiano Ronaldo of the Portugal National Team has 115 goals in 186 appearances. This season with Manchester United, the 37-year-old attacker has 24 goals and 3 assists to his name, making a total number of 352 goals scored by the Portuguese star without Karim Benzema.

Ronaldo has 450 goals with Real Madrid, of which only 32 were assisted by Karim Benzema, so the Manchester United player has 352 goals without playing with Benzema and 418 goals at Real Madrid without Karim's assists.

Opinion: Share your thoughts about these points and comment if you believe the notion that Cristiano Ronaldo should be grateful to Karim Benzema is an overstatement.
