Are people really moaning that he might not get booed by the match day fans at the weekend? :lol:
Yes. Because he is a cnut who has no respect to this club. And by giving him warm welcome, we really look pathetic and small
 






And I would love a million dollars in a briefcace handed to me by Emily Ratajkowski...
 
Napoli are dismantling all the squad with also Fabian Ruiz leaving as a free agent

I believe more on Sporting
 

“Bell Sporting again, la”

How are we 'forcing him to stay' if nobody wants him? I'm dreading him being here past August, the season will likely be another write off.
 
Read somewhere on twitter that this M. Sainz guy is mostly fabricating things from thin air and speculating. He isn’t actually that ITK. Supposedly, Mendes shut him out a year ago.

Would explain why his claim that Naigelsmann wanted Ronaldo was promptly quashed by the German coach.

The only journalist you can really trust is Fabrizio imo. A lot of them are just clout chasing like this Sainz guy.

Same here. My only hope now is ETH. If he has enough balls and support.
 


When even the Mendes mouthpieces are accepting there's no interest that's got to be chastening.

Still don't understand why Ronaldo chose to make such a fuss without a club to go to.
 
It's embarrassing to see some people saying this guy must fight his way back to the team full of bang average footballer. It's Cristiano feckin Ronaldo the Goat himself , do me a favor
Pre season Benzema , a striker version of Andreas Pereira. Reminder, this guy is not even good enough for Sevilla. Should have been sold long time ago when Mourinho wanted to get rid of him. This is also the same guy who runs away from pre season tour under Mourinho but didn't get half the hate Ronaldo is getting these days for doing the same just because they don't like the manager.
It's a 37 year old who's way past his best.
 
Why don’t they offer a player swap with Fabian Ruiz then? Would make sense for both parties

Why would that make sense for Napoli?! Would it have made sense to swap Bruno for Ronaldo last summer?
 
Player who shits on the club and doesn't care for the club got warm welcome from the fans and is still loved by the fans. You can't make that shit up. We deserve to be in situation in which we are.

I was there and it was 50/50 cheers Vs booing. Then complete silence when it was announced he was going off until Amads name was read and then there was applause for him.

It was 80% kids at the ground, United were giving away tickets to schools. I'm not sure he'll get the same on Sunday.

For what it's worth there was a lot of booing when he first walked out onto the pitch too.

Ronaldo now going on social media saying "it's always nice to spend time with the fans" is him with his tail between his legs just incase he has to stay.
 
He'll be here until the last week of the transfer window, then he'll go on Loan to Sporting until January, at which point he'll either quietly stay there for rest of the season or join someone else permanently. Put a monkey on it. Monster, monster, monster!
 
I went to OT yesterday. It saddened me to hear him booed. Whatever is going on he deserves more respect than that :nono:

No, he doesn’t. He’s not exactly respected the club has he? He’s on silly money. If normal people have paid money for a ticket, they can boo who they want.


These next few weeks are going to be TOXIC. He's going to make United let him go for free.

I dunno I already think he’s hedging his bets by the stuff he’s posting on social. He’ll spin it hugely if he ends up having to stay.

I really can't see him getting booed.

I think he will. I’d say about 30-40% of Stretford End booed him yesterday and it was tons of school kids and families that didn’t.

Wasnt he the only player subbed at half time?

Yeah but he’s also not played at all pre season and has missed the vast majority of training.

You sure it wasn't 'SIIIUUU' or some bollocks.

Insert Simpsons meme here etc...

Haha Luckhurst tried to claim this in MEN but I guarantee some people booed him for sure. I did for one.

Why do fans get so offended when certain players are booed ?
Its pretty harmless considering .

Honestly people act personally offended it’s embarrassing. Players are rich they don’t need randoms sticking up for them.
 
Honestly, I hope he doesn't get booed, because it will just fuel the attention on him and distract the players. Just give him a polite response like you would give the likes of Telles, Bailly, VDB, and hopefully we can move on and focus on the important things at United. The less attention he gets the better, in my opinion. I don't think he's the kind of player to just give up, he'll still work for the team, he's a professional on the pitch - but he'll moan and strop while on the bench so he gets attention and it's up to us not to give it to him.
 
Just NO. His passing has always been his weakest point And never has he "bossed a game" atleast consistently. One preseason game doesn't change that.
Err… he did actually boss the game consistently during his physical peak throughout his whole 20s… You’ve got a short memory span.
 

If they thought they were just going to pick a CL team to come running for Ronaldo they really couldn't have picked a worse summer. Chelsea were never going to overrule Tuchel so soon after the Lukaku transfer burned a massive hole in their pocket. Bayern were already moving away from an iconic 9 setup and PSG are also reportedly fed up of their high maintenance image. The Athletico one doesnt even need explaining. Double for Barcelona who are trying to restructure their salary system.

I'm sorry , but no he didn't. I watched almost all his games at United and at Madrid and he simply did not. Against bigger sides like ourselves in the UCL 2013, vs Barcelona etc he was anonymous but popped up with a goal or two. Against smaller sides where Real was outright superior he was a bigger threat but more as a goal threat rather than a dominating playmaker.

Ronaldo in his peak was great at counter attacks, heading, long distance shooting, and anticipating where the ball will fall for him to score. All these are geared to scoring goals. At no point was he a good passer and neither did he have good vision. And as as far as dribbling was concerned, it was almost always about pace and having acres of space to run into facilitating counter attacks.

The only exception to all this was 2006/07 season where his allround play was really good/great and while he wasn't exactly a playmaker, he was a more consistent threat from the wings than he has ever been.

I understand you love Cristiano and yes he is one of the greatest ever but that is based purely on the number and importance of his goals rather than dominating opponents/ playmaking. There is always the danger of creating myths which you are already doing.

With Lewandowski gone to Barcelona, one would've thought Bayern could have been a possible move. Strange they didn't go for him. Could have been a boost for another Champions League trophy for them.

At this point I would rather see him leave, as it seems to be his wish, but if he ends up staying I bet he'll be our top scorer again. Even if we play better without him in the team, he'll score the goals. That's just what he does.
 
Considering our lack of forward options I think we should 'force' him to stay. Usually I'd be worried about keeping a player who doesn't really want to be here but I think in Ronaldo's case he has such a big ego (in a good way) that he will still want to play, win and score as many goals as possible.

Honestly I can't really blame him for wanting to leave after last years complete shambles but you would hope with ETH and if we can get a few more signings then we will hopefully be an unrecognisable team compared to last season
