Cristiano Ronaldo

[manimanc]

No. We’ve had plenty of players cross over the divide, some more successfully than others.

Ronaldo is an arrogant, egotistical, self obsessed prick. He’s everything that United resemble, and I don’t want our club associated with that.

Our latest documentary is called Together, which I believe embodies the NDA of this squad. Ronaldo is all about himself.

Nailed it mate. Agree with everything you said. I'd put Messi in that bracket too, as much as would loved him here it's to much of a circus.
I wouldn't have Ronaldo here even in his prime.

Since United is your club, you should ask yourself that.

Apologies for the tardiness, I missed this one earlier.

What kind of circus happened in Italy? I’m genuinely curious. His disruption is far less than Messi’s at clubs. He does his job and doesn’t make many demands. Him being arrogant and self-centered is a personality trait. When did it affect clubs? Even his agent didn’t cause trouble on his behalf.

Yeah, I can't recall a single incident that reported FakeRon kickin' off at one of his clubs. Folk might not like personality, and I detested him at The Swamp, but a goal's a goal!

Ronaldo and Messi's teams do well and you don't hear too much complaining from their other players. I would expect that they are both pretty decent team mates, considering their place in the history of the sport.

I've never met the Geezer, so couldn't say. I judge everyone on how they treat me to be honest. I've had warnings about people I've subsequently met & some have been spot on, some over egged & others waaaaaay off the mark. To be honest, the same has happened to me.

Several years ago, I was starting a new risky venture & I knew a former employee would be ideal for a crucial position. However, the dude had stabbed me in the back to create an opportunity for himself previously, & even though it all turned to shit for him, I swallowed my pride & asked him to be part of this new venture.

We were never gonna be best buddies, but on a professional level we made it work & the venture proved highly successful. I'd never put him in a position where I had to trust him, because if he stiffed me once, he could do it again, but I managed to rise above my personal feelings for the fella to concentrate on the bigger picture.

For all Blues with similar feelings about Ronaldo, we need goals & someone who can score penalties! Couldn't you put your dislike for him to one side for Manchester City's sake?

I believe that my comments are putting Manchester City first.

The one thing we have and alway will have you is the ability to laugh at ourselves. That’s one of the things I truly love about supporting City.

What you’re talking about is a seasons success on the field, whilst I’m taking about protecting our identity

"I am a slave", sounds like kicking off to me Dave.

I honestly don't get how & why Ronaldo would affect our identity. I'm struggling to recall any grief he's caused at the clubs he's been at.

I've never met him, so I don't know what his personality is like. I've seen Tevez & Yaya cause way more grief at City than I've ever heard from Ronaldo, but we dealt with it & moved on to bigger & better things..... Unless I'm missing something? \0/

He never actually said that

Ronaldo goal celebration or Sane back tattoo? Sane back tattoo or Ronaldo goal celebration? Not sure which is worse.
