That's what I think.
If he is going to go, let him go now, otherwise this saga will continue and get very tiresome.

With a bit of luck he'll do a Ronaldinho and his form will drop like a stone around that time, his stock value will drop too and Real's interest will cool. Suddenly staying at United will seen like a very attractive option and he'll sign a new contract.

If his form doesn't drop too much it won't be that big a problem for me. He's the best player in the world, so i think i can live with the papers constantly saying he wants out. I don't mind if his price drops from now to the end of the season if we get another good season out of him.

Yes I think you've hit the nail fairly square on the head there. I thought he'd go now to be honest, but I think he's definitely going to go at the end of next season. I wonder how the fans are going to react to him? I suppose if he plays like he did last season then it'll be forgotten quite quickly.

but C_R if there is 1 fangroup more hypocryt its those of ManUre, after the Worldcup 2006 when Rooney got sent off due to Ronaldo afterwards the fans celebrated him again.

Well I agree that a lot of Man United fans are a bit odd, so many support them and they are the best team - it can't be a coincidence! I disagree about Ronaldo getting Rooney sent off though - he blatantly stamped on someone and has nobody to blame but himself.

Fans of other teams are a bit odd...they do seem pre-occupied with what Utd do, more than what their own teams do at times

come on man city...trust me with mark hughes on his high heels toppling over our thai presidents money...man city will be fourth (they better be)....just watch out for Jo, Bojinov, Johnson, Petrov, Elano, Benjani with a stready defence and many more world class signings...man city gonna rule the country...soon lol

Corluka is set to join Spurs according to some (Crotian media mainly, but rumours still persist in British media)

Also considering Thaksin's fortune has been frozen, Hughes doesn't have much to trip over. It looks like Man City will flogged off cheap as he needs every buck he can get atm.

That is how the league could of ended if the scores remained unchanged for the second half. Brum must of really screwed up after half time.

you do realise that not all man u fans think ronny got rooney sent off? ronny was made the scape goat as there is always someone to blame for our failing team (eg mclaren)

how many liverpool fans were ****ed off with england players yet celebrated gerrard's free kick the next game? now people will say the free kick will show gerrards quality but to me it makes the old question 'why don't englands players play like they do for their clubs?' appear once again.

he only ever had one reserve game for us so never saw him play but seems he had a future in the game so in one way its good to see the hard work he had put in to get that far is being rewarded
