Cristiano Ronaldo

[Musampa 209]

I’d definitely take him for a year or two

Just the 101 goals in 133 games then.

Haha. I think the only thing anyone can hold against him is that he's a Cockwomble but he's neither lazy or contributes zero.

This reeks of someone who hasn’t watched him play in his Juve years. Sure, he scores his share of penalties and wide open tap ins.. but his ability to create a shot for himself or let alone do something of quality in the face of goal has completely dropped off the face of the earth. 8 years ago I’d be all over this, now.. absolutely not.

I find we often have too many people who have ability to create a shot or do something in front of goal except put the bastard away.

I don't care if he lives in the 6yrd box. He will take chances we squander every week and could drag us to trophies.

Goals are goals, and we have the most creative team in the world. We can give him all the penalties and tap ins he wants. We need a finisher, and he can finish with the best of them.

He’d get 30 a season and the transfer would pay for itself.

I don’t think he’s a lock for 30 like you think he is. He’s incredibly wasteful at this point in his career and I think he would only be a slightly better, albeit more expensive version of Jesus or Torres up front. Kane’s age was already a worry, but Ronaldo for 50M+? Come on.

He's hit at least 30 goals every season since 2008/9, barring his first season at Juve when he only managed a paltry 28

I don't think he'd be the right fit for us but attacking his goalscoring record seems like a fool's errand to me

 

[Tugay One Cup]

I'd rather nail my bollocks to a horse and give it's arse a slap.

 

[Blue Bogey]

I would hate his wank goal celebration, makes him look a right arrogant twat.

If just one player doesn’t press then we don’t have a press and can’t win the ball back high up the pitch which means that our high line has to collapse back into defensive mode the moment the ball is lost and then build out right from the back again and again.

Sure you’d have a player stood goal hanging, with our team effectively reduced to 10 in every defensive phase, but I kinda like our brand of football with a full team of 11 working as a cohesive unit.
