Link If I was him I'd be focusing entirely on one last go at the World Cup. Park myself at United, get plenty of minutes scoring goals without playing twice a week and being in the best shape possible for Portugal, who actually have a well-rounded team and half a chance despite struggling to qualify. Then leave on a free in the summer to a Champions League team. All he is doing now is putting those clubs off and risking his reputation with Manure fans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely it's pretty safe being 16 goals ahead? Messi will retire before Ronaldo I'd have thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Perhaps Ronaldo will decide that home is more important than money and move back to Sporting. Fat chance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 He’s in the hundreds of millions club. At this moment I expect his next move will be 99% about football (although I’m sure he won’t play for free). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 13 hours ago, AXD said: Chelsea had a season like that a few years ago didn’t they? Not really in a relegation battle, but around 14-15th throughout the season. Imagine ManU doing that, ‘rock bottom’ for them. Actually since Feb their form is relegation, 20 points from 20 games and think they've now lost their last 7 away games going back to March. They'll probably be like Arsenal two years ago, stuck in bottom half until December and will then hit a decent run and get up to giddy heights of 8th.

The fact that most of their fans are fans because of winning whether they accept it or not, the whole situation is great. They have spent money, it’s not owners money but generated money. They should be better than they are not just in squad but all infrastructure. Welcome to the real world of football. As villa fans we have had our own but there are far worse off fans than ours. Long May it continue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinebro Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Fair play if they manage to get Casemiro over the line. He would help them a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could bring in Mbappe and Haaland and as it stands they’d just walk around the pitch every week collecting their wages. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duke313 Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Man Utd linked with everyone it seems. United are a good example of what not to do, throwing money about in a panic and signing players for the sake of it. We might not have signed anyone in a while, but our owners know what they are doing, we'll sign someone when the right player is available for the right price.

Thing is that would sink most clubs eventually. Man U and their weird Bangaladeshi ice cream partners etc and fans around the world means it'll never happen as the money keeps pouring in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
