Yeah, it’s a pretty wild theory when talking about a player who lives for scoring goals. He is never going to not care about scoring, no matter his situation.
Exactly, it's like people don't see what kind of character Ronaldo is. He'll do anything for a goal in official games, just isn't as good at getting them as until recently. He'll never not care on the pitch. He thought Ole was the right man even though we were getting embarassed and for one reason - he scored lots of goals and was undroppable.

He's got a twitch on that left eye of his.
Inside he's dying.
Obviously not, it’s a wider observation. Saying something like camel shaggers is clearly xenophobic.
Is that for real? Hopefully they explain to him he’ll be a super sub if he goes to Newcastle. Actually I hope they don’t and it blows up in their face when he complains
Calling people camel shaggers is not a criticism of any regime. It's blatant racism.
I thought that case was settled. Although I will admit I don't know enough of the details behind it.
I recommend a Google search for Cristiano Ronaldo and Kathryn Mayorga and to do a bit of reading on it. The case may be settled in the courts but Ronaldo's own explanation of what happened is quite informative.
Happy new year
Morse code for "Me want to play in Champions League. Me want top club. Bayern send help".
Quite sure these clauses are made up on the spot by journalists. You don't pay 200m a year salary to promote your league only to loan him off in 6 month's time to another league where he'll be coming off the bench in the 80th min in place of Joelinton & Almiron. Even the Saudi's should be able to see he's not going to add value to the current Newcastle team and in fact will regress them back into the Championship.
ETH would leave us if he didn’t have a choice

His face is saying: I'm happy, happy, happy, happy New year!
I actually hope this happens - he'll take someone's spot in that frontline, be incredibly poor as usual while you'll see the collective form of the likes of Almiron and co take a nosedive. One potential contender set back 2 years (sometimes I reckon this is what City suckered us into).
Excellent.

Hmm that could be but Saudi is throwing a lot of money at a lot of different things right now in the entertainment world. I find it difficult to see how it will sustain myself. If they were in UEFA I could see it but you're at a disadvantage in Asia as is
Only pointing this out because I dont want this place (or thread) to become an echo chamber, but this is the only place where people laugh at him. Everywhere else it's just normal news.Ronaldo has become a laughing stock in the footballing world
Nah it's pretty much everywhere that I frequent (Reddit, Twitter, Facebook etc).
really? Seems fairly widespread from where I am
Yeah, it's brutal. This forum is actually quite mild and composed on comparison. You get the sense that people are a little more hurt in here because of the previous legend(debatable) status, though.
It's disbelief. Only thing funny is the fact that he had to backtrack on his own dreams.
He's 38 though. And over the hill.
No its not just that. People are laughing. Its what happens when egotistical scumbags don't get their way.
Well yeah it's disbelief due to the ridiculous events which have transpired (The interview etc) and people have a tendency to find ridiculous things amusing.
The idea is not to be sustainable, but to have expensive PR tools.
