The atmosphere for that first derby at OT is going to be something else.
He's going to get the worst reception a former Utd player has ever received, no doubt about it.
And rightly so too.

Neville, Rio, Evra etc. Who post constantly on social media are all silent. He's signing for City.
Given the clear love in our media team were giving him during the euros, I’m not buying that because it was ridiculous.
I reckon there were clear discussions ongoing and it’s broken down and now mendes is either panicking, or it’s a ploy to get us to stump up more money. Either way, I’m not buying PR spin.
IMO He’s currently being whored around Europe. If Mbappe gets sold, watch psg come in at the last minute.
Bro.
Before oil money what was city ?
Learn to be respectful to other posters man. It might be frustrating but not good dude.
City 100% are major rivals for Utd, especially if you're from Manchester.
The last 10 years have been fairly horrible and Ronaldo the cnut signing for them is another kick in the gut. He's going to be the most hated ex Utd player of all time, more hated than Tevez and even Paul Ince.
Not that he gives a shit I'm sure.
This seems likely.
Also, There’s no way Rio/Evra/Neville know nothing, they’re unusually silent
36 years old going on 37.
I'm over it.
Will be great to see him playing City's high pressing game.

I feel so sick about all of this. It’s a huge legacy tarnished, for the sake of 1-2 seasons with Pep.. I find it outrageous.
What makes me feel even worse is all the bollocks were going to get from City fans, and just how little we as a club seem to be doing about it.. shows massive lack of empathy towards United fans and complete lack of ambition to match the windows of City and Chelsea to try and close the gap, unfortunately it only seems to be getting bigger
(Praying for a good result Sunday to lift the mood)

When did you see me saying it was no biggie?
Sam Lee (Man City correspondent for the Athletic) said on Tuesday right after Kane deal was off that Mendes/Cristiano offered himself to City, but that City is still thinking.
I'm still at bargaining
Stay strong my friend, we will get Haaland.
Yep
I hope this happens, and I hope that Ronaldo fails miserably.
For one thing, I don't like Ronaldo as a person at all. Not since he left United in 2009 like a cnut. If he went to City, the rest of the fanbase would finally agree with me... better late than never.
On the other hand, I fully appreciate how good a play he is. If he went to City, it would improve them massively on paper. Which would make it even sweeter if Pep couldn't find a way to integrate him into the side and he flopped.

You will be held to this. Cant go through the 5 stages all over again!
It’s Karma… When RVP signed for us, we were super happy…. Now we are super sad…
Don’t cry for someone who doesn’t care…. Try to be better and be angry at our club..
I don’t care if he joins city but I would be angry if we don’t get Halland next year!! That’s unforgivable

Just think how good it will be when we smash City at Old Trafford this season, watching Ronaldo sulk off while the Stretford End give it to him will be a thing of beauty.
This pretty much sums it up for me.
The club played a key part in his development but he undoubtedly feels the debt was repaid on the pitch & with a rather sizeable transfer fee.
He’ll have fond memories of his time at the club but he hasn’t ever wanted to come back.
Really can’t understand why he would want to irreparably damage his legacy with United fans around the world by playing for City at this stage of his career. Ever since he left us all those years ago I never had any fear of him joining one of our Premier League rivals let alone City out of respect to us but here we are, now all expecting the worse to unfortunately happen imminently. What a truly crappy knock on effect of Daniel Levy refusing to let Kane leave.
Do any of you think less of the Law Man or Schmeichel for playing for City?
Football just feels like it's been turned upside down these days as a United supporter. It just feels like somewhere along the way, realty got all twisted and messed up.
We've got bloody Ronaldo sighing for City. We've gone from extremely dominant to never winning a thing. We make transfers that don't sit right with the old status quo, going for agreeing stars from other big teams, where they've already won everything. We play some drab football and a section of fans defend it to the max. By the same token I and others get fed up of a club legend who is now our manager.
Nothing feels right anymore.

If this move happens the noisy neighbours will get even noisier.
Hopefully something similar to what happened between Zlatan & Pep at their time together at Barca.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if he was totally ineffective coming back to Premier League at this age? End the season with 6 goals and getting dominated by the likes Tarkowski and Michael Keane most weeks.
Rememeber the Morata x Lukaku smokescreen.
Maybe Ronaldo is playing funny games with City only to join us.
Maybe?.....

Law played for City 1st, then moved to us and then he went back.
Schmeichel went there at the end of his career when he was pretty much finished as a GK, but even then, his cartwheel was shameful.
I don't think it's apples and apples.
Good luck to him. He has earned it. Ronaldo has be to be the hardest working player around. He can do what he wants. He transcends petty football rivalry.
Like feck he does. He’s going to kop so much abuse it’s not funny.
You are talking about the man who has been chasing Messi’s shadow since 2009, right?
Whatever bro
That was clearly a bait post from that dude
Law played for City before he played for United, and then moved back to City after his success with us. Completely different context.
Yes lots of United fans were fuming at the time when Schmeichel went to City and many still hold no love for him.
He wants more trophies, especially a CL and/or a Balon.
Won't get it at Juve, some senior guy at PSG said won't happen/don't ask again, Bayern wouldn't have him/afford him, big Spanish clubs still counting pennies (literally in Barca's case) so you're left with England.
Chelsea don't want him, United maybe don't want him/maybe Glazers won't stump up (who knows) so not many options left.
I don't think it's money, it's a title/CL/Balon chance. For all the "I will always love Manchester United" blah blah, we all know Ronnie is amazingly driven to win/break records... his legacy as a player outweighs his legacy as a United player (to him).
Not something I can get overly excited about or wanted to ever see tbh.
I had a feeling that we would sign him next year when Cavani is done with us and he is done with his Juve contract. Lets see how this goes.
He is ruining his name and his legacy if he makes the move to City.

On the bright side, he's 36, not 26.
