Laughable take especially when Messi publicly quit on his country.
No he is most certainly not. They are polar opposites. David Icke would be the UK Alex Jones.
So we now have a chance v Barca
Ronaldo can say what he wants. Has City ever said that? I just don't see it - Pep doesn't do superstars and individuals at all. Especially one that doesn't work hard off the ball. It's the same as the Pogba going to City story, really hard to believe
Gonna laugh at ya when he goes back to Sporting and plays like shit.
This seems like fiction – is there any indication of this having happened?
What false rumours? It is well known he was being hawked around Europe by Mendes looking for a transfer.
He's playing with the fans with some of the comments.
the man himself has literally said in interview Fergie said you cant go city
That's expecting too much from someone. He's just a person who happened to be excellent at football and a hard worker. He's nothing more than that.
We'll have to wait and watch the whole thing, but i think that this one somewhat got lost in the translation.
Didn’t the club defend him through the press when he didn’t show up for pre-season?
And he’d look a right dickhead if Pep gets asked in his next interview and says “no, we were never interested”.
He just said it. Unless you think he would lie about the health of his child or on his child’s name after just losing one ? As a parent that would be utterly insane to play with your child’s health like that which I highly doubt he did.
He’s talking about the so called “lack of compassion” from ETH.
The club yes. Especially in a time where the rumors were he wanted out the club but the club didn’t want that to be the case.

Yes exactly. I don’t see why he would randomly decide to say that if their was not some truth to it.
Ronaldo wasn't scapegoated for performances last season any more than other players at United. In fact, he was largely given considerably more leeway when he performed poorly because on the whole his goalscoring was still decent and he was also very popular amongst United fans in general.
Because he’s a narcissist who is aiming to portray Cristiano Ronaldo in the best way possible, so throwing his boss under the bus in the hope that it will turn fans onto his own side.
Looks like Woy Hodgson.
Because he’s throwing a strop to leave the club. He’s literally going scorched earth on everything possible but sticking a few little nuggets in there like giving out about the Glazers to try keep his fanboys onside and garner sympathy. We let him take the whole summer off, he requested a transfer before even meeting ETH, but yeah it’s definitely the managers lack of compassing. It’s so incredibly transparent I’m embarrassed people aren’t seeing right through it.
I do think a lot of fans in here have a fragile ego and he was definitely made a scapegoat by a tangible portion of the fanbase and media. I initially thought it was a bad move for him but then as the season went on I thought he was doing better than I had expected. Anyway now it's prettt obvious it was a bad move for both parts but I don't think he's as egoistical as people make out of him, otherwise he would had ended at City were it would be easier for him to continue padding his stats.
The issues were and are well-documented prior to his signing for the club. Again, I would say he's just trying to win over the fans by highlighting the problems we fans had concerns about over many years. It would be ignorant on our part to think he cares about anything but himself. He was fine signing a fat contract and taking the money whilst he knew the ownership issues existed and a lack of investment in the clubs facilities.
Except Thats all assumptions you have said without any basis of proof especially since his track record shows he has never done this before and most of the time the stuff he says are true.
Being on the bench, and not being brought on is likely the crux of this devastating ordeal
It's that simple, really.
Ten Hag didn't say a bad word about him in his press conferences throughout that circus when Ronaldo was by all reports desperate to leave and refusing to train.
I think it’s a stretch to suggest Ronaldo may have done nothing wrong at all here. Not just in this interview but since he returned.
??? Bastian did nothing like Ronaldo has done, as he was just shunted out of the team for no particular reason by Mourinho. And Mourinho actually owned up to his mistake by drafting Bastian back into the side again and played him.
From the same guy who posted himself naked in a sauna for millions people to see during that period?
Of course.
