He might honestly not know anymore and be advised poorly by people with their own interests. It's difficult to tell his exact net worth, but I'd be surprised if it isn't north of 500 million. It's crazy, but he's not going to miss those 20 million if true and wouldn't notice if they were gone...

Polls like this serve no purpose. We have almost no knowledge of the case. To render a judgment without any sort of evidence to back it up is unethical. It is an insult to both the perceived perpetrator and the claimed victim. I wish people would realise this and stop making stuff like this...

This is so, so bad. He is unrecognizable.

That I definitely agree with. Ronaldo has been a great player and actually a great professional throughout his career. Yes, he did fuck up this season. But who never fucks up? We'd all do well to show a bit of clemency.

I have no doubt that Ronaldo will struggle to come to terms with the end of his football career. You rightly say that football is his life. He will need some time to find a new purpose. All of this is complicated exactly because Ronaldo lacks perspective. The entire reason he became the...

No one said anything about "getting over it". That's not how grief works.

That might be true, but everyone goes through rough patches in their life. It happens to the grocer next door and it also happens to Cristiano Ronaldo. It doesn't justify Ronaldo's behaviour. And Ronaldo is in the unique position of being able to walk away from his job at any point in time and...

It isn't. And it definitely isn't, when this was your only child or a second child. But having several other children does matter quite a lot. I'm not saying it isn't bad. Of course people will grieve a stillborn child. But if you have four or five living children, you are still mostly very much...

Of course not, but IlCapitano said he doesn't expect parents to ever recover. And I think a lot of them (eventually) do, especially when they have numerous other children.

It isn't. My parents had a stillborn child too (when they already had two children) and while perhaps they always feel some sort of loss, they now have four healthy children and I honestly don't believe they are in any way traumatized by it. Obviously Ronaldo was affected by it, but yeah, I do...

I don't think Messi aged that poorly. In fact, I think Messi is going to be relieved when he can leave football behind him.

This is particularly funny, because I'm guessing you're referring to Ekdal. In Dutch "dal" means "valley" while "berg" means "mountain", which would be a very fitting change for a transgender person.

I don't know. Ronaldo's playing well and Messi just kept Argentina's hopes alive. They're not just stars of yesteryear imo. Verstuurd vanaf mijn ONEPLUS A6003 met Tapatalk

But to be fair to him, would you listen to a demented fan badgering you day and night shouting at you that you need to come back to Portugal?

He would have hit 30 goals last season and probably that same figure this year. We'd arguably be doing better too. But I'm still glad he left, because we need to rebuild. Verstuurd vanaf mijn ONEPLUS A6003 met Tapatalk

I think that always has a pretty vague explanation, because it depends on the circumstances. To me termination would be justified, mostly because Ronaldo has made further collaboration impossible.

They almost always have obligations about not discrediting the club in public and such. There's also the fact that Ronaldo made it impossible to continue working with him. When a party unilaterally undermines the execution of a contract, you can have the contract terminated in a lot of...

Ronaldo thrives on conflict though. I wouldn't be surprised if he bags 8 goals and carries Portugal to the title. It's exactly the kind of annoying shit he has been doing forever now. No matter what, if we'd play the CL final and we get a possibly decisive penalty kick in the final minute of...

I am glad you are worried so much about Man Utd's success.

Then I would look into why he chose to do so and decide whether or not he was right. If he wasn't, I'd think about leaving. What I wouldn't do is organise an interview to basically whine for 90 minutes about how poorly my company is being run. I actually like Ronaldo a lot more than most people...
