Fair play to him may i add, the deal is staggering from a financial point of view. It’s just the bullshit and petulant childish attitude that me and many cannot stand about Ronaldo. He could have easily stayed in Europe and played for a more sensible wage but he choose $$. Can’t knock it just don’t lie to the general public about it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoyalRed Posted December 31, 2022 Report Share Posted December 31, 2022 10 hours ago, joe jordans teeth said: As we have all said above,he wanted to do but nobody wanted him,he has somehow managed to nearly quadruple his wages while being crap,you have to doff your cap to him No other club wanted him because of his actions towards Man Utd and then to Portugal in the WC. Those recent actions showed that he cannot be trusted and can only move to a club that will play him every game. He has burnt his bridges around Europe. He will most likely break records in Saudi as he was Man Utd’s top scorer last season but no player is bigger than the club. ————- @piersmorgan: "If it was just about money, you'd be in Saudi Arabia earning this king's ransom, but that's not what motivates you. You want to keep at the top." @Cristiano Ronaldo: "Exactly." That was a month ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No CL club is paying him that sort of money because his performances don't justify it anymore. Anyone who's watched him for Man Utd this season or Portugal in the World Cup will know that he's nowhere near what he was even a year or so ago. Plus he gets a club sponsored Camel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you had ever been in Saudi you would understand that a Camel is seen as an sign of great wealth and esteem. If you have never been to Saudi then you are entitled to your rather childish and uneducated opinion.

I've been to the Camel market & auction outside Riyadh and it is mind boggling when you see the amount of cash being flashed around. Also, Camel meat is considered some thing of a delicacy so those not quite up to scratch are destined for the dinner table and is very nice too. A lot of Saudis also keep Camels simply as a pet.

Harry Posted December 31, 2022 Report Share Posted December 31, 2022 Fair play to the lad. He’s in his final years and managed to negotiate himself an 800% pay increase. Gotta take your hat off to that. Beckham quit ‘proper’ football when he was 32, increasing his bank balance on the pretence of ‘growing the game’ in the US. Ronaldo is doing it 5 years older on the pretence of ‘growing the game in Saudi’. Many people like to despise Ronaldo. Whilst he’s not quite as good as Messi, there is no doubt that over the last 20 years he’s been an absolutely fantastic footballer, one of the top 10-15 of all time. Good luck to the bloke. I’m sure there are many (not all, but many) who don’t like him through sheer jealousy. He’s bagged himself a phenomenal pay rise at the age of 37. I admire him for that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HitchinRed Posted January 3, 2023 Report Share Posted January 3, 2023 I love this quote from his new manager “In my life, I've seen that great players like Cristiano are the simplest to manage, because there's nothing I can teach him. My goal, my objective for Cristiano is to make him happy.” Sums it up nicely. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/64155302 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
