No. I mean the one that throws his hands up when things don't go his way; the gesticulating at other players while ignoring errors of his own, and the media circus that surrounds him. I hope that answers your question. In the future, perhaps you would consider asking what someone means in a more polite way.

Ronaldo has a 100% winning mentality - he demands perfection from himself and the others around him - yes that can come across a bit cnutish but don't let that fool you... If you listen to interviews from players who have played with him and people who actually know him personally you will find that all say the same thing - the guy off the pitch is quiet, polite and humble - but as soon as he crosses that white line though he's a winner.

The media circus thing isn't his doing - it's the media

I know his rag connection will alienate a lot of blues but the way I look at it he USED the rags to get his dream move to Madrid - nothing more...

I'm not saying I 100% want him at City - I'm kind of on the fence, but to not want him because of his winning attitude and mentality is nuts

Agree.

The fact this would boil the piss dry over at old trafford is a bonus.

I dont like the guy but I have no doubt he would make us a better side.
 
Isn't he 36 now?
He didn't want to know us when he was 26 or 30 or 33.
No way I'd have this bighead anywhere near our club.
He is a magical player, no doubts about it but him wanting us now(allegedly) is just his last chance of a golden ticket.
Shirt sales would go through the roof but the thought of our badge on his chest knocks me sick.

Only play him when we use the new third kit then.

Sadly for Juve he was brought to deliver the Champions league and they and him have failed miserably in doing that.

Also last season, despite scoring his goals , Juve were miles off retaining the title.

Also talk of a 25m fee is just the start, add outrageous wages and agent fee, you probably would not have much change out of 100m for one season, utter madness.

I agree here. The one thing that stands out about us is we lack that somewhat arrogance and self-assurance on the field. The only players I'd say have that are KDB and maybe Dias. A superstar like Ronaldo, while not being the player he was, can inject that mentality into the squad that we've lack in CL games over the years.
