Ronaldo off to Real Madrid
The owners of Manchester United have reportedly accepted an offer for Ronaldo. Sounds like £80 from Real Madrid.

re: Ronaldo off to Real Madrid
£80 million is a lot of money, we can get 2 or 3 good players with that money and hopefully not miss him too much on the pitch.

re: Ronaldo off to Real Madrid
Manutd.com also reporting it was was at his request, so its yet again for the 3rd/4th ? season in a row he has requested to leave.
I think the only difference this year is that Madrid have actually put down an offer 1st !

they'll have to get 10-15 goals each to replace him. Should make next season even closer.

Re: Ronaldo off to Real Madrid
He's not going to be easy to replace, but I suspect Fergie has been aware of this for a couple of months and will have something up his sleeve.

Even as a hardened United fan - you just can't knock £80 million for a player.
Great player, done a superb job for United but time to move on and pocket the cash. A joy to watch (also a pain in the backside at times when he has his strops on the pitch)
£134 Million in 4 days on 2 players by Real - Credit Crunch my arse!!!!!

When he's not rolling on the floor or letting the team down.
Great player when he tries but @ even £50mill you would be crazy to hold on to him.

re: Ronaldo off to Real Madrid
I did ask for a thread title change in my 2nd post. I realised as soon as I'd posted that I'd dropped one on the title
