Fresh Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 "I should get out of Manchester as the circumstances are not right" "Nobody stood up for me and my desire is to play in Spain. Will it be Real or Barcelona? It will be one of them." "For some time I haven't had any support from my chief executive (David Gill) or my coach (Sir Alex Ferguson). They should have come out in my defence but no-one did." - BBC Then he signed a new contract and expressed his love for the club. However that didn't last long. "I want to play for Real Madrid, but only if it is true they are eager to pay me and Manchester United what they have been saying they will," said Ronaldo. - Terra quoted on Sky Sports There are mixed signals all over the place to even start bring up what he said at the end of the champions league. ------------- I know that most of what has been said is probably media bullshit and I do love Ronaldo but still. Clarification where we stand would have been nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramar Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 If you or I got an offer of a good job, being paid loads more money im sure we would go for it and want to move. I know I would. His situation is different, I would say this argument holds ground if you're not at a Premier League club otherwise its just rubbish. It works for modern day working class people because ultimately we get paid shit compared to these players, and more money makes our lives a little more comfortable. For example Ronaldo earns more money a month then I'll ever earn. He doesn't need anymore money, its pure greed to want to move to another club for money. So saying you can't blame him for moving for money is bad. Don't know if I explained my point to well there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gizmo Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Argh. There are no streams of the Celtic game anywhere and I can't even find a radio commentary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramar Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 It's times like this I wonder why we kept Adebayor, missed a sitter first half, went awol for the rest of the game. Then missed from two yards to set up Billy G for the equaliser. Shocking performance. Need to sort it out. Denilson on the wing is made of fail before the match started.

Platty Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 It was a game like that where we needed Berbatov to tuck one away. It was a walk in the park but no goals. Fuck sake. Villareal had one good chance that hit the post and thats it. I think we ended with 19 shots with like only 7 on target. Terrible. Should have walked it. Gah where's the finishing gone? Yeah we had 2 stonewall penalties not given and they was pens no doubt about it but we cant rely on winning a game on a penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fresh Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 I too kept thinking if berba was there with a little class in front of goal we would have won. We just needed someone to tap it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmac Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 perfectly good goal disallowed, missed penalty and first points dropped at home for 4 years, not the best start we've had, but it just means Celtic now have to take something from an away game to progress to the knockout stages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babooo Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Shocking performance. Need to sort it out. Denilson on the wing is made of fail before the match started. Agreed. Was a poor game, but glad we scraped the draw in the end. And yes, I have no idea what Wenger was thinking playing Denilson on the wong. Absolutely shocking. Its times like these when I get frustrated at Wenger, playing players in different positions due to the lack of depth in the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fierce_LiNk Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Gah, I expected United to win the game pretty comfortably yesterday, which we probably should have done. What we really need to do is to thrash Chelsea 4-0, and then watch as the team grows in confidence... har har har. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roostophe Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 That was close. 1-0 down in the 10th minute. Won 3-1. We weren't at our best today, but I'm not complaining. The 3-1 is comfortable enough. Plus we've got the second leg soon and we will probably shit 'em there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxfear Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Man U is not doing very well this season... Chelsea is on fire !! So I think 3-1 for Sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Portlett Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 well were actually doing better than we did last season from our opening three games. Last season we drew two and lost one in our games against reading, pompey and city whereas we have 4 points this season so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see us having a pretty bad season, we just dont have the squad to compete for the whole season. We've got a decent first 11 but after that it's pretty thin on the ground, Strachan must be frustrated at the boards lack of ambition in the market, compared to the Huns anyway.

gmac Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 nah I think we'll get over our shaky start, probably finish third in the group and a run to the latter stages of the UEFA cup (better for our coefficient than last 16) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksnowman Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Just like to remind Noodleman that Zenit lost 1-0 to Juventus:) Del Piero's free kick was top drawer. They likened it to C. Ronaldo, but I thought it was like Gerrards goal the night before, except from a free kick- same sort of hit, with the ball being nailed in behind the keeper. No chance!
