Would you have Ronaldo at City?

Difficult one.

He is undoubtedly a good player and you always want good players on your team. However, his continued eyelash fluttering at that lot would always be a nagging concern (ie fucking off at first opportunity). I'd also have the concern that in Spain the oft repeated mantra is Messi plays for Barca, Ronaldo plays for Ronaldo.

Does that type of player fit in with the ethos Los Dos y Pell are building? Fucked if I know. However, I'd always be worried about what's around the corner if we were to sign him.

Never gonna happen anyway so of course, all hypothetical.
 
This is a complete 'no brainer' of course we would have him at City. Anyone saying otherwise is deluded. In all honesty I can not see it happening though.
 
I recall the Madrid match at home. Usual hissy fit on the touchline and not getting the free kick - crowd chant was "You've always been a banker!" No doubt that he plays for himself at all times but we would be stronger - so lets not rule it out if it ever became a possibility - it might even results in increased rag payment if they are after him and think they can afford him.

I think that may well be the point of the rumour. I can well imagine this has all originated from the Bernabeu.

I wonder though, does all this mean that after not selling a virus to Real, they are now in the market for one?
 
think the guy is an absolute prick, but that would instantly change as a result of my incredibly fickle nature when it comes to seeing someone in a blue shirt. i can't ever imagine it happening tho
 
yes, don,t like him but you can,t deny he is quality, but there is not a chance he would sign for us.
 
no doubting his ability......but personally cant stand the cheating, diving, winking, rag-arroganced toerag..........you only need go back to the city v madrid at the bluecamp last season, and remember the grief he got from city fans, says it all, even if city wanted to buy.!!!!

Yes but that's because he was playing against us and has a United history. That would happen to any ex United player who we were facing, especially one with Ronaldo's status in the game. If he signed for City I would say that 99.9% of those who gave him grief would cheer him as much as they would any other City player.
 
Yes. Yes. And thrice yes. One of the best players of all time.

No doubting that he's an arrogant sod........but he would be our arrogant sod. Would guarantee the league for the next three years and would send rags all over the world scurrying under their Stan Laurel duvee covers, fingers in ears, mumbling naaaa naaa naaa, ad infinitum.
