United and Sir Alex made him what he was a couple of years ago.
Champions League Varane has finally got a replacement in my head.
This is a solid point. Going to a rival to directly compete and possible hinder their chances of winning titles. When the Manager/Club that brought you up will 100% see it as sacrilege.
Ronaldo only celebrates himself, so it's all okay.Yeah he really kept his celebrations in check
A Tier 1/2 source.
Because you're on the shitty end of this one and the good end of the those other examples, that's why it feels wrong.Man City is a different deal.
Leeds, Liverpool, Arsenal...Man City just feels dirty as hell. Filthy. I'd also say that those players you've mentioned weren't considered legends for their clubs previously (maybe Owen?). They were good, no doubt.
It just feels really wrong.
the likes of Ronaldo don’t care about United even a fraction as much as you and I sadly

Agent Ronaldo disrupting City's settled team, absolute genius.
Rooney can't talk, he was on the verge of quitting Utd for City himself and held the club to ransom to stay...
I hope that shirt is covered in petrol otherwise Holy feck is that flammable!
His fans acted like he was here for 12 years and having the club at heart. He moved on as soon as he could and people forgot how he acted and what ge said. Amazing player, amazing that he played for this club, but thats about it. Now that he considers City just shows what it is now for him.
We should check the overlap between them and the "Messi should play for Barcelona for free" brigade
Some of you are blinded by fanboyism.
He's not the right profile for us right now from a footballing PoV - age, position, wages. To be honest I don't think he fits Pep's way either.
United were relegated regardless if Law scored or not, he was just doing his job. Law was also visibly upset and refused to celebrate the goal he scored against us. He didn't push to leave United he was offloaded by the club after becoming injury prone. You are comparing 2 completely different sets of circumstances.
Then asked to be substituted because he was so upset. United were relegated regardless

Probably, most certainly. If it were Chelsea/Arsenal/Spurs though...I think the dagger would feel less painful.
our rivalries with those clubs is bigger than the manufactured rivalry with City. People are up in arms about it because City is a force these days and we have that has-been glow to us. Hopefully bagging a few trophies will go a way at remediating that. But ultimately, I think the uproar is rooted in United being synonymous with “Manchester” and success for so long, but these days it feels like things are going more and more the other way. City signing Ronaldo, even at his age, makes it feel like United is finished out here, but I’m sure we’ll be alright.Man City is a different deal.

facts
Imagine Woody waking up, cold sweating in the middle of the night. He sits off the edge of his bed, his held head in his arms. His wife leans over, gently caressing his shoulder, and whispers, "Edward, what's wrong?" He turns around, eyes wide, face pale as if he had just seen the devil himself, and replies, "I can't let this happen. I know what I must do." He gets off the bed, grabs his phone and heads to his office, calls Mendes, with no regard for the time of night, and says, "What do you need to make this move happen?"
Got to wonder if pep is leaving because he doesn’t want Ronaldo.
He'll get thw other half in the usual Man City way.
I'd be disgusted if we bought Ronaldo. He's exactly the type of disruptive Woodward signing we don't need. Could briefly be a cherry on the cake for City, but he'd be the antithesis of building a new team. If United wanted Ronaldo, he'd be at United. We don't and there's no reason to wet the bed about it. Few places his final paycheck makes sense, City is one of them. Couldn't care less.
That's not right at all.
Yesterday I felt it would be an unnecessary signing, but after hearing about Cavani missing out quite a few games + considering his record with injuries i'm getting second thoughts.
14m euros net…what was he on at juve?
Looks like Nani has vanished.
