Incredible. I bet Real are sick they didn't just give him what he wanted.
I hope we avoid them in the QFs.

Think he meant "home, we smash them".I cant believe Ronaldo actually said "hope we smash them"
This.Think he meant "home, we smash them".
Rio.Has to be Rio or Evra. They always tell us story about Ronaldo.
What?Unfortunately or fortunately, you are insufferable; you can also go to the messi thread where your other fanboys are.
Damn! I'm sick and tired of this kind of people...
I wish I was half as much of an oeefoectioper as Cristiano.You have to be a self absorbed narcissist to be as good and as dedicated as he is to anything. A normal person can't be this bothered about being this much of a oeefoectioper. The man is 34, at his age most players don't really give a feck, their legacy is set. He still applies himself like his 22. Not just a phenomenal footballer, phenomenal human.
What?
Get back to the newbies
I was wondering, if Ole was our manager in the summer and we had the feel-good factor in the club, would he have joined us?Glazers sign him up!!
Wait was he dropped?Recalled to the Portugal NT for the upcoming matches.
Rested in the last 2 international breaks.Wait was he dropped?
No, he wanted to focus on getting settled in Italy I gather.Wait was he dropped?
Oh my fecking god that is brilliant.Goatmorning fellas

Sums everything up.Patrice Evra has told told fellow pundits on ITV's 2018 FIFA World Cup podcast that if you are invited over to Cristiano Ronaldo's house, you should say no.
The West Ham United defender, who played alongside Ronaldo at Old Trafford, told fellow guests on the broadcaster's podcast that he was left hugely unsatisfied after the invite, and that the Portuguese star was more keen to train than to eat.
"He said, 'Patrice, come over after training.' I went. You know I was really tired, [and] at the table there was only salad and plain white chicken so I was like, okay - and water - not any juice," Evra said. "And we started eating and I was thinking some big meat would be coming after that but there was nothing."
"He just finished and he stood up and he started playing with a ball, doing some skills and he said, 'Let's do some two-touch'."
On the same podcast, Evra also recounted a tale of just how competitive Ronaldo is, even off the pitch, using a story about the time the Real Madrid forward lost a game of table tennis to former Manchester United centre-back Rio Ferdinand.
"They were playing table tennis and Rio beat him and we were all screaming and Ronaldo was so upset," Evra revealed. "He trained for two weeks at home and he came back and he beat Rio in front of everyone. That’s Cristiano Ronaldo."
Oh my fecking god that is brilliant.
Unfortunately you have to worry about him when the day comes for him to retire. What will he find to replace that.You have to be a self absorbed narcissist to be as good and as dedicated as he is to anything.

Bing translate said it’s Fat Thumbs for perfectionist.Oeefoectioper. Oeefoectioper.
Someone please explain this to me.
Think he's developed a lot in that area, judging by his behaviour on the pitch. He used to be very frustrated and grim on the pitch but he's not like that anymore, at least not to the same level. You have his occasional meltdowns like when he was sent off recently but apart from that there is far less lamenting, getting annoyed by team mates and overall egocentricity. When you compare him to his younger self you recognize he's changed a lot. Him not taking free kicks anymore, celebrating more when one of his team mates scores and simply being okay with not being the end of every attack of his team shows that, too. Guess the step to move from Madrid to Turin has also done quite a lot. He behaves differently at Juventus and seems be on much better terms with everyone.Unfortunately you have to worry about him when the day comes for him to retire. What will he find to replace that.
I've never been in those dressing rooms but it's easy to tell things work very differently in Madrid than they do in Turin.Think he's developed a lot in that area, judging by his behaviour on the pitch.

Is your phone OK?Is Ronaldo the greatest oeefoectioper of all time? Or is it Messi? We should have a thread.
I don't think the politics are a big deal when you are Ronaldo in Madrid and are pally with the other biggest players. Rather the press and fans that will get on your nerves, perhaps especially since he grew up professionally at United where he always got support from the fans. The Real Madrid stadium fans are far from the best fans you could have and the press loves to create drama. Anyone would be happier being rid of all that.I've never been in those dressing rooms but it's easy to tell things work very differently in Madrid than they do in Turin.
The politics inside the Madrid dressing room are more complex than anywhere else. It's always been a circus.
True. Spanish media are horrible, didn't treat him fairly in the slightest. Not just him but most high profile non-spanish players. I actually think that Madrid fans being deemed as demanding and unfair is a direct result of the way the media scapegoats players and really attacks them in a way it doesn't really happen anywhere else.I don't think the politics are a big deal when you are Ronaldo in Madrid and are pally with the other biggest players.

The Ronaldo that's been playing for Juve couldn't be further away from the egocentric primadonna Ronaldo that showed up often for Madrid, he geniunely seems happy there. I'm sure a big part of it is him getting older and being a father but the dressing room seems more together than in Madrid, the fans seem less bipolar than in Madrid and the media seems a lot fairer than in Madrid.
IT’S ALWAYS THE PHONEIs your phone OK?
I think I mean more along the lines of what we will he find to dedicate his life to. When his life is no longer consumed by football what will he focus on.Think he's developed a lot in that area, judging by his behaviour on the pitch.

So I think he'll be finde and make his peace when he inevitably retires. Of course, doing anything of competitive nature with him will always be a pain in the ass. Imagine playing board games with him
Sorry mate, knowing about registas and xG doesn't cut it these days. We've moved on to the next level.Is your phone OK?
I think he’s got plenty of investments to keep an eye on and you can bet your life that he’ll work hard, even in retirement, to stay as fit as possible Not to mention a load of kids!I think I mean more along the lines of what we will he find to dedicate his life to. When his life is no longer consumed by football what will he focus on.
For sure!! Especially with Mike P there too, just like the old daysI was wondering, if Ole was our manager in the summer and we had the feel-good factor in the club, would he have joined us?
