Yup, but as he had to come back to Man U after the cup it would have been nice for Man U to stick up for their player that was being ferociously attacked by a bitter English media.
Why should Ronaldo be expected to stick by a "team" and a "club" that kept quiet whilst his name was dragged through the mud within the country he plays in; whilst he is abroad doing his best for his country?
Do you think Ronaldo was planning on leaving Man U before the dogs that call themselves fans of football set upon him?
