United Thread - 2021/22

Ronaldo scored 101 goals in a Juventus shirt, crowned with two league titles, one Coppa Italia and two Supercoppe. As Luigi Garlando wrote in La Gazzetta dello Sport: “In three years, CR7 amassed the numbers of a normal human’s entire career.”

Juventus are currently doing a squad re-build, and Ronaldo at this stage of his career is the cherry on top of a ready made cake, not the player you need to build your team around, especially with only a year left on his contract. This is why a short deal at City/United was quite enticing for both clubs. He guarantees goals, trophies and success. He demands it. Who doesn't want a bit of that?

It evidently wasn’t enticing for the only team in Manchester!

Yet, you were trying to sign him only last Friday, and 85% of the people on this forum wanted him to come, according to your poll.

According to the club - and some media reports I have read - we were NOT trying to sign him.

And the question in the poll was, would you be happy if fake joined City. There’s a difference.

I think highpeakprowler is Terry C - just as ignorant.

AKA little pecker. He just wants to talk footy, you know.

I wouldn't worry about what your rag mates think. They're all cunts.

Did I say mates? I meant the local tramps

We wanted him to come but the club didn’t.

As confirmed by every journalist going and Pep himself.

Mendes blatantly used our name to get his big money move and ridiculous contract.

I read he takes home 375k AFTER tax

The way the media reduce the rags money it'll be a packet of Polo mints within a month.

For all you lurking rags, whichever way you choose to dress it up your club has just signed an ageing show-pony for a ridiculous amount of money, but it’s okay because it was apparently a ‘gift’ from that senile octogenarian with the crippling alcohol addiction - you know, the one who is really in charge of your club…not that Norwegian yes-man you lemmings have all been lead to believe is in charge.

Absolute fucking joke of a club.

Calls us berties for 35 years then they go and do this.

Standard.

 

[its grim up north]

£872k per week before tax was calculated by somebody on here last week

That's the figure I like and is the one I'm quoting to all my rag 'aquaintances' who haven't got a clue

I was talking to a raggy mate and I said Ronaldo and Cavani were aggregate aged 73 and on a combined 1.2 million. He did not contradict me so those are the facts I'm using in future.
