Cristiano Ronaldo

[himalayan_blues]

He was an arrogant prick at 18!

I was much arrogant than him at 18 and i am nobody.
Things change people get matured

Fucking love it the Italians don't they?

Credit where it's due, they don't faff around with club PR (as much) like they do here.

 

[Cellarite]

We've been tracking planes for at least 10 years on here. Plus @Cellarite can be called on at anytime to get his arse to Manchester airport or Barton Aerodrome to confirm the players. He has an infinite supply of corned beef and HP sauce butties

Fucking HP? Heinz tomato ketchup and no mistake.

The Soreen and Tunnock’s Caramel Wafers are ready to go.

I want to give it both barrels to rag mates on this, but I am still holding back because I dont want to do it prematurely and to have it backfire on me (lose out on Kane, and lose out on CR too etc.), he might end up in Old Toilet or might stay at Juventus etc.

once its 99.99% done tho I will go berserk on them at work.:DDD

Don't say anything. Just jump into a meeting room and do one of his goal celebrations.

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

You get the sense this is bang on happening now. Too much going on for it not to be. It's surpassed anything to do with the Kane link in a matter of 15 hours.

surely theres no way kaldoon would go against pep, txiki and soriano, it would theave there jobs untenable if he overruled them all

I would be very very surprised…. Khaldoon and Pep are very close and Khaldoon certainly sees his role as one of supporting Pep - so I can see Khaldoon vetoing a signing - if he thought it wasn’t in the clubs best interests but I don’t see him imposing a player on a coach.

speaking of the transfer fee, anyone knows what on earth happened to yangel herrera? weren't we meant to sell him for 20~ million? was he loaned out? does he train with the club?

He is injury fracture tibia.

May be they said look mate we tried the whole Summer for your guy and it didn’t come off, so time for our guy…

anyway it is let’s hope it comes off.

Ronaldo to Manchester City: live updates and what we know so far - Football Italia

Cristiano Ronaldo's agent Jorge Mendes is expected to meet Juventus today to discuss the Portuguese striker's move to Manchester City. Follow the latest

football-italia.net

Fuck that. This isn't happening until James Richardson is sat at a cafe in Turin telling us it is.

 

[mscenterh750]

Once this deal is done, this thread needs adding to the classic threads.

 

[mattcity5]

I take it you didn't want Tevez then, and he came directly from the rags. Im not bothered either way but Ronaldo short term could win Pep(and us) the CL.

Major difference being it would take Ronaldo 2 or 3 matches to cover the amount of ground Tevez would cover in 1.

For me, he's too old to be a regular. And he wouldn't be happy being a squad player.

 

[Mr-Mertle]

But does Ronaldo like gravy on his chips? It needs answering.

 

[decmancity]

Hey Blues while I am for Ronaldo to City, due to the facts already discussed by many of the blues on the thread I was wondering on ONE VERY SPECIFIC Point!

why did Pep out of the blue come out and say he is walking at the end of 2023 season? Specially after Kane confirming he is staying bad timing? Or is it that May be he got wind of Ronaldo discussions and him, Soriano and Txiki are in the No camp.

And Khaldoon has over ruled them all and said we are on. Question to well informed ones amongst us, knowing that we always try to project a cohesive front to media from the club do you think there is a divide on this amongst our top brass?
And this is a Abu Dhabi signing from Sheikh Mansour and Khaldoon specially after PSG did Messi?

cheers ;)

Khaldoon has not overruled Pep here. Not a fucking chance.

Pep's comments came during a discussion at a business event, the context of which is probably about when is the right time to step down (CEO etc) and fresh management to come in and new challenges etc.

Pep was very honest, as he normally is. He will review in 2 years and see where we are.

 

[Stoned Rose]

Should've stayed behind to work on his calves if he wants to be top dog.

This happens the baby is getting a Ronaldo shirt. Don't give a shit what my Husband says

 

[Keeper!]

I have no doubt that two years of Ron will serve City well , even at 36. He can be a true CF unlike Messi. Something just does not sit right with the Harry situation. The fact he personally announced this change of heart is strange. Talk about 150 million for months and then more recently City offering 75 million with add ons, having paid 100 million for Jack is bizarre to say the least. As a previous club doctor I have my own suspicions which have been ridiculed by certain posters, but so be it. I guess we will never know. Maybe when Sir Harry writes his memoirs in 2 years when his ankles and knees are screwed, perhaps literally.

No idea of his medical history but from watching football for a long time, at 28 he looks very tired and very leggy.

Jorge Mendes got Wolves to pay 40 mil for Fabio Silva, the man is a miracle worker in the transfer window. He got otamendi a new club as well. I’m sure he will convince Juve, plus Ronaldo leaving training in hurry makes it seem like somethings happening
