Other clubs transfers 2021

[Bruce Wayne]

Ronaldo won't steal significant minutes away from Sancho, at least you wouldn't think so. Ronaldo is a poacher now, he doesn't do much running anymore so find it hard to believe he's suddenly going to start rinsing people down the wing as if it was the mid-late 2000s again.

That's one of the differences between current day Ronaldo and Messi. Messi is still the heart and soul of every team he plays for, everything runs through him because his overall game/skill set is still complete. Ronaldo on the other hand has transformed himself into a ridiculously clinical striker/poacher who will often remain uninvolved in a match until he gets his chance and inevitably slots it.

Which is why Juve aren't really unhappy to lose him. You'd be pretty miffed if you were Greenwood though. Starts the season well when given the chance for an extended run and then Ronaldo comes in to take your spot.

Great to see him back in the Premier League too.

Say what you want about him, but he’s a fantastic player.

Alright, his Adams apple is too big

 

[Brownie]

I think it's poor from Ronaldo and Man United to be honest. He left them to spend the prime of his career at another club, then graces them with his presence by returning at the end of his career.

Dunno how good he is in real life, but Spurs buying Ilaix Moriba from Barca for 20mil - turns into one of the best players in FM.

Mind, you'd think better teams than Spurs would be after him if he was that good. Still, that would be two highly-rated 18 year-old centre mids signed for them this summer for decent money.

I think it's great! Let's face it. Football needs guys like Ronaldo and here he is in the UK again.

He'll take the Prem to the cleaners! Not us I hope.

Rooney was a genetic freak though who peaked earlier than just about every player ever. He was playing full seasons at the age of 16, granted he didn't look after himself that well and lacked the professionalism of Ronaldo but he was always going to fall off sooner than Ronaldo given his body type and style of play.

Firmly believe Rooney was 26 when he was "16" and is now somewhere in his mid 40's.

37 before the seasons out Ronaldo but it's mad how many players are going deep into their 30s now.

 

[Toffee-nerd]

He's still a brilliant player. I'm actually excited to see him back in the league as he's one of the best ever. They've had a strong window. Chelsea and united have added in the right areas, they are both going to be immense this season.

Pharmacy and medicine are evolving. Besides, nowadays it's hard to be a top player if you have Maradona's lifestyle.

 

[gonetomorrow]

He'll get 25 goals providing he doesn't get crocked.

 

[n01efc]

It’s fantastic to see Ronaldo back, purely on the basis Utd are likely to finish above the red [Poor language removed] which will annoy them

 

[kenada_blue]

Why?. Sancho isn’t a striker.

There's only two spots either side of him...Rashford comes back...that's one left. So it'll be Martial, Greenwood, Sancho battling for one place (unless Martial leaves) or Cavani plays up top and Ronaldo floats across the wide areas.

Bottom line...it's gonna be tough him getting into that team now.

He couldn't run with the ball by time he hit 30 either.
