Cristiano Ronaldo

[BlueDejong]

€15m a year is just shy of £250k a week if anyone's wondering. If he's genuinely willing to take that big a pay cut to join us then he must really want it, though the one thing nobody can doubt is his commitment.

wow big pay cut

people doubting whether we should be going for him should ask themselves a question or two

Do we need someone who will regularly put the ball in the net? - Yes we do and Ronaldo is better than nearly anyone else at this.

Is he better than Harry Kane? - yes he is even now at his age he is far superior in every way as a player.

Whether it actually happens is another discussion and I think the stumbling block will be money...we dont seem to want to pay him...Juve want money ....His wages too could be an issue to all of this.....

Then again there is always the similar prospect s to what we were offering Messi......shares in CFG, extended playing career in America after he finishes with us etc etc

We need someone to stick the ball in the net week in week out - no doubt he would do that

Wages will defo have to be negotiated....but if we mess this up down to not wanting to pay Juve £25m when he has 1 year left of a contract (so juve are entitled to ask for such a fee)

Then we will have fucked up in my opinion

That’s probably about the same as we would have dished out for Kane.

what how much ?...really lol

Yea Everton are demanding 100 mil for Richarlison I can't believe that.

Also I thought he was a united fan too. He's gonna be poking those negative vibes out. Sky will do the same because it gets people making bets on skybet.

Listen to the Italian journalists I say and switch sky off

Might go to Cibbo for lunch and see if the waiters piss on my pasta :-)

We are going to end up with bloody Richarlison for 100 mill, nothing is straight forward with us, it's always been a rollercoaster :)

Some on here would sell their soles for a bit of success.
I've always felt this club had values and a direction that kept them.

This guy was despised for years by many on here. I've no doubt people will be trawling back to these posts were supporters of this move have now abandoned any principles. You will be found! LOL...
I've said previously that i don't doubt his talent and commitment as a totally professional footballer.
It's up to the club if they feel this will improve us long term. I just don't agree.

It also has to be pointed out that the hatred of him didn't all come from the fact he played for United.
That wouldn't help, but like Rooney and now Bruno, it is the person (ego) they hated.
Some here were calling for Suez FFS!

I've heard it a million times before on here that no player is bigger than the club. We have never liked players with big ego's, and never should. So what has changed?
Some on here need reminding of that, while they are gagging for the ultimate egotist (Pogba aside), to pull on our shirt.

A little bit of sick appeared in my mouth even seeing that fake video from a few pages back...

Italy fought for the Axis powers during the start of the war and then were fighting for the Allies by the end.

I would imagine he's lost interest in money now, bit like @Ric ....got more than enough.

Ah shit Rooney said it's not happening. Fuck sake. Close thread.

A fair bit of revisionism going on from Rooney. Conveniently forgetting how he whored himself out to us in 2011.

Not sure he wants to share the limelight

Doubt Messi and Neymar want to give him any.
