Leo No.8 Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 (edited) My mate who I get some interesting info off (Zenden / Pennant etc), says Ronaldo has been offered to us and United by one of his representatives. Interesting... Edited February 23, 2006 by Leo No.8
Tosh Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Ronaldo and Rooney,sitting in a tree and the branch broke.
Leo No.8 Posted February 23, 2006 Author Posted February 23, 2006 BUY HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!! &BAN MURPH!!!!!!!! If only one could happen Cobs - which would you want it to be?
CaptainXabi Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Ronaldo and Rooney,sitting in a tree and the branch broke. Seriously though, buy fatty and camp him in the box.
Cobs Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 If only one could happen Cobs - which would you want it to be?tough question but..... BAN MURPH!!!! there are other strikers.
Nerik Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Will be interesting to see how/if we will deal with Real following the Figo fiasco.
Stevie H Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Will be interesting to see how/if we will deal with Real following the Figo fiasco. what fiasco?
Leo No.8 Posted February 23, 2006 Author Posted February 23, 2006 (edited) tough question but.....BAN MURPH!!!!there are other strikers. On a serious note though, past his best or not could you think of anyone better to stick the chances away we've been missing this season? He has been very complementary about United in the past though and you'd perhaps fancy them to pip us, but you'd wonder why United are looking for a striker when its the one position they are well-covered in. My mate says they want a 'big name' to increase shirt sales etc, and he fits the bill so they'll be up for it, but that seems mad to me. They need 2 or 3 top-class midfielders before they sign any more strikers... Edited February 23, 2006 by Leo No.8
The Hitman Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 We need somebody who can create goals and somebody who can tuck them away.Ronaldo isn't a great long-term option,for me,I'd prefer somebody younger and hungrier.

Cobs Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 guess it depends on the £££s invlolved but i'd say he'd be a better option/score more goals than Morientes or Cisse for us.
Tosh Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 To be fair Cobs I am a better option for scoring goals than Morientes or cisse
The Hitman Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 He looks pretty hungry to me with that belly...BELLY'S GONA GETCHA,BELLY'S GONA GETCHA!!! CisseJust as long as we get shut of him,I'm happy.Never been so disappointed by a signing.
Cobs Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 To be fair Cobs I am a better option for scoring goals than Morientes or cisse maybe but i'd still rather BAN MURPH!!!!!
Guest Scouse Kiss Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 My mate says they want a 'big name' to increase shirt sales etc, Shouldn't that be a 'big shirt to increase name sales' for Ronaldo.
DazzlaJ Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 BELLY'S GONA GETCHA,BELLY'S GONA GETCHA!!!Just as long as we get shut of him,I'm happy.Never been so disappointed by a signing. Or a t-shirt
galés rojo Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 (edited) I don't think Ronaldo would play enough games for us, yes he'd probably score every time he played but his injury record isn't good and i can't see playing in England improving that. Nearly every time i see him tackled heavily in spain he looks in agony and i don't think he's faking it.We cant really afford to risk a lot of money on a player who might be unavailable as often as he is available. Id love to sign a fully fit injury free Ronaldo but i don't know if we will ever see that player again, out of interest how long is his contract at Real and what sort of money would he cost?

WillG Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Ronaldo and Fowler ??? When did we become Celebrity Fit 'Football' Club? Tell him feck off to Qatar or that other retirement home Old Trafford.
Rahul Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 My mate who I get some interesting info off (Zenden / Pennant etc), says Ronaldo has been offered to us and United by one of his representatives. Interesting...That the same Pennant that was meant to sign in January?
Knox_Harrington Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 tough question but.....BAN MURPH!!!!there are other strikers.YES! SENSE AT LAST!! BAN HIM!!! BAN HIM NOW!!!!
Fagan Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 in fairness, rafa will only sign someone who wants to play for the club and not someone who is just looking for any old club to earn some sheckles. If Rafa talks to him and feels he has the desire to put o the red shirt then i'd welcome him with open arms.
Mikey Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Ronaldo is world class - end of. Can't believe some of the s**** in here, he will never come to us in a month of Sundays but if he would and we could afford him we should snatch his bloody arm off.
realtarragona Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Ronaldo is definitely past his best but he's still a brilliant player and an even better finisher. I would absolutely love him here but I'm not going to get my hopes up.
Phil236849 Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Ronaldo is world class - end of. Can't believe some of the s**** in here, he will never come to us in a month of Sundays but if he would and we could afford him we should snatch his bloody arm off. ronaldo is I'd guess wrong side of 30 - 32?. he has weight, fitness and injury-prone issues. he is an out and out goalscorer. he is class but past his best. there are doubts as to his commitment. he may cost a lot, on wages plus fee. we do need a goalscorer - he ticks that box. we have two ageing forwards already. ideally, we would want players who are approaching their prime, whose value in every way should increase, who are hungry for the team. and who are robust and energetic enough to cope with Premier League refereeing and defenders. i don't think he ticks enough boxes. we are liverpool. we have never compromised for past-it legends and we don't have to feel that is our place. gary mc was a success, but it does not mean we should aim to shop at the veteran end of the market. i think we are better than ronaldo, not the other way around.
