Should I make him my FF captain?
"Everyone is very happy to have him back, the mood has been very good. We are looking forward to Saturday of course."

Sancho Available! McT, Telles close.
How much of a lift can Ronaldo give the rest of the squad?
"I wasn't confused when I spoke to you, you were confused, I was quite happy at that moment but couldn't say everything.
"Cristiano coming back in, just the way he's conducted himself this week, we know what he's achieved in his career but he wants to achieve more, he puts demands, he's lived his life with the discipline of a top prof, ever since I came here he was the first one who did preparation well, every day 45 mins before the training session and we started looking at this kid and he'll have an effect on all of the players.
"We've grown as a group the last few years, the determination, desire focus, bit by bit like bringing Rapahel (Varane) in, he's brought a winner's mentality, there's no place to hide with winners like them, you can't go in 95% focused, it's been great having him in."

Is Presser our new midfielder?
Fred ban latest
"They're all training. Dean (Henderson) has not got the after-effect and tiredness anymore, that's very positive. (Alex) Telles is not 100 per cent yet, still a few weeks and Scott (McTominay) has recovered very quickly from the operation. He's probably not gonna play, depending on who we've got available and can use.
"Jadon's (Sancho) come back in with a minor knock but is determined to play, to be fit, he's available, that's a positive. Cristiano's trained all week, we didn't get anyone injured in internationals, not a lot of recoveries but they will be available, I think."

Yep, first name "Button".
How does Ronaldo fit in now?
"Everyone evolves and develop throughout their career, Cristiano is a different player to one who left but he's in such good nick still and will be looking in next few years to play and score as many goals as he can but also to be on the end of crosses and he's added something extra.
"We don't have his skill set in the team, the mix, no one has really. He is one of the best players that's ever played the game."

Some bit of ruthlessness there.
@Sassy Colin what are the questions? Why are you using different formats? You're even worse than @horsechoker at this.
How to deal with dynamic of managing a superstar?
"That's fine. We've got mutual respect for each other, who cannot have but he knows I've got to make the decisions when to play, when not to play, it's my job to manage him and we get the best out of him, I wanna see the best out of Cristiano and that comes from communication.
"We spent a few years together at the club, we know each other, he doesn't need me to tell him what to do, he's already had determination and desire to be the best and he's the one I've seen that's prepared and taken steps he needed to.
"Ryan Giggs played until 40 and I'm not gonna be surprised if Cristiano ends up with the same age as Ryan."

If you got your act together, we wouldn't be in this mess. At least I got the awful photo right, eh, eh?
How did he persuade Cavani to give up No.7 shirt?
So no Scott and no Fred. I don't think Donny and Matic have looked good in partnership. A bit worrying it has to be said. On the flip side, I would expect Mejbri to be on the bench.
Question is, is it Matic and Pogba or Donny and Pogba. Would expect the former.

Has anyone asked him If legends walk alone?
How has Ronaldo evolved as a player?
Obviously Ole's talking about training which is different to games.
Some of us have to sponge off the state for a living!
Why would he talk about training, and why should we care if he hits the target in training when he doesn't do it in games? I'm sure Fred hits the target in training too.
Yeah somebody ask Ronnie if he walks alone, we need to know.
So you think he's talking about the games he's watched him play for Juve and is just telling outrageous lies?
I know which I think is more believable.
That's exactly what I think. He thinks Ronaldo hits the target from outside the box in games. I don't think he's lying, he just doesn't know.
Ok he's a clueless moron so. Ffs
Who gives a toss about such a throwaway comment? Ridiculously petty.
Any relation to Trouser?
Shame Ole didn't check stats site before answering that question.
Hyperbole is a dangerous game on the internet.
Well this thread escalated quickly.
Exactly.
He’s obviously talking about training and you don’t have to care. I also doubt he’s used a spreadsheet to come up with that 99 out of 100 stat.
You lot get funny over the weirdest things sometimes.
We need this guy, it seems:
Mickson must be fun at parties
The greatest player of all time, better than Pele, better than Maradona, better than Messi is about to play for us tomorrow. Absolutely buzzing, what a moment.
