EVILFOREST:

How many did RONALDO DE LIMA carry, yet he emerged one of the best players in the World today..
Even better than CR7..?
Must one carry everything...?
Even PELE, the god of soccer didn't lift every trophy.
MARADONA didn't...
Not even Ronaldinho...who lost Olympic Gold Medal..
stop ranting.. 153m a day for a player like Messi at 33+? With how many goals in laliga last season?

The notion that clubs recoup transfer money from shirt sales is fallacy. The money from shirt sales goes to the kit makers, Nike, addidas and Co. Clubs only receive about 15% from the total amount.

Then you don't know anything about football.
Let him get to city, I promise you that within a week his jersey sales will break records, endorsements will come in for city, all attention will be gotten with money.

Some people always think they know more than the club that wants to buy him. When Juventus were buying Ronado, we didn't hear all this talk of his age and bla bla bla. Now that it's mercy, Ronaldo fan boys will not allow us hear word.

Of course Man City know that he's not young, so they know why they're buying him. Even at his age, he's still better than most footballers in the world and his name alone will rake in millions in revenue for Man city through Jersey sales and endorsements.

Let it rest.
more volume pls let penaldo fans let me hear word

U are very smart and logical...these messi fans are just street agberos

That's my problem with most footballer fans, they don't read articles and journals to know how things work.

Most of the players who force their transfer with total disregard to their mother clubs do not perform well for the new club.
U are right guy.
But the thing is for the club to respect his decision just the way Madrid did with Ronaldo, so that there will be harmony between two of them. (it's hard seeing him no more as a Barça fan but we must not forget that only change is constant.)

Lol, which jersey sales? Mate do some readings and educate yourself.

The jersey sales you are talking about, most fans would actually buy a jersey for the new season, only difference is that a greater number will opt for the one with Messi at the back. Which endorsements? Apart from image and TV rights, Man City have already signed contracts with different brands and won't revoke or automatically review these contracts because they signed Messi.

Again, do some readings bro.

In fact, lemme provide screenshots and links for your education.

I'm a messi fan but if messi leaves barca ,barca will rise again .messi does not help defensively and its killing the team and secondly he is losing his pace making him short of point offensively
To even call yourself a messi fan, am disappointed in you.

People like u resort to insult to pass ur message.
Barca has 5 UCL
How is Ronaldo UCL more than 4?

Barca has 5, Yes. but Messi has 4 only
Ronaldo has 5 Champions league trophy..so check again.
He has same amount of champions league with Barca that has existed for over 80 years....Shame!

But Messi has it more than every EPL team except Liverpool. If that isn't shame as well then keep saying he can't perform in EPL.

U guys wanted him to test other leagues or EPL before u can accept him as the best.

Now the guy is willing to come to Man city and you folks won't allow us hear word concerning the transfer fee and turn urself to Man city financial adviser or start telling us he is declining.

Let the guy come and prove you wrong.

If he fails to perform u can come here and show your badbelleism

What trophy has Ronaldo added to Juventus that dey haven't been winning before he came.
Even the copa Italian that dey have been winning before he came as dried up for 2 years In a row.
Ronaldo isn't the reason behind Juve's success.

In recent years Barca had won La Liga and copa del Rey.
Infact this is the first time in 7 yrs dey have gone without a trophy.

The difference is that he has just completed 2 yrs at a new club and league...he won CL 3 times in the past 5yrs and one euros coupled with the nations league... messi has nothing to show for the same number of years cr7 won those titles apart from league and copa de rey ...cups ronaldo also won during this same time ... when ronaldo was messi's age ...he was done with 3 consecutive CL titles

U c y they say messi fans are hypocrites...they mention that Ronaldo is only about goal scoring but also challenge when last he won golden boot like messi... ronaldo fans care more about important goals and titles... ronaldo compliments his goals with important trophies... messi only has individual achievements in spain alone... only one top scorer in Cl in 5 years...only bullies small teams in spain to achieve golden boot , but finds it hard to do it in the CL cos chairman play the CL
