how often has his shown this. Players bang on about respecting Mourinho as a coach and manager but thats about it. He's hardly come across as a Sir Alex type of man manager.

Halt the bullshit.

There's nothing to suggest, not a shred of evidence, that Mourinho is bad at man management. Almost every player swoons over his manager. He's not really had robihno or Tevez incidents, and he gets the best out of his players.

If there is a problem with Ronaldo, Mou will fix it.

Completely false and there is overwhelming evidence this is not the case at all.

Bollocks, Ferguson has fallen out with numerous players, even recently. It's a bit like the nonsense about Ferguson being able to revive players career when he's virtually never even done that. He's an excellent manager but it's not like he's better than everyone else at everything a manager can do.

Wrong, obviously. Mourinho can be a bit of a dick to the outside, but he's always there for his players. It's part of his job and he does it meticulously. Very few, if any, players have come out against Mourinho, which is surprising considering the number of clubs with big egos that he managed already.

He even goes to length of making himself look a bit of a fool by saying stuff like "Ibrahimovic is the best player in the world".
 
Hmmm...can he be depressed?

He doesn't seem like the type of person who typically suffers from depression. I mean he's extremely confident and has everything he ever wanted (except his father). He's also very close to home and family.

I guess the only problem I could see is if he is being under appreciated at Madrid. I wouldn't be surprised though. The management there is a shambles.

Anybody can suffer from depression. end of story.

I agree he does go to great lengths not only for his players but also for the club he manages


At Porto he was always non-committal about his future..Porto fans would have greatly disliked him for that thinking how can he be so disrespectful.But look at it for what it really was..there was no emotional deceiving.He knew he wouldn't get the same love that every manager wants but did so anyway because he knew the opposite of that-what AVB did would cause more pain and anger.It takes great guts to do this on the world stage.You can tell how much of a betrayal it was when AvB left.

Inter fans also disliked how unattached he was during their CL win but Jose probably couldn't bring himself to fake that emotion, he was true to the Inter and Porto fans.

Says there they would offer Ronaldo 20 million per year. Could it be bollocks? That would dismantle the "theory" that they're trying to comply with FFP I think.

IF City have allowed FFP to affect their spending (other theories exist) then I think they'd make a big exception for Ronaldo without a second thought.

Not only would they be getting arguably the best player in the world, but they'd also really, really piss us off - and however much happens to City, however much they change and develop as a club, pissing us off will always be irresistible.

I'm positive they would do what it takes to get him and hang the consequences.

That is true and because of that he is a lot more respected at Porto than AVB is.

Perhaps they thought (and maybe they were right) that UEFA would never have the guts to leave a Manchester City with Ronaldo out of the CL. They'd probably brush it over with a fine.

Especially since the consequences probably won't get past paying a fine if they can't comply with FFP.

The only teams the FFP will really hit are smaller teams that have financial troubles and no rich owner to even the books.

And yes of course they would break the bank to bring in Ronaldo or Messi for that matter.

If one of those two became available and you got the money to do the deal it's pretty much a no brainer that they will try to get the deal done.
 
Watched all his goals for us last night on youtube. Jesus, he really did score some stunners didn't he? Even in his debut season, he scored some absolute beauties. He was destined for greatness.

I'm convinced he won't join City. He has too much respect for us fans and Fergie to ever go behind our backs like that. I'm sure Ronnie realises that we adored him; an admiration that isn't comparable with many other players.

I actually don't think he'll finish his career at Madrid. My, potentially delusional, prediction is that he'll return to us or return to Portugal. He has too much quality to drop leagues for money.

I strongly doubt that.

Usually players don't really care about these things if the paycheck is right and a move to City would probably make him the best payed footballer in the world.

People really need to lose that illusion that there are many footballers that really and deeply care about things like club rivalry or feel that they owe their former teams or fans anything in that regard.

Players like Scholes and Giggs are extremely rare and Ronaldo sure as hell isn't one of them.
 
Well I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. I really don't think Ronnie would ever go to City. I honestly don't.
 
I don't see why people are expecting him to leave. He's just throwing a bit of strop like he always does.

If and when he does leave Madrid, I would could see PSG going for him or AC Milan. And City and Chelsea of course. I'm sure Ronnie is a bit of a United fanboy, but I'll think he'll go to whatever club and offer him the best money and chance to win big trophy's.
 
I love Cristiano, but the man is an egoist.

His next stop after conquering England and Spain will be Italy, it seems to me, to set records there in his declining years.

He wont go to italy - it's less attractive than ever and they wont afford him. If he leaves madrid he ll go to england.
 
No way will we fork out a big enough transfer fee though.

Probably not (well almost certainly not) but we do have the advantage of dealing from £ to €, so the exchange rate helps - it would probably cost us less today in £ to pay Real back the amount they spent in € back in 2009 then it cost Real in £ back then.
 
Might need a cheeky new share release to bring him back. If only.
 
Jose Mourinho has ruled out the prospect of Cristiano Ronaldo leaving Real Madrid for the likes of Manchester City or Paris St-Germain by claiming the world’s best players will only play for "historic" clubs.

Former Manchester United forward Ronaldo sparked speculation about his future with the Spanish champions at the weekend by claiming he was “sad” and “not happy” at the Bernabeu.

While Ronaldo’s comments are believed to be a veiled warning to the club over the lack of progress on talks over a new contract, his remarks have prompted links to the likes of City, PSG and Anzhi Makhachkala – hugely wealthy clubs capable of affording the £80 million striker.

City, who play Real in the Champions League later this month, are understood to have no interest in signing Ronaldo, but PSG and Anzhi have yet to rule themselves out of a world record move for the 27 year-old.

Yet Mourinho, who transformed Chelsea with the funds of billionaire owner Roman Abramovich, has dismissed the new wave of benefactor-funded clubs by insisting the top players will always want to play for the established elite.

“Madrid, Barca, Bayern ... these clubs have unique historic capital,” Mourinho said. “The trophies, the European Cups, the history, the fans. Things you cannot buy with money.

“The best players will want to be at these clubs, the three I have mentioned, and some others who have trophy cabinets full for almost a century. That is a determining factor for the players.

“We have the potential and history to keep our best players, Cristiano Ronaldo, Iker Casillas, Karim Benzema, Gonzalo Higuain. Everyone in our squad, Barca, too.

“But clubs which live just from the investments of their owners will not have it so easy, because they do not have the structures of the historic clubs.

“In that way, Financial Fair Play will be good for football. There will be difficulties for clubs which are not well structured, although they have wallets full of money.

“Madrid’s structures are well prepared for this, and we can enter successfully into the new era.”

:lol: What a crap article. jojojo posted the entire interview:

Interviewer's question -
How are clubs like Madrid and Barcelona, whose ownership is divided between thousands of members, going to compete with the rise of teams sponsored by Russian millionaires or Arab sheikhs who can invest without limits? Will they be able to keep their stars?

Answer

Madrd, Barça, Bayern... these clubs have a unique element, which is their historic value. That can't be bought with money. Titles, European Cups, the development, the history, the fans: money isn't the answer for these things. And the best players want to be at these teams, at these three that I've mentioned and at some others that have had full trophy cabinets for a long, long time. This is still a determining factor for the players.

You also have to take into account that changes to FIFA's Financial Fair Play regulations are just around the corner. And Platini says he's going to be strict about them. They'll put restrictions in place and the problems will be for the clubs that aren't well-structured, even though they might have the coffers full of money. Talking about Madrid, which is my club and which I know, the structures are prepared for this, and we'll be fine in this next chapter. Real Madrid has the potential and the history to hold on to the best - to players like Cristiano, Casillas, Benzema, Higuaín. Like everyone in our squad. Barça, the same. But the clubs that live solely off the investments of their owners won't have it so easy, because they'll meet difficulties not being structured like the historic ones. The Financial Fair Play regulations will be good for football.


This has been converted into Ronaldo will not join the money brigade. Assholes
