This argument is always a struggle for me… you saying that a 36yo Ronaldo does more for us commercially than say a Foden or a KDB. I just don’t buy into it.

I’m not against the signing, as he’s going to score goals. I just don’t buy that he’s a bigger pull than Grealish or Foden or KDB, on a marketing side of things (…Peak Ronaldo is a different thing).

Cristiano Ronaldo social media followers - 575,600,000

Phil Foden social media followers - 10,600,000




Hmm yes, it's a close one but I think commercial partners are going to prefer it if Ronaldo pushes their brand. In fact, lets take the most commercial social media platform, Instagram, and have a look at some numbers.

Cristiano Ronaldo - 333,000,000

Every other Manchester City player combined and the club's official page - 102,000,000

He is a bigger superstar in the world then all 3 of them. Everyone knows Ronaldo.
 
Everyone is being seduced because he's been one of the best player in the world for such a long time, but he's not worth 25 million at 36 years old. Also he is just a stop gap, if we are so professional off the pitch how come we have got to this stage of the transfer without replacing our main centre forward, everybody including our owners know what Levy is like. Forwards should of been scouted long ago not trying desperately to sign a 36 year old in the dying embers of a transfer window.


Everything the Shiekh and Kaldoon have done throughout their ownership has been class and done with the upmost respect. We were let down somewhat with Kane, but that won't change our approach.

It's time to move on to another target and again City will handle it respectfully and professionally.

Oh and a guy who's scored 81 goals in 89 games a "stop gap" is a bit harsh.
 
People who I’ve tried talking to about this replies bitterly about City ruining the game. And they aren’t Man Utd fans.

We weren’t let down by Kane. He had no power. He tried. Levy just didn’t negotiate. Kane right now828174FA-EE45-4C30-9D10-43A1EA02AA5D.jpeg
