Heard it on local radio, was something like £40 million upfront and £10 million a year for 4 years depending on appearances and trophies.

Aye, just another bullshit rumour no doubt but the stations are carrying it because it gets people phoning up and talking.

Well works out 80 mill, wow what a deal:)

Wouldn't sell him bud, the money is amazing but I don't see another right winger on the planet who can even get close to him at the moment and United know it.

Man Utd wouldnt sell him... think any other will have to be in excess of £100million to tempt them.

Reasoning:

1) He is indispensable to the team
2) There is no player that could replace his talent
3) He is arguably the worlds best player this season
4) He is young and got many years of football ahead of him
5) He is on a long term contract currently so no reason to let him go
6) He has a great love for Manchester United
7) He attracts alot of merchandising (Look at the number of No.7 shirts that sell)
8) He attracts alot of new fans to United thus bringing in more money through new fans merchandising. Helps to attract females to support Utd because they fancy him, something you cant say about Rooney :p

What he brings to the team is worth alot more then 100million in my mind, if he helps us to League and Europe glory, that alone is worth its weight in gold. But he brings so much more and if the Glaizers ever dared to accept an offer for him there probably be riots around Old Trafford.

edit: point 9) He can out run a buggeti Veyron!

Plus side for Man U it will show how serious the guy who owns you is Spurs would fold like a $10 whore and sell if he is looking at Man U as a bussiness he might sell. Spending £70mil? this summer i doubt it though.

Ronaldo says Sir Alex I want this deal, I have had great pleasure playing for such a great team, I think it is time for me to move on? what you think would happen then ? sell him cause now is heart is not in the club , or hold on to him knowing he hates us now for holding him back? at the end of the day Money comes first? only a home made boy would turn down a deal like this I could be wrong:(

When this happens to Arsenal we hold on for abit till the spanish press cnuts cause so much shit the club doubts the player the player doubts the club what ever it is they always go in the end. Like im sure Cesc will in 6 years time i just don't think it will be as soon as horses moths at barcelona seem to say it is.

Like Henry, this guy made the club then left it at a hair pin dropping?

By the way, Ronaldo has already said he wants to finish his career at man utd, it even is in his book. He doesnt play football for money, he plays it just to play and doesnt think that he could get the same enjoyment of the game outside of United, and to be honest he probably is right because he is given complete freedom.

You know that the game means so much to him with the way he reacts when he does something wrong. It always looks like the end of the world if you go by his expression. That alone means money will not be a problem, and man utd could outpay anyone if they wanted. 2nd biggest turnover in the footballing world in the last year.

lmao if you think that 'look' he does whenever he makes a mistake is natural you're kidding yourself, it's clearly for the camera.

Amazing what gets ghost written on their behalf! As a pro footballer they know they have 10-15 years tops to earn a lifetimes wages. Most would jump ship, if the club allowed it, with such big money was on offer. You would be stupid not to.

You forgot:

10) Dives better than Greg Louganis in his prime.
11) Oscar winning performances for stunt rolls and acting injured.


Have to admit, great player, probably best in the world right now but just wish he'd cut the bullshit out of his game.

While that might be the case for lots of players in this case he's probably earned enough money to live comfortably for 4 lifetimes from the last 6 months.

40 million or 90 million. There's very little actual difference to the way you can live your life.

He doesnt actually "dive" that much now days, well not compared to alot of players. Hell pure dives I would say Gerrard is worst.
What Ronaldo does is just go down easy when there is contact, not classed as a dive that, but it is a weakness in his game at times. Problem is look at any player that moves at his pace, any contact is enough to send them to the ground however he probably tries to use it to his advantage more then some.
By this I mean, if someone dangles a leg out he will move to make sure there is contact and go down. May not be the most sporting method of play, however does teach people not to pussy foot around him :p

As for rolling around, he generally doesnt do that to be honest so guess you not watched him this season or most of last for that matter. His method is go down, look at the ref with arms in the air then throw a fit and punch the ground when he doesnt get the decision. He aint Drogba ya know!

He held out for 3 years then i suppose with his divorce (getting kicked out of his house ect) he moved on. And only one man made arsenal Wenger with out him henry would stil be second choice left winger at Juve

Sounds like what Henry was saying the season before he moved to Barce. I love Arsenal i will never leave the money dose not matter. Arsenal are the only club for me. Look how quick that changes and if you don't think the same can happen to Ronaldo you are wrong.

Given the chance ofc he would go, however he seems happy where he is, i doubt he wants for much. Ferguson won't sell him, they don't need the money, when have they ever sold a happy key first team player when they don't want to? :p
