18/19, the summer we signed Ronaldo:
Cancelo 40M
DCosta 40M 6M net
Bonucci 35M 5M net, later raise
Can free 16M 5M net
Perin 14M
Favilli 7.5M
Magnani 5M
19/20:
De Ligt 85M 8.5M net
Romero 26M
Demiral 18M
Rabiot free ?M agent fee 7M net
Ramsey free 3M 7M net
Kulusevski 35M
20/21:
Arthur 72M
Morata 20M
Rovella 18M + big bonuses
Chiesa loan 10M (or 20, forgot)
Mckennie loan 4.5M
Gori 3M
21/22:
Mckennie 20.5M
Locatelli loan
Whatever Kaiolé was
Ronaldo leaves
These are just arrivals, departures are equally worse, we sell good and potentially good players for peanuts and keep over the hill players until they are unsellable. But sure, Ronaldo crippled us in the transfer market
The devil’s advocate argument is that we had to sell because of FFP. But what we bought shows how Paratici thought a squad should be built. We should count our lucky stars if we get CL every year in next 3 years, and stadiums remain open.
P.s. forgot contract extensions. Rugani (x2), Bentancur and Szczesny.

signed romero for 25 million, loaned him to atalanta with option for 16 million. atalanta turn and sell him for 45-50 million.

and for what? what did atalanta give us? no gosens, no zapata no malinvosky.

can't wait to see how members explain his this was ronaldo's fault

Every person saying that Ronaldo set us back due to his fee and wages should read this morning, noon and evening as punishment for the silly idea that got in their head.

Those saying he set us back tactically and on the pitch because he requires the team to revolve around him have no cure.
You don't know that because we can't turn back the time and redo all that wrong
But if in the alternate history we just buy Haaland instead of Ronaldo we will be not that bad tough. Just imagine

Everything went south not because Ronaldo arrived, but because this great man left us.
Our biggest mistake was firing him...
If he not left, Ronaldo won't come . As simple as that, he is the most pennypinching guy
And he already know the lesson from Higuain transfer deal. only donkey goes to the same hole twice

While Higuain with UCL final can be considered as flop. what about this CR7 without UCL final, just pffftttt

The way we pick captain is retarded, no wonder leadership is lacking if the only criterion to be one is having the most caps. Barella is a good candidate to be captain for them truth be told.

We picked Dybi over Bonucci for "continuity" but then Bonucci is ahead of AS, Cuadrado who joined same summer as Dybala. Makes no sense
