Because he’s reportedly already looking to take a paycut just to leave to a better club so why would he be mad at the same time that his salary is getting reduced for next season?
At this point in Ronaldo’s career and how much he makes off the pitch anyway, any move he’ll make will be done purely for sporting reasons.
Its a standard practice for United players to lose that CL uplift in salary if they don't get into the Top 4.
But it is true though.
Remember when so many on here wanted him as captain a few days ago it was a bad idea in the 1st place with only 1 year left and now looks even more ridiculous
Didnt he sell off his image rights off to Peter Lim?
Scholes said "Let the circus begin" when posting a Sky Sports story on Ronaldo not potentially coming on your
Doesn't really feel many are defending him

Usually I would say we should never sell a player to a PL rival, but if we could get Jorginho or Werner in from Chelsea with Ronaldo going the other way I would be happy with that
That would be a great deal, 0,0001 chance of happening though.
I will keep throwing Kante in there because lack some steel in the middle, would also take Werner
Not saying it isn’t true. I’m saying that the idea that its why he’s looking to leave, I very much doubt.
You just said the whole tweet was bs. Maybe be more specific.
All these players may love their clubs but they would all leave if their teams were way off winning anything and they could walk into another elite team.
Yeah. The best example of loving your club is for instance Buffon staying at Juventus when they were thrown to Serie B.
This is a bit harsh I think.
No doubt what he did is terrible but everyone deserves at least a second chance imo. Our current pastor is an ex convict. He was a drug dealer, even shot some guy, did a number of years and came out a completely new man.
That's not true. Del Piero and Buffon played in the Serie B with Juve back then.
This is his second chance, or did you forget when he fecked us off the first time?
Glazers do the same thing every time, they are trying to turn us against Ronaldo, Ronnie has lots of faults but I don't think he's going to get upset about the extra bit of money as we can see from his career that is not what motivates him. They did the same thing with RR, Mourinho etc the minute they leave/ close to leaving then the media spin begins, Rashford speaking out now as well as the new face, it scares me that people seem to believe this too.
I find it very confusing that those saying he isn’t even that good anymore are the ones that are angriest. Surely, if he wasn’t that important or at that level anymore, this wouldn’t have caused the storm it has. It should surely just be like letting another player go.
That’s more of an exception than an example, and they were always going to come back up, they were the reigning champions. They didn’t have a slow slide to shitness like us and Barca
What? Ronaldo is asking to leave, out of the blue right at the start of pre season. Not 2 months ago when he could've and we could've planned better. The day before he's supposed to come for pre season, he says he wants to leave, and then doesn't come to training (whatever the case is). And is gone indefinitely. This is all about Ronaldo always looking out for himself. That's it
That's a strange response, I'm not even necessarily "Ronaldo in" as I'd support whatever the manager wanted but I also don't believe everything I read
While I understand and agree with the criticism thrown at the club about our lack of signings, I still am in favour of letting Ronaldo go. He's 37 years old and yet he refuses to accept the bench and would cause a scene whenever things don't go his way. That's a disaster waiting to happen because at his age there will be plenty of things not going his way.
Your post is strange mate. It deserved such a response.
Glazers may have one plan only but that doesn’t mean it always works. RR spoke a lot of truth but he was a wank coach. Mou should have been backed but he was just a toxic aggressive disruption whose team had tuned him out. Most of the people here aren’t stupid and can’t be swayed by whatever garbage or leaks the Glazers or their lackeys put out there. Yes many understand why Ronaldo wants to leave but the timing, the artificial messaging (that the team is not competing for big trophies etc) come across as self-serving.
As good as those guys were, they’re not on Ronaldo’s level and don’t share his personal ambition to be seen as the best player of all time. That is his driving force behind all this. Personal glory. He’s not gonna get any of that remaining here for the last few years of his contract. He may never even play CL again if he stays as there’s no guarantee we’ll qualify for it next season.
Also, Del Piero and particularly Buffon were relatively young back then compared to Ronaldo now. So probably saw they had some time to get Juve back to the top. Ronaldo has no time.
Agree completely that it's bad timing and he is obviously a very self focused selfish person when it comes to his career, all players at the top are and have to be. I think it's disrespectful that he hasn't turned up to training and the excuse about family is not one I buy either, I support Man united and the manager but I don't believe this is sparked by a drop in wages, I think it's due to a lack of ambition in the transfer market and Ronaldo not thinking we will compete next year so now wants to move.
The world has gone bonkers
I was talking about Greenwood mate
100% strange to believe that Ronaldo is anything but self serving, he is solely focused on himself, I just don't believe his decisions are made for the extra £100k a week, he cares about individual awards, goals etc
TBH this slow slide to shitness is what lead to United giving a half a million a week contract to a 37 year old. Can you see SAF signing a 37 year old Ronaldo on silly money to bolster the treble team or the third CL winning team? Not in a million years.
Has nothing to do with it. Wants to play in the Champions League end of.
Good riddance. An amicable separation is best for all. We needed to reset so let’s suffer this short term pain, much preferable to this turning into a saga.
Disagree, just don't believe he is motivated by a drop in wages if we had bought a shed load of players and he thinks I'm going to score loads here, he would stay.
Then he would have left or said he wanted to leave a while back I think
I’m with you. I cringe every time he is mentioned on here, especially with reference to ever representing our great club again.
You don’t get arrested and then re-arrested without there being something seriously wrong. He simply doesn’t deserve a career in football, let alone at a club like United. I hope we never see his sorry hide again.
Feck himI was talking about Greenwood mate
Your opinion. I disagree.
Nevertheless it was a big statement. Similar to Del Piero, I think Fergie wanted to buy him at the time but he decided to stay put.
