IndianPunk are you suggesting my comment of a realistic replacement for Ronaldo is foolish? I want to hit you over the head with a Portugese > English dictionary until you take it back.

Nani is THE MOST OBVIOUS REPLACEMENT for Ronaldo, as he is a natural winger who plays for Manchester United who is not Ryan Giggs who’ll be playing on the left. Although I didn’t say he’d reach Ronaldos level, so read properly before opening your mouth.

i don’t have any quotes but im pretty sure Ronaldo said that he wanted to become a United legend and be remembered in the rich history of this most famous club. That means winning as much as he can until the end of his contract. However with the squad as it is now with an immense defence and awesome attack which includes a strong Portugese speaking contingent, the environment is perfect for CR7 to dominate for many years in the glorious Red of Manchester. United have some of the best young talent in the world and he is so settled i can’t see him leaving for a long long time. OUR BOY RONALDO! we love you

Actually it was meant to be aimed at Arun, clearly I need to learn how to read people’s names! And I don’t think Messi would be better for our team, even though I think he’s a better player, I’m not sure if he would do what Ronaldo does for us, although I had always wondered.

nani has potential but he aint ever becoming ronny note that people being optimistic is one thing and a fool is another

i expect ronny to hold on for another two seasons if dont win Cl and if we win Cl this or next year make that 4 Max
after that he is leaving without a doubt

Conor, was that aimed at me? I never said I wanted him to leave, or that he isn’t irreplaceable. I would wish that we had Messi in our side to soften the blow, though realisticly I’d replace him with Nani, who will no doubt turn into a top player, in the few games he has played he has lit them up and also scored some cracking goals, including his delightful chip in pre-season.

Tom if he left now, who would you replace him with? there’s no player that would be better for our team than him right now.

We can let ronaldo leave once tevez anderson and rooney have peaked. There is no player who is irreplaceable. In any team.

I think Ronaldo looks up to Alex Ferguson in many ways, he has guided his talent and encouraged him so that he can see out his potential, he was there for him through the most difficult period of his life, after a rape allegation, his father passing away and then the abuse he suffered because England aren’t good enough Sir Alex stuck by him and gave him great belief and direction. He has admitted he owes it all to him and I think the day Sir Alex steps down any speculation regarding Ronaldos Man United future may carry substance. I am so very happy with our Squad right now, Wayne Rooney wants to be here for life and I wish I could say the same about Ronaldo, I don’t really blame him for wanting to play in a massive club abroad, his talent alone deserves that, it will help him become a legend in football as well as a red legend, if he does really have to go then I would say around the age of 25/26. manchester Uniteds manager, money, trophies and personal circumstances will all play a part in the final outcome and I really think it will be a sad day for Ronaldo and MUFC alike.

Can’t we just keep him unitl he’s 29? I’d like to see a 2 year contract extension so he could win his 3rd Cl with us. That’s how I would frame it. We are on the brink of history right now, and I truely believe our players will produce this season as well as in the years after. It would be difficult for a player like Ronnie, who loves the personal accolades, to remove himself from a part of a history as rich as Uniteds. To not only be mentioned with the likes of Cantona, but with the very real possibility to surpass…
