Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by GBR1(m): 10:58pm On Feb 27, 2016 |
Dadehmola:Yes the goal against roma and his recent under-performance against atletico have not been included. They could be regarded more or less negligible. weedtaker:I think i have given answers to this already. He's not needed at united at this moment, especially when there a lot of other factors to consider. |

GBR1:well, me thinks otherwise.. Anyways na ur own opinion, i won't force u to see things my own way. |

INTERVIEW IN FULL QUESTION: Today you may have been a little better than Atletico but you ended up losing 1-0. RONALDO: “I don't know if it was about luck, but we had more chances and deserved to win. But football is like that, we didn’t win, we knew the league was complicated and now it will only become more and more difficult. “But we have to continue, there is still a very important competition out there, the Champions League, and we should not give up.” Q: The change in dynamics in Madrid is worrying, what is going on? Does it have to do with the trainer? Or an attitude problem? RONALDO: “I do not want to belittle any player at Madrid, because all the Madrid players are good. But if we do not have the best players it is hard. “We don't have Karim, we don't have Bale, we don't have Marcelo, Pepe, and it is difficult. I'm not saying that those who played are not as good but the best are always important in a team. “I don't know if it's down to bad luck since the start of La Liga, we are having a lot of injuries. It hurts us, principally in the away games, and we have paid for it. We have dropped a lot of points, against Barcelona and Atletico themselves. It is an issue that is complicated. The league is practically lost, it is a fact. “Obviously we are going to fight until the end of the season but it is tough, however we still have the Champions League which is a different competition, we are excited. We are going for that and we will see what happened.” Q: But apart from the injuries, the team are not playing well... RONALDO: “No, I don't agree with your analysis. The team looks good to me, maybe in some games less so, but I think the team is better than what it was.” Q: Madrid have a great squad, 22 magnificent players. Why is that not seen on the field? RONALDO: “That's your point of view, but I don't share it. “As I have said, I will repeat, we should not belittle anyone but if a team does not play with the best, it is difficult. It is tough to win a long competition. I don't know what the reason is but it is hard, I like to play with Karim, for example, and when he is not there it is difficult. “I like to play with Bale and when he is not there it is difficult. “I like to play with Marcelo, when Marcelo is not there it is difficult. Danilo today was the best on the field but over the course of the season, it is difficult because the best players are the best across the season, almost always. “That's not to say that Jese, Lucas, Kovacic aren't good, they are very good. It is my point of view.” Q: Can you see any explanation for so many injuries? RONALDO: “I do not know the explanation, but it is a fact, and it should be said. I don't know why, it could be from preseason. But I do know that the guys who aren't here are very good.” Q: The Ronaldo that Real Madrid fans most like to see is the one who played against Roma, grabbing the ball and going straight at the defence. But why have we not seen that Ronaldo against Malaga, or today, or at Betis or Granada? You said it, since the best aren't there... RONALDO: “The others are having a great season and I am very close to them. If I am so bad, like you guys say all the time, I haven't seen in the Champions League either anyone close to me. “It annoys me because it seems like it is a prejudice you guys have against me. If everyone was at my level we are first. “You guys are unfair a lot of the time, you ask me really hard questions. You are always questioning my talent here in Spain. It seems like I am shit, but the numbers do not lie, statistics never lie. Look at the statistics, it's easy.” Q: But the Real Madrid fan does not see it the same way, they ask if there is a magic button which makes the team play well in the Champions League when in La Liga they play badly. You are playing badly in La Liga. RONALDO: “Well I am not of the same opinion, I don't see the team playing badly. “Now, if you tell me that they are doing worse in terms of spirits in La Liga, that's a different matter, yes. If you are nine points behind, playing with all the pressure it is complicated, because in the Champions League the team have played well. Then you say, you cannot think like that. No, we cannot. “But subconsciously it is different, you are playing a different competition like the Champions League, you start from scratch like all the other teams, and in the league you are down nine points. That is also different.” Q: *Last question inaudible* RONALDO: “Maybe we can, I have said before that it is a competition we can win, we are starting from scratch like every team. But I have said it once and will repeat, you cannot win a competition like the Champions League without the best players.” http://m.goal.com/s/en-ng/news/4055/main/2016/02/27/20786332/in-full-ronaldos-rant-after-real-madrids-defeat-to-atletico

^^^^^^ I no come see the alleged bombardment by Ronaldo to his teammates.... An attempt to turn his teammates against him or paint him arrogant??... Someone should explain to me please. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 11:41pm On Feb 27, 2016 |
He clearly stated that he would have loved to play with Bale, Marcelo always. He blamed the league struggle on injuries. He said they don't have Karim, no Bale, no Pepe, no Marcelo. Compared to Messi who has Neymar and Suarez always there playing at almost same level....... Ronaldo knew what he was saying. He was right. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elrony(m): 11:50pm On Feb 27, 2016 |
elampiro:I tire o.... The way he got blasted from different sides just got me wondering and looking for the alleged ridicule he made of his teammates... |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Dadehmola: 11:54pm On Feb 27, 2016 |
elrony: Here you are... Ronaldo: After realizing his foolishnes, he made an utterly weak attempt to save face.. Ronaldo: ....only to slight the rookies/youngstars yet again. Ronaldo: After which he made this lame attempt to save face again... Ronaldo: Ronaldo is a disgrace!! 1 Like |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by GBR1(m): 11:56pm On Feb 27, 2016 |
elampiro:I knew you'd say this but he is far from being right. I think no one is trying to say that he should carry Real Madrid entire season all alone, but his team has needed him this season a lot and he hasn't been there as much as his reputation and his paycheck suggest. There's some valid criticism against his performances and even if Madrid had the front 3 fit all along the season they could be a little far from Barcelona, who also lost Messi for a stint, Neymar too, Rafinha, Turan, Aleix, Alba. I would buy his arguments if we were in April and Madrid had just lost their chances because they were beaten by good teams while playing Jese, LV, Kovacic and all of those, but they're in this mess in February having dropped points against Sporting, Malaga, Betis. They even had their best 11 against Sporting! they also delivered poor performances against Granada, Celta with 10 man, Valencia. It's better not to tell of what happened against Barcelona(who were without messi for a while) with their 11 best players Anyway, there's a part of his comments that the media isn't mentioning enough, the one where he says "I don't know, maybe it's because the work we did at the preseason and the start of the season", he might be trying to protect Zidane while continue to blame Benitez, and while Benitez has a rather large body the time will come when this "sield" will crack. Benitez is gone, Real, James and Ronaldo "resurrected" at least 3 times under Zidane's management and today the team, Ronaldo included, looked as clueless as 2 months ago. So there's no way to defend this guy. 1 Like |

elampiro: Read the 1st interview - You go see say the follow up na damage control! |

Dadehmola:Even Kanye would be proud of those quotes. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 12:14am On Feb 28, 2016 |
FloP is the number one problem of Madrid. They should also get rid of Ronaldo. He is too selfish and arrogant. Watch him as he wld wanna score all the goals for Madrid so he can win the pichichi. He care less that Madrid is third place, after all there's a pichichi award waiting for me. When a teammate acts like this in a team sport, it becomes a problem especially if its coming from your star player with fat wages and also your assistant captain. Very very terrible |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elrony(m): 12:18am On Feb 28, 2016 |
Dadehmola: Lol... so Adeyemi's posted interview isn't that authentic or what?... cos that was what I peeked through at first before commenting on the status quo. Could it be a case of misinformation (misinterpreted speech)... or just the Portuguese ego redundancy? |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elrony(m): 12:35am On Feb 28, 2016 |
weedtaker: Quite alright that we need world class attackers (not only attackers tho).. Before we should think of signing any superstar or quality player....Man Utd must sack LVG the super dunderhead and his mediocre players first!!! else........ |

If we face Arsenal without De Gea,Smalling and Martial who are without a doubt our 3 best players for this season we might be in for a very long 90minutes. My main hope lies in Arsenal's tendency to shoot themselves in the foot and not our own play. |

afrodoc2:oga doc, chilL, we've got Memphis, so no shaken |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc2: 7:22am On Feb 28, 2016 |
weedtaker: Memphis has to play with consistency,confidence and intelligence against QUALITY opposition. He will be facing Bellerin who is quite intelligent and quicker than him, so he has to give him both the inside and outside moves and mix his shooting and crossing/passing plays. I am a bit worried in the long term about Adnan and Andreas Perreira 2 youth team players with great talent and potential who appear to be stagnating. Memphis,Perreira and Adnan lining up behind Martial has the potential of wreaking havoc for a decade. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 7:23am On Feb 28, 2016 |
“I do not want to belittle any player at Madrid, because all the Madrid players are good. Media are just making it up, this is exactly the way they twisted LVG's word "h.orny" as if he only discusses sex with his Players! “We don't have Karim, we don't have Bale, we don't have Marcelo, Pepe, and it is difficult. I'm not saying that those who played are not as good but the best are always important in a team. Barcelona without MSN is more or less like Okomu Oil United! Fact! He needs the mentioned Players on the pitch to perform wonders and score goals! “No, I don't agree with your analysis. The team looks good to me, maybe in some games less so, but I think the team is better than what it was.” Can someone explain what else he should say to show respect for his Colleagues?! “The others are having a great season and I am very close to them. If I am so bad, like you guys say all the time, I haven't seen in the Champions League either anyone close to me. He was frustrated at the Media jibes on him every time, however the Media re-directed his frustration to his Teammates!
