I think we should have Calderon kidnapped, then beaten, and arse raped by a Gorrilla. that should send out some kind of warning about tapping up United players.
ALL Ronaldo's future/comments/speculation
- Thread starter Tabasco Sauce
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss three 1-1 draws.
The first got us knocked out of the FA Cup, the next puts us in a good position in our Round of 16 Europa League game, and the latest was an actual decent performance against Arsenal at Old Trafford.
All hopes for the season now rest on the Europa League - does Amorim have the squad to win it?

I think Calderon would instead tap the Gorilla from behind, thus raping it himself.
Seeing as Sheasy was smiling throughout the interview I think that's pretty obvious. This picture, that says it all really, was also taken the morning after:Still, that begs the question, who was the postman and who was the letterbox?
The part about United not making any moves in the transfer market because everyone's busy tearing out their eyelashes in frustration over Ronaldo's indecision.
I am of course affected by the affair myself, I would indeed very much like the best player in the world to play for my club, but I am (for some reason) quite confident he'll stay for at least another season, and even if he doesn't I think we'll cope alright. I also find myself quite unable to be very offended with his behaviour, I know we've done a lot for him, but he's also done quite a lot for us, and if his ultimate ambition in life isn't to end his days in front of the Stretford End, I can live with that. As to keeping us in suspense, well, I can live with that too. Being stressed out over matters I'm not in control of is not in my nature. (Well, it is when United are playing. But only then.)
No not a swarm of contenders. In fact, I'm struggling to think of any really special players at the moment that are in the same category as most of the previous winners.
umpteen players have scored 42 goals or thereabouts but haven't been fortunate enough to have the team mates that Ron has. I'm not belittling his contribution but please, get a grip. Do we tear a player's contract up every time he has a good season?
Can you tell us more about what Real have offered him?
Thought not, you just believe every snippet of tripe in the red-tops.
Very little well sourced information
After reading through miles of column inches and watching interviews with Ronaldo and with people being asked about Ronaldo here is how things stand based on the short list of things that have not been made up by the various news outlets:
Ronaldo has stated his desire to stay at Manchester United next season but as we all know has dreams of playing in Spain. Real Madrid have been cnuts and done everything they can to unsettle the player, as this speculation has reached rediculous levels Ronaldo has gone quiet and refused to say anything about his future, and despite various newspapers claiming to have quotes from Cristiano himself this is obviously not true. Even the Brazilian report about him wanting to leave was shown to probably not have happened. Ronaldo's mum is desperate for him to play for Madrid, yet on television said she is certain he will be at Manchester next season.
There has been hardly any useful or factual information added to this transfer circus since it began months ago. Ronaldo is being criticized for his silence but it may well be the correct thing to do in this situation, he needs to focus on The Euro's and it is at the end of the competition when he will finally be able to sit down with Manchester United and discuss his future. All the indications for me from 'real' sources have been that he is staying next season.
despite many not being keen on the idea he is likely to be offered a new contract by Manchester United after the Euros.
but the main point is that he is not for sale under any circumstances.

Would it be safe to say that Manchester United can put an end to Real Madrid's pursuit of Ronaldo by saying that we will not be considering any bids below £200MIO??
Well Fazer I like the name
Hope to get myself one soon

I don't think it's that easy, putting a silly figure like that on it will only slow negotiations, not put an end to them.
Although it's not easy I think player(s) have to come the other way in any deal. Cash means nothing if you can't get your man
I'm beginning to get slightly annoyed as well. But nothing can take away the shine away from this season.
The only excuse I can give him for this dilly dallying is that he genuinely doesn't know what to do and from what I've seen I believe this is the case. I think too many people are telling him different things, he's fallen for his own hype leaving him a bit confused. Hopefully SAF has a chat to him after the Euros and gets him back to Manchester.
But even if he stays, this speculation will always be there. I suppose it's a small price to pay for 42 goals a season.
BTW - first ever thread to half a million views?
The Tevez one had over 10,000 posts, but only 488k views...

The simple fact is,that despite the constant and wasteful speculation,Ronnie has not once,uttered that he would like to leave United this season. Do we not all agree that it seemed alot worse after the World Cup? This was when it seemed destined that he would leave with Ronnie being harrassed by both the media and many a United fans,alot on the Caf btw.
Nothing has come directly from his mouth,until then,he is a United player.

What happened, did you have it destroyed?
Not unless we want to send out a message to Real that we are not open to negotiations and that the only way we are willing to come to the table is via a ridiculous offer, after all isn't Real supremely confident of making back the transfer money for Ronaldo via merchandising?
We should be making it as difficult or as expensive as possible for them to get Ronaldo and thats the price they have to pay for tapping him up.
The problem then might that Mendes would argue that Ronaldo should be paid an awful lot more than the reported £120k a week he is on.

Ronaldo's Mother

Here's what we should do: You know that scene in Godfather when they kill that dude's horse and put the head in his bed while he's sleeping. That's what we should do to Calderon. Queiroz should fly to Madrid, kill Ruud and put his head in Calderon's bed. That would teach him.
ROFL
I agree, this is the only way to pay Calderon back. Horses head in the bed never fails

Yeah saw it on SSN.She definitely said it.
Hmmm yup..think you are right..I didn't think of that.
I'm glad it's confirmed, because we all know she is desperate for him to play at Madrid...
I had the strangest dream last night, I was staying in a hotel and I bumped into fergie on a mobility scooter...I had a chat with him and asked him about Ronaldo, and even he wouldn't bloody tell me
Though he did give a cheeky grin as if to say he was staying.I can't believe I've just added my dream to the speculation.
Fazer 600 is a great bike for touring. Can't imagine ridin a bike in Ireland, would freeze my nuts off!!
If ronaldo decides to leave then so be it. We have been through worse. Players come and go but Manchester United will always be there. Wish he would stay though
To be fair Hargreaves is the only player we've bought from a really really big club over the last number of years. Bayern probably wanted to sell him in the end to fund moves for the likes of Ribery and Toni,they weren't in the Champions League last season after all. We got Blanc and Silvestre from Inter but they were either very old or not well established, Blomqvist from Milan (who im not sure was a regular)
We've never bought players from the so called other big 4 in England. We weren't able to get Shearer when he was at Blackburn etc, Vieira when he was at Arsenal. We've bought players from clubs in England who aren't in the Champions League, or maybe who weren't even in the UEFA Cup, and these players weren't being that well paid etc.Rooneys Everton finished 17th the season before he left, he fell out with Moyes, they had debts and needed money to strenghen other areas of the squad. I could feel sympathy for their fans, but it was inevitable he was going to leave them and United was the most obvious choice (he was a big fan of Scholes growing up, he was living not too far away etc) some time unless they were seriously challenging for honours, liked they did in the 80s etc. We mightn't have got Smith and Rio from Leeds if they had maintained their progress and not run into financial ruin and eventually got relegated.
We've bought players from clubs like PSV, Sporting etc who don't pay good wages. We've never been able to buy big name players from other really big European clubs before Hargreaves(and we went about it the right way)
We didn't launch long and tiresome media campaigns etc(including ivolving our own players) when we interested in players like Shearer, Hargreaves etc. You get idiots saying that we unsettled Hargreaves for instance, yet we would have been able to sign him 2 years if Ruud had agreed to join Bayern instead of Real. We might not have been able to sign him if Bayern had qualified for the Champions League last season or if they valued him more as a player.
Obviously i could understand fans from other clubs being annoyed when their players have been sold to United but they could surely recognise that it was more understandable in those circumstances than for Ronaldo to leave for Madrid. Especially when you consider players like Kaka wants to stay at Milan after not qualifying for the Champions League and they have an ageing squad and Benzema doesn't want to leave Lyon, where i doubt hes on more than £30-40k a week(very good mind, but nothing compared to what he could earn elsewhere)

Why not.We've had Pictures,Poems and quotes from the Sun.
How is it more understandable for say Rooney to leave Everton for United than Ronaldo to leave for Madrid ?
Everton are in the UEFA cup places consistently and perhaps with Rooney they could have been much higher up in the table and attract better quality players to the club. Though not United or Liverpool, Everton have a good history and his dream as a kid was to play and win trophies with Everton.
Ronaldo has always wanted to play for Real from childhood. He has more than compensated for the risk, investment (12 million) and support from United.
5 years - 2 Premierships, 1 CL, 1 FA cup and 1 league cup.
Yeah but Everton finished 17th the season before he left. They ended up finishing 4th that season but that was an anomaly(couldn't get into the group phase of the Champions League, and then got knocked out in the first round of the UEFA Cup), Liverpool were concentrating on the Champions League, and teams like Spurs, Villa etc weren't as good as they are now. He wasn't getting on with the manager. I accept they have a very good history(but they haven't done much since the 80s) but with the money they got for Rooney(remember they had debt problems) they were able to go out and buy other players such as Arteta, Phil Neville etc to strengthen other areas of the team. He would have stayed if they were a really really good team. If he had stayed they might have had to sell players like Cahill and Yobo for instance.
As for Ronaldo always wanting to play for Real, i'm not so sure. He said before that Benfica were the club he supported as a kid. He said recently he didn't watch his first European Cup final until 2003, Juve and Milan. Surely if he was a big Real fan he'd have watched their finals in 98, 2000 and 2002. Anyhow Paddy Crerand and Steve Bower said on MUTV a few years back that Rooney told them(on a flight back from the tour of Asia in 2005) that United had been his favourite team other than Everton before he joined the club.
Im sure he'd have loved to have stayed at the club if they were successful. But he fell out with the manager, they hadn't qualified for Europe and weren't far from relegation in his last season and moving to a club where he was quite close to home, working with a manager who was great at keeping young players on the straight and narrow etc seemed logical.
What a fecking spacktard.
Oh. So they aren't the European and double league champions then? And he didn't leave to go to less succesful club?
Oh.
Ronnie wants to leave for a less successful club ? Real are less successful than United ? If Villareal win the CL next season and we are trophyless, would they become a more successful than us ?
You are a fecking retard.
That's shit. Should Robbo have left as well for more successful clubs?
Rooney in leaving Everton made a bigger cnut of himself than Ronaldo right now. He went on with once a blue, always a blue crap and said he would stay forever. While Ronaldo has always maintained he would like to play in Spain. If he had stayed like Torres stayed at Atletico for a good amount of time, then it would have been understandable to leave for more success.
According to that Instant Karma bloke, Real have got a great side. Clearly a step up from the European Champions and double winners.
The point is most players would move to a bigger club + lot more money unless they are playing with their local/dream club or they have been brought through the youth system.
Ronaldo is no different to Rooney or Rio or Carrick or any of the other players we buy.
