I don't doubt that for a second. Having Joel Glazer as the chief decision maker is like having one of the twats at RAWK running the club.

Is he actually highly lucrative in the short term?
I was thinking that, the guy was bragging about being the most followed person on Instagram with 500m followers, so not even 1% of his followers care enough to watch this "most explosive interview EVER!"
I'm assuming loads of that are media related people trying to get a story too.
These footballers think way too much of themselves.
Instagram followers are largely bots and he or the company managing his social media likely purchased a fair share of them.
Edit: The engagement rate of his instagram is 0.93%.
Also, the video has only had 2.2m views. Look, it's 2m more than most of his videos, but if you're going to brag about a stat, at least make sure it's not one which can be fact-checked with a couple of clicks.
Really? I didn't think that he would lie about that.

Yup they are very much my thoughts also.
While there’s absolutely no doubt that Phelan was a key lieutenant to SAF (whatever some people choose to believe) I think it’s pretty clear that he was mainly involved on the admin and HR side. It was thus unfortunate that when the club brought him back he was put into a far more football-focused role. I suppose Woodward’s belief was that some of the SAF magic would have stuck to him, regardless of the role he had been in.
Man City also lie about their bloody sponsorships for God’s sake.
Another one flushed out
Always thought Messi was the better player now seems hes the better person aswell oh deery me
Having watched it, a lot of what he said isn't wrong. He's just using the wrong platform.
Still has to be given the boot.

Is this a serious post? Are you a real person?
We all know the truth about Glazers, club and stuff.
He's not the person to say anything about the club, he's not an example. He used to be a great player, he's just an average player right now. He has become a moaner, a bad loser.
He wants to leave the club, doesn't respect anyone, thinks he's bigger than anyone, and then expects all the people to bend the knee to him. He's ego and selfishness is exceptional.
The interview is nothing but pure sh*t, with Piers making way for him to look good.
100% particularly given a club like Chelsea lacks market penetration in much of Asia which is where he and Lim have been targeting in particular.

It was reported at the time he was never close and used them to smoke us out.
Ronaldo is a liar.
Him saying he does not respect the manager is not wrong?
Him thinking football should only be played to suit his style is not wrong?
Him saying "I could have joined City" then saying he loves United fans is not wrong?
If he hadnt gone off on Ten Hag, this interview wouldnt have been an issue.
A lot of what he says is absolutely true regarding the club. A lot of it is the voice of someone who is far removed from reality.
He does come off as incredibly thin skinned for someone who claims negativity motivates him.

What is the truth?
I'm still wondering how they managed to find a studio big enough to fit their egos in.
Sure it was.
How? On the short term you won't get new commercial deals, shirt sales are stable they are not particularly affected by new players regardless of who they are what happens is that the new signings replace current players "sales". Also shirt sales aren't highly lucrative and represent less than Ronaldo's wage. And finally players like Ronaldo lucrativeness is in their ablity to make your team successful, that's where the money is, that's how you get added broadcasting and added cash through prize money.
Also it's extremely important to remember two things, most shirts that people see are fake especially outside of Europe and a large amount of people watch games illegally. Clubs do not get short term revenues from these things.
It's true the video only has 2.2 million views
What a joke. They're outdoing each other for Guinness World Record for the amount of bullshit spread on the internet

Of course he's happy. Everyone is talking about him.
He might not know he’s lying. The agency could have exaggerated City interest to inflate his ego.
It's well known they didn't want to pay a transfer fee for him.
He didn't have any option except United but made it look like he signed out of love for the club and SAF.
That vid has 2.3M views right now but you're forgetting the restream vid that has 2.7M so 5M total, he's not lying.It's true the video only has 2.2 million views

Are you stupid or naive?
Do you know any different? No you don’t so go away!
For what it's worth I never really believed they were keen on him.
You really believe that shit?
The body is like a beautifully sculpted Greek statue (it plays like one these days too) but his face isn't quite right. It has all the correct 'mathematical' symmetry and it should be good-looking but it really lacks character and soul. I don't think it's the plastic surgery either, I think he's always had that kind of look.
I can't believe i'm now onto to aesthetics
So assuming after the 2nd part of the interview tonight, will the club act before he plays in the world cup?
Be great if ETH doesn't have to deal with this in December when players return. He can focus on rest of season without this gobshite around the building.

To be honest this is only a good thing in my opinion.
He has shone a light on the Glazers and also ensured that he'll never play for us again.
Definitely not watching the interview though.
