I am not sure which part is hurting the Rags more... the fact that their star player of 12 years ago is joining us or that we are going to destroy them with our new lineup! Must be a double whammy! bwahahahahahahaha
 
Genuinely hope the people at the club are prepared to deal with the announcement from a marketing perspective. I thought PSG did a poor job with Messi, and it certainly can’t be less than that.
They better order enough shirts and O's too.

How can we market this. I mean welcome to Manchester was good but it's been done to death. Ronaldo is a global superstar so we need something out of this world
 
How does it ‘significantly weaken’ us? We were 2 slightly different team selections away from winning everything last season, won the league as comfortably as its possible to do and have added Grealish.

Personally I don’t mind if the feller turns up or doesn't although, on balance, I’d probably prefer not. Not because of an visceral hatred of the bloke but because it seems to be a knee jerk reaction and goes against the currently successful transfer policies we have. That’s to say the type of player, their temperament, being part of the collective and their age profile.
It smacks of desperation and short termism and is seemingly being driven by Pep and his desire for a CL to cement his legacy. City will be here long after Pep and we need to guard against becoming another United when he leaves.
Because he scored more goals (29) in a team that scored less (77) than the champions (89) and Lukaku (24).

Lukaku went for £100M, the performances this guy is putting in are still that of a £100M+ striker.

We don’t even have a striker, that’s why it significantly weakens us.

We won what we did because we were solid at the back last year, not because we were prolific up front. Plus our rivals have strengthened.
 
Ok... instead of saying shirt sales... say other commercial deals should cover his wages?
What deals? If he comes he's staying for 2 years and our sponsorship deals are all signed up for that period of time. He won't be staying any longer so what organisation is going to be influenced to pay a premium for a player image that won't be there?

If he generates so much money for clubs why are juve desperate to get him off the wage bill? Why did the rags sign record deals after he left?

Ronaldo generates sponsorship money for Ronaldo
