Cristiano Ronaldo (272 Viewers)

Whoever put him in the history section (not legends) gets my deep respect.

Today I depart from an amazing club, the biggest in Italy and surely one of the biggest in all of Europe. I gave my heart and soul for Juventus and I’ll always love the city of Turin until my final days.

His actual quote : " Just wrote whatever you want"
The creator : his social media team

why > because if he really did create all that, he will make an insta story. tell all those words, not just text
One can say, that Messi conference pers is scripted, but for me that is the real love that come from the heart. you said it not just text

that's still a loss, mate.

we made a loss on the most marketable player ever. let that sink in.

The problem isn't that we didn't get enough money for him right now. It's that we spent way, way, way too much to sign him in the first place.
That made it pretty much impossible to prevent a loss.

I'm sure Ronaldo took the decision about how to talk about his departure very seriously when he knew it could be difference between the legends section and the history section.

 

[Mike-e-y]

So we’ve sold the GOAT for 3m x 5 over a 5 year period while in the process making a loss…. We’ve basically given him away for free…

I don’t understand how we can’t sell him for a proper sum. He’s old but he’s still one of the best in his position and will remain so for a number of years due to his conditioning. What the fuck is wrong with this club????

He just looks like he want to run away as soon as someone wants him, he even want to go to the blue of manchester as long he is not with us
That tells you something right ?

but I am agree that he did give some point about what to wrote but not in detail, I just dramatize it a little bit

We should at least get the whole 29.25 m from Man Utd even if that structure in installment and bonuses (and it must be easy to achieve)

impossible to make manure, one of the most cash stuffed clubs of the world, pay 28m for the most marketable player ever, and still one of the best of his position? a player that they wanted to sign, and who allegedly agreed to take a massive paycut? the same club that paid 85m for sancho and 40m for varane, and that will buy a nobody for 28m on the last day of the summer mercato?

not something i'd necessarily call impossible. we're just fine with making losses on players' book values regularly.

 

[PhRoZeN]

Massive let down by the club, not that i expected much but this is a new low. Granted Ronaldo wanted out and we wre put in a scenario where we didnt want an unhappy player, but united wanted him badly and once again we failed. Fuck Ronaldo by the way, if the guy wanted to leave, he should have said a while ago, he really messed us up with this debacle. He might be a GOAT, and theres no doubting that but the manner he left is ugly, i have zero respect for this guy and with that im losing respect with some of the clowns at this club. As much as i hate united, i can't blame them for their approach, we got schooled by a club thats been a laughing stock for the past decade, and that is what makes this even more embarrassing.

Honestly, I would have predicted we'd let Ronaldo leave for free. That's how much I thought we wanted to get rid of him.

Or the logical explanation we want to part ways with him too, and want to conclude this ASAP
Since the end of mercato is getting near

 

[Siamak]

Yes, it was a great individual performance.
But that team wasn't really that great overall. We had some questionable coaches too.

Ronaldo wasn't the problem in terms of his play, he given his 100% to team. thats managers fault they didn’t make any promising signing. having him is not enough If cant afford decent midfield, we have all seen that for 3 years!

 

[JCK]

If I add rainhard to my ignore list because his posts are really intolerable, would someone kindly quote his predictions in the prediction league so I can add his score?

good to know that some of us might consider this a great sale. after all, it's 15m + 8m over nothing at all.

The truth is hurt, but sometimes it better than being lied to

No, don't get me wrong.

I don't think it's a great sale. I just think a great sale was impossible, simply because of the deal we made 3 years ago.

Less than a year left on contract, Man City was proposing an offer with zero transfer fee.... you're really missing the fact that Cristiano is a declining asset. Who ever makes a profit on a transfer of a 36 year old player, really? I mean ever.

 

[Ronn]

15m over 5 years. They just wanted to rub it in.

 

[LiquidPLP]

15m over 5 years. They just wanted to rub it in.

They knew we desperate to sell him. Everyone out there knew that. City offered no money to take him, that's how well they knew.

It's obvious why we jumped on the United deal. Covid has made everything difficult and no one said that the cleanup process would be pretty. We still have a lot of high earners to offload, there will be more ugly 'sales' next year and the year after that I think.

 

[PhRoZeN]

Surely thats all just speculation.

 

[james95]

As bad as we are currently, his move to United isn’t really a step up. He won’t have much better chances to win the CL (or even PL) with them than winning CL and Serie A with us. Yeah he may no longer be playing with the likes of Bentancur and Ramsey but United ain’t exactly lighting it up in that department with Fred & Mctominay. He was far better off moving to City if anything.
