Cristiano Ronaldo

How do you work that out, we've added Grealish lost nobody. ? In what possible way is that worse.Window also still open

Lost Aguero and potentially a left back while the whole squad has gotten older

100%
Pep never wanted him

It was a very strange press conference, and I‘ve only ever seen him like that once before, that was at BM a few weeks before he announced he was leaving.

 

[Big Dave Watson]

Lol.

Didnt catch Peps press confetence but did he say "I am so so happy with what we have"?

I suspect the next set of accounts are going to be pretty grim. We're clearly working within some pretty tight constraints.

If we can't afford €30m for Ronaldo then what the fuck was all this nonsense about Kane all summer?

 

[Citizen of Legoland]

I’m not that sad that he didn’t come it is what it is. But I jist think we handled this whole transfer window piss poor.

Based on what? Twitter rumours mainly. All I've seen all summer is people saying "this guy's legit", "he's tier 1" etc. Fucking laughable from so many.

Who ACTUALLY said we were in for him anyway? I mean - when did City say we were interested?

Also with Kane - wasn't it Levy's fault he didn't move. Nothing do do with how we are run.

Surely we can't actually work mind control on people.

Why the hell would CR have ever come to us - nonsense press talk surely probably started by the Rags PR department!

Let him go there, more wages, dressing room unrest and all that crap. it will be good viewing.

Never. It was said we were offered him and we considered a deal but didn’t go through with it.

The club was reluctant from the beginning, they just thought it was too big of an opportunity to miss without a try. As soon as they saw a bidding war with the crazy United board, they pulled out.

We always pull out of Bidding Wars (not sure why) so I can see this being a main reason

We went for Messi and he didn't come here. I can get that, I don't think he really wanted to leave them.

We went for Kane and he didn't come here. I can get that we didn't want to pay £150m.

We looked at Lukaku but he didn't come here. We didn't want to pay nearly £100m for him, which I get.

We went for Ronaldo and he didn't come here. I can't understand why £30m is seen as such a 'risk' for the greatest player around.

The club are trying to sign a top class striker as we clearly need one. However, to miss out on all 3 is not good. We NEED a striker, more so than any other position.

I genuinely don't understand why we negotiate with teams for the top, top players if we're not prepared to tip up.

I rate Grealish, but I'd rather we'd have spent £100m on a striker than another midfielder.

If United get Ronaldo, on top of Varane and Sancho then will improve a good few points.

I can only hope the club are preparing a bid for a striker now, surely...?

Top 4 this season will be tough without a recognised goal scorer

You miss understand me,, players of a level that we need I've no problem with them,, but the higher end players,, players that really would fire us forward, as in a world force in marketability, they seem to fail time and time again, if we can't sign this type of player, fine just admit it, again I've no problem with that either

You’ve confused me now, that’s for sure!

This post seems like you don’t think our C-Level staff are embarrassing, your previous post said you did lol

Looking at our commercial revenues, I’d say we’re doing more than alright worldwide marketability.

When you say this type of player, there’s only 2 of them………
