Ahh footballers, greatest geniuses of our time.
This cant be real?
Is that Messi and is this a real picture?
It's real. It's an advert for Louis Vuitton. They're playing chess on a LV suitcase.
Nor Arnold, from the little we know of him.
Of course it won’t make any difference to the cultists; to them they are all just Glazer stooges.
Why not?
0D chess
Ronaldo's winning by far. He has an extra bishop and Messi's rook is isolated and useless.
Wow. Imagine how much money Messi and Ronaldo made off this ad. Tens of millions.
Messi really can't do it without Xavi and Iniesta
Messi could have the game won in 2 moves from that position though
From questioning the source of content, which isn't even what I am trying to say here. But anyway, I feel the club is trying to terminate the contract without making a big fuss out of it.
Yeah. If he left in the summer and then said what he said (minus insulting the incoming manager) it would have been great. But he’s done it at a time when we’re improving and have our best starting 11 in over a decade and he’s insulted the manager who is responsible for our improvement.
I actually have those chess pieces.
No one... it doesn't even look like the standard 8x8 chess board
I have a set that is similar as well as a couple that are more intricate.
Did they come with a varnished little wooden box?
You’re the one who is missing the point.
That set yeah. I got them all about 20 years ago when I was all in to playing chess on a regular basis.
Whatever. Let's end this here.
They’re the same as mine also about 20 years old.. nice set.
Yeah they are.
How on earth does a serious club buy an aging player that they never planned for and definitely didn't need (we'd just bent over backwards to convince Cavani to stay) simply because it would be an embarrassment if he went to their rivals?!That was incredibly stupid.
It grates that even pundits I consider sensible casually go "they couldn't have let him go to City" as sound logic
We shouldn't gloss over the fact that the majority of this forums users appeared to be over the moon that Utd appeared to gazzump City in signing him.
Well this is how it usually worksThey post it together on the same time
I have said that was my only silver lining at the time.
None of this is true. When did Greenwood reach world class level? He has many flaws in his game. A few cameo performances and we talking about best teenager? There are teenagers playing first team week in week out in strong leagues e.g. Camavinga was a teen until 9 days ago. Jamal Musiala is a teen. Bellingham is a teen. Let him play a season in the first team for a while and secure a place before we proclaim him the best teen in the world based off a literal handful of cameo impact sub performances.
See below as I agree with them.
Ronaldo looks like he's trying to move the pieces with his mind. Messi looks like he's considering shoving one of the pieces up his nose.
Great experience for the U21s
I think he has a lot to offer the young lads, could do a job for them
That is true . I had happily forgotten all about him for a while. But the Ronaldo situation hurts more because he came to us at such a young age and will probably be the best player ever to be at the club.
Poor man’s Tom Huddlestone. Don’t want.
Ronaldo is not going to the U21’s, he’ll leave before he takes that humiliation.
They post it together on the same time
Paid partnerships usually have a scheduled roll out date/time.
Ronaldo: Football is too much of a business these days.
Also Ronaldo: Posts a luggage commercial featuring his biggest on field competitor

Ed the Idiot says hi
The hostile responses to the OP in this thread are hilarious in retrospect. Just a reminder of how many delusional know-nothings there are sounding off around here.
The moderators should unlock it so everyone can apologise to @Rajma who was completely right about every single thing he said, and then they should apologise for locking it.

I fear that we may have all misjudged Ronaldo. His mum says
Cristiano Ronaldo's mother breaks her silence on his Manchester United fallout as she applauds a post on social media telling Erik ten Hag to 'F*** OFF' and branding the Red Devils boss 'a miserable footnote in history'
So that makes me think, we could all be wrong, because, well, his mum is saying he's a good lad.
