Genie Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 I wonder if Ronaldo regrets not going to City. He’d be making room for a PL medal and probably golden boot trophy on his mantle piece by now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 14 minutes ago, rodders0223 said: City didn't want him Pep confirmed they were in for him Quote The move means City are likely to go into the new season without a recognised striker, with Ronaldo's failed move following Harry Kane's decision to remain at Tottenham. On Friday, before City decided to pull out of the deal for Ronaldo, Guardiola had said the Portuguese was a player who could decide where he plays, rather than City or himself. And speaking ahead of the clash with Arsenal in the Premier League, Guardiola was philosophical about the situation. "I would say frustrated isn't the right word," he told BT Sport "We have an exceptional squad, I say thank you all the time to the club and the organisation for the future and the best players possible to compete. We aren't frustrated, it's good that a player like Cristiano Ronaldo is back in the England for the Premier League. It's good news." https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/man-city-ronaldo-united-guardiola-21425740.amp 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently he asked Rio Ferdinand if it would ruin his united legacy if he went to city and rio told him it would so he choose united. What an error. He'd have 40 goals in that city team and could run even less than he does now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderPower_14 Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Ronaldo has won everything. I think keeping United fans on side at this point of his career is worth more than a frankly meaningless league title with Man City Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 Messi is really struggling in Ligue Un this season, you do have to wonder if he would have done as badly if he went to City. 2 league goals so far, he hit 30 last season. People did say he would struggle outside the Barcelona system 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 I watched his (Messi) first couple of games at PSG and he looked like a broken man. Like it had dawned on him that there’s more to life than money and now he was stuck there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 I think he has largely parked himself there ready for the World Cup. I'm not saying Qatar 2022 might be a bit dodgy (much) but it probably won't harm his chances being at PSG. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 I said maybe as long as 10 years back I think he'll retire before Ronaldo, fortunately it's not because his body is broken but the desire isn't the same 2 years at PSG and then he might drop in to the MLS (to a new franchise...) or go back to argentina I haven't watched him at psg tbf other than the game vs City, for me he was always so much more than the insane goal stats and that's what made him so special but even that wasnt there, the passing range and vision etc just looked like a "regular" top player, take the goals away and he still had the passing ability of xavi/iniesta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A move away from Barcelona and the comfort may have been much more difficult than he and his advisors thought it would be. Should have played for cheap in Barcelona.

Again he couldn't have played for cheap at Barca even if he wanted. I have wondered if he is on the spectrum judging by the stuff he can do with a ball, especially at full speed.
