He's done that in a Real Madrid team set up to ensure he scores and scores well. No other team in the world other Barcelona can create even close to those sort of chances for him to score the 50 goals a season. Maybe PSG because the league is poor.
If Zlatan could do it, Ronaldo could easily so it and then some. He'll bitch slap this league

Zlatan scored 28 for us, in a season he missed the last month, in a season we missed an exceptional amount of chances, and in a season where i'd have to check, but would be surprised if it wasn't the, if not one of the lowest goals per games we've seen in 20 years.

It's not inconceivable Ronaldo would have smashed Ibra's total last year, let alone with us being stronger next year
 
So, Ronaldo can actually do no wrong then eh?

What? Read the rest of the thread. I actually defend your club against Ronaldo and Mendes :wenger: I said he must take responsability for his actions and trusting Mendes. Although your club are no saints according to what @Adisa wrote, i consider Ronaldo to have the majority of the blame. I was merely pointing out that your wishes during parts of the last season can finally come true.
 
40 pages of circle jerk and not one nugget of concrete.

It'd be one of the 3 biggest stories the media could hope for in England, which i'd list in no order as

1)Ronaldo coming back to us
2)Wenger winning the league again
3)Liverpool ending their huge time without the league

In this order? :)
 
Lol! Real feel Ronaldo is blackmailing them.

Sign up, they don't love you like I love you.
Ronaldo, they don't love you like I love you.

What's worse, is it blackmail or slavery?
Blackmail or slavery? Done for tax avoidance lately, now it's like slavery.

The first looks more probable than the other two.

Come on Sly, at least admit it that you're butthurt when we say something negative about Ronaldo. Apparently it's ok for everyone else to complain about him but not for Madrid fans.
 
Yes, it is. He is arguably the world's greatest player right now - With the levels of fitness we have come to expect from him, I wouldn't put it past him to carry on for 3-4 more years. He has scored 50 across all competitions in the last 7-8 seasons (except the last) - would expect him to score at least 30-40 goals. If RM had a choice, they would never sell.

Also think about his marketability you'd get that money back in no time. Firstly I'm pretty sure if he came back to United every united fan around the world would get a fresh Ronaldo shirt

Butthurt? Not really. I think you noticed that i barely post on the Ronaldo, Messi vs Ronaldo threads. This year i didn't really support Ronaldo because i was butthurt since he denied us a famous win at the Bernabéu for the CL. I only started rooting for him in the latter stages of the season. I only get butthurt with Sporting related stuff. It doesn't mean i don't get annoyed with Madrid fans for booing a player like him. Like i said i actually defended your club in this thread. Read up. I actually said Real Madrid shouldn't pay anything that isn't their responsability. And what i said about you it's factual. You wanted to trade Ronaldo for Hazard. Now i think that can happen. Aren't you happy?
 
So just seen this article being discussed on r/soccer - which sounds the most plausible in the situation. Below is the gist of the article. The actual article is in Spanish. Don't know if any of our resident Madrid fans have seen it, and if so, what they think about it?

El Mundo: "Cristiano is the latest Mendes customer to have tax problems. One of them, Falcao, has already pointed at Mendes as the perpetrator. Falcao abandoned Mendes, who now fears that Cristiano will do the same. To save himself, he started pulling the strings to blame Madrid and Spain instead."

He's 32. That's pretty much all I've got. I think you'd have to be pretty much insane to spend that type of money for someone entering the latter stage of his career. But I admit I don't know what the marketing effect would be if he came back.

And what you said to carvajal about who we're going to boo now?

Listen man, Ronaldo is a exceptional player but it doesn't mean we're only going to praise him 100% of the time or put up with his shit when he needs attention. Someone in this thread said that he probably wants to make this summer about him amidst all the Mbappe stuff as a joke, well the said thing us that it wouldn't surprise me if it was a factor in all this. Because it's what kind of man he is. Sad but true.
 
Ronaldo looks at how much Real make out of him.
Looks at how much the Spanish tax man wants to get from him.
Looks at how much United would be willing to pay him, especially because we are his first love, and most valuable club in the world.
Listens to Mendes.
Makes noise about wanting leave.
Waits for Real to inevitably shower him in euros. Or do they?
 
Don't come here with these sensible posts.. He will come and he will sell all the kits.. He stated he wanted to play well over 40.. So even then he will contribute more than Rooney does at 30...

I have to admit - bringing Ronnie in as our new Teddy Sheringham does tickle a little bit. But he's slow these days and getting a bit lazy. And the money - I guess it's not so difficult to raise ticket price 20%... I wouldn't mind. Ok - let's go for it.

I was just messing with Carvajal. He's on my followers list and i get along with him. I like his posting. It was merely a personal joke and not something like a criticism of Madrid fans.

I don't really believe about your theory about Mbappe. Why would he be annoyed with that after what he did for your League and CL win this? I'd point more to the fact that he is really fed up with Spain and Madrid fans. Cmon a player like him, with his numbers and achievements asking a bunch of spoiled fans not to whistle him? He alluded to that plenty of times during the season. There wasn't Mbappe rumours or talk about tax at the time. You understand that some journos are saying that he made up his mind about two months ago? I actually agree with him. You don't deserve him and both him and Madrid should move on. We know how Madrid treats their players. I mantain my credibility towards his Madrid move. Since the start i never wanted for him to move there.
 
If Zlatan could do it, Ronaldo could easily so it and then some. He'll bitch slap this league
Zlatan scored 28 for us, in a season he missed the last month, in a season we missed an exceptional amount of chances, and in a season where i'd have to check, but would be surprised if it wasn't the, if not one of the lowest goals per games we've seen in 20 years.

I don't think Ronaldo will play striker if he ever does come to United though. Zlatan was the absolute focal point of our attack and everything fell to him. Ronaldo off the wing, with Rashford, Mata etc around him instead of the Ozils, ADMs, James, Isco and Marcelo won't really get close to the same service and score 50 goals a season off the wing imo.

I don't think he's that bothered about the love or hate of fans. If he wanted to be permanently adored, he'd have stayed at United or actually come back one of the times it was possible to come back. He's quite the attention seeker and all this talk of Mbappe could have actually annoyed him. Also, with Messi getting a huge new deal, it's no surprise the annual "Ronaldo is leaving" rumors have picked up ahead of another contract renewal.
 
If he ever comes back, martial and Shaw could take a few notes with regards to application, but I think RashFord would take it up a notch just by training with him.

Ah yes a notable Ronaldo fan. Please show me links that support your Mbappe theory. Because i have plenty of links, articles and videos with him complaining about the treatment Madrid fans give him. Agree with your United part.
 
It's more than a fair price. As you already acknowledged, Ronaldo isn't any 32 year old, he's one the GOAT and is still delivering at the highest level. Couple that with other facts including that he's still got 4 years left on his contract and his sheer pull marketing wise, it's a fair price.

I have lost all touch with what's supposed to be fair. Sold to Madrid 8 years ago for 80 millz and we're supposed to buy him back now at 130. Seems crazy to me. But I suppose crazy is the way to go these days.
 
131 million pounds is a fair price for a 32 year old? I know he's special but for how long? Resale value most likely zero.

Who cares about his resale value?
He has got at least 3 more top seasons in his tank and if we win the league with him, money well spent
 
United don't buy players with the intention of eventually selling them anyway, so resale value is irrelevant.
 

Could be something in this. Wasn't Jose accused of something recently about taxes? I'm pretty sure he was.

Also, could explain why Mbappe's family don't want him representing Mbappe. No doubt Falcao would of told him to stay clear.

I'd throw my socks, bed and granny out the window if that happened.
