[Merged] Ronaldo
 

His actions in todays game, sign of his intent not to return to England, to head to madrid or just a player who made a hot headed mistake similar to rooney.

Re: Ronaldo
 

****** who should get what is comming to him if he ever plays in england again :mad: :mad: :mad:

Re: Ronaldo
 

The international game is a different game to club level. Read nothing into it. He was not team mates with any English player today. That is all.

Re: Ronaldo
 

What was ronaldo's wink and SHhhh about? And why did he headbut rooney?

Re: Ronaldo
 

Personally we have too many foriegn players in the premiership football.

He shouldn't return to Manchester after his actions. MPO only.

Re: Ronaldo
 

I can't stand Ronaldo he's a smarmy arrogant cocky creep.

Re: Ronaldo
 

Don't worry about it. It was a game and it's all over now. There is no point wasting time analysing it. Seriously, there's nothing in it all. He was winding Rooney up because he knows him. He didn't do it to anyone else. As for the 'wink' and 'shhh', well the wink could just have been a 'let's do this' wink and the 'shhh' is just a face pulling thing he seems to do. If you want to look at it that way, then why was he 'shhh'ing on the way to take his penalty?

Re: Ronaldo
 

I see we've found this tournament's scape goat then!

Re: Ronaldo
 

:D

Re: Ronaldo
 

lol - you've started it now!!!! Not that the English fans that always need one! ;)

Re: Ronaldo
 

I'm quite surprised, I was expecting the whole of England's traditional failure to be the fault of Rooney seeing as he's a United player (it's easier to blame them apparently) however Ronaldo being conveniently Portugese has evidently helped on this occasion.

Re: Ronaldo
 

am from N.Ireland i am more worried about Old Trafford camp lol England went out because they simply wern't good enough from start. and that fault in some way can fall on your manager.

as for Ronaldo he can be annoying even for me as a Utd fan but hes 20/21 now isnt he, i wind my mates up when playing a kickabout at weekends i hope your right bender and its just nothing but with all rumours of Real Madrid lately etc he could be setting in motion a get out plan.

Re: Ronaldo
 

agreed, but in the same sense, the players themselves must take MOST of the blame - only they could change it as they were the ones on the pitch.

At the end of the day, the lad is young and will go where the money is. Fair play to him. If I get offered a job doing the same thing, for more money, in more scenic surroundings closer to my home, I'd go too.

Re: Ronaldo
 

No, Man Utd lost that honour to Chelsea a season or two ago.

Re: Ronaldo
 

Ah right - perhaps John Terry will get it in the neck this time.

Re: Ronaldo
 

guess the days of loyalty and sticking to clubs or long periods of time are gone. But other than fack its Madrid you can't say going to Real is great move for the lad they are in as bad a shape as United these days.

Re: Ronaldo
 

It will, however, be interesting to see what the reaction to Rooney's dismissal is. It will also be interesting to watch Man Utd's first training session.

Re: Ronaldo
 

Why not "I can shoot but not score" Lampard

Coming second in the Premiership is bad shape? :erm:

Re: Ronaldo
 

I doubt it - I think most England fans have already decided Ronaldo was the reason they lost.

Re: Ronaldo
 

It was nothing to do with Ronaldo. We were a poor team really. All good Premiership players but not as a England team. Look at the first half. Really poor. We only played better when we were down to 10 men.;)

Re: Ronaldo
 

You could charge Ronaldo with ungentlemanly conduct.

But then you would have to charge rooney for being a ugly untallented cretin at least.:D

Re: Ronaldo
 

That is totally unfair, Rooney is talented :D

Re: Ronaldo
 

when did ronaldo head but rooney? I missed that.

in my opinion the real idiot was rooney for getting red carded.

Re: Ronaldo
 

Just prior to kick off. Rooney was talking to a Portugese player, when Ronaldo walked up and not-quite-a-head-butt-more-head-pushed him. From Ronaldo's face, not a friendly tap either

Re: Ronaldo
 

cheers - found it here:-

http://uk.sports.yahoo.com/060701/2/l4dp.html

"...his way off the pitch.

Ronaldo had feigned to head-butt Rooney seconds before the match kicked off as he walked past his club mate to take up his position on the left wing in what appeared another bad-tempered exchange.

As he left the field, Rooney..."

HEY YOOOOO GUYS!!!!

Re: Ronaldo
 

Heh I didnt know rooney was in the movies :D

Re: Ronaldo
 

Which one's meant to be Roo? :spin:

Re: Ronaldo
 

LoL!:D

Re: Ronaldo
 

They both are, its called the Roonies not the Goonies :D

Re: Ronaldo
 

Maybe that is because the only three English players sent off in the World Cup finals have played for Man Utd, don't let facts get in the way of your paranoia though.

Re: Ronaldo
 

Paranoia? Remember the hate Beckham went through in 1998? Do you remember Seaman getting the same abuse for being so crap against the Brazilians and handing them the match in 2002?

Re: Ronaldo
 

Wilkins was playing for Milan at the time.

Re: Ronaldo
 

From that link:

Seemed to tread on his opponent's groin? No malicious intent? They'll be saying Wayne Looney never swears next :rolleyes:

Re: Ronaldo
 

Poor performances we can handle petulant out bursts are not on however the Mirror in particular went way to far.

---------- Post added at 23:36 ---------- Previous post was at 23:34 ----------

My mistake, however I am a bit to young to remember that far back, still no excuse really :td:

Re: Ronaldo
 

I personally do not think any of Englands performances were good in the tournament. Rooney is a hot head and deserved to be punished for what he did >I doubt the ref changed his desision because of Ronaldo if he wasnt going to do anything Ronaldo wouldnt have persuaded the ref to give red.As was said England played well with 10 men and deserved some reward but yet again when it comes to the crunch they do not have the balls to face a penalty shootout.
You could see the difference in the face of the oppositions keeper when he was facing the penilties,he was so fired up you could see how focused and up for it he was. The better team didnt win but you have to admire the keeper

Re: Ronaldo
 

According to some, good performances apparently aren't required :shrug:

Re: Ronaldo
 

That all depends on the luck of the game.Ive not really watched much of this tournament but I have not seen many actual good matches in the ones I have watched :) I think Germany will win it now

Re: Ronaldo
 

It's going home .....to the frogs

Re: Ronaldo
 

Oh I hope not the only thing worse than a German is a Frenchie lol lol (only joking of course to get out of the race thing here ;))

Re: Ronaldo
 

Come on, can't you be happy for your fellow europeans? Are you so bitter at your own failure that you want them to lose??

;)

Re: Ronaldo
 

I think most people know russ is welsh so its easy to ignore his baiting .

Re: Ronaldo
 

That wasn't baiting - it's called 'irony' ;)

It's what us celts have been told over the last 3 weeks when any of us have shown the slightest objection to England winning but perhaps I was just a little bit too subtle :spin:

Re: Ronaldo
 

my dislike of the French has absolutely nothing to do with football at all it has everything to do with there attitude when I visted Disneyland Paris.There arrogant they push in and they expect you to let them grrrrrrrrr

Re: Ronaldo
 

I don't want Germany to win but it's their home country so i guess it'd be nice for them to.

Re: Ronaldo
 

It wasn't a serious comment anyway - however surely you can look past that and be happy that a fellow european country is doing well??

Whoops, there I go again :D :angel:

Anyway, wasn't this about Ronaldo??

Re: Ronaldo
 

I cannot stand the fake Ronaldo, his tribbling stepovers are useless, the only thing that he is good at, is winding up Rooney....

The cup belongs to King Henry!

Re: Ronaldo
 

http://www.cristiano-ronaldo.org/

person he would most like to meet is mike tyson .................. im sure we could arange this

Re: Ronaldo
 

No cuz if you read my posts in the said thread you will have noted that I couldnt give a toss about football ;)

Ronaldo is a pussy (to stay on topic lol )

Re: Ronaldo
 

He made a small mistake though, all keepers make some mistakes and he had a bad game, he didnt get sent off. Plus it was his last game after a career of playing well for england.

---------- Post added at 10:24 ---------- Previous post was at 10:22 ----------

I want France to win now. Think they might too :D

Re: Ronaldo
 

He made a small mistake?? Did you see the attempt he made at catching the free-kick? Had he been a United 'keeper then I'm sure it would have been his 'fault'. Petty yes but that was the same attitude as those who blamed Beckham for the loss in 1998.

Re: Ronaldo
 

but Beckham did a stupid thing that put the team at a disadvantage,
Rooney did the same yesterday.Portugal couldnt break down 10 men so if Rooney was on the pitch then who knows.

Re: Ronaldo
 

Ditto Seaman?

Re: Ronaldo
 

But Rooney didn't do much while he was on the pitch, Portugal shut him down at ever opportunity, I seriously believe that it would still have gone to penalties and we'd still have lost.

Re: Ronaldo
 

well to be honest I have no recollection of that game.I dont think a poor performance though is as bad as blatent stupidity we all have off days

---------- Post added at 10:44 ---------- Previous post was at 10:43 ----------

That takes men to shut him down without rooney these men could do other things so if rooney kept them busy then others could have crept through

Re: Ronaldo
 

We certainly did well to hold them off with 10 men and I don't think winning on penalties is a sure sign of the opposing teams skill, far too much luck involved in scoring.

Re: Ronaldo
 

I think all the skill there rests with portugals keeper he was a good penalty keeper and no doubt

Re: Ronaldo
 

Absolutely - let's hope we see him at United this season :D

Re: Ronaldo
 

tbh I don't know how England made it this far, their performances have been awful from the start. There hasn't been a game yet where they 'deserved' to win. And they certainly didn't yesterday.

Re: Ronaldo
 

Actually the group stages are very similar to league football, you tend to get what you deserve, so whilst in your opinion we did not merit winning our group, there were in fact three teams who deserved to win it less.

Re: Ronaldo
 

there is a really funny picture on the front of one of the daily mirror magazines with cristiano ronaldo on the front

and forgive me for being nitpicky here, but his name is "cristiano ronaldo", not "ronaldo"

Re: Ronaldo
 

Ok, the fake Ronaldo's name is

Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro

What is his surname? I understand his father added "Ronaldo". What does his mother call him? Sandos? Aveiros? His friends?

What Rooney calls him?

What are the rules? My understanding is that he gets double surname mother+father, but his is fake....

Re: Ronaldo
 

Angerland needs a scape goat. (Because they were supposed to win the world cup - they invented the game, and won the cup in 1966 you know). So who should it be?
Rooney, Sven, Ronaldo?

Re: Ronaldo
 

chances are his mother would call him cristiano, and as for what rooney would call him :)

and he's not the "fake ronaldo"

what does it say on the back of his shirt at man utd? i can't remember

Re: Ronaldo
 

"****" ?

Re: Ronaldo
 

I thought so :D and his mother?

The reality is worse than I thought:
"Cristiano Ronaldo was given his name in honour of former US President Ronald Reagan, who was in office when the winger was born in 1985."

Re: Ronaldo
 

oh god ive been reading this thread and its the same old ****e :rolleyes: why attack the guy ? yes he has done wrong yes he riled rooney up.... but the fact of the matter is rooney dug his own grave, he got frustrated and all the pentup agression had to come out, its rooney's fault england were down to ten men and the coach for picking him as a lone striker, as for that ****head sven that idiot should just have picked defoe over theo 'ive never played a game for arsenals first team' walcott, cristiano is a player who has talent, admitidly he is a bit of a git but who is not ? most players who are world class have a tempremant...

Re: Ronaldo
 

I enjoy his trick

http://www.cristiano-ronaldo.org/cri...ldo-comics.php

Re: Ronaldo
 

:rolleyes:

Re: Ronaldo
 

Why isn't Petit getting abuse from England fans? He was standing right next to Ronaldo remonstrating with the ref.

Re: Ronaldo
 

i don't think cristiano's name would've been mentioned if he didn't go over to the ref. that's the only reason why rooney is getting away with it in the media

or dive.

Re: Ronaldo
 

He ain't world class, he could learn a lot from people like Ronaldinho, Henry and even Giggs, not just how to be a better footballer either, the jumped up little S**t, he should count his lucky stars if they let him back into Old Trafford even before this latest incident with his team-mate.

Re: Ronaldo
 

cos he doesn't play in england, so no one really cares. it's like messi being rated higher than tevez just because he plays in europe

Re: Ronaldo
 

*cough adriano *cough

Re: Ronaldo
 

well technically he didn't actually say he was world class

---------- Post added at 19:51 ---------- Previous post was at 19:51 ----------

when adriano can be considered a "world class" player, then you can use him as an example :)

Re: Ronaldo
 

the same ronaldinho who has done naff all at this world ? he has been so poor even if he has been played out of position....

hes 21 nobody is world class at that age plus i never said he was directly :p:


henry has always been worldclass even when he was a lanky 14 year old :D

giggs has been past it for afew year now.

he was playing for his country, he knows rooney and his trick worked although not sportsman like it was a tactic rooney fell for it, its rooneys fault.

Re: Ronaldo
 

Henry showed a lot of class when he tried to get Puyol sent off. How is that different from what Ronaldo did? Even worse if you ask me as Henry tried to con the ref that Puyol had elbowed him in the face.

Re: Ronaldo
 

Who else was he refering to then

Re: Ronaldo
 

The ballerina run 40 yards to the ref and got our Rooney booked.

PS It is true that Ricardo Carvalho has been prescribed Viagra after Rooney trotted on his private parts?

Re: Ronaldo
 

he wasn't referring to cristiano as world class.

---------- Post added at 19:57 ---------- Previous post was at 19:57 ----------

IIRC, rooney was sent off for stamping.

---------- Post added at 19:58 ---------- Previous post was at 19:57 ----------

not forgetting how gracious he was in defeat in paris

Re: Ronaldo
 

well i think he is even if he has a short fuse, i cant find his international goal scoring record but it is impressive, if i could remember the figures :D

---------- Post added at 20:01 ---------- Previous post was at 20:00 ----------

yes i saw that too :(

Re: Ronaldo
 

If I remember correctly last time he scored, he was accused of rape....

Re: Ronaldo
 

:rolleyes:

yes and so were some premiership players...

Re: Ronaldo
 

Henry and Giggs would teach him about loyalty more than anything and imo playing for your country should not be sullied by such tactics and yes before you ask I would not be happy if English players did the same, even if it ment we won more matches he should remember that you always get your cumupance, maybe people won't be so sympathetic next time he gets a kick in the thigh. I did not see this elbow so I all I'll say is that is not really on and it's up to FIFA to punish him now.

Re: Ronaldo
 

And proved innocent.

I'm sure if you want to drag up the past there is plenty the England team have been involved in, such as the guy many are suggesting to be your next captain making airplane noises and impressions to American tourists the day after 9/11?

Re: Ronaldo
 

fifa punish cristiano ronaldo for what .... baiting ? card waiving ?

Re: Ronaldo
 

No I was actually talking about Henry elbowing Puyol

Re: Ronaldo
 

oh right :D

Re: Ronaldo
 

for headbutting Rooney!!

OK Rooney did crush some plums, but if the Argie ref had done his job properly and blown the whistle while the two Portugese player where trying to pull him done Rooney wouldn't have acted the way he did.

Re: Ronaldo
 

Henry didn't elbow anyone. During the match Puyol went to tackle Henry, it was a firm tackle and Puyol's arm was clearly across Henry's chest. Henry then fell to the floor clutching his face as if he had just been elbowed.

Re: Ronaldo
 

well technically rooney still had possession of the ball, so he was probably(and rightly) playing advantage

Re: Ronaldo
 

Ronaldo had better seriously think about not entering England again the English will be baying for his blood.

Re: Ronaldo
 

yeah, that's the problem with english fans

don't take it quite as seriously as perugia's management though :)

Re: Ronaldo
 

Now that was bad, I am sure what they did is illegal :td:

Re: Ronaldo
 

I guess Petit (or Armando GonÃÃâ€*’§alves Teixeira - for Timeless Stew ;) ) better hope Benfica dont get drawn against an English team. :)

Re: Ronaldo
 

Rooney, in tears and raging, told fellow players in the dressing room: "I can never play with him again. I am going to f****** sort him out."
