The Portuguese star may be earning headlines for his injury lay-off at the moment, but he has played in enough games this season to recognise that he feels comfortable in la Primera Division.
Though many stars take time to settle in at new clubs, Ronaldo started his Madrid career in style and even saw the media stating that he is so good the team are already relying on him.

"Football is very similar everywhere. There are fewer differences nowadays between the styles in each country," he was quoted as saying by the club's official website.
