Yuri Berchiche does not believe that Cristiano Ronaldo's absence due to injury will be an advantage to Real Sociedad at all.
He told Marca, "Not coming up against Ronaldo has its good and bad sides,
"Without him they are stronger when defending as a block and they leave less space.
"With Ronaldo, Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale, they stay more up the field, adding very little to Real Madrid."
