Ruud was a great player, if he realised he wasnt the star anymore and left gracefully to make way for Ronaldo and Rooney, then maybe he could have been recognised with legendary status at united. But as of what player he is (just general skill), one of the greatest strikers to wear the red shirt.

Robinho is just a big fish in a small pond. he wouldnt have had the same impact at any big teams. He’s the star of the team now, they play to his strengths. If he went to Chelsea he’d have to play the way Frank Lampard plays since the team is built around him.

I’d rather have Ronaldo, even the way he is now.

Everyone keeps saying Robinho wants to Play for United, anyone who followed him at Madrid, he slagged us of ALL THE TIME. Now he joined our arch rivals and says he is playing for the best team in Manchester. Whether he has a secret wish to play for us or not he has a funny way of showing it. Stuff him.

Another difference between Ronaldo and Robinho:

The Brazilian clearly wants to play for United, whilst Ronaldo….

Gapi why are you even comparing robinho and ronaldo? they are both completely different. for example, one plays mostly as a striker and plays for only the second best team in manchester. one has a champions league medal, the season where they finished top scorer in the champions league, the other doesn’t. one is about the ballon d’or, the other one might never. there is just no need to compare and I will always support a United player over a City player.Perhaps you could take a few lessons about that.

As for being such an amazing person, pah. Is that why it has been revealed that he cried to leave Real Madrid and threatened to go to Brazil and come back? Such an amazing role model. Is that why he went to such a shithole, where he knew he had no chance of winning anything, and never expressed a desire to go there, just for a big pay rise?

You have seriously done yourself no favours with that post

I read the article and to me its pretty clear to see (although he would never say it) that Robinho is a United fan!

nagraj, is that right what you say about RVN celebrating us winning the league?

An excellent record and great player on his day but a United legend?

More good news is that Torres gonna be out for few more weeks with a fucked hamstring. Again. For all the good he has done this season.

United to win 2-0!

nagraj- hes a turncoat and big baby. yes he was great at first but for a whole season and more i wanted him out cos he was sulking, ducking away from balls and not trying as hard for the team as when he first came. thats disgraceful.

We could do with someone with RVNs predatory instincts this sunday. I think we’ll still turn them over in their Council House!!

Ruud van Nistelrooy was Robinho’s hero… Weird. I couldn’t think two players with more contrasting styles!
