He has to go! How can he stay now? The only way for him to stay is to totally commit to the ’cause’ and he aint gonna do that! Get real people (no pun intended!) He wants out! Time to move on and let the ungracious, ungrateful, egotistical, immature boy go and play in a sub standard league that is the Spanish La Lega! Premier league it aint! Why else has big Phil come to the Premier league? (OK R.A.’s money helps but!?) He’s come here because it’s the best league in the world! Ronaldo would do well to remember that when he’s playing against the likes of Getafe and Real Mallorca in half empty stadiums! I mean ok Real Madrid V Barca is massive, but the rest? No, sorry Ronny it’s a backward step! Its your choice and I think you’ve already decided! So go now! We have other heroes to discover and to lavish our support on and hopefully they will be more worthy of it!!!

To be honest I was stricken with rage when these rumours come out last week that he had quoted he wanted to leave but I have calmed down now and got over him already. I never used to trust Ronaldo’s loyalty but after the world cup I genuinely felt that he had changed and that he really was moved by the way the United fans turned him into a marter. We love nothing more then an anti hero. Like every United fan we all knew he would leave one day but I thought that would be 3 or 4 years down the line. I just feel like a mug like every United fan does because we like so many I genuinely felt Ronaldo had taken us and the club to his heart, but hes shown himself to be a self obsessed, disrespectfull twat. Im so sad to be agreeing with all those people who labeled him that after the world cup in 2006, its really sad. I wont be giving him a good reception if he returns to Old Trafford one day with Real Madrid.

Good point Denton, but there is still the point that Ronaldo is allowing the speculation to continue. Saying to the press exactly what they want to hear depending on which country he’s in.

I am talking about on screen interviews too, not stuff written on the daily bog roll.

I just don’t get this business about CR7 being “disrespectful” to UTD or SAF. It’s all based on inuendo and second hand reports and the reading-of-tea-leaves. Until we actually see a direct video-taped interview with him, it’s just speculation.

And, don’t forget, in his role as a commercial “face”, it’s Cristiano Ronaldo’s job to keep that face in the public view. He’s not done a bad job of that since there is more written about him than anything else to do with this tournament.

Also, speaking of Portugal.

What does everyone think of the way Phil Scolari has told Ronaldo to go to REAL MADRID… when he knew e’d be the manager of Chelsea next season.

I bet he wants Ronaldo out of England.

How can you feel the same about a player who has given you so much joy only to show complete disrespect to Sir Alex, to Manchester United, to his team mates and to us.

We all supported him when he was the most hated figure in football. I don’t think the problem is that he wants to leave but more the way he is going about it.

If he stayed silent rather than flirting with the press I wouldn’t feel the way I do right now.

hes been quoted today after the match saying to marca i love playing in a white strip ,the white of the national team that is.If thats true then thats awful its disrespectful to united and all the people at united who have helped him.If all this is true and he really does want to leave now then we should get rid but im hoping that most of this stuff from marca is rubbish then id be ok with him.

he’s still a united player for now but the fact is that he could have killed all this speculation weeks ago by clearly stating his intention to honour the huge contract he recently signed. i’m really disappointed in ronaldo’s conduct throughout this affair.

am i the only one that suspects he is taking enjoyment from all this attention and fuss?

i still think he’s the best player in the world but as a person he falls miles short of unassuming and loyal united legends like solskjaer and scholes!
