hope he stays hes quality and im a city fan
-
ronaldo stays
-
He's staying. :biggrin:
-
It seems as if Ronaldo wants to leave United for Madrid. What do you guys think about that?
I can see where he is coming from. Madrid are the biggest club in the world and he probably wants a new challenge. He has won all the individual accolades and major competitions with United, he probably wants a new challenge. Plus the lifestyle is far superior.
There was a strong rumour Madrid were offering 39m pounds, Ramos, Diarra and Robinho, good business me thinks for a player that is unsettled.
-
if United gets all those players, I think its a good deal. If I were SAF, I would consider making the trade.
-
i understand why he'd want out, and if he does, i think it would be very wise for united to cash out.
i think it'd be pretty interesting to see ruud's name thrown into the mix. sergio ramos would be :saywhat:
-
damn i didn't see this thread
btw i think this thread should be discussed in the Red Devils Thread so it can be more active instead of it being suck out into a separate thread
anyway i believe the titles for Man U are over unless they sign a top class winger
-
whos ronaldo?
which one really?
btw there both leaving
-
they've won quite a few titles without ronaldo and will probably win quite a few more when he leaves
i don't think there's any player that will be an immediate 1 for 1 replacement for ronaldo
-
i think robinho would have a very very good season replacing ronaldo. he is often the best player on the pitch for brazil, a team full of superstars. i see no reason he can't dominate in england.
-
i dnt think any one can replace ronaldo but then again we sed dat about beckham n fergy brought ronaldo in and built him up and i think maybe we cud den
-
To be honest, Ronaldo would be wise to stay at united. Premier League and Champions League? What more can you ask for than that? He's playing in the best club in the world at the moment and he would be foolish to leave.
-
:cheers: :cheers: :cheers: Ronaldo can go to Real,And so can ManUniteds trophies!! Go Ronaldo,Go!!
It'll be good if he goes.
-
and so can all the bandwagon jumpers :down:
and all the plastic fans
and all the glory hogs
and all the amateur soccer fans
and all the canadians

:cursing: I will support Man U whether Ronaldo stays or goes, but I will never, EVER support Real Madrid :cursing:
-
i would like to see ronaldo stay another season or 2 but hes the kind of player i would love to see play for a few different clubs in his career.
-
Cantona left, 2 years later, we achieve the treble.
Beckham left, and we still get trophies.
Be wise..
-
Already a thread. ;)
-
Besides this season hes been average. His best season is over I don't see why Real would need him anyway. Although lost of little kids and his stans will probably buy 20 Ronaldo tops each and Real will only get richer. :pimp: Thats what I call businessmen same reason they transfered Beckham in.
-
Besides this season hes been average.
:saywhat:
-
I say hes going because i read an article in which his mom said she wants him to play for real be4 she dies and they're offering 100M
-
If SAF is going to bench Ronaldo, he might as well sell him. He'll do the team no good with the wrong attitude.
He should take the best deal if he can't normally figure something out with Ronaldo. Ronaldo is either commited or he's out. That's the only way I see it. They need to have a meeting and sort out their differences.
If Ronaldo wants to leave after that, then Man U needs to take the best deal. From what it seems, Man U can get a crazy deal out of this. They can get around 40 million plus 1-2 quality players from Real Madrid.
-
I wouldn't mind him leaving, (but only if we get good players) and it's sad it has to end like this. Like Adi mentioned in another thread, SAF should let his players go nicely.
-
whos ronaldo?
wont make a difference if he leaves or stays. i just hope he doesn't go to madrid. quality team gay player
-
I'm a Real Madrid fan and I hope he doesn't come to Real. :down:
-
Thats what I've been hearing from lots of Real fans. Honestly I'm not hating or anything.
-
Yes, that's because Real Madrid don't need C.Ronaldo, especially not so badly to give away two of their best players and 40 million € with them. IMO, Calderon is starting to get all Perez like. No player in the world is worth that much money and there are far better deals with other players that could be made...

From The Sun
http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/article1274353.ece (http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/article1274353.ece)
THE man with Cristiano Ronaldo in dramatic pictures printed by The Sun compiled a detailed dossier on the Manchester United star which he handed to Real Madrid.
These are the photos that Madrid yesterday claimed could not possibly exist.
They show Ronaldo secretly meeting Real’s fitness coach Walter Di Salvo in Rome.
Di Salvo worked with Ronaldo for three seasons at Old Trafford, where they formed a strong bond.
Sources close to Ronaldo insisted at the time it was a chance meeting as the Portugal winger took a two-day break in the Italian capital.
Yet the full picture only now begins to emerge because we can reveal Di Salvo, who controversially left United last summer to join Madrid, gave the Spanish giants a FULL report on Ronaldo.
In it were all his observations of the United superstar during their time together at Old Trafford — precious information about his lifestyle, fitness, diet and personality.
Madrid technical director Miguel Angel Portugal, sporting director Pedja Mijatovic and board member Carlos Bucero asked Di Salvo to compile his detailed assessment on EVERY aspect of Ronaldo.
Di Salvo said Ronaldo is the “perfect professional” — a brilliant trainer who watches his diet and dedicates himself to his football.
It was also said that Ronaldo is the centre of attention in the dressing room but behaves with humility and great respect towards his team-mates.
In other words, he is no big-time Charlie and will not unsettle a dressing room with airs and graces.
Di Salvo left Old Trafford for Madrid in bitter circumstances.
He was once described by Alex Ferguson as the “secret weapon” behind United’s successful title campaign in 2006-07.
United’s assistant manager Carlos Queiroz felt betrayed when his close pal walked out and headed to Madrid. Queiroz even launched a furious attack on the fitness coach and has not spoken to him since.
The former Real Madrid coach has even more reason to be angry now because Ronaldo and Di Salvo stayed close friends.
There can be little doubt Ronaldo regards Di Salvo as a personal friend and confidante rather than as a representative of Real.
And there is little doubt the Italian told Ronaldo that the Bernabeu is the perfect place for the world’s best player to strut his stuff.
Ronaldo, 23, confided in friends that he views Di Salvo like an older brother and often chats to him about his fitness.
They also discuss how the player can stay sharp for both United and Portugal at crucial stages of the season.
Ronaldo even uses the Italian as a sounding board when he grumbles about life at Old Trafford.
Di Salvo provided the answers Real’s directors wanted to hear with president Ramon Calderon telling the board a few weeks ago: “We have done everything in our power to convince the lad to come. Now it’s up to Cristiano.”
As revealed in last week’s Sun, Calderon then admitted to a close pal: “We’ve tied things up with the kid. Everything’s done with Cristiano. The only thing that remains is for him to convince Manchester to sell.”
We also broke the story last week that the Spaniards expect Ronaldo to stage a strike if United do not sit down with Madrid to thrash out a deal.
Calderon has even confirmed SunSport’s exclusive on Saturday that Real want Ronaldo because he will be worth half a billion pounds in spin-off cash.
He said Real are willing to pay anything for Ronaldo — like the world record £47million fee they paid Juventus for Zinedine Zidane in 2001.
The Spanish giants are convinced he would generate huge income for the club. Calderon also insists Real cannot force United to sell — but he again sent out a message for Ronaldo to force his way out of Old Trafford.
The Real president added: “All we have are what the papers say and rumours the player seems to want to leave.
“It’s an impossible operation because Manchester doesn’t want to sell him. Nobody can buy something when the owner doesn’t want to sell. So today it’s impossible.
“But if United decide to sell, then we would have to ask them about the player and find an agreement on the price. There are many factors.
“The price is not important. We had a player like Zidane who came here for £47m and it was an magnificent investment. It’s not a question of money but a question of efficiency.”
Calderon added: “The case of Cristiano does not affect the image of the club abroad. I would be proud if big clubs made multi-million offers for Real Madrid players.
“In the end, if a player wants to leave — whatever the offer is — he will walk. The question is to give him guarantees of success.”
-
Fuck, the papers have to make things even worse. Even if he stays, he hates SAF, and it's a mess.
-
How will United win a game now?
-
we have other players.... :cursing:
-
With Tevez & Rooney; and the new transfers ofcourse. :biggrin:
Rooney will score this year. :thumbsup:
-
Rooney has never scored 20 premier league goals in a season. In fact, he hasn't ever scored 17! Can't rely on that kind of striker to win.
-
I'd like it if he left Man U to play for Madrid. He wouldn't stand a chance against most defenders in the Spanish league.

i would like this too....he cant spend all his career to MU
-
the guy is clearly going to leave.
why would he stay? Fergie has shown yet again what a petulant prick he can be and the Glazers have been quoted as saying they'd let him rot before selling him.
I wouldn't stay with shit like being said, plus there's no challenge any more. He's won all he can really with United.
On to Real Madrid..
-
fuck that. we don't want gay fags at quality classic teams. there has never been a gay prostitute like c.ronaldo at madrid. we only have and had quality players like the real ronaldo, zidane, carlos, robinho. fuck that fuck him.

you are a complete idiot.
so ronaldo is a gay fag? he's a homosexual cigarette?
he's a gay gay man? wtf lol. 1 gay word cancels the other out, so he's not gay? come on make your mind up, anybody would think YOU were confused...
I'm messing but for real, you're opinion is retarded. He IS one of the best players on the planet no question and you wouldn't want him playing for you? that's absurd.

BASEL, Switzerland (AP) - Cristiano Ronaldo will undergo surgery on his right foot and says the chances are "great" that he will leave Manchester United for Real Madrid next season.
"I will talk with Manchester and we will try to reach a deal," the Portugal winger said. "The possibilities to go to Madrid are great, but it doesn't depend on me."
After Portugal's 3-2 loss to Germany in the quarterfinals of the European Championship, Ronaldo said he will "need surgery" for "a small problem on his (right) foot."
Let's hope he's for real.....HALA MADRID! Let's see how United cope with losing thier most influencial player :banana:
-
I hope that he isn't going to nowhere, but I'm sure that he wants new challenges :) He have won championship in England so why not try to win it in Spain?

Calderon: We won't pay £80million for Ronaldo
Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon has dismissed suggestions the Spanish champions would be willing to spend £80million on Cristiano Ronaldo.
Speculation has been rife that Madrid would smash their own world-record transfer fee - set when they splashed £46million on Zinedine Zidane in 2001 - by offering Manchester United in the region of 100 million euros for Ronaldo if the Red Devils decided to cash in on their prize asset.
However, speaking just days after Madrid coach Bernd Schuster urged the club to 'pay what is necessary' to take Ronaldo to the Bernabeu, Calderon insists they will not break the bank for any player.
When asked about Ronaldo, Calderon said in remarks reported by Marca: 'There is no 'Cristiano Ronaldo case' because Manchester (United) do not want to sell.
'In any case, Real Madrid will never pay 100 million euros for anybody.'
United, who recently reported the Primera Liga champions to FIFA over what they considered to be attempts to unsettle the player, have stated that the Portugal international is not for sale.

Very good decision Madrid. He's not even worth that kind of money.

Tevez and Rooney are not out-and-out strikers tho...
the amount of times i see Rooney miss easy 1-on-1's in crazy for a "top-class" striker. It will be a blow for Utd to lose Ronaldo even though hes a bit overrated hes still excellent and gets tons of goals.. i dont think Madrids style of play will suit him

Ron: I WILL come back
Cristiano Ronaldo has phoned Manchester United to say 'I’ll be back'. SunSport can reveal that the Portuguese star dramatically made contact with Old Trafford for the first time in a month. Ronaldo, 23, has given United fans the news they most wanted by informing the club he would be going straight on holiday and would return, as instructed, for pre-season training. His call makes it clear Ronaldo does not envisage any move to Real Madrid in the coming weeks. The player was told he must be back at United three weeks from the day Portugal’s interest in Euro 2008 ended – July 10 – and he has said he will be there.
