Too many posts and tweets to trawl through. So my question simply is: is there any indication that there's a chance he might sign for us?
Cristiano Ronaldo | Signs for United! Fcuk City

I’m surprised you have exes.
More than enough isn't a thing when every other club is growing their's and would then be in line for the best deals and in turn make the most money. Money they'd invest into a better team than us.
Ronnie.
God I hate that nickname.
God I hate that nickname.
not really
So he's joining a team who have never won the champions league..in order to win the champions league?
Right.
Rio liked that Sam Billings tweet too? He can get in the bin along with Ronaldo if he joins City. Streets won't forget 
I know what you meanI think it's arguable that since he left, now is the team we need him the least.
That's probably poorly worded but hopefully it makes enough sense for people to understand what I mean
I was 100% comfy with him not coming back, and tarnishing the great early days.
But I'd much prefer we got him instead of City. That'd be a sickener.
Tevez was bad enough, and he was a scrote and 1/1000th of Ronaldo
So am I, how could anyone give this up.
It's entirely based on Rio posting eyes and a gif. So comes down to whether you think he knows something, or not.
At the end of the day, Ronaldo is a professional and will do what he feels is for the benefit of his career.
The hurtful aspect of this probable move to City is Utds lack of interest and ambition to compete, Cavani and Greenwood sustain injuries then the Glazers precious top 4 ambitions are at risk, says much about the actual state of the running of the club, which is business and profits first, not quite the same club that Ronaldo first dazzled with pre 2005.

Rio is single handedly keeping spirits up on here
Him joining City would make me hate City and him both even more than I do now, so let’s gooooo
Nothing credible
It wouldn't be so bad if he didn't say in an interview in 2015 that it would be very very very very difficult to join City because of his love for Manchester United.
He does, and anyone who scored that amount of goals would normally cost around 100-150m or more. But Ronaldo is 36, so maybe a lot cheaper.
Probably a lot of things.
I never said they aren’t our rivals at all, but a lot of the hoopla about this supposed rivalry is manufactured and recently too. City fans hating us doesn’t equate or translate to them being our rivals or biggest rivals (which was the implication in the post I replied to initially). It just means they are jealous. They have little brother syndrome. They are not our equals despite being in an upward trajectory for years, and the only reason they are our rivals is because of geography. Might as well say Bolton Wanderers are up there in terms of rivalry for us if that’s the criteria. Our rivalries with Liverpool and Leeds eclipse any rivalry with City

It's a guy who said "I stay" right after winning the European cup for us, then spent all summer trying to leave.
Current betting odds put us in a virtually dead heat with city (albeit with city slight favorites). Based on that I don't think it's nailed on that he goes to city.
I just hope all the cnuts that were berating Rooney when there were talks of him moving to City (probably nonsense) or moving clubs in general have that same energy for the angel Ronaldo.
I have never rated him as a legend of the club anyway. Simply because, to do that, you need longevity. From the time he came, there's no denying what he gave to our club was special, but I always felt he was always itching to leave. Became a period when it felt like we were begging him to stay.
Fast forward, and the club who made him the player who is, especially Sir Alex, who he often describes as a ''father figure'', is now willing to tarnish that because of his massive ego in trying to prove he's better than Messi, by potentially trying to win more trophies than him.
It is what it is anyway....

If he genuinely loves the club, he would come back to us and help us win the league. That is if the club are willing to have him back.
Maybe Fergie is on the phone to him right now like a father would and tell him not to go to City?

His will to leave Juventus this summer far exceeds all the difficulties. To be fair City is the only club willing to offer him a contract. We turned him down.It wouldn't be so bad if he didn't say in an interview in 2015 that it would be very very very very difficult to join City because of his love for Manchester United.
Send Martial or Cavani to Torino. Even Steven.
I don't want us to sign him.
Should put the rumours to bed soon enough
Well if you swapped the word "team" for "time" we wouldI think it's arguable that since he left, now is the team we need him the least.
That's probably poorly worded but hopefully it makes enough sense for people to understand what I mean
but yeah ,I know what you mean.I would say, if we had anticipated all of this, we could have let Cavani go, and offered Ronaldo a 1 year deal with the option of a 1 year extension. Then went all in for Haaland next year.
How so? With the creativity we have now and a more stable defense, a selfish CF would be great, on paper.I think it's arguable that since he left, now is the team we need him the least.

Odds have shortened for City and lengthened for us. Its off
Ole presser for wolves incoming.. will defo get asked about Ronaldo.
Who’s Steven?
People like that just say things we want to hear to keep them popular.It wouldn't be so bad if he didn't say in an interview in 2015 that it would be very very very very difficult to join City because of his love for Manchester United.
Mourinho did the same thing with Spurs, but he had no hesitations joining them either. It's all fluff.
Man, you are so right. I am emotional. This would hurt me to see him playing for City. But if city weren't in for him, would I be clamouring for his signature? Nope, I would not.
I feel that with Murtough and Fletcher in place we need to start planning forger ahead than the next year or so. We need to stop signing players on ludicrous deals that then inspire lesser players to ask for obscene sums. We need to be less emotional, colder and more logical.
I will HATE seeing him play for City but it's that reason enough for us to throw the good work we have been doing out of the window? Not on your nelly.
Hmmmm…. Maybe why Sancho didn’t take the #7???? Cavani passing it to CR7 and moving to new number???
How long are the press going to pretend they give a shit about the Wolves game before that ask about Ronaldo?

This thread is more amusing than the let's all laugh at England one
