Cristiano Ronaldo

[mccity]

Ah, but did he......? ;-)

Alright I'll let you off.

Ronaldo and his agent looking for a last payday , no thanks ,if we want to sell shirts then Messi was the option not the prancing pony.

i so get this

but just to upset the them over the road with a bigger welcome to manchester poster that would be priceless

ake is better than scrap ? even if we loaned both out we would get a fee

We shouldn't sell Aké at all. And who is taking Mendy, even on loan? and if Mendy goes we'll need a LB. Then we need to sell another player to sign Ronaldo.

 

[Clevers]

Only want Haaland if he signs a 15 year contract. Am I doing this right

With no release clause.

If this was true in Mendy’s case he wouldn’t have been at club for last couple of seasons.

What strikes me, the poll at the top is significantly higher thank the Kane one. Speaks volumes really

To be honest, Ronaldo reminds me of the Christian Bale character in American Psycho (the narcissism and the preening, not the serial killing side).
Anyway, if he came to us and helps us win the CL then, obviously, I'd be happy.
It's just that it would be all about him, because it always is. Call me a stupid romantic if you want but for me being a football fan is about cheering on (and feeling part of) a team that is a proper collective, of the feeling of a shared desire. Of going through the ups and downs, the near misses etc etc. I want it to be a journey that we all share/experience, both club/players and fans alike. That was what hooked me into being a football fan to begin with.
For me Ronaldo would never feel part of that "collective."
As I said at the beginning, if he comes to us and helps us win the CL then great. However, if we did it without him it would be even better...it would be "stupendous!" ;-)

The first bit of your post gave me a nightmarish vision of Ronaldo stood in the showers doorway at City and saying to Bernard Silva who is showering with Mendy "don't just look at it.. eat it"

Bad bad imagination I know

 

[Withnail]

Not a pep player, incredibly self interested and the thought of him putting on a shirt and having to celebrate him score a goal turns the old stomach.

In short fuck Ronaldo

I am not convinced Pep would want Ronaldo, as you say he is selfish and not really a team player. Unlike Kane does Ronaldo really want to play for City, I think he sees this possible move as one last chance for a big pay day.

Torres is just a kid, give him a break!

as I said, the jury is still out.

 

[Centurions]

Hargreaves!

Hargreaves never played for us bud.

 

[Theengelbert]

What a move for Ronaldo it would be too.. juve on the decline, this is a chance to join arguably the most dangerous attacking team in terms of midfield in world football score about 50 goals this season. He could win absolutely everything at city this season and the ballon d’or

 

[better dead than red]

Hargreaves never played for us bud.

One appearance

Thought I'd take a gander at this thread. It's as expected.

Most are just winging it, or on the beak

Played? he feckin scored.

Worst quality of all time but not a bad strike.

And don’t forget a lot of posters voted no even tho they want Ronaldo. Karma and all that stuff ;)

I guess this was a fever dream?

 

[Kippax1973]

I would be seriously pissed of if we were offering around 125 mil fer kane but did not stump up approx 20 mil plus wages for Ronaldo and we don't do it,,,, its fucking madness if we don't

One appearance

He pulled the shirt on (which is probably how he got injured again) and walked on to the pitch but he never actually played for us...

 

[kun]

One appearance

Four appearances. One goal.

He pulled the shirt on (which is probably how he got injured again) and walked on to the pitch but he never actually played for us...

He also came on as a sub against Utd in the FA Cup in 2012
