Sometimes I guess you've just got to look at the bigger picture and do what's best for the club. Jeering Ronaldo from the stands will do nothing for player, or team morale. I'm sure SAF has a watchful eye on Ronaldo, but he also recognises his immense talents, and has probably left character concerns at the back door for the greater good of the club. One motive being for the future and stability of the club, and second; to stand strong against the advances made by Real.

Most are in agreement that Ronaldo acted out-of-line. But players these days live completely different lives to what footballers used to. A dream world if you like. Can you actually imagine what it would be like to earn £120,000 a week? It's the same answer to 99 out of 100 questions in this day and age; money.

I think it's important to sit back from the situation and realise that the game has changed. The influx of foreign players has brought both pros and cons. It will always be atypical finding fidelity in foreign footballers at your club. I would just be thankful that you support such a big club, because you’re unlikely to ever face an Englishman turning his back on your club in pursuit of greater heights, and you're more likely to hold onto a foreign star than a club like Tottenham.

Fans will always be loyal, players won't.
