i don&#039;t think many of us get why so many players loves madrid more than any other club but that&#039;s why we&#039;re fans of utd and not of madrid. i got something to do with the (ancient) history and the overall glamour - lets face it madrid is the footballing version of hollywood (think about it footballers their are prehaps the some of the biggest world known stars coming out spain, where as in this country we have some pretty big world known actors and musicans as well as our sports stars - if a footballer wants to be in the world spotlight you can understand why players want to go there as players there are the movie stars of madrid, whilst football here, especially in the north is gritty with raw emotions, basically it&#039;s the purer (and orignal) version of the game) i&#039;m just saying that i understand why ronaldo may view madrid as a bigger club than utd, even though i think we are more of a team and more stable as he is like the brad pitt of the footballing world who feels that lifestyle should match that profile and madrid has the glam factor that manchester does not, but i love manchester bcos it&#039;s not glitz &amp; it&#039;s in the real world. i think ronaldo will be very happy there at least in the beginning &amp; even if not he won&#039;t say bcos he can&#039;t as rm are clearly on evidence so far pulling the strings. for the record i don&#039;t think he is missing us at all but add in the next 5yrs countless managers, over self promotion, hounded by the paps 24/7 reducing him to his home, and the high standards you have to achieve 24/7 or the fans (and president) will want your blood and his body language could be telling a very different story. sorry bout the length!</description>

		<description>Doghouse....

the same question I asked few weeks ago. I just dont understand, what players see in that circus? When they get call from RM, in their head happend like they get crazy, they lost their mind. That club, didnt win anything last few years, except with Capello, but everybody wants to go there. I think Ronlado won t be happy there. Only in UK fans live for football. Even Mourinho, says that that pasion you cant see and get anywhere.</description>

		<description>But i think that RM have a better team. They are not althogether but they will. We play great without Ronaldo, becuause he is world class, and after him, we can say whatever we want but, there is a big hole, without him. So we need to spent money on some good players to be 100% sure that we are copentitive.</description>

		<description>King Eric
Been second in that league is effectively being last. You have lost is it 3 out of your last 5 with Guti kicking his toys out and Benzema not buying a goal. It will all end in tears son. The irony is that for all the money you spent you miss Ronaldo when he ain’t playing. We are doing fine without him.

this is truth! It is awful that without Ronaldo they loosing games, and they have a Kaka and Benzema. You cant have that much stars in the team, it is wasteing of money. I would like that Benzema not succeed in RM and than come to OT.</description>

		<description>Ronaldo&#039;s manners since his departure remind me a little of Beckham after he left, again a legend, again leaving under something of a cloud. I think that players who spend their formative years at United have it all, the best manager in the world, the best club in the world, the best team-mates in the world, the best fans in the world (even if this is sometimes expressed as an awed hush at Old Trafford from time to time, it&#039;s not like the place isn&#039;t always full or near as damnit). Players have all this, then they go to Real, typically the only club big enough to sign our best players, and they walk right into a bad comedy. Managers who are in and out the door faster than brothel punters, a history of stupid spending, corruption and ties to fascism, and a team of gifted mercenaries who are mostly there for the money and the sure and certain knowledge, deep in your soul, that if you must play in Spain you&#039;d rather be at Barca. How can anybody leave United for Real and not miss what they left behind?

I&#039;d take him back at United in a second. But wouldn&#039;t want us to pay more than thirty million quid for the privilege. Lose him for a couple years, sign him back for £50m profit, that&#039;d be about right. :)</description>

		<description>theres only one Keano
hopefully we&#039;re getting our unconvincing patch out of the way early - every team as a down patch (or several small little down patches) across a season so i&#039;m not too worried as of yet - winning is still winning and the main aim this side of xmas is realistically is to still be in the carling, fa, and cl cup comps and be up there in the pl as one of the leaders. I don&#039;t think any 1st placed team is going to lead over the second by more than 4pts at any pt this season. Good news for football fans in general that all comps that the english teams are competing for are wide open so anyone could win them - and yes liverpool have been awful over the last month but they still beat us and this could be turn out to be their only bad point in the season, or (with the exception of chelsea that one time and hopefully against us later in the season) they are going to be big team beaters and lose against the smaller teams in the pl and europe - which i have no objections to if they want to knock out the 2 big spanish teams in the cl and then we knock them - that would be sweet! sorry bout the length of the previous post</description>
