You can't just be good at your job. You have to come across as being a team guy in the interviews he watches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChipButty Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 A plane will fly over Old Trafford with Viva Ronaldo - Welcome Home on it. Ronaldo will score a hattrick within 65 minutes. He'll get subbed for either Cavani or Martial and every. single. soul. in the vicinity of Old Trafford will stand up, clap, and sing his song. The camera will pan over to Sir Alex. He'll be all smiles while trying to discreetly wipe away a tear in his eye. This single game will be worth paying the £50mil. over two years in wages. Nobody will care about that. Ever. We got to see him back at Old Trafford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BangrakBob Posted September 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 7, 2021 14 hours ago, RickG16 said: So of all the players you could blame for Juve not winning the league, you blame the league's top goalscorer...? Explain that logic. The point being he won't have the impact many are expecting. The Second Coming was not quite The Stone Roses. I think Steven Gerrard summed it up best: “I think Cristiano Ronaldo will not make the same impact to the Premier league as he did in the past. I think he wanted to move away from Juventus to get the media headlines back to him. This is because all the eyes were on Messi since the day he won Copa America and moving to Paris Saint-Germain, it’s just a marketing strategy from him and his agent because they know once he is off the picture, it will also affect his Ballon d’Or chances, in which I think he still doesn’t have a chance to win it this year.” 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if Ronaldo does have a drop off this season, again he's 36. I don't know why everyone is so uncomfortable with admitting this guy is one of the best of all time. He's already made history with us. Anything he can offer now is a (very expensive) bonus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you can compare scoring for Juve in Serie A with the EPL either. I think the fact Ronaldo has so much experience at winning trophies that will be his best contribution, in the sheds, in training, half-time, around the camp fire. That said he doesn't come across like a person who would care to share too much, and his last effort outside of Real Madrid ended a 9 year title streak. in-fact I might throw a fiver on you finishing outside the top 4.

I am not saying he is going to transform this United team. We still have concerns about midfield etc.... but can we please stop talking like this guy is past it, because there is nothing yet to suggest that is the case. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
