That was my joke, nevermind. I used to play a game when I was a kid and they had no licenses so wet get things like David Beecham and Bryan Riggs from the Trafford Stadium.
You’re welcome sweety.
Because it comes across like an excuse, few days before the tour news broke he wants out and then he has personal reasons to not be on tour.
While he was training in Lisbon by himself, posting photos of his body (wanker), and his agent whoring him around without any takers.
Sir Alex is probably there so they can spin it that Ronaldo u-turned on his decision after talking with him, when in reality he just has no options.
Feels as though it's all coming to a head today. Expecting news by the evening one way or the other from journalists.
Yeah because a woman modelling in panties precludes her from mourning the recent death of her child. Such a disgusting and off base opinion. Jesus H Christ. Even for the caf that is bad.
Like I said, cnuts.
How do you know?
How do you know the loss of a child hasn't triggered some decisions from him about what he wants to do with the time he has left in the game?
I don't care if he wants to leave, it makes no difference to my life. We all know he has a a big ego. But people making out like the loss of his child only a few months ago has nothing to do with anything surrounding his absence or decision making and that it's all about Ronaldo are cnuts.
aww if you're that gullible i've got some magic beans for sale if you're interested.People just change their opinions to suit whatever narrative they have in the moment. Most had him as our player of the year by a while in the POTS thread (although not saying much).
It's pure disrespect for the club fans that neither ETH nor Ronaldo are tweeting anything live about their discussions
Instead of being an irrational emotional bell…calm down mate.
Does the loss of his child suddenly trigger a desire to want to move to a club in the champions league?
Funnily someone mourning a child does not always involve them sitting in a dark room and weeping 24 hours a day.
His agent is looking for another club because he wants to leave.
I think it's very fair to imagine that when the season finished and he had the time to reflect he felt very overwhelmed and that played a huge part in him not coming on tour. It isn't like he hasn't gone on pre-season tours with us whilst he was angling for a move before.
Everyone knows Ronaldo is one of the most driven and ambitious people in football. Why on earth would he want to stay when our response to finishing 6th is so..... well let's say long term, to be kind.
He's 37 with little time left and more records to break. It's best for us all if he moves on.
No animosity from me. We should all have known what we were getting.

He's not, hence why no top clubs are interested in signing him.
Really feel like this is not a big a deal as people make it out to be. Either way let’s get on with the season.
Him being photographed taking Mendes with him on his return to training is 2 fingers to the club. This should all be managed behind closed doors.
Ronaldo will walk out today without the 25% reduction and probably a new raise on top of that.
Is this a fact. Squad got a 25% reduction due to not having qualified for CL? No way
Agreed. Let’s get rid of him and get on with the season.
Letting him leave on a free would be a win for United. Hes not able to play the system of the manager, no pressing possible. He will cause huge trouble if not playing. That means he has to leave at all costs. If this means you let him leave on a free and get rid of the wages its a win, might even be worth paying part of his wages....
Just don't bother with them mate. You can tell from the level of emotional maturity and empathy that you're literally arguing with twelve year olds. I stopped a while back.
Agree.
Plus, isn't this similar to how it played out eventually at Juve ?
A very likely outcome. Along with a commitment a few quid to be spent on better players.
Not if he goes to a top 4 rival in Chelsea who seem pretty desperate right now
That would be an absolute disaster for team morale if Ronaldo walks out with a raise.
It probably isn't but this is part of the Ronaldo package. Having one of the most famous football players ever, someone who transcends the sport itself, just means everything is a big deal.
I think this is it as well, would explain why Fergie turned up almost a hour after Ronaldo tbh.
He's 15 goals ahead of Messi in the CL, but Messi will have 2 more seasons at least in the CL...this is the shit Ronaldo will be thinking about
I don’t see why we’re desperate for him to stay, bringing in Sir Alex etc. Fair enough if he can’t get a club and we’re stuck with him for another year but he’s actually doing us a favour. I get the feeling we just don’t want to replace him this summer.
He and Mendes made it a big deal, tbf.

Yeah, that's the question.
If this was ten years ago, it would make sense: do whatever it takes to keep an incredible asset at the club.
Now, though? Does Arnold think Ronaldo is an incredible asset?
(And in what way?)
He doesn't give a shit about better players, he just wants to play in the CL to keep stretching his goal record.
His personal gain is all he cares about. He will leave whether on loan or a transfer.
Well the latest CR7 is 37, if people doesn’t think Pele was top 3 player at age 37, doesn’t mean they don’t admire Pele higher over his career.
ETH probably does want Ronado to to stay , but I sure he could do without all the circus building up around it.
He is a very hands on manager/coach so I suspect he would much prefer to be on the training pitch working with players and concentrating 100% on that rather than in a boardroom dealing with want away players and agents , club officials etc , and then fielding countless press questions about those meetings.
Whatever the outcome I hope it is sorted today or as quick as possible and this circus does not drag on for another few weeks.

I wouldn't be too fussed if it wasn't a position in which we're so short in. The season is a little more than a week away and we currently only have Martial who is comfortable playing as a striker. It's important we sort this out quickly so we can sign a replacement if he does want to go.
This really isn’t about the money as shown by him happy to take a pay cut to join another champions league club and oh turning down £250m for 2 years from Saudi. The best outcome is that we trigger that extra year but loan him out to Atletico for next year, then have him back for one last year under ETH. The best outcome from this mess. If only we had got top 4 last season ffs.
SAF is probably just there to get his suit fitted.
