Getting the Benoit treatment I see.

Totally agree.
Meanwhile we'll still be able to benefit from the sponsors deals and sell shirts to his fans. Afaik lot of sponsor deals might have a thing with our biggest names. But tbh I'd like us to take the #7 from him and give him the #37
I don't know but Marseille fans are for example significantly more vocal and critical than any current british fan base. One of the good things of british Football is that in general, the fans are well behaved with some exceptions.
Always thought Cassano was a bighead but he speaks the truth here.
Funny that Ronaldo's been getting sick so often in the past couple of weeks, eh? Didn't look sick in the training videos yesterday. Wonder what's making him so susceptible to conveniently timed bouts of illness..?
He’s finished at United.
To be fair I'd get sick too if I had to spend 90 minute talking to Piers Morgan.
On the flip side, Messi is scoring worldies in the warm up matches for Argentina
This makes sense.
So let him speak up then. Except he won't, because he has never, to my knowledge, said anything to upset the Glazers (why bite the hand that feeds you) and despite this poster thing today, I bet the owners will still hope Ronaldo will play again for United (even though he shouldn't). Having him in the squad and on the pitch frequently gives the team a superstar name that matters to the owners (and their accountants) even if it hurts the team's performance overall.
Piers Morgan on talksport. My god, this guy is embarrassing! This interview will make him look worse than Ronaldo!
In the poll, there should be a 5th poll option: Make him see out his contract and feck him off to the reserves.
Personally, I would drag his sorry ass back to OT, stick him on the bench and make him face the fans. He got out of that so easy.

Then they saw the rust underneath and quickly put it back up
Madeira’s ex-President: “This anti-Ronaldo campaign is Portugal at its worst: jealousy, ungratefulness and badmouthing the most famous Portuguese person ever, who is from Madeira! Not a nerd from Lisbon. Ronaldo, tell them to f*** off!”
He's one of the very few people of whom I believe that they might actually care about stuff like this.That’ll show him!
Probably crying off ill so he can do a follow up interview to clear up tonight's s-tshow.
At the risk of nitpicking: being critical and very vocal about it isn't necessarily the same as well-behaved though. Although Ajax fans are also the type that will physically confront staff and players if things aren't going they way they want; so I suppose it does kinda go hand in hand. (For actual hooliganism, Feyenoord probably still 'wins' it in the Netherlands. Maybe Nice in France? Or also Marseille?)
Would have been funnier to stick somebody else’s head on him - like Valencia or Michael Owen
Or exchange his head with the one on this weird statue.Would have been funnier to stick somebody else’s head on him - like Valencia or Michael Owen
They can’t take down the only poster that matters: the 12ft one he has of himself on his bedroom wall.
Thats the no.7 legends poster isn't it? Probably just replacing it as they frequently do.
To some extent but I include patience in the notion of being well behaved. And no Marseille fans aren't really hooligans, for them it's almost exclusively about Football, they are vocal and ready for action if they feel that the players or the club isn't representing the club well. I think that they are childishly impatient but it's rarely for no reason.
Nice, Lyon or Montpellier have lunatics of all sorts within their fanbases that will create havoc regardless of what happens on the field.
I've come to the conclusion Piers Morgan must be on the Ronaldo payroll.
He can't honestly believe the absolute nonsense he's talking regarding Ronaldo. It's cringe worthy listening to him lick Cristiano's arse.
Claiming he'd take the current Ronaldo for Arsenal. More PR work for Cristiano.

Its a hugely famous person who actually likes him. He will milk it for all its worth
The Hagonavirus?
Half today half tomorrow can't let this fizzle out too quickly.
I agree. Nobody was a bigger fan of CR7 than me, but first and foremost Im a fan and supporter of Manchester United and there are no players or managers bigger than the Club. Sir Matt Busby and Sir Alex defined the Club but did not put themselves above it and I dont think they ever thought they had done so or wanted to do so. Sir Bobby defined the Club as a player ans ambassador but would have hated to think he might ever be considered bigger than it was. Weve had great players in the past who threw the odd tantrum, my own all time Hero Denis Law in his prime famously asked Busby for a rise or a transfer; Busby immediately put him on the transfer list and within days Denis apologized for his behaviour; Busby took him off the list and gave him his rise, but honour and principle were served and Denis never forgot the lesson he learned....nobody but NOBODY is bigger than the Club! Ronaldo has never learned this lesson, maybe he was never taught it, and in all likelyhood he was over indulged by the club, the managers he srved under and supporters and had started to believe that he WAS bigger than the club. For the excitement and wonder Ronaldo brought to Old Trafford and for the trophies he helped us win, I will always remember him fondly, but I can never forgive him for trying to hold Manchester United to ransom by basically refusing to play as and when the manager decided because he believed he knew better than the manager and was more important than him.Totally agree.

It's being replaced with an image of Malcolm Glazer in his North Korean general's uniform.
Nah. He's doing precisely what PR7 has accused the likes of Neville for - riding his fame. The manchild is probably the most famous athlete on the planet, so it makes sense that Morgan is all over him.
As to why Ronaldo entertains him - that's a good question. Probably because he likes how Morgan shamelessly grovels at his feet.
If anyone says that they should be shot down immediately (not literally
). I've not seen many posters saying this to be fair. I REALLY hope we don't pay him a penny if the contract is terminated. A sale, or a mutual contract termination, or training alone for the remainder of his contract are the only options. I'd honestly be so disappointed in the club if they paid his remaining contract. It just wouldn't be right at all.
Good start by removing posters and mural's. Next step is to Remove all record, video of his history from United archives to blacklist his name from the club.
I hope Joel Glazer release a smear documentary like Vince Mcmamon did with the Ultimate Warrior called ''The Self Destruction of Christiano Ronaldo''

what the heck? who's he talking about?Madeira’s ex-President: “This anti-Ronaldo campaign is Portugal at its worst: jealousy, ungratefulness and badmouthing the most famous Portuguese person ever, who is from Madeira! Not a nerd from Lisbon. Ronaldo, tell them to f*** off!”
I wonder if Ronaldo being sick is something to do with United and contract negotiations?
He doesn't have to.
There's no reason to believe that ETH doesn't have the support of the only people that matter ultimately.
I mentioned Robson before for a reason: he's an official "ambassador". You can safely assume that he's toeing the party line. I'd like to think that he genuinely likes ETH's style, of course - but it doesn't really matter: there's no chance that he's pro ETH whereas the club as such is pro Ronaldo (to put it like that).
We should replace it with a picture of Messi holding his 7 Ballon d'ors.Would have been funnier to stick somebody else’s head on him - like Valencia or Michael Owen
